jump in prices. The September option advanced q
points to 1920; October went up to 1045c, Novem-
Der to 1920 December to 1O.22c January to lo24c

port OF damage the crop in Texas. but several OF
the railroads which run through part OF Texas re
ported that far their advices stated the out

GETTING TO SLEEP.
Some Points About the Art of Woo
ing Peaceful SIumber.

Some Points About the Art of Woo
ing Peaceful SIUmber.
All conditions must be favorable to
sleep. The bedroom should be quiet,
dark and airy In winter it is better to
have the window away up than to shut
it so that Il knife edged draft shall chill
an exposed shoulder. The temperature
of the bed should be agreeable. Getting
to sleep when the feet are cold is as
slow a job as getting to sleep when
hungry. A hot water bottle in one case
and piece of bread and butter in the
other will help things. 1 leave it to you
to decide which is for which. A warm
bed in winter is easily got, but cool
bed in summer is not so simple propO-
sition. However, sheet made of straw
mating interposed bStween the regular
sheet and the mattress will be found to
mitigate sensibly the horrors of n hot
night 1t preserves rthe softness and
springiness of the bed and yet is pleas
antly cool. without being too cool. Per
sonally 1 find that sleep comes soonest
when 1 have no pillows at all.
The next thing is to relax utterly.
Remember that the corner of the jaw is
the citadel of tension. While that is
clinched no sleep can come. But most
important of all is the disposition of the
mind SO that sleep can come. The rea-
son why we fail in this is the same as
the reason why we fail in other things.
We do not very genuinely want to sue
coed. AS we lie stretched out after
busy day, there are so many thoughts
that we want to chase after that we
drop the notion of sleep, though we
know that tomorrow is another day on
which we can think. 1t is all very well
to say Dismiss these thoughts" How
to dismiss them is the problem that
each must soIve.-Harvey Sutherland
in Eyerybody's Magazine.

RInnk visitinr Cnrtnme.

An attractive black visiting costume
is built of fine plain and perforated
satin faced cloth. 1t has a circular
skirt with a yoke of perforated EN-
broidery. The pelerine is narrow over
the shoulders, the lower edge reaching
half way to the elbows. In the front it
falls in two loose points over the bust,
and in the back it continues in single
deep point to the waist line, where it
is attached to the belt with large pas
sementerie ornaments. The sleeves are
quite large and are gathered into big
ruffled cuffs edged with velvet. They
are entirely of the perforated cloth and
are slashed up the inside of the arm to
show a panel of black cluny lace.
There is a choker of the velvet.
