The minority leader in the lower
house OF Congress while talking
politics in an interview with late
Carew of the st. Louis Post Dipatch,
the other day, gave the following
answer to the question as to how
the Democratic party expected to
win in the next campaign:
"By building firmly on the foun-
dstion of the safe and sane Demo.
cracy," he replied cheerfully. "By
dlscarding and regulating all dubi-
Gus, dangerous and demogogic
theories, abandoning all uncertain
ties, striking out all feeble make
shifts of policy AMI convincing the
country that it can look TO the Demo
cracy fora sound, sober, economical,
business-like, patriotic, high-minded
government in the interest of all the

As a wise and extremely brilliant
politician, Mr.. Williams presents,
Of course, the only seasonable propo-
sition upon which there can be based
the slightest hopes for winning

more ingenuity than that promised by
any combination possible TO convince

ing more and more accustomed TO

HOWE ITS PROBLEMS AND INTERESTS
HINTS ON SLEEPING
Lie on the Right Side in Well venti-
lated Room.

Few people remember that the atti-
tude of the body in sleeping has a di-
rect influence upon the heart, lungs.
and digestive organs.
The carriage of the body while awake
is also largely affected by its position
during the third or more OF the day
spent III sleep.
One should always sleep on The right
side The body should be extended to
its full length, and the head thrown well
back The left arm should be thrown
as far back as possible, thus expanding
the chest
When one lies on the left side an
unusual weight comes just over the
heart which should, OF course, be left
as free as possible.
Never sleep with the arms extended
above the head, or the limbs drawn up,
for this interferes with the clrcula ton.
1t is also mistake TO lie on the sto,n-
ach. for this tends to crarap the heart
and digestive organs.
The low.s- the pillow the better High
holsters hcld the head at an unusual
angle. Many people are made round
shouldered by using too hign pillows.
The habit of sleeping with the head
al such an angle is soon acquired To
cure ones self it is well to reduce the
height of the pillow gradually.
1t is not enough to ventiiate the sleep
ing room at night and in the morning.
Drafts of air should pass through it
freely througout the day and all night
long. Draperies and hangings about
the bed should be done away with, as
being likely 70 ,-oilect germs, which it is
difficult to remove. If one is afraid of
drafts a higher folding screen may be
placed about tire head OF the bed.
The rule OF simplicity should hold for
all the furnishings of the room. The
room should be comparatively cool for
a person of normal health, but the bed
should be provided with plenty of warm
coverings.
