The SLEEP CURE.

A good deal has been said about the
value of sleep for weary bodies and
brains, yet not half enough has been
said while so many thousand women
and children to say nothing of the
men folks, are using up just a little
more of their vital energy every day
than they manage to lay by for that
day, and sogradually exhausting their
balance" in the bank of health, until
some day, when some unexpected de-
mand arises, there comes a break
down, period of physical bank
ruptcy.
Another hour given to sleep, out of
every twenty-four, would probably
prevent more than half of these dis
asters, and yet how few people take
the full measure of Natures universal
remedy, which they need so impera-
lively, and might have simply for the
asking, or rather for the taking, with
out "by-your-leave" to anybody.
People have so little faith in nature
and in natures promptings. 1t seems
so much more "the thing" to take
somebody's "tonic" or rejuvenator,
or to try the water-cure, or the grape
cure, or the salt cure, or the move
ment cure, something that you can
take from bottle, or measure in a
spoon, or guage by thermometer. 1t
seems so ridiculously commonplace
and inadequate to simply go to bed
and go to sleep an hour earlier.
1t is popularly supposed to be encr'
waiting and stupefying to sleep great
deal. Perhaps that is what is the
trouble with the lions and tigers
Maybe the bears make a mistake II
their hibernating practices. Possibly
the birds would do better not to re
tire so early, or the flowers might bt
prettier if they kept awake all night
The strongest and brightest of Great
ures are good sleepers, and the night
providers are not exempt; they make
it up in the daytime.
There is a good deal in habit, ant
people often get themselves into ;
condition of chronic wakefulness b!
persistently denying themselves o
their needed sleep. But the othel
habit can be formed just as certainl!

SEVEN SEATS ON TWO WHEELS.

The largest bicycle in the world is a
septuplet or seven seated machine,
which has recently been completed by
a prominent bicycle firm in New York
state. When tandems and triplets
first made their appearance, there was
much astonishment when they proved
strong and reliable. Then came sew
eral quadruplets, later a quintuplet,
and finally three or four sextuplets.
Surely the limit had been reached!
The six-seaters were exhibited about
the country, and attracted a great
deal of attention.
Now comes the septuplet, which
has actually been ridden mile in
1:39 on a circular track. The new
marvel is 16 feet long, has a wheel
base of IA feet 6 inches, and weighs
14O pounds. It's gear is 100, about
twice as high as an ordinary bicycle
that is, it moves just twice as far for
single revolution of the pedals. The
makers argue that if bicycle geared
to siXty-eight can be ridden mile
under two minutes with comparative,
ease, there is no reason why the new
septuplet cannot be driven mile in
one minute fiat or less. But what
about the riders? Oan seven men be
found who possess the necessary
strength, endurance and courage to
undertake the feat? 1t is said that
sensation propelling the septuplet at
such a speed is heart-breaking. The
team which rides the huge machine
however, is made up of young men
who have had a great deal of eXper-
ience with multicycles and they are
confident that they can make in a mile
a minute. The big septulet is enamel
ed bright orange, the riders all
wear racing suits of the same color
and the effect is something startling
The accompanying illustration is an
exact reproduction of the photograph
taken by Arthur P, Yates, the official
photographer of the New York Cen
trail railroad, while the septuplet was
going at 1850 gait at KirlNwood Park
Syracuse, N. Y.

and a good deal more proftably-the
habit of sleeping early, or late or Of
ten, or all three.
An extra hour or two somewhere
during the twenty-four devoted to
sleep is the most precious means of
recuperation from the daily program
of the busy housekeeper, society
woman or business man.
There is almost always one mum
ber" that can be dropped, if they will
only think so, and it is better to ne
glect something every daythan every
thing some day-because one has
completely given out"
And sleep being the restorer and
replenisher of life's vital energy, it is
not enough to have barely sufficient
for each days requirements; the res
ervoir should be always full and am
ple against the droughty times OF
trouble and affection and unusual
care. There is no danger OF sleeping
tco much.

HONEST WORK.

1t needs to be proclaimed from every
house top and practiced by every parent
and teacher that amid all of our needs the
one supreme one is better work. Young
man, if you have an ambition and need
a world to conquer, begin heroically on
yourself and make yourself fit for some-
thing. Do some one thing well. Do it
well, whether you are under the eye Of
q master or not. Doit we'll if it is never
seen. Do it well if you get nothing for
it. Put conscience into every stroke,
whether the work be small or great. All
work is great that is greatly done.
