IN BEDTIME HOURS
SHORT DISCOURSE ON PROPER
METHODS OF SLEEP.
\ ritter Declares the Human Race Does
Not Know How Properly to Woo
"Nature's Sweet Rostorer"-
Beware the 8 iorer.


Man is the only animal that sleeps
on it's back, says the New York Press.
Many aniHals sleep on their sides,
but most sleep prone-that is, face
down. Dogs never dream when prone,
but invariably do so when sleeping
on their side. All Of US from the
country nave seen Bung, the hound,
chasing rabbits in his sleep. An ami
NAL would be perfectly helpless If it
slept on its back. And so is man help
less in that position.
If some other fellow wants a fortune
let him invent pillow that will allow
a man or woman or child to sleep face
down without having to twist the neck
nearly out of joint. We still style it
the "back-up cure and introduce it in
MI homes. There is no excuse for
lying on the back and keeping the
spine hot all night, while the front of
tho body-the abdomen, the stomach,
the chest, the throat, etc.-is allowed
to become chilled. hot spine is a
disease generator. And, on the other
hand, cold spine is death.
Snoring is an Internal nuisance to
every one except the snorer People
who sleep on their fronts never snore.
Those who sleep on their backs in
variably do. The palate as we know
1t is the roof of the mouth and the
floor of the nose. Some style it the
hard palate. Back near the throat is
the soft palate. When you sleep on
your back this gets down about the
breathing apparatus and you snore.
Some snores are worse than the mid
night howl of hyena. Never marry a
woman that snores. Ask her before
you propose If she is addicted to snor.
ing, and if she says yea" avoid her.
1t is much easier to relax when
sleeping on your front than when
sleeping on your back. And what we
all need after touching the bed at
night is relaxation. 1t is a billion
pities that some scientist cannot teach
the art of relaxing. Our strenuous
life, of course, is not blameless in this
matter. We go to bed in excitement,
and the nerves are strung all night
That is to say, we go to bed IN full
tune, like piano, and cannot possibly
let the strings down. Therefore we
do not rest. Could we relax we could
sleep four or five hours and arise re.
freshed: but as we cannot relax, We
groan and dream and sweat and roll
over and have remorse for eight or
nine hours, and get up with a swelIed
head.
Every man and woman in this coun.
try was brought up with the notion
that If the feet were higher than tho
head in sleeping all the blood wou,u
rush to the head and cause strangula-
ton. This is the veriest rot. Ad-
vanced physicians now advocate the
elevated feet for the cure of insomnia.
Hang your legs over the footboard,
get rid Of your pillow. and go to sleep
like an infant. You are on your feet
all day and half the night. Stand on
your head the rest Of the night and let
the blood circulate the other way.
Maybe your brain needs 1t.

East Chicago, Ind Nov. 30.-The fire
department was called out about II
o'clock Saturday evening by an alarm

$500 was destroyed and as far as can
be learned. was not covered by insur-

The police are under the belief that
the blaze was of incendiary origin and
have a clew by which they believe the
miscreant may be caught A small pile
of shavings was found in the rear of
the building, partially burned, and as
the wind was blowing from this direc-
ton, it ook but few moments for the
barn to catch fire and burn to the
ground. The Goldberg building is now
occupied by the two wholesale fruit
and grocery dealers who were recently
injured in wreck on the c., L. s. & S

DANGERS IN GAY COSTUMES
DeBriae's Orchestra Furnishes Excel

East Chicago. Ind. Nov. S0.-The
Elks masquerade ball on Saturday
night was one of the greatest social
events Lake county. and more particu-
iarly East Chicago. has ever known.
Fully $500 persons found their way
into the Lewis skating rink about 8
o'clock, and half of this number gained
access to the dancing floor. The floor
was crowded from the opening moment
of the Elks ball until the strains of
Home, Sweet Home" were spIayed by
De Briae's excellent orchestra, and ev-
cry one thoroughly enjoyed themselves.
Through the refusal of the managers
to sprinkle wax upon the floor, a large
quantity of confetti dust was secured
and scattered literally over the sur
face. This served as well as the ex-
pensive wax and added to the pleasure
of the evening, handsful of the paper
being scraped from the floor and
thrown over the costumes of the dane
ers and spectators.

NARROW ESCAPES ON
RAILROAD CROSSING
Sixth Accident Occurs on
Madison Street in Gary
Last Saturday.
DRIVER JUMPS FOR HIS LIFE
simultaneously Pennsylvania Train
Hits Peddler Wagon On
Eleventh Avenue.

Two bad accidents were narrowly
railroad crossings. but in both cases
damage was done to teamsters who-at-
tempted TO cross. At the old Madison
street crossing. accident number six
was registered. when the wagon of the
Toleston Coal company driven by Chas.
Burke. was struck by the Michigan
Central train, east bound. due in Gary
at 2:1O.
Burke was forced to jump to save
his life and if he had not acted as
quickly as he did the second fatality
at the crossing would have been reg
istered. Just as Burke got on the
track he noticed the train bearing down
upon him and he just had time enough
to jump before the wagon was struck.
Wagon Is Ruined.
Burke was practically uninjured. save
for a few scares, but the wagon was
badly damaged. The train stopped at
once and was held until the police could
make thorough investigation. The
engineer was Flaherty and the con-
ductor was McKein. The damage to
the wagon will amount to about SIS.
A similar accident occurred almost
simultaneously on the Pennsylvania
tracks at Eleventh avenue near Main
street. A o'clock the Pennsylvania
flyer struck the rear end of the peddler's
wagon of Daniel Cohen, little dam
age resulting, however. Cohen noticed
the train in time to get across the
tracks. but while he was whipping W
the horse the thrills broke and he coulc
move no further. The train was brought
to a stop and little damage was done
| It is about time for the railroad
committee appointed by the Commercial
club, to get busy.

POLICE FOOLED
BY COLORED PORTER
Stand in Drizzling Rain
Near First National Bank
in Gary For Robber.
SAFE CRACKER DOESN'T CONE
Banker Simpson Summoned on Tele
phone, Explains the Whole
Situation.

Chief Joseph Martin and three of his
trusted officers, Swada, Marquardt and
Catey, held vigil last night which
their Gary friends will not permit them
to forget very soon.
For two solid hours, from o'clock
until O'Clock this morning, the blue
coats stood out in a drizzling rain,
armed with shotgns, revolvers, billies,
flashlights and other paraphernalia used
in the capture of robbers and burglars.
They had surrounded the First Ma
tional bank building, located between
Fifth and Sixth avenues, thinking that
the building harbored a safe cracker.
They were not going to take any
chances on his escape and noiselessly
they waited outside for him to make
his way out. But he never came, for
the very good reason that there was
not a burglar in the place.
Mistake Porter for Burglar.
They had mistaken a colored porter
/ Bob Barnette, whose silhouette they
| saw bobbing upand down through the
drawn window shades, for a safe
cracker.
! The wild news of how the strong safe
was being cracked was brought in by
George Chambers, a night watchman
who first noticed the silhouetted fig
ure behind the drawn curtains. The
police were notified in a hurry and prep
arations were made to capture the
quarry.
In the meantime E. c. Simpson, the
cashier of the bank, was notified. whc
knew the ay of the land. used the tele
phone and called up the bank. AS h
| expected. the porter answered tn
| phone and the whole mystery wa
| cleared up.

MORE EXPLOSIVES
FOUND IN HOUSE
Aetna Expert Says Stuff
Found in Gary Home Is
Nitro and Powder.
POLICE BAFFLED BY MYSTERY
Chief Martin Orders Explosive
Thrown in Calumet River
to Destroy It.

Four more sticks of explosive were
Labovich at Nineteenth and Washing
ton streets. Chief Martin has not found
cIew which would clear up the mys-
terry as yet, and the fact that the owner
of the saloon has enemy who de-
sired TO blow up his place as well an
himself seems certain.
An expert from the powder works Of
Aetna was brought to Gary yesterday
and the explosive examined Instead
of being dynamite. as it was at first
supposed, 1t was found TO be intro
glycerine and gun powder. one of the
most dangerous connections made. The
expert who examined the stuff said
that it would go of at Jar and it
was not necessary to fire it off.
Can't Understand Mystery.
The man also said that he could not
understand why it had not exploded be-
fore, as furniture had been moved about
the house and persons had walked
near where the stuff was concealed.
If one piece had exploded all the rest
would also have been set off and the
carnage resulting WOuiu nave Deen
terrible.
| Labovich was so determined to get
levery piece of explosive out of the
house yesterday that a careful search
was made in the walls of the building,
and four more sticks were found con-
cealed in various places, making a to-
tai of eight in all.
More May BE Found.
1t may be possible that there will
be more found in the meantime, and
the occupants of the building are tread
ing around on their tip toes in fear of
| being torn to shreds by an explosion.
; Chief Martin today will give orders
to his men to destroy the explosive by
throwing it the Calumet river. He
{ was told by the Aetna expert that II
r would be broken un and burned. but
! Martin said that he did not care to take
the risk and he will have it disposed
: of in a safer manner.

MANS NARROW ESCAPE
Foreigner Just Prevented
From Being Crushed
to Death.
Especial to THE T1mEs.)

East Chicago, Ind, Nov 30.-An ac-
cident which nearly proved fatal to a
local foreigner occurred at the Inter
state Iron mills Saturday evening,
when Joe Ablach, of Magound avenue,
fell in front of the huge rolls. Had he
not been grabbed by his fellow en-
ployes, he would surely have passed
between the rolls and been crushed to
death He suffered a severe cash over
his left eye, necessitating the applica-
ton of five stitches by DR.. G. F. Bick-
nell.
Ablach is one of the men who GRASP
the steel with heavy tongs as it goes
into the rolls, and is assisted in his
work by another foreigner. The as
sistants' tongs slipped from the steel
in some manner. and were thrown with
terrific force against Ablach's fore
head, telling him to the floor and cut
ting the deep cash. For half an hour
he was unconscious and it was only
after the administering of restoratives
by the physician that he could be re-
moved to the company's Office where
the operation was performed.
