the SLEEPING SICKNESS
WHICH MEANS DEATH

How many readers have heard Of this
terrible disease? 1t prevails in that
far-away oountry-Africa-especially
the Congo district. 1t is caused by
the bite of the tsetse fly. When It
bites a person, the sleeping symptoms
begin and finally the sufferer sleeps
until death occurs.
Contrast this with the peaceful,
balmy sleep Of health. Is there any
thing more wearing than to lie awake
at night. tossing about, nervous, With
cold feet, hot head and mercy knows
what else? Short Of letting the tsetss
fly bite u we would do almost any
thing for relief. How can We pre-
vent It! Mr.. George Hayes, Of
Union City, Pa, writes: II had lost
my appetite. was all rundown, could
mot sleep nights. I had tried every
thing without relief. vinol was REQ

Damn Fool Order Says Judge.

New York, March. What lawyers
declare to be one ofthe most remark
able decisions ever handed down
from the judicial bench in this city
came from the pen Of Supreme Court
Justice Marean In Brooklyn. The
order, written on the back Of certain
legal papers, WAS exactly "a follows:

order.

The case that brought out this
terse but most informal decision was
that OF Cirinski vs.. Meyerwitz. The

One of the latest society fads is
reading character by the finger nails.
here are some Of the rules:
Long Nails When the nails are
long the person is good natured, but
placing little confidence in others.
Narrow Nails-The person with such
nails is desirous OF attaining knowl-
edge In the sciences, but is never at
peace long With her neighbors.
Broad Nais.-rhey who have the'
nails broad are Of a gentle dispositio
bashful aud afraid Of speaking befor
their superiors or indeed to any one
without hesitation and downcast air.
Little Nails.-Little round nails dis
cover a person TO be obstinately an
cry, seldom pleased. inclining TO hate
every one MS conceiving herself supe.
rior TO others. though without any
foundation for such conception.
Fleshy Nnils.-A calm person and
idler. loving TO sleep, eat and drink,
not delighting in hustle and busy
life, one who prefers a narrow income
without industry 10 one OF opulence to
be acquired by activity and diligence.
Pale or Lead Colored Nails.-A mel
ancholy person. one who through
choice leads n sedentary life and
would willingly give up all things for
the sake of study and to improve in
the learned and metaphysical branches

:-:WOMANKIND:-:
GIRLS SHOULD BE CAREFUL
TO STUDY GRACEFUL POSES

Most young girls are naturally so
charming in their movements, having
the unconscious. unstudied grace which
characterizes youth, that II seems a
great pity when any one Of them does
things which are awkward and make
them, for the moment at least, unat-
tractive.
When a girl Tits either forward or
backward in the chair in which she Is
sitting she is doing not only an M
proper. but an ungainly thing. At a
smart dressmalSer's the other day an
older woman and her daughter were
giving winter orders, and all the while
the girl sat there inspecting fascinating
fabrics she hdgetted on the edge OF her
chair. which she kept tilted on ono leg,
thereby throwing her body into hid
eous positin and imperiling her safety,
not TO mention risking breaking the
chair
Another awkward and most undesir-
able habit is that of standing on ono
foot, one side of the body poised and
the other slouching No girl looks we'll
IN such a posture, and she further
emphasizes awarkdness when, stand
ing at a counter In this one-sided FASH
ion, she leans her elbow or one elbow
on thes tand in front of her.
Some girls always strike this atti-
tude at the counters In the shops or
in the drug stores when partaldng OF
their favorite "sundaes."

NOT DIFFICULT TO AVOID
GETTING JUICE ON HANDS

When pairing the vegetable 1t is neces-
sary to hold it in the hand. but it is
not dificult TO form the habit Of point
ing the knife blade downward, so that
the juice may run of at the point
When this is not possible, watch the
knife blade. andw hen it has on it
an accumulation of juice wipe the
blade on a damp cloth which you keep
at hand.
If you are deft with your hands you
will know by instinct that you need
not put down the vegetable you are
holding in your other hand TO do this,
but may simply pass the blade over
the cloth, turning IL on both sides, and
then begin your pairing again, having
lost hardly n second.
In slicing. quartering, and dicing
vegetables il is not necessary. If you
have a small cuttingboard, 70 hold
them in your hand.
Steady them upon the board. and
use the knife without touching the
blade.
In this way very little Juice comes
in contact with the fingers.
