DON'T CUT YOUR SLEEP SHORT.
British Scientists FroUn On tlle
Wellington Rule.

The papers read in the physiologi-
cal section of the British Association
for the Advancement OF Science dis
cussing sleep and rest were all op-
posed to the old idea that mankind
should be content with short slum-
Der. The Duke Of Wellington's die
tum of six hours for a man, seven
for a woman and eight for fool
went by the board.
Francis Dyke Acland urged the
necessity for plenty of sleep for the
young as necessary to their bodily
and mental development. He said
that most of a boys growth was done
in bed. He quoted letter from the
head master Of a large school, where
the breakfast hour had been changed
from I to o'clock, as saying that
the whole school was brighter and
doing better work.
DR.. Gotch said that the healthiast
sleep was dreamless. He mentioned
Lord Kitchener's faculty Of being
able to go into dreamless sleep at any
moment.
Professor Lewis said that the nor
| NAL sleep of a laboring man during
the first half hour was very deep and
then grew shallower.
Professor Meyers related his own
experience. with German doosor.
He arranged to be awakened after a
| half hour to see what his mental con.
dition was. He set himself several
problems in arithmetic. The next
day he was awakened after an hours
sleep, and so on, increasing his time
for sleep by an hour a day until ne
got six hours. He found his ability
in connection with arithmetic as
great after an hours sleep as after
six hours. When, however, he came
to try another test this one COM
pletely broke down. In trying to
test his memory he found 1t grew IN
proportion to the number of hours
of sleep he took.

all his machinery-loving heart-had

all his machinery-loving heart-had
been discharged for drunkenness.
Then came the plan. Quick as a
fash he urged the roam after the ma
chine, kicking his feet free Of the STIR
Tups as he neared the automobile.
The car rar faster and faster-whau
he was going to try, must be done
quickly.
And then the doctor came out just
in time to see what Billy was going
to 90, and to stand breathless while
his child in the big car, and his sta
bic boy on the splendid roam horse
ran the race that was the talk OF
the village for months afterward.
When Billy was abreast of the car
and it took good work on the part
of both horse and rider to achieve
that-he called to the terror-stricken
little offender:
Get over on one side-Quick-
make room for me-l'm going to
jump" And as she crept away to
the other side, he leaped from the
back of the running horse and fell
all in heap-but in the car.
It was but the work of a moment
to gather himself up and reverse the
lever. The next moment he had the
steering wheel in his hand, and had
the car turned, and then ran back to
where a wildly excited group stood
and waited, with the frantic father.
Arrow slackened his speed gradually,
and when he quite understood tnat
his rider had suddenly disappeared,
he stopped and cropped an especially
fine bunch of grass with supreme in
difference to races or runaway cars.
Il would like to do something to
show you how I appreciate your act,
and the courage and quickness of
thought that it showed" said the
doctor to Billy in a talk that was ex-
ceedingly uncomfortable, and yet
pleasant, to that praise-shunning
Young man. And at hat, Billy's
eyes suddenly frightened, and he
spoke:
"If you would let me run the ma
chine for you, instead of getting an
other man, as you said you were
going to do" he began. Il know
all about it, sir. I've studied it up
every spare minute since I've been
here. I thought if lever got
chance to run one-I'7e always been
crazy over machinery. cir, and
And ther the doctor put few ques-
tions that settled the matter.
You shall run it for me from this
day, until you get something better"
tie doctor said quietly. And, If
you care to study machinery-if you
have any desire to make an expert
OF yourself-I have a brother in that
line OF business, and I think we can
arrange to le: you learn all you want
about wheels md things"
Then I'll ct once Billy realized that
this is not s=ch a mixed up old world,
after all; and that if fellow is faith
full in what he has to do, and what
com t, him, even suddenly and un~
expectedly, there may be chances for
him to get what he wants with all
his heart-that tie things he would
give his head for" as he had put it,
we're, after al, some Of them, apt to
come his way.-Youn5 Peoples

Bootjacks Among the Sunfowers.

It is popularly supposed that the
bootjack has disappeared from the
common articles of household use as
completely as the candle snuffers and
the warming pan. But this is not
true in some parts of Kansas. IL
Smith County they are numerous
Why they should still continue in ex-
istence in the vicinity OF Smith Centre
while at Mankato not one is to be
found is explained by the prevalence
of the old fashioned custom OF wear
ing boots at the former place. Many
bootjacks may be found hanging be-
hind the kitchen stove in the tarm-
houses in that vicinity. The oldest
one was made in Wisconsin in 1851.

First "scrap" of the Strike.

First "Scrap" Of the Strike.
"Hey. you scab, if you're going to
scab, why don't you do it in day
light?"
This taunt applied to the. road fore
man of engines, A. C. Kenyon, by a
striking machinist, G. L. Green, caus-
ed the first actual conflict Of the
strike now on at the Southern railway
machine shops, in Columbia, while the
special watch,nen brought from Sa-
vannah to protect the companys prop
erty. and two policemen were patrol!-
ing the shop enclosure. Green came
to the Blanding street gate, and peer
ing through the bars saw the road
foreman of engines in his overalls at
work. The taunt quoted followed. Mr..
Kenyon dropped mis- work, walked out
side and demanded to know OF Green
if he meant the remarks to apply to
him. Green replied In the affirmative
wnereupon Kenyon struck him IN the
face, doing it so quickly that the
police officers, who had suspected
from their tones that fight was
imminent, could not prevent the blow.
They promptly stepped in and placed
both parties under arrest-Next morn
ing in police court Kenyon pleaded
guilty to the charge of disorderly con-
duct and paid the $40 fine imposed.
Green was dismissed with warning
against saying things likely to pro-
woke fight.
