To Relieve insomnia.

A very simple method of inducing
sleep in cases of persistent insomnia
and one that has succeeded where
many drugs have failed is to simply
administer moderate amount OF
liquid food before the patient goes
to bed. This diverts the blood from
the brain to the abdominal organs
and takes away the cerebral excite
ment that precludes sleep.

BY Publishers Press.
Paris, Feb. I'm. Armand Falieres
will be inaugurated as president of the
republic Sunday. The ceremony will
take place at the Elysee palace, where
President Loubets will turn over the
offices to his successor. The new pres
ident will be driven from tho Luxem
bourg palace to the Elysee with the
members Of the cabinet, escorted by a
guard of cuirassiers.
The ceremony with which the new
executive will be ushered into office
will be very simple. Plans had been
made for making the ceremony ostenta-
tious in the extreme, but both Presi-
rent Loubet and, President-elect Fal-
Heres requested that the strictest sim
plicity be observed and as a conse-
quence the display and formal cere-

Elaborate preparations have been
made by the police to guard M.
Fallieres and Loubet, as it is feared
that some demonstrations may be at
tempted by socialists in retaliation for
the recent prosecution in the attempts
by the government to suppress the
anti-militarist agitation which has been
going on.

GAMBLING WITH DEATH
What Many Of Us Are Doing Three
Times a Day.

For everything we get something Is
taken away. Every act pulls two ways.
Some men in power dole out their souls
for it. They can t have soul and power
at the. same time.
And So, in this quick-living age, most
of us can't have energy and health at ,
the same time. One or the other must
be lost, and it is usually health.
We know we are doing wrong and
would like to reform, but we have a
morbid fear of being laughed at if we
aim to live and eat according to con-
science and good sense.
Some of us break away for while
and enslave ourselves to a diet. We
read about the hardy Scotsman being
fed on porridge and oatcake, making
soldiers of muscle and dash, and how
Diet diet doesn't as' last long. We quickly
swing back into the great line, exiting
and drinking to fulness like the rest,
eating anything and everything, at any
time, and any way we find 1T. We say
"what is stomach for if it ism It to
obey the palate.
But there is really no one rule appli-
| cable to everybody's stomach. What
one man may eat another may not.

have been surgicaHy treated.
In one picture a4Blenheim spaniel is
shown, sitting proudly behind his false
