How to Cure Insomnia L
Simmer.

Insomnia is more prevalent In
!. summer than at any other Pc
!. riod Of the year. The excessive
+ heat causes restlessness, and
!. the HEART AND BRAIN ARE
PROMPTED INTO INCREAS-
!. ED ACTIVITY.
+ 4 we'll known New York ply.
!. sician recommends the following
! method Of inducing sleep in the
!. torrid months: - ...
"A bath Of moderate duration
!. in lukewarm water just before
I retiring will be found to be an
!; encourager Of sleep.
"But the person should take
!. care not to dry himself thorough
! iy nor rub himself with rough
. towel so that the circulation is
stimulated.
. The idea is that by merely
wiping off the body so that it Is
. yet damp at the end Of the bath
the body retains the soothing
!. and quieting effects Of the warm
water. The stimulus supplied
. by brisk rubbing would over
come those effects, as would wa
!. ter of extremes Of temperature"

SENATOR M'cUMRER POINTS OUT
SUPPOSED WEAKNESSES OF
PROPOSED REFORM.
SENATE MAY REACH VOTE
BEFORE CLOSE OF DAY
Extended Discussion Of Popular Plan
for Senatorial Elections Being Visor-
ousIy Discussed-Politicians Accused
OF Buying Up or Starting Campaign
Newspapers to Attack Opponents.

washington, June 12-Within half
an hour after the beginning of today's
session, the senate entered upon the
conslderatio of the resolution provid-
ing for the election Of United States
senators by direct vote of the people on
which there had been an agreement
to vote before the end of the
day 1t was understood that
there would be an extended discussion
of the resolution before a vote could
be reached. Senator McCumber was
the first speaker.
Not Panacea For Ills.
While supporting the general propo-
sltlon for the election of senators by
direct vote, in a speech made in the
senate today, Senator McCumber, of
North Dakota. contended that it's en-
actment into law would not prove a
panacea for the ills of the flesh. He
predicted that the man who thinks it
is such will awaken to the fact that
in examining the evils of legislative
corruption he has entered into a field
of equally insidious dangers and broad
er opportunities for the corruptionist.
THAT which has sometimes been
brought into use to convert the indi-
vidual legislator under the present sys-
tem," he said. will be used to convert
the public under the new system not SO
much by direct dealing with the pub
lie as by controlling and getting the
source Of public political Instruction."
Fears Danger in Primaries.
Mr.. McCumber feared danger in pop
ular primaries, involving two cam
paigns, as he said they would. He ad-
ded that an election under such condi-
tions would cause as great expense so
that only the millionaire or demagogue
could afford to be candidate.
I'VE can not blind ourselves to the
fact that with the primary election
system has grown the practice, on the
part Of candidates, of establishing and
purchasing papers by wholesale and
retail. with no loftier motive in view
than that Of destroying their opponent
by political libel and falsehood. Dailies
and weeklies are established for no
other purpose than that of meeting po-
litical exigencies. These papers often
carry on libelous campaign for years,
and editorial writer's are employed
more upon their ability in cloaking
truth and creating unfounded preju-
dice than upon their knowledge Of
public questions"
