POSITION I'M SLEEP.
Night Habits That Assert Their Do.
minion Over All Mankind.


There are few persons who can tell
offhand just what positions they as
sumo to invite sleep, and yet there is
not an individual in the world who has
not some trick Of distributing limbs
and trunk to insure slumber's blissful
spell which he practices unconscious
~. This is night habit as perpetual
and immutable under normal condi-
tons as the succession of the seasons.
No sooner are we really off to the land
of nod than the night habit asserts it's
dominion. Our hands and arms seek
the same parts of the bed or the same
portions of our bodies upon which they
have nightly rested since infancy. Our
feet and legs stretch at the same an
giles or loosely intwine in comfortable
relaxation, as commanded by uncon-
scious Will
1t is seldom of our own deliberate
volition that we place our bodies in
position for sleep, as you will find to-
night on going to bed if you remember
these words. In truth, if you do not
seek to combat the instincts you will
be surprised at the dispositions of the
various members involuntarily made
If you endeavor to sleep by new ar
rangepent of the body, you will also
be surprised by the revolt against
slumber which will surely ensue, but
even before the struggle is well begun
you will probably surrender and per-
init the all masterful night habit to re-
instate those little details of position
which long practice has made neces-
sary to your comfort.-Family Doctor.

This District Good 10 The Halls.

J.K. P. Hall, of Elk county, who re-
signed his seat in Congress last Monday
in order TO become a member Of the Stat,
Senate Of Pennsylvania on the first Tues
day Of next January, enjoys the some
what unique distinction OF being the
fourth meber Of one family elected to rep
resent the Thirty-eigh'h Senatorial dis
trict at Harrisburg since il was created by
the sppcrtionment act Of 1874. Three OF
these were brothers-John G. II VI, Har-
~ Alvin Hall and J. X. z. Hall-snd the
fourth was W. II. Hyde, their brother-in-
law. John G. Hall who died while abroad
in 1859. was elected in 1873 and served
eight years. being reelected in 1882.
Harry Alvin Hall was chosen in 1899, and
resigned in 1898, to accept the appoint
ment of Urited States district sttorney
for the Western district of Pennsylvania
under President Cleveland. He was sue
ceeded by W. h. Byde, a brother. in-lsw,
since deceased, who was elected to the
short term in 1898, and for the iull term
in 1894. Now ]. X. 2. Hall resigns FROM
Congress on being chosen for the four
year term, beginning with the approach
ing meeting OF the legislature. Should
he serve until 1905, the Hall family will
have represented the Thirty-eighlh dis
trict 20 years out Of the 81 which il will

IT looks very much as though Emperor
William would get his royal uncle, King
Edward the Seventh, into trouble. The
English people do not approve Of the
opera hutfe methods characteristic of the
German War Lord. Hippodrome DEM
onstrations, like that of the combined
English and German fleets against weak
and crippled Venezuela are hardly to be
tolerated, much less approved by the
pescticsl business-like Englishmen. The
commercial interests Of Great Britain are
too vast and dominating to stand the
menace ofroys fsds. The royal line OF
Hanover sax Coberg will be tolerated in
Great Britain only so long as the CONNER
cisl interests of the country are not en-
dsngered thereby. should the develop
ments OF the German English movement
disclose a scheme on the part of the busy
William to test the disposition Of the
United States to back up the Monroe doc
trine by force il necessary, there will be
something happen which will cause the
British government 10 diSavos and repu-
diSie the Germans purp Sc. In such
case William will subside or lose his
occupation.

The Cost OF Living.

TIE liberal section Of humanity which
hunts trouble and retai's it out for the
edifcalion of the world, is pro claiming
that although 1902 has brought to the
wage worker an increase OF wages, he is
worse off than before, because with pros
perity the cost of living has gone up.
Professor George Gunton. recognized
authority on all economic questions re-
lating 10 the cost Of living, and who has
given much study to the problem, is con.
WINGED that wage earners are much better
of than they were before the area Of pros
perity set in and that the highest cost of
living is more than offset by other con-
ditions. While it is true that meats and
some other food staples are higher than
they were during the period of depres-
sion, the increase in this direction is off,
set by lower prices in others.
AS proof that even the poor are not
suffering, we hear Of no cries for bread .
the soup houses are not open. As Prof
Gunton says:
IIOeptIltN Is uOb IntdsuIeu DN low
prices. People can probably buy supplies
in China or in India very much cheaper
than in any European country and still
very much below what they can be
bought for here, and yet the people of
those countries are among the poorest in
the world"
1t is conceded that this is the most
prosperous countr, on the lace OF the
globe; the American people certainly
live better than any other nation. 1t
seems strange that people will growl
about the most prosperous land on earth,
and fret and fume because conditions IN
their minds are not absolutely perfect.
Those who are not satisfied with America
should go abroad, and try to see if they
can better their lot. They will come back
thoroughly pleased with America.

Hannx Over Waae Increase.

Philadelphia. Dec. Is. - The train
men of the Philadelphia and Reading
Railroad company wers made happy by
reason OF the established fact that
an increase, averaging II per cent in
their salaries, has been officially
granted. These men have been on the
anxious bench since the officials and
employees in the clerical departments
were granted a similar increase. While
It was generally conceded that the
trainmen would share in the general
prosperity, nothing certain was given
out, Vice President Voorhees, declining
positively to state what would be done.
The increase amounts to at least 80
more per month to them.

STRANGE as it may appear, the people
Of the town Of Somerset do not seem to
he fascinated with the idea of having an
army post located near there. They are
signing petition to Congress in opposi-
tion to the bill now before that body 10
establish post on or near the site Of the
Second Brigade encsmpment couple of
years ago. 1t appears to be the feeling
Of the Somerset people that an army post
would disturb the quiet of the town and
demoralize thinp generally. Well, this
is all wrong. The Somerset folks are en-
titled to have their sca,e, however, and
there are plenty Of good places in Penn
sylyania for an army post without putting
it so close TO Somerset as to rub off the
bloom Of innocence Of that vicinity.
