In factories about towns there are al
ways q few employees who come to be
known as whistle spltters." Their
splitting begins in the morning when
they cross the threshold on n run just
as the sound of the whistle dies out in
a sob. At noon they are out of the
door simultaneously with the first bow
ing of the whistle, ard at night they
have their coats and dinner buckets
all ready to be grasped as soon as the
whistle starts to blow. These men see
their fellows become foremen or get
better positions elsewhere while they
stay at the same old wages year by
year, because they are too mean TO
give the boss two minutes more of
their valuable time than he has paid
for. Every one in the shop knows the

after the incorporation of the society.

those two little screw thing a ma iigs
that go into the back of the frame at
the sides to put the cord through ?
Look them up for me; and I'll need the
gimlet to bore little hole for the
screws. Somebody get the gimlet. or
maybe can drive them in with ham,

get the hammer.
II don't know but chair will be
better than the step-ladder for me to

kitchen and get me a chair. l don't

chairs.

about the right length and fasten 1t in
those little things at the side
There, now, there's your picture all

To Overcome Insomnia.

A prominent New York physician,
himself sufferer from insomnia for
many years. has discovered n brand
new way of putting ones self to sleep
almost inStantancOusly. 1t has worked
well in his own case and never has
failed In the many trials he has made
upon his patients. After taking Il deep
inspiration the breath is held until pos
tive discomfort 1t felt. 1t Is then let
gently out. The process is repeated a
second and Il third time. and this Is as
a rule sufficient to obtain sleep. The
mind must be fixed upon the expert
ment and ones thoughts must not be
allowed to wander.
Insomnia is produced by two kinds Of
cerebral activity directly opposite In
nature, a too active cerebral circulation
and an insufficient cerebral circulation.
The former can easily be recognized
from the throbbing and pulsating AFTER
les. The self-asphyXiation of the pa.
tient causes Il flow of nervous blood
to the brain and an increase of the car
bonic acid and waste products of de-
composition. These products, carried
to the brain by the blood, overwhelm
Its centers and SO produce sleep
DR.. Johann Meuli-Ililtz, German
physician, writes enthusiastically
about the effect of sleeping with the
head low as means of obtaining the
most refreshing slumber He raises the
foot of the bed SO that it forms an in.
clined plane. He says that the sleep
thus obtained is more beneticial; that
one awakens with a clearer head, q
wider mental horizon. He asserts that
the neck Increases in size, that the Ger.
ebral circulation is improved and the
influence upon the lungs is so great
that 1t can lessen the tendency to con.
sumption. He recommends that the
lowering of the head be done gradually,
and says that insomnia often is caused
by sleeping with the head too high

A Filter for Ira

A simple pocket filter, which may
save cyclists and other travellers from
disease germs, is short rubber tube
with a mouthpiece at one end and a
wire netting at the other. Inside the
netting Is small portion of powdered
charcoal in Il little net coil. When the
charcoal end of the tube is inserted
in the water the germs are not allowed
to pass, and the charcoal frees the wa.
ter from all impurities which may be
contained In 1t. The tube acts as a
straw through which the water Is
drawn pure and clear. 1t is n con.
venient way to drink from brook
when riding through the country, and
the filter is great safeguard agains,
