For occasional victims of sieepless.
ness in ordinary physical health here is
a simple remedy that will he found offi.
cacious in probably five cases out Of six.
Do not attempt to stop the action of the
mind by one supreme effort of the will.
Do not try TO go to sleep or even think
about sleep. But stop making sentences.
A writer in Popular Science News gives
reasons for this advice as follows: As
every one knows, we think and remem-
Der In sentences. We must think. SO,
instead of trying not TO think, try the
possible and break up your thoughts, so
to speak, into words.
Take for example the first word that
comes into your mind We will suppose
II to be the word house. Presently an.
other word follows bat il this word
bears any grammatical or associative
relation to the word house, let it pas
out Of your mind without notice ana
take one Of different class-such
word, for example, as enthusiasm.
Now You have house, enthusiasm,
and you may add-not exerting the
will, remember, but waiting passively
for the words to present themselves
until your series swells out like this:
House, enthusiasm, Great Britain, walk,
90, tangible, beyond, superior, Washing
ton, etc. OF coupso you are to avoid a
| succession of names and numbers and
all classiflcations of words
AS the disconnected ideas flow ON in
your mind you will gradually find your
self taking mild interest in the dis.
jointed procession. You lose your agi.
tating self consciousness and fall into o
passive state In other words, you have
reduced the process of thinking to q
minimum. You wait with slender
thread of interest for the coming words,
knowing that twill mako no difference
what they are Perhaps you may feel
like one sitting on the bank Of river
listlessly watching the objects that float
on its surface. Now it will be leaf,
now block Of wood. But your leaves
and your blocks of wood all have words
written on them, and one after another
they appeal to your notice and then
| float away down the stream.
| By degrees the intervals between the
passing words lcnSthcn, syllables be-
come mixed, there is dreamy confusion,
with perhaps an incohoront fancy, aud

SENATE IN DARKNESS.
Went Through the Forms by Candle
Light.

One lone tallow dip, stuck on the
top of the speakers desk, shot its fail
ing rays into the cavernous senate
chamber last night, while the president
called the body to order for. perhans
the briefest session on record
In order to preserve the record 1t was
necessary to go through the forms
Chaplain Forbes offered PRAYER and
then Secretary Langum singed his evn
broWs IN the tallow dip as he Leaned
forward to call the roll. From the
gloomy corners of the chamber would
come the ayes now and then, but when
a member was silent the darkness
made the silence gruesome.
When number of senator's had been
excused, and the journal was approx
ed, one line Of it being read Senator
Greer sent resolution to the desk
which enlivened the proceedings some
what. 1t pertained to the judiciary
committee and was completely non
committal as to whether 1t was serious
or facetious.
The senator's resolution set forth that
whereas there were fifteen LAWYERS in
the senate, and seventeen places on the
Judiciary committee, and whereas there
were two lawyers in the Ramsey conn
ty delega ton, both Of whom had been
mentioned for the chairmanship of the
SAID judiciary committee, in order to
preserve harmony in the city. and at
the same time to grant all possible
protection to the country districts. he
1T therefore resolved that the president
Of the senate be instructed to present
theonames Of the old judiciary commit
tee1in alphabetical order and let the
committee select It's own chairman.

try more than 100000 children, and
society has at Hast awakened to the
fact that something must be done to
counterfeit the evil influences Of the,
street. Mr.. Savage said that in other
cities there had been no difficulty in
enforcing the curfew law. The viola
tons of the law had been very few,
and the people of the communities gen.
orally had approved and assisted in
enforcing 1t. In some respects, from
the standpoint of the theorist, the cur
few infringes on personal liberty, but
1t is necessary for the protection of
society. If the homes OF the children
are as bad for them as the street, then
we can take children from such homes
and place them where they will have
the proper influences.
f. l.. McGhee said that If the authori-
ties would give him a law that would
help the people of his race, that would
save the black boy and keep safe from
harm the black girl, he would eulogize
the trainers thereof even though it was
a curfew and infringed on the per-
sonal liberties of little children. There
were several other speakers, but as
the hour for adjournment had arrived
the discussion was declared ended for
the time, and the meeting dispersed.
