WHY THEY SLEEP IN CHURCH.
Hypnotism, Not Drowsiness, Declared
to Be the Cause.

"Churchgoers don't sleep In church.
They undergo an hypnotic trance.
The soothing voices and mild music
and monotonous recitative Of church
service put forth powerful hypnotic
influences, and that Is why the pews
resemble a railroad track in the
abundance of their sleepers.''
The speaker. a hypnotist. banged
the table vehemently.
Don't laugh" he said. ITS true.
Hypnotism. not drowsiness, is what
makes you sleep in church. Through
your auditory nerve sound waves are
passed to your brain that are as ef-
fective as though professional hyp-
notist had made them. Sound. you
know. is the newest and best hyp-
motto.
''At first, In the church service, the
periodicity OF the wave alterations is
short. There is a little speaking,
then more music. And just when you
are getting properly lulled the clergy
man, in a modulated, agreeable, sooth-
ing voice, speaks on and on and on
and you begin to nod. You are. hyp-
notically- speaking. entranced.
THE average church service is .
scientifically correct hypnotic instru-
ment. No wonder. then, it puts many
OF us to Sleep"

HAPPY OLD AGE

AS old age advances. we require less
food to replace waste, and food that
will not overtax the digestive organs,
while supplying true nourishment.
Such an ideal food is found in Grape
Nuts. made Of whole wheat and barley
by long baking and action Of diastase
in the barley which changes the starch
into sugar.
The phosphates also, placed up un-
der the bran-coat of the wheat, are in
cluded in Grape-Nuts, but left out Of

FederaI Authority upheld.

Washington.-Inr refusing to grant to
Attorney General Young of Minnesota
a writ of habeas corpus releasing from
the penalty imposed by the United
States District Court for the district
of Minnesota on charge of contempt
of court in instituting a proceeding in
a state court for enforcement of the
railroad rate law after the Federal
Court had prohibited such course,
and in affirming the decision Of Judge
Pritchard of the United States Circuit
Court for the western district of North
Carolina discharging from imprison-
ment James H. Wood, a ticket agent
Of the Southern Railway at Asheville,
after he had been sentenced by the
Asheville police court to serve term
on the rock pile on the charge of col
lecting for a ticket ON that road
greater price than was permitted by
the state railroad law, the Supreme
Court of the United States Monday
added another to the series of decisions
which have rendered notable the pres
ent term of that court.
In both cases the right of the states
to fix rates for railroad transportation
was the issue, and both involved con-
ficts between the federal and the
state courts. The decision in each
case was opposed both to the states
and to their courts.
The opinion of the court in both
cases was announced by Justice Peck
ham, and with the exception of Justice
Harlan, all the other members of the
court stood behind him in the all
pouncement of the courts finding.
Justice Harlan read a dissenting
opinion in the Young case. in which he
took the view that the suit was prac-
tically proceeding against the state
and therefore not permissible under
the eleventh amendment, to the consti-
tuition. He therefore characterized the
opinion as an era making history of
the country, said it had the effect of
closing the courts of the state against
the state itself and predicted that the
result would be disastrous.
