The Gift Of Sleep.

Daily recurring, 1t Is as needful to
us as food or air. Uulike food, the
harder it is labored for the poorer the
results. When Lord Roseberry, the
English statesman, and great fav-
orite personally, suffered from sleep
lessness some years ago, he published
his thanks on his recovery to his un-
known correspondent who had de-
luged him with recipes. Among the
old wives fables that were sent him
were few remedies which he advised
others to try who were in similar dole
full case. The first was breathing
deeply and thinking of each breath,
but above all breathing slowly. The
next time one lies awake, slumber far
from ones eye-lids, it is worth while
to remember this and put it to trial.
Generally, about ten or fifteen long
breaths will be all of which conscious
ness remains. If this loses it's power,
try cup of hot, very hot, cocoa or
chocolate, with milk, just as you lie
down in bed. II you fancy mental
remedies, count the sheep passing
through the gate one by one. Often
about hundred so imagined will send
you off for good. Or, in the dim light
of the bedroom fix your eyes on a spot
on the ceiling above your head and
watch it-before long your eyelids will
be tired and close in sleep.
Some people keep some old rhymes
and verses in a back chamber of their
brains, ready for such an emergency,
slowly to recall and say over to ones
self Ii worry is the enemy, then by
some means turn the current of your
thoughts. Try some of these sugges-
tions, but if none succeeds then cease
fighting in bed for the sleep that will
not come to you, get up, wake yourself
thoroughly, try cold water inside and
out, then seek your bed once more,
and you may perhaps bless these
recollections and experiences of a
poor sleeper.

Altoona, Pa.-Discouraged by the

Which Makes the Better Husband?

Every woman worthy OF the name
wants to take a pride in her husband
and wants people to look up to him.
She does not even object to looking
up TO him a little herself, although she
may not admit it.
In any case, the ideal of most WON.
en- is a man whose name is ON every!
body's lips; a man whose sheer force
of will and indomitable energy have
forced him to the front in the race OF
life If he has not got there when she
marries him the go-ahead woman en-,
deavors to help him toward the goal
But the question that every woman
has subsequently to settle for herself
when her ambitions are fulfilled is d
very old one. Is 1t best to have a bril-
liant husband? Am ! happier than
the wives of the merely mediocre
Jones and Brown, Or on the other
hand, has my husbands improved po
sition in life proved a lever to force
us apart?
Then the conclusion is forced upon
her. The woman who wishes her hus
band to excel in the professions, in
literature, science or in commerce; in
short, to become n first fighter in any
walk of life, must be content to take
a second place in his thoughts Mod
ic ~
must concentrate all his energies in
one direction if he is to succeed.
Many women recognize this, and
! are moderately happy in the limited
sphere left them. To others, on the
contrary, the realization is terrible
Indeed, unless a girl is prepared tC
! sacrifice her own feelings to her am
bilious husbands career she should
| continue spinster or marry med
iocrity.
After all there is good deal to be
! said for the mediocre man. He may
never give his wife a fine automobile
in which to ride, but he will not be toe
busy to personally pilot her through
life. Another advantage he has over
the brilliant husband is that he is al
ways level and calm in his tempera
ment. No man can enter into the
competition of what may be called
"the clever world" without subjectina
his body and his mind to great
strain.
So 1t follows that the brilliant hus
band. no matter how he sparkles out
side his home, is often very dull with
in it. The history of the married lives
of great men is not always uncheck
cred, and would go far to prove that
the man who is not genius is more
likely to make good husband than
his brilliant brother.
Yet he need not be dullard. That
is going to the other extreme. Better
any day a wise man than a fool. At
the same time, taking him all round,
putting his best against his worst, and
remembering that great positions are
as certainly surrounded by great temp.
tations, the chances of d woman's hap.
piness are highest when she is con-
tent to share them with a merely med
iocre man than with one who occupies
a pedestal Of solitary splendor and is
climbing up that pedestal, with others
about trying to intercept his footsteps.

Six Marriages Were Failures.

Chicago, September Io.-Mrs. Lau-
"a w. Hodges, of 1913 Fifth avenue,
principal in six marriages, the last
of which was only one day past when
her husband fled from her, has come
to rather bitter conclusions about
men and matrimony.
Mrs. Hodges has had wealth Of
experience from which to deduce her
beliefs, having one husband in self
defense, divorced three, seen one flee
arrest on forgery charge, and sur
vived the cruelty Of another. Her
latest experience came last Monday,
when she told Justice Wolff that w.
C. Hodges, to whom the justice had
married her on Saturday, had fled
from her, leaving heritage of un-
paid bills and protested checks.
Out of her experience Mrs. Hodges
has deduced the following matrimo-
NAL axioms:
All men are deceitful.

not love. After: being married for a
