is vital, therefore, whether we regard
sleep as sheer rest or as activity of
many parts of us. including the spirit,
that sleep of the best possible quality
should be obtained somehow. Its i'm
portance may be over-estimated. Many

a city to start stopping and not do

Avenues To Rest.
First and foremost among the ave-
nues to rest comes the imagination of
sleepifying things-such as flowers or
children in repose or of repeated and
montonous things. One writer sug-
gests that we should imagine ourselves
marking out a law tennis court again
and again. Hundreds of other devices
some suiting you, others not suiting
you-belong to this class.
Rhythm seems to be OF the very es-
sence OF sleep, though there is no one
rhythm for all. Indeed, what is one
mans jerkiness may be anothers
rhythm. If you massage your head
for instance, by striking your forehead
from above the eyes over the head to
behind the neck-you should do II leis-
urely, and, as a general rule, rhythmi-
cally, together with rhythmical breath
ing, and suggest to yourself, confident
ly but courteously, that 1t cannot fail
TO send you to sleep. This may re-
store the cadence of slumber. For the
unrhythmical body is unlikely to be a
restful body. 1t Is quite conceivable
that rhythm somehow tends to draw
excess of blood from the brain. Ger
tainly IL Is partly for this reason that
water is an aid for many Some pre-
fer alternate hot and cold foot baths;
others the splashing of the face and
forehead with cold water for several
minutes. This seems to paralyze GER
tain nerves. And that is what many
drugs may do. The water treatment
is likely be preferable.

Alternate hot and cold foot baths
seem to work as n sedative among
other reasons they may take the excess
of blood from the brain to the feet.
one night also take 1t towards the
stomach by eating apple, lettuce, or
something else, or perhaps even by
slipping water. The lettuce has in 1t
certain opiate salt; so, l believe, has
the cucumber. Some prefer such things
raw; others prefer them cooked with
their juices. Here is a recipe that
might be good for most people. If any
