TAKE A REST.

Those who feel in need OF a stimu-
liant should take a rest. That Is the
opinion OF contributor 10 the San
Francisco Call He says there is no
tonic better than few minutes com
plete rest He adds, Instead of
morning coffee to 1T you for the days
work, suppose you form the habit Of ly-
ing down, With every muscle relaxed.
for a quarter Of an hour after YOU have
finished dressing and eating a coffee
less breakfast. Instead OF more coffee,
or cocktail, or a glass of beer, for
your MONDAY luncheon, lie down again
for IS minutes, letting every muscle go
slack, without particle Of tension
anywhere and sending the mind off
about nothing. Surprising you do the
same thing instead OF the afternoon
tea that so many are affecting. Sup
posing you do II again when you reach
home after you are ready for dinner"
The objection would be mode to this,
that no busy man can afford to spend
so much time on rest But the fact
is that the really busy man, who has
an object to live for, and but few years,
after all, to accomplish 1t In, cannot
afford to burn the candle at both
ends" by being continually on the go,
and never looking after the physical
and mental machinery, on the good,
healthy condition OF which everything
depends. Narcotics are worse than use
less. Rest Is a real stimulant. Taken
when needed, 1t aids digestion, In
creases the capacity for work, as for
enjoyment Of life. II prolongs life and
Increases the usefulness OF the living.

There is a growing recognition OF

our public and commercial buildings,
but In our homes Even the most cas-

noticed the Improvements along these
lines within decade or two. And this
Improvement must mean an'improve-
nent in the character and Ideals Of the
nation. The very haste with which
we have been building and then tear
