One of the Most Mysterious of the
Ways of Nature.

One of the Most Mysterious of the
Ways of Nature.
Shakespeare" said a scientist,
"called sleep the ape of death. That
is a striking name for a striking thing.
Sleep is wonderland. Let US ex-
plore it.
fSelf-hypnotism is a mysterious
force that we can exercise on our
selves in sleep alone. We are all
self-hypnotists. We "a, on certain
nights, tell ourselves firmly that We
must not oversleep, that the next
morning-at 4, at 5 or precise
ly we must wake up. Our Sleep
ing selves respond to the hyp-
motto suggestion made the night be-
fore by our waking selves. That IS
mysterious and striking, isn't it? Still
more mysterious and striking, though,
is the fact of our keeping track of
the time somehow in our slumber.
How on earth do we do that?
TT is impossible to do without
sleep. Men have slept standing, even
running. They have slept in battle,
under fire, with guns roaring on all
sides. They have slept in unendur-
able and deadly pain.
There is no torture equal to that
which the deprivation of sleep entails.
The Chinese are the cruelest folks on
earth, and the most ingenious of tor
turers. Well, the Chinese place the
deprivation of sleep at the head of
their torture list.
"S1eep is state of rest. The heart
rests in sleep. The heart is rhythmic
muscle, not one that never reposes,
but one that works at short shifts,
like a puddler, a moment on, mo-
ment off. Well, when we sleep, the
hearts shifts of rest are redoubled.
1t works then, one on, two off, getting,
indeed, pretty nearly as much repose
as we do.
''The brain in sleep becomes pale
and sinks below the level of the skull.
When we are awake the brain is high
and full and ruddy.
mot only the brain and heart, but
even the ear glands rest in sleep.
That is why when we awake we al
ways rub our eyes. The rubbing is
an instructive action that stimulates
the stagnant tear glands and causes
them to moisten properly our eyes all
dried from their inaction.'

know the author of that letter.
1 bowed to my wife passionate pro-
testations of love, l soothed her half
hysterical emotion, then getting into
my overcoat, 1 made my escape.
Instead of taking the car, 1 decided
to walk down town. 1t was yet two
hours to the appointed time and 1
wanted to collect my thoughts. l did
not feel at my ease, 1 knew 1 was do
ing wrong, yet I felt powerless to re-
sist, and I walked and bit discomfort
eddy at my cigar.
When 1 reached the business part
of the city it was still too early so
l amused myself by walking past the
lighted stores and watching the
crowd which passed and repassed in
never ceasing flow.
So keen was my preoccupation that
1 forgot myself in the maze of my
thoughts and only returned to reality
when my eyes encountered the white
dial of street clock, and 1 saw that
this indicated twenty-eight minutes
past ten. 1 reached the Bon Ton cafe
just as the clock struck the half hour.

claims to have discovered something
that will destroy dandelions. The lat.
ter is authority for the statement that
successful experiments have been
made with white clover on patches of
ground covered with dandelions, COM
pletely eradicating them. The infer
ence is that lawns taken by the dan
delions would have to be plowed and
narrowed and seeded with the white
clover. Inasmuch as there are one

"BEGIN RIGHT Now"

Under the above heading, the Great

There is not greater curse to

these same yellow dandelions. Great
Falls has the prettiest boulevards and
the prettiest lawns in the state. For

shall be taken the foothold will some
day become so strong that there will

There is Great Falls ordinance
which defines the dandelion a nuts
ance, and which provides a fine upon
any one allowing them to- grow In
their lawn or yard. This ordinance
was passed by the city council last
spring for the purpose of heading of
the rapidly advancing yellow peril, and

ordinance be enforced to the letter

Leader office to give warning Of the
