How to Cure
Insomnia

The first thing for a person inclined
to insomnia to do is to stop worrying
The greatest obstacle to sleep is to
worry that you are not going to sleep;
the more you move the god of slumber
the more shy he becomes.
Next, be careful about what you eat.
The stomach is a powerful factor in
sleep and will keep one awake if it is
too empty, or if it is too full. Sugar,
candy and chocolate have a tendency
to keep one awake, and sweet desserts
should be avoided at night as well as
coffee, tea and greasy foods; whether
an empty or a partially full stomach
is better depends on the individual and
is determined by experimentation in
each case.
One of the best ways to draw the
blood from the brain is to take a mod
erately swift walk before retiring, and
if there is still difficulty in getting to
sleep, a tepid bath and gentle rub
will draw the blood from the brain to
the surface of the body. Persons sus-
ceptible to sound, who awake easily,
may find it wise when sleeping in a
noisy neighborhood to stuff medieated
cotton in the ears, which will keep
out noises and insure undisturbed
slumber.
Self hypnotism is not only possible,
but very useful in sleeplessness, and
the following device will help: Ar
range a string tightly from the head
TO the foot of the bed over where you
lie down. Just over your head let a
string hang from the longer string,
and at the end of the shorter string
fasten any strong round object, bright
enough to dazzle the eye. Lie on the
bed relaxed, with the object over and
somewhat higher than the head. Gaze
at the object steadily and while watch
ing it make the suggestion to yourself
that ~ will sleep tonight soundly and
my sleep will be natural and refresh
ing. L will sleep all night.
Get into the "don't care" mood.
Get into bed, Indifferent whether you
are going to sleep or not, and you will
find generally as a result that sleep
viii reward you.--Boston Traveller.

WHY HER PROSPECTS WERE
DUBIOUS.

Judge:-About year ago a cook in
formed her Boston mistress that she
was apt to leave at any time, as she
was engaged to be married. The mis-
tress was genuinely sorry, as the wo-
man is a good cook and steady. Time
passed, however, without further word
of leaving, though the happy man-to7be
was a frequent visitor in the kitchen.
The other day the mistress was moved
by curiosity to ask:
"When are you to be married,
Nora?"
"Indade, an it's niver at all. IN
be thinkin', num- - was the sad reply.
"Really9 What is the trouble?'
3. IT'S this, mum. l won't marry
Mike when he's drunk, an when he s
sober he won t marry mel

ATTACK .WATCHMAN
WHO DEFIED GODS
Patrick McGinnis Made Target
of Angry CelestiaIs

All Hoo was sent to the gods without
proper clothing. sufficient food. and due
lamentation. Therefore Patrick McGim-
mis-. who was responsible for the blow
TO All Hoo's chances of sneaking into
paradise, was abhorred OF all good Chi
nese.
1t was eight days ago. when the good
bark Star Of India was foundering on
the deep. bound from the Alaskan SAL
mon stations to San Francisco, that All
Hoo died. The boss Chinese communi-
Gated news OF the death TO Captain
Christiansen. and the captain directed
Patrick AIcGinnis. a watehman on the
vessel. TO go below. secure An Hoo. and
see that he was buried with speed.
McGinnis did not fancy the job. and
that caused all the trouble. The watch
man went down into the foul smelling
Chinese quarters, where the hundred
orientals were packed in their narrow
hunks, and. with many expressions OF
disgust, lifted the body of All Hoo from
its berth and dragged it on deck. He
did not stop to handle the corpse ten
derly. and many pairs OF angry eyes
followed him up the ladder he tug
ged al the body. An angry roar of
Chinese babble followed his disappear
anee. but soon the Celestials crowded
on deck. apparently having forgotten
their anger. with punks, food of all
sort, clothing and all the dead mans
belongings. TO send TO the bottom of
the sea with him.
McGinnis laughed at the fishermen
and their offerings to the gods and
Precipitation. of the devils, and sewed
away at the rough canvas bag in which
All Hoo was to make his last earthly
Journey. The watchman did not protest
when punks and a few handsful of food
were thrust into the sack with the
dead man. but at the sight of Chinese
carrying the clothing. the blankets, and
even the straw mattress of the decedent
he waved them all away.
The Chinese pleaded to have the
mattress sewed up with the body. but
the canvas was not plentiful, and ex-
ira weights would be needed 10 carry
that buoyaat mass to the bottom. Nc
Gfnnfs drove the men away, and pre-
ared. as they viewed it. TO send their
countryman to certain torment
A wall of dismay greeted the splash
of the body as McGinnis tipped il into
the sea- and frightened faces watched
1t for the moment it was in view. Moth
ing more was said until the Star Of
India dropped anchor here yesterday
The Chinese were being taken off
in Tom CroNley's launch, and Jim SEN
ate was counting them as they Topped
into the boat, when McGinnls appeared
and stepped into the craft. Instantly
he was the bottom of a bowling, crazed
mass of Chinese. Knives flashed, but
with the press of bodies il was inn
possible to use them. Finally Crowley
and Senate, by main force, pulled Nc
Ginnis from underneath the crowded
mass and threw him into the pilot
house The door was locked, and the
Chinese kept at bay When shore was
reached the orientals were made 10
leave the boat first. and not until the
last was out of sight was the pilot
house door opened and McGinnis al
lowed TO come out.
