TILTED MAN SUES.

When after paying attention to her
for three years, Miss Julia c. Clifford,
a teacher in the public school OF New
Benford, Mass finally refused to
marry him, Henry c. Hopkins, a
prominent New Benford man, brought
an action against her for the gifts he
had bestowed upon her and caused a
trustee writ TO be served against her
salary.
The writ made claim for 500 16 for
articles which had not been returned
by Miss Clifford. Although advised
that Hopkins had no case in law, Miss
Clifford decided to pay the claims in
full in order to keep the matter out OF
the courts.
Miss Clifford and Mr.. Hopkins had
been the best OF friends. Recently
another sutton appeared on the scene
and the engagement was suddenly
broken.
Mr.. Hopkins for the last three
years has been paying me considera-
bio attention." said Miss Clifford.
Naturally he made me a number oil
gifts. When a short time ago told
him that l felt that I could not marry
him he became very angry and as good
as asked me for the return Of every
thing. This I was only to glad to dc
giving him back q ring, bracelet, 8

I thought that that ended the affair
but it seems that he was not satisfied
and caused this attachment to be place.

Hinta For insomnia.

First OF all it Is necessary to lie cor
rectly in bed. Do not curl up, but
place the limbs straight, so as to In
duce the best circnlat ton. Lie on the
right side. II you are on your back
you invite dreams, II on the stomach
you press the lungs and If on the left
side you cramp the heart and digestive
organs. Insomnia often comes from
hunger. If you have been long with
out eating take glass of milk and a
biscuit or many times glass of wa.
ter will be sufficient. A hot drink be-
fore retiring Is conducive to sleep, and
the greatest necessity Of all IS to have
warm feet. AS for the mental part OF
1t, the idea Is to make the brain run IN
as monotonous a strain as possible,
and that Is why the old plan Of count
ing imaginary sheep jumping over a
stile is usually successful. AS The
brain becomes tagged the sheep so
more and moro languidly, and sleep
soon follows. One Of the best plans
for going to sleep Is to make up ones
mind to- be reconciled to staying
awake. II you lie quietly and think
out some plan for the next day or say
to yourself you will just lie quietly TIL
sleep overtakes you you will find your
self dropping of" almost before you
know It. 1t is all nonsense to say.
"Oh, should go mad II / were to lie
awake for long time" 1t Is merely
that we have grown into the habit OF
thinking that when we go to bed we
must sleep. but most Of us sleep as
well as eat more than we need, and II
we regard the fact Of being snuSly
tucked In bed as sufficiently restful
the horror Of lying awake will pass. If
too much notice Of insomnia IS not
taken It will usually cure itself.
