HERE is CURE FOR INSOMNIA
Wrap a Wet Bandage Around the Leg
to Draw Blood From the Head,
Says a Physician.

A curious cure for sleeplessness
mas recently been reported. A piece
Of calico, about is inches wide and
2$4 yards long is rolled up like a
baDdage, and a third of it wrung out
Of cold water. The leg is then BAN
daged with this, the wet parts being
carefully covered by several layers
Of the dry part, as well as by a LAYER
of gutta percha tissue, and a stock
ING drawn on over the whole.
This causes dilation Of HE vessels
of the leg, thus diminishing the
blood in the head and producing
sleep. 1t has been found by Winter
nitz that the temperature in the ear
passage begins to fall a quarter of
an hour after the application of the
bandage, the decrease amounting to
O.4 degrees c., and the normal not
being again reached for from ~ to
two hours afterwards.
The writer has employed this
means of producing sleep for a
couple of years and finds it especial
ly useful in cases where there is con-
gestion of the brain. Sometimes he
has found it necessary to reapply
the bandage every three or four
hours, as it dried.-Family Doctor.

Poor Frank! Maisie looked at him
wistfuIly. Neither Of them had ever
owned fifty dollars at a time. And
Frank was close on thirty. That two
thousand dollars would have to drop
from the skies; nothing seemed less
possible. She watched Franks
slOuching figure with a heartache.
How shabby he was! The resolution
had already dwindled away. He was
only a poor clerk; he would never be
anything more.
They were walking among the
struggling visitors to the little place.
A nurse-giEl wheeled two fat infants
in a baby-caTriage. A ridicUlous-look-
ing little man with waxed mustaches
was approaching them. Probably he
was earning ten times as much as
Frank, thought Maisie, with a fierce
hatred of him. It began to dTizzle-a
fine penetrating rain that -blotted out
the sight of the sea. Both were in the
depths Of misery. Maisie opened her
umbrella and held it over Frank-the
action was instructive and demon
strated her unconscious maternal at
titude toward him. He linked his
arm through hers, but he did not take
the umbrella; he was far away, COM
posing. Even Maisie was forgotten
for the moment.
Maisie heard an exclamation be-
hind her and the fat little man came
painting toward her. Had she dropped
something? Probably a handkerchief.
But she would make the fat little
man run; it was her idea Of revenge
upon him for his mustaches and his
absurd, prosperous look. She heard
him blowing and painting. "Mees!
Meesr' he was calling. He was evil

But she loved him all the more for
his helplessness. She felt her eyes
flooding with tears again at the
thought of the future. Frank was
whistling a melody.
F-R-A-N- she had written,
and then the ferrule encountered a
soft and yielding substance that OBJ
liberated the fourth letter as her UNI
breIla point dragged it forth from its
hiding place. She looked curiOusly
upon the shapeless substance. 1t was
waxy, something like beeswax, and
as she looked at it in a disinterested
way~it was suddenly borne in upon
her that this strange, amorphOus
substance, probably some sea growth,
was exactly like their own natures,
plastic, ready to be beaten and mold
ed, to take any imprint that was made
in it. She flung it into the air and
turned to her sweetheart.
Frank, dear, if you are to get that
train home we had better be start
ing" she said.
He agreed, and they chung together
in one last embrace, to be the last
for goodness knew how long. Then
they turned their steps sadly toward
the station. They were upon a lonely
part of the sands, but half a mile
away the board walk terminated, and
the big hotels that fringed it were
not wholly devoid of guests. Little
figures of men and women dotted the
promenade. Maisie shuddered as they
two assembled the slope of the walk
and began that desolate walk through /
the dreary sea-fTont. It was like |
coming back from fairyland to the |
world of humanity again-that world |
which had despised and rejected them |
and had no place for them.

arm fiercely.

'Next," he instructed Simmons, ''see if you can communicate with Monsieur x"
 The operator speedily reported his success at that. Eldridge removed his glasses and polished their lenses.
 Thus, gentlemen" said he, from our circle of two-hundred-mile radius we have eliminated, strip ten miles wide. Naturally if this weakened send ing reaches only one hundred and ninety miles, and our antagonist re- ceives our message, he must be nearer than one hundred and ninety miles. We will now further reduce the strength of our sending and try again. "
 The younger men present broke into a shout.
 Good work" somebody cried. They crowded about, keenly interested in this new method Of man-hunting. Only Darrow, tipped back in his chair against the wall, seemed unexcited.
 To Jacks whispered question he shook his head.
 It's ingenious" he acknowledged, but he's on the wrong tack" That was as far as he would explain, and soon dropped into 8 slight doze.
 Throughout the greater part of the night the experiment continued. Bat. tery by battery the sending power of the instrument was weakened. Mile by mile the special train drew nearer until, by catching the prearranged sig nal, it determined just how far the new sending reached. Then Simmons tried Monsieur x. As the latter in. vsriably answered, it was, of course, evident that he remained still in the narrowing zone of communication It was fascinating work, like the draw ing of a huge invisible net.
 The reporters on the morning pa pers mastered only with difficulty their inclination to stay. They had to leave before their papers went to press, but were back again in an hour, unwilling to lose a moment of the game. A tension vibrated the little office. Only Percy Darrow dozed alcne in the corner. leaning back in his wooden armchair.
 At near four o'clock in the morning Simmons raised his head after a long bout of calling to announce that he could get no reply from Monsieur x.

The messages he sent over the wireless in .le Atlas Building grew more and more threatening and grandiose.

These threats grew more definite in character as time went on
