BEST ATTITUDE FOR SLEEP
French Physician Says Position Which,
One Finds Most Comfortable
Is Best.

AS practically everyone is more or
less addicted to the habit Of sleeping,
the question of the best and most
healthful attitude during slumber is OF
general Importance. There is an an
cient and Widespread idea that to-
sleep nthe left side interferes with
the heart action and is consequently
Injurious and that to sleep on the
back develops the inclination to snore-
Modern authorities are not at ALI
agreed ON the matter, however, one OF
the greatest heart specialists declarS
Ing that 1t is quite immaterial whether
q person sleeps on the right or left
side, while another equally famous
doctor asserts emphatically that one
should always lie on the right side if
heart trouble and indigestion is to be,
avoided. Eliminating the question OF
snoring-a habit quite possible to-
break ones self of-there is little
doubt that the most restful position
when once a person has become ac-
customed to 1t, is fat upon the back
using no pillow. and with, the arms
above the head. This straightensi

However, this is a matter. in which,
one may do as one pleases, and have
good authority therefor. as very dis-i
tinguished French physician has dis
missed the subject by saying that the
best position for sleeping is that which
, person finds most comfortable.

PoIyslot Chicago.

The introduc lion of Polish as q
course in the ,ublic schools of Chi
cago, by Superintendent Ella Flagg
Young, is an interesting experiment,
though some may regard it as rash
one. There is tendency among chill
dren of foreign parentage to drop
their native language, while it would
no doubt add to the general culture
of the rising generation in our large
cities If they would retain it along
with the prescribed studies. If the ex-
pertinent is successful. Mrs. Young
proposes to follow 1t up with other
languages. There are perhaps 100000
Poles in the city, but there are IA
tongues, each of which is spoken by
more than 10000 persons. NeWspa-
pers appear in ten languages and
church services are held in twenty.
In all there are forty different lam
guares of dialects employed to express
the thoughts, needs and emotions OF
the population. Chicago is the second
largest Bohemian city in the world,
the third Swe6 sh, the fourth Norwe-
gian, the fifth Polish and the fifth
German. If all these are to be in
structed in their national language.
and literature the city will eventually
need an Elihu Burritt or a George
F. Marsh to direct its educational ac
tivities.-Boston Transcript.

OLD PuFFs AND SWITCHES
Ladies of Twenty-Five Centuries Ago
Made Liberal Use of Bor.
roWed Hair.

Caesars wife may have been above
suspicion so far as her morals were
concerned, but the same could not
have been said about her hair, any
more than it could about the hair OF
the fashionable matron Of today.
The Greek, Egyptian, Carthaginian
and Roman ladies Of twenty-five CEN
turies ago made use of the most as
tonishing quantities Of borrowed hair,
and the Roman women of the time OF
Augustus were especially pleased
when they could outdo their social
rivals by piling upon their heads a
greater tower Of additional tresses.
They also arranged curls formally
around the head.
An extensive commerce in human
hair was carried on, and after the con-
quest of Gaul, blond hair, such as
grew originally on the heads Of Ger
man girls along the Rhine, became
very fashionable In Rome. Caesar did
not disdain to mix a. little commercial
ism with his military enterprises and
collected a vast amount Of hair from
the vanquished Gauls, which he sent
to market at Rome, and in the Roman
provinces a cropped head was regard.
ed as a badge Of slavery or at least
Of subsection,
The hairdressers of Rome were per-
sons Of real Importance and charged
exorbitant prices for forming the hair
into fanciful devices. such as harps,
wreaths and diadems.

SAYS TAFT AND CABINET HAVE ALL MATTERS PERTAINING
 TO HARVESTER TRUST.

Oyster Bay. N Y., April 25.-"The talk about the suppression of the re port is nonsense, said Colonel Roosevelt tonight in a statement set ting forth his connection with the h. ternational Harvester company case. Colonel Roosevelt asserted that a meeting with his cabinet, at which MT. Taft was present. it was decided that the bureau of corporations be in- structed to complete it's investigation of the harvester company before any suit was instituted, following the usu- ai course of procedure in such cases. Mir. Taft, he added concurred in this decision.
 During the remainder of his admin istration, period of a year and a half, Colonel Roosevelt said, the com missioner of corporations was unable to complete his Investigation. He said that in the three years of the present administration, Mir. Taft at any time could have ordered the at torney general to bring suit against the harvester company or could have requested the commissioner of corpo- lhAAOAAS AO lAtaotNA Al6 AAANt0tAScbAOAAy but that Mir Taft had taken no action except that now taken, five days be- fore the Massachusetts primary"
 Colonel Roosevelt also said that when the Northern Securities suit was brought against the Morgan in terests in 1904. he was expecting to run for president, but that when the harvester matter came up in 1907 he knew he would not be candidate the following year, so that if the action taken in this case did secure the good will of any of the Morgan interests for anybody, it secured their good will for Mir. Taft"
 Colonel Roosevelt spent most of the afternoon in preparing his statement.
 q have just begun to fight" he said earlier in the day He received reports this afternoon of President Tafts criticism of him in his speech at Springfield, Mass. but declined to comment upon it, saying that he would make him reply in his speeches in Massachusetts.

Mr Williams spoke of his acquain- tance with the late Joseph Pulitzer and outlined the purpose and plans Of the institution endowed by Mir. Pu- litzer. He said in part:
 "A school of journalism can no more make journalists than a school of law can make lawyers, or q medical school make physicians. The utmost which any professional school in these vacations can do is to provide the knowledge and training which if man has ability will enable him to become lawyer, a physician, or a journalist. If this work be suc- cessful if out of these studies in close touch with the newspapers of the past, there is kindled in the mind of the newspaper man a sense of importance Of journalism iii the light of history, if he Is bred to habits of precision, of clarity, of direct expression and above all, of accuracy; if the course in the history and conditions of jour- nalism, which have the honor to of fer, gives a sense of the touch of the elbow with the great in our calling who in the past have awakened ma l tions, have quickened revolutions have carried great reforms and have been the mouthpieces of the majestic utteranee Of great and free people 1 believe the young student will gc out ready to become a journalist aware that he enters on the most diff ficult, the most arduous, but the most interesting. the most important ana the most inspiring of the tasks given to the minds, and still more, to the hearts of thinking men"
