Nervous Women Need More Sleep.
How long a woman should sleep
each night depends upon the kind of
work she does, and upon tempera-
ment. If she is nervous more rest
and sleep are required than for one
of a phlegmatic nature, according
to physician who has specialized
along these lines.
THE number of hours of sleep a
woman or man gets is usually a
habit governed by their mode of
living" she says, "and for this
reason one can easily regulate the
time to have sufficient rest.
THE accepted time for sleep is
eight hours, and for the average in
dividual this is enough. but If less
Is needed, then the extra time can
be spent in some profitable way,
while If nine or ten hours are re-
quired they should be taken, even
If the recreation period has to be
cut short. For woman who does
not get enough sleep is not only
never a success in business, but is
irritable in her home and undoubt-
edly is encouraging mental break
down and nervous prostration, either
of which is bound to follow in time.
The amount of sleep needed de-
pends largely upon the work done
during the day. If it is mental more
rest should be taken. for with the
physical labor the body may be more
wearied, but it recuperates much
more quickly than the brain. A
woman who is nervous needs from
two to three hours more each night
than one who is not, especially il
her business keeps her working at
high tension, yet few excitable per-
sons ever get enough sleep, for it
seems almost impossible for them to
stay quiet sufficient length of time
to be properly rested.
"On the other hand, there are a
few women who get more sleep than
they really need. and as a result are
always sort of stupid and indolent
taking no interest in their work or
social life, but dragging out an ex-
istence that seems a burden to them
and all because they rest so long
that the organs of digestion grow
defective from lack of proper care
and the absence of the right kind
of exercise.

Notes on Headwear.

A wonderful use of buckles has
been revived for hats-buckles plain
or fancy, some of them even glowing
with richly colored stones. A straw
of ecru, with a strong yellow tinge,
was trimmed with the blue and green
Scotch ribbons so popular in Paris
this spring. Right in front was an
oddly shaped buckle. encrusted with
stones like miniature editions of the
eyes in peacock S tail.

To Produce SIccn.

A sudden and startling awaken

no particular cause, often leaves the
sufferer so wide awake that sleep
afterward is almost impossible. In
such a case an excellent remedy is
to take 100 sips of cold water very
slowly.

Is the earth made up of three con-
centric spheres? A physicist says
that such is the case. The solid nu-
cleus he supposes to be between 1000
and 1000 miles in diameter and this
is surrounded by a liquid substratum,
outside of which is the crust, various
ly estimated at seventy to 200 miles
in thickness. More than two centur-
les ago a similar theory including
the slow rotation of the inner solid
sphere on a different axis from that
of the entire globe, was held by DR..
Edmund HALEY to account for the
changes in the earths magnetism.
The axis of the nucleus was thought
to have been originally that of the
entire globe and to the change of its
course was attributed the deluge.
The earth's internal heat, it is now
pointed out, may be accounted for by
the friction of the differently rotat-
ing bodies.

THE CHICAGO WOMAN'S CLUB.
For one thing, it did away with child
labor in the State. Eight years ago,
although Illinois was the third manu-
featuring State in the Union, its child
labor laws were disgrace. Hull House
bore the brunt OF the fight which put
proper legislation OIL the statute books,
hut II was the Woman's Club which made
the fight possible. The Woman's Club
was instrumental in organizing the first
Juvenile Court in America. Formerly
children even OF and 10 years were
tried in the same dock and in accordance
with the same standards OF justice as
hardened criminals. Now every year
1000 boys and girls who have broken
the law technically called delinquent
pass under the jurisdiction OF this special
court, and the court establishes guar
dianship over a thousand more who are
homeless or without proper care (techni-
cally called dependency. One who
watches a single session OF the Juvenile
Court has the belief forced upon him
that it does more to reduce crime i'll
the city than any dozen OF the other
courts together The city owes TO the
Woman's Club the beginning of the
agitation for the system OF small parks
which now distinguish Chicago The
vacation school movement also was due
to the efforts of the Woman's Club
No other organization OF women in the
world can be compared to it in the mat
Ter of civic usefulness, in the intimacy
of its relation to the life Of great
city-World's Work.

known to the trade, are used, all the
precautions of the skilled painter are
useless to prevent the cracking and
peeling which make houses unsightly
in a year or so and, therefore, make
painting bills too frequent and costly.
"The house owner should have his

Curious figures are obtained by
Dr.. w. j. Russell when magnesia
dust or other fine powder is sprinkled
over a plate of glass. copper, ebon-
ite, cardboard or other material. the
plate being about twelve degrees G.
warmer than the air. The best re-
suits are obtained when the dust
gently settles over the plate during
cooling. The figures vary with the
shape of the plate, usually showing
radiations from the angles. and they
are affected also by any neighboring
object, such as an upright pin at the
edge of the plate, or piece of glass
over it. After a week or a fortnight
the dust figures become so adherent
that they can be brushed gently
without injury.
