How to Sleep In a Blanket.

There are a great many very COM
petent treatises telling you how to
build your fire, pitch your tent and all
the rest Of it. l have never seen des-
cribed the woodman's method of using
a blanket, however Lie fiat on your
back. Spread the blanket over you.
Now raise your legs rigid from the
hips, the blanket, of course, draping
over them In two swift motions tuck
first one edge under your legs from
right to left, then the second edge un-
der from left to right, and over the
first edge. Lower your legs, wrap
up your shoulders and go to sleep. If
you roll over one edge will unwind
but the other will tighten.-Stewart
