fall into the clutches of that awful
slaughterer Of rest-insomnia.
II may say that any man whose
nerves are particularly sensitive and
whose system is delicate enough to
respond to slight pressures will be
affected in the same way. The ordi-

changes in the weather. It would be
interesting if some man who is an ex-

definitely the relations between in.

conditions. Many variations would be
found. It would all depend on the
temperament of the individual. A great
many persons will be found who will
sleep heavily if the night becomes
suddenly little cold. Cold in such
cases aids sleep. In the cases of
other persons change of this sort

started to shoot and l made for the
bush faster than ever"
The man was greatly troubled
about his future course. His fellows
advised me to turn out with the crew
in the morning, as though nothing
had happened. He remembered the
revolver shots and thought it was
taking long chances, but finally de-
cided to risk it. The crusty old sur.
veyor did not refer to it in any way,
and as the fagman kept awake there
were no more. flying shots.

costume illustrates that fact and

wide frills of the material headed by
lace bands. The waist is one Of the
latest and is full and soft, made with
little square of lace at the Iront, and
is closed invisibly at the left of the
front. The bolero can be used or
omitted as preferred and is arranged
over it, the two being joined at the
lower edge. The skirt is circular with

beneath the upper row of trimming,
