The Proper Amount Of Sleep.

A proper amount of sleep is OF
course absolutely essential to con-
tinued good health, but if dietetic
habits are correct it is matter
which will regulate itself. If rule
is needed, one will follow naturally
from the fact that almost every one
feels languid on waking and is dis
posed to take another nap, no mat
ter how long he has been sleeping.
This is a morbid sensation which it
would take too long to explain here.
1t is enough to say that lack of sleep
should be made up, if possible, at
the beginning and not at the end.
The best general rule is to rise at a
given hour every morning, whether
tired or not, and 60 to bed when
sleepy.-Century.

Communication.
Morris, Mimi, Sept. IL 19O4

Morris, MINI, Sept. IL 1904.
Being one of the defeated can
didates in the late primary election.
l wish to say to the voters of Stevens
County that l take my defeat with
good grace, and will vote for my
opponent Mr.. Ray Roberts as the
accepted nominee of the republican
party, thanking my friends for their
kind support and aid. AS a citizen
we have nothing to say against Mr..
Roberts born and raised to manhood
in Stevens County. we believe that
he has many good qualities that are
commendible but as a party man.
it is my firm conviction that he is not
entitled to the supper of the republic
can party. At the last election Mr..
Roberts was an independent can
didate at the solicitation of Mr..
Richard Grace, who was the demo.
cratic nominee for County Attorney
thus advocating democrats princi.
pies. Mr.. Grace does not deny that
he urged Mr. Roberts to become a
candidate for no other purpose than
to assist the democratic nominee for
County Superintendent of Schools.
Mr.. Roberts expressed himself to;
one of my republican friends that he
became candidate at the request of
MI. Grace. Thus Mr.. Roberts
aided in the defeat of the nominee
of the republican party, Henry made
an honest fight, and won his laurels
in msnley way. The town Of Scott
and Pepperton supported Mr. Roberts
which are the towns in which he
resides. The republican votes went
to Mr.. Roberts. We stated to Mr..
King in the presenceof ore of the
oldest republican officers that he
would be defeated at the general
election, unless he could induce Mr..
Roberts to withdraw from the fight
and urged him to see Mr.. Roberts
for the purpose of Withdrawing.
Whether he did or not we do not
knew. Further Mr.. Roberts father
has been either a democrat or
populist all his life. radically op-
posed to republican principles. AS
far as we know Mr. Roberts relations
either by blood or marriage are not
republicans. F. K. DEMIHe.

badly that be was completely para

Testing Engines by Piano.

Pointing to a piano that was standing
in the locomotive %roundhouse near Kan
sas City, an English visitor remarked:
"Ah, see your road supplies you with
musical entertainment"
Guess not" replied the foreman.
THAT piano is for testing engines"
The E~nglishman thought it a joke, but
when a uniformed pianist struck a note
which h%armonized with the noise of
vibration in each part of the locomotive
as it was tested, he understood that
there could be no flaws or cracks in the
engine. He was informed that if the
noise of the locomotive made a discord
with the musical note the locomotive
would be thus proved defective. The
method has been discovered to be more
accurate than the old way of hammer
ing each part.

ROMANS USED SHORTHAND.
Greeks Also Were Familiar with Prac-
tice of Stenography-Dates
from 100 E. G.

The existence of stenography among
the Greeks and Romans is certain. The
letters of the alphabet. with modifica-
tons, connected so as to admit of great
rapidity of execution, formed the ele-
ments of these characters. They date
at least from the first century before
Christ. In the second century, A. d.
is found the term semeiograph (steno-
graphic ~characters) in the Greek ora
tor, Flavius Philostratus. Origen of
of Alexandria 0S5-254 A. d. notes his
ermon down in shorthand, and Soc
rates, the ecclesiastical historian of the
fourth century, says that part of the
sermons of st. John Chrysostom was
preserved by the same process.
In the first century, b. c., a discourse
of Cato Uticensis, according to Plu-
tarch. was taken down by shorthand
reporters. The development of short
hand was due specially to Marcus Tul-
nus Trio. Born in Latium in 103 B. C.
Trio, who was a slave, was brought I'D
with Cicero, who was some years his
senior. Freed. he became Cicero's sec
rotary, and in this capacity aided him
greatly. In the famous trial of Gait
line (63 B. c. the stenographic rapid
ity of Trio was at its height.
