FROM MARKEN ISLAND.

To miss seeing the island of Marker
would be to pass by one of the most
interesting spots in Holland. From
the moment one reaches the place it is
like living in a dream. Long lines OF
tall fishermen in baggy suits and the
fisherwomen in garb which no descrip-
ton can do justice, greet the eye.
Bright embroideries and gay cretOnnes
are favorite devices for celebrating the
attire. Up to the age of ) years boys
and girls are dressed alike. the only
distinction being a star, which the for

Do Your Laundry Work at Home-How
to Get the Best Results,

You should use the latest improved
Cold Water Laundry Starch for fine
work. keith's Enamel Starch gives a
most beautiful, clear, pearl-like finish,
and an elastic stiffness that will stand any
amount of bending. and an enamel gloss
that will stand damp, fogSy weather.
Will not blotch and will not stick TO
the iron. Can be used on black, red or
other colored goods without the faintest
trace of white, and on white goods
finishes whittier in color than any other
starch. 1t shows every thread of linen
thus giving a high polish and beauti-
full finish. Enamel Starch contains no
ingredients which can injure any fab
ric. Some think that the starch they
have been using is all right We used
to think the tallow candle gave a very
good light, but after using electric light
we wonder how we ever got along with
the candle light. 1t is the same with
starches; you have used the lump and
common cold water starches and made no
complaint because you have never had
the genuine Keiths Enamel Finishing
Labor Saving. Cold Water Starch. but
after you once get accustomed to using
II you will wonder how you ever got
along with the other starches. keith's
Enamel Starch Will do more work do it
with less labor and do it better than any
other starch. Ask your grocer for Keith s
Enamel Starch; a trial will convince you
that it is in every respect the most per-
feet starch made.

HOLD YOUR BREATH.
That's an Excellent Way i'm Which to
Induce Sleep.

How many people are there, particu-
fairly in these summer days. who. do
what they will. find that sleep refuses
TO come to them, and that they are
doomed to night of perpetual rolling
and tossing? Yet, according to a we'll
known New York physician, himself a
sufferer from insomnia for many years.
sleep can easily be summoned by Il
means within reach Of ALL The doctor
has tried his method on his patients
and, simple as it is, has never heard Of
its failing. Those who find themselves
eluded by sleep will do well to try it,
and for their benefit it is here given
The method is essentially one of self
asphyXiation; nevertheless, there is no
reason to fear, for there is no risk. In
deed, it is impossible to asphyxiate
ones self by this means The first
thing you have to do is to take a Ions
and deep inspiration. as much air be
ing drawn into the lungs as can be
borne with comfort. This air is retain
ed until positive discomfort is felt,

peat this process two or three times.
and the chances are you will forget all
else until you wake up from your
sleep the next morning. The eXplana-
tlon OF this is simple enough. Sleep is
due to hyperaemia of the brain. Dur
ing sleep there is a flow of nutrition to
the cerebrum; consequently an in

cles. The semi-asphyXiation brought
about by holding the breath keeps a
quantity of blood in the head. with a
consequent increased cerebral circula-
tlOn. That this is the case can easily
be proved by the increased throbbing
and pulsating of the arteries of the
head. Another point also to which the
doctor calls attention is the habit of
sleeping with the head too high. If the
head be kept low more refreshing sleen
is obtained. He raises the foot of the
bed, so that it forms an inclined plsne

ually as sudden change is likely to
nave an effect the reverse of that de-
sired. The sleep thus obtained is more
beneficial, and one awakens with a
clearer head and a wider mental hori-
zon. The neck increases in size. the
cerebral circulation is improved and
the influence upon the lungs is so great
hat it will lessen the tendency to con
sumption. A few more facts relating
to insomnia may be useful Physicians
are more and more arriving at the con-
clUsiOn that in the case of this disease
drugs are of little value, and many
times are worse than useless. General
ly some simple thing brings about re-
lief. If there are noises within the
house or outside cotton in the ears will
often be all that is required. One
should feign not to want to sleep, as it
is often fear of not being able TO sleep
that keeps a person awake. Then the
mind should not be allowed to concen-
trate upon a subject, and the stomach
should be treated to light repast be
