ness, but it will be more than compen.
stated for by the mental and bodily
condition that follows. Sit In an easy
chair. Lying down directly after a
meal crowds the digestive organs and
makes ones sleep restless instead of
restful. Rest the head comfortably.
Tip the chair to a pleasant angle for
the body, not enough to have the
weight OF the body on the back.
Place the feet on q chair as high or a
triie higher than the one upon which
you are sitting; cross the limbs at the
ankle joints. close the hands together
by interlacing the fingers, place the
aeshy part Of the thumbs together In
order to avoid grasping the hands too
tightly and close the eyes. Having
thus closed the circuit. it will be nee.
essary to relieve yourself of all nerv-
and muscular tension. Think only
OF your slow, measured breathing and

HER UP TO DATE ALBUM.
The Chicago Girls Travels Recorded
by Photographs Of Herself.

The Chicago girl hat knows her
businessman where is there Il who
doesn't?-has an album or card CASE
devoted exclusively to Il collection Of
pictures of the Il person whom she
thinks more of than ANYBODY else in
the world-namely, herA~f. There are
several laws regulating the collectio
Of a personal gallery Of this kind. In
the first place, no w pictures shall
be alike; what is equally important. nc
two shall be taken in the same town.
From a glimpse at this second condi-
ton. 1t is obvious that the young wo-
man who has a popular collection Of
her w photographs must be some
thing Of a traveller.
In order to give added interest to
this pursuit of herself in miniature.
each photograph is stamped in violet
inli, with the name Of the town where
taken, the name Of the artist and the
date Of the sitting. There are also
margins for recording any other Incl
dents connected with the occasion
that may be considered worthy Of
note.
In this way the business of photo
graph collecting is kept on a system
attic, methOdical basis. and the book Of
photographs becomes an abridged bio.
graphical history Of travels in an in
definite number Of chapters. 1t is
evident that the more pictures it con.
tains the more comprehensive will be
h text. hence the ambition Of every
young woman possessed with the craze
to become a globe trotter.
There are a few standard towns that
are absolutely necessary to the reputa
ton Of any album. such as Chicago,
New York, Niagara and the prominent
intermediate points. Beyond these,
the more distant and romantic the
places the greater the interest attach

Maryland supcrstition..

There are superstitions throughout
all the counties Of Maryland concern
Ing crossroads and running water.
Witches are supposed to make their
home at the crossing of two roads and
to appear there at midnight. One Pc
culiar thing about witches is that they
cannot get across running water. and
a stream Of any sort always acts as
q protection to the nightly prowler,
who will follow along the bank OF a
stream in preference to the road.
These are some Of the things which
are more generally believed in the
country around Washington and along
the eastern shore. Some Of the arti-
cles of the creed Of the superstitious
In that neighborhood are:
II you sweep your o At night.
you sweep away your wealth.
Never shake crumbs out Of a win
dow after dark. They are supposed
to fall into the eyes Of the Lord a =
to disturb the spirits Of the dead who
wander abroad at night.

which eggs have been boiled. You
are liable to become covered with
warts.-Baltimore Sun.
