HOnOrGd By Friends

New York, Feb Ga gold loving
cup was presented yesterday to Chair
man William F. McCombs, of the
democratic national committee, by
his associates in the recent campaign.
The presentation speech was made by

paign committee, and Martin j. Wade
national committeeman from Iowa,
for the state committeeman.
In presenting the cup, Mr.. Mack
said that Chairman McCombs' success
in having his candidate made the
convention nominee at Baltimore
made him the logical choice for
chairman, and added:
This cup will remind you of the
great contest that you waged so sue
cessfully and the victory that came to
the party in the last memorable con-
test in which you, as national chair
man, elected a democratic presi-
dent, a democratic congress and
democratic governors in more states
than ever before in the history of the
party"
Chairman McCombs in thanking
the committee said he had resumed
the practice of law in New York with
"the inspiration of many delightful
friendships that | have had the oppor-
tunity of forming among you and !
hope that they will continue, both in
personal and political way"

SEVEN HOURS SLEEP;
NO MORE, NO LESS
You Can't BE Fit Otherwise, and May
Turn Criminal.

Cincinnati, O., Feb. 6-"Seven hours
sleep is all that is necessary for any
human being, and if obtained regular
ly in certain hours, nightly, will kecD
the body and mind in a healthy state,
said Dr. Foertmeyer. coroner Of Gin
cinnati, regarded as an authority On
criminology
Much of the disease of today is due
to too much or too little sleep. A per-
son who sleeps over seven hours has
had too much rest, which makes the
mind sluggish and the muscles lazy. On
the other hand the person who has not
had sufficient sleep is mentally AMI
physically unfit to perform his or her
duties with that snap and vim found
in persons who have had the required
rest.
Men and women who commit crime
as rule, are long sleepers Thei"
minds grow weak from too much sleep
and they acquire the don't care
habit, which often results in crime.
Make it a rule to sleep seven hours
and you will be better for it, mentally,
physically and financially"
