POSITION DURING SLEEP.
Slightly Raise the Head and Lie on
the Right Side.

The main object of sleep Is that every
organ of the body should have perfect
rest The brain, the lungs and the
heart have been, not appropriately,
called the tripod Of life," as upon
them hangs the prosperity OF the whole
frame; hence we slightly raise the
head to check the flow of blood tC the
brain and more or less quickly find out
the position of greatest ease for lungs
and heart
This will be found by sleeping for
the greater part of the time on the
right side, for nearly two-thirds of The
heart is on the left OF the medal line,
and the apex points closely to the
smaller left lung; hence the fullest and
freest play possible should be given to
the left side.
a quiet pulse, diminished espira-
ton and refreshing rest are all COM
blned when open windows, moderate
warmth and unchafing heart work to-
gether 1t is often best to court sleep
on the left side and turn to the right
before going off.

THE ONION CURE.
A Remedy which Is Claimed to he
InfnlIible In Pneumonia.

AhIuilibie IN Ineu"ouia.
This remedy, which is claimed to be
infallible, was formulated many years
ago by well XII wn physician in New
England who never lost n patient by
this scourge: Take six or ten onions,
according to size, and chop fine. Put
In large spider over a hot fire, add
ing about the same quantity Of rye
meal and vinegar to form a stiff paste.
Stir thoroughly and simmer five or
ten minutes. Put into cotton bag
large enough TO cover the lungs and
apply to the chest just as hot as the
patient can bear it. In about ten min
utes change the poultice, and thus con-
tinue reheating and applying, and In n
few hours the patient will be out of
danger. And just here a word Of eau
ton. In applying this or any other hot
poultice care must be exercised not to
let the patient get@chilled during the
changing process. Have the hot one
all ready to go on before the cooling
one is removed, and make the ex.
changes SO swiftly and deftly that
there Is not a moments exposure OF
the body surface, which becomes ex'
ceedngly sensitive to a chill.

Shakespearean commentators have
wondered why the poet placed the
scenes Of Hamlet" at Elsinore, in the
island OF Zealand, whereas the Danish
prince lived and died in Jutland. But
the municipal authorities at Elsinore
discovered in their archives that an
English company was acting in their
town in 1887 or 1888, and among the
names of the actors are several of those
who were acting with Shakespeare in
London in 1899. Obviously these ac-
tors must have talked about their ad-
ventures IN Denmark, and so Shake
speare became well acquainted with
Elsinore and when he wrote Hamlet
naturally placed the scene IN place
which he knew by description rather
than in a place Of which he knew moth

BALL GOWN MADE
OF STARS IND STRIPES
American Wife of British Army
Officer Displays Her Ma
tiOnal COlors.

LONDON. March 26.-Mrs. Jaffray. wife
of Capt. Edward Jaffray, of the British
army, and one of the most charming Amer
leans in English society, has adopted a
unique and picturesque method of proclaim
ing her nationality and devotion to the land
of her birth, despite the fact that she is
married to an Englishman.
At the fancy dress balls and dances
which she attends the dominant feature of
her costumes, though strikingly varied, is
always the colors of her country. it is said
that. no matter how brilliant may be the
ballroom gowns, Mrs. Jaffray's, with it's
blaze of stars and stripes, cleverly and
gracefully arranged, always makes a dis
tinctive note in the dazzling scene.
Before her marriage Mrs. Jaffray was
Miss Mary Jaffray, and saved herself the
inconvenience of having to change her
name by marrying an English cousin. Her
mother was Miss Smyth, of New York.
Although not numbered among the great
hostesses of London, Mrs. Jaffray, because
of her wit and beauty, is a welcome guest
at most of the fashionable functions. She
is tall and dark and therefore the star
spangled banner style of drapery becomes
her admirably. With her husband she oc-
cupies very comfortable house in Sussex
place, Hyde Park.

Gated To-day, of more than a dozen young

There were three until quite recently,

plants for marriage. another has taken TO
convent life and the third has entered upon
duties as lecturer at school of hOrticul-
ture.

pupils than ladies'" said the curator at
Kew Gardens, but feared the move

dener came to us at a weekly salary of los,
and one of our pupils even obtained post
as subforeman at 2is. The ladies were most
enthusiastic at lectures and, while the
men went to sleep, they made voluminous

tors stated plainly that the day of the

There is not a rumor of single private
ball or festivity for the coming summer
On the last day of May is the first large
and elaborate fete Of the season. organized
by Princess Christian in aid of the ST.

This is the Living Bridge" tournament al

Lady Ancaster has arranged to have her
annual fete in aid of the Society for the

at the Albert Hall instead of the Botanical

dances of birds and animals. The concert

lows on June 3, and then comes ball at the

of the fetes of the summer will be a three

This will take place at the Albert Hall
