THE WAY TO DO 1T

Exercise three times a day;
Feed yourself on simple fare
Mostly made of bran and hay;
Revel in the open air;
Never give way to your fears;
Sleep just like baby;
Then you'll live hundred years
Maybe.
Wear no wraps about your throat;
DO not eat late lunches;
Do, oh! do not rock the boat;
Shy away from punches;
Do not drink too many beers;
Let not debts distress;
Then you'll live a hundred years,
More or less.
Don't dispute with men who wear
Larger fists than you;
Do not give way to despair,
Though the rent is due;
Do not waste your strength in tears;
AS for trouble, scout 1t;
Then you'll live hundred years,
Doubt it?
Do not umpire baseball games;
Don't for office run;
Do not call a fellow names
If he has a gun;
Unto wisdom lend your ears;
Shun the festive schooner;
Then you'll live hundred years
If you don't die sooner.

How to Get to Sleep

Sit in reclining chair or rocker.
Tip the chair to a comfortable angle
for the body (not enough to cause any
perceptible weight on the back and to
restful position for the head. Place
the feet on chair as high or trifle
higher as that upon which you are
sitting. Cross the limbs at the ankles
(this closes one end of the circuit). Put
the hands together by interlacing the
fingers (this closes the other end of the
circuiD. Drop the hands loosely in the
lap. Close the eyes. Let go. Relax the
body and mind. Relieve yourself of all
muscular and nervous tension. Think
of nothing except sleep. If you find the
mind wandering in strange and for
hidden, or even in too frequented paths
bring 1t back and quietly concentrate 1t
on the Deep slow, rythmical breathing.
AS you inhale, think sleep; as you ex-
hale, think sleep.

Olive Culture in Southern California: Importance of H

of the article. Cooper is believed to
have become wealthy from this spe-
cialty A short time ago he sold his
ranch and business to a syndicate for
large sum of money.
Encouraged by the success of the
Kimball brothers and Ellwood Cooper
many enterprising horticulturists be-
gan to follow in their footsteps One
of the most notable of these was the
Rev. Mr.. Loucks of Pomona. That
gentleman, a highly intelligent man,
entered into olive culture with en-
thusiasm. He went over to Europe
and made inquiry for himself in all
the olive growing countries, expert
menting with the different methods on
his Pomona plantation.
AS a result of observation extending
through years it was found that not
all sorts of lands were suitable to the
profitable growth of the olive. This is
striking difference from the expe-
rence of olive growers in Europe Asia
Minor and Syria. In Italy the south
of France and Spain lands fit for moth
ing else were looked upon as all right
for the olive. 1t was expected to do
well where nothing else would thrive.
The tree was of extraordinary hardi-
hood. Laing in his Travels" says

THE KNELL

When you direct stunning coach-and-
four
In wondrous realms of purple and OF
gold
While loving uncles perish by the
score,
Bequeathing you their heaps OF
wealth untold,
When calmly, in marble palace
With bowing kings, in ranks both
deep and long,
You walk-'tis then these paragons OF
tact
Alarm clocks--choose to sing thcir
vulgar song.
You shut your eycs-at morning you
would mock,
You seek again those realms of pur-
plish geld,
With deadly force your bootjack hits
the clock
And silence reigns-but all is real
and cold;
You look about your room-no dukes
mo kings
No canvas -backs-no rich Cham
pagny juice,
once more you rub your eyes and seek
those things
And then--you let the English Ian
guage loose.
