Way to Woo Sleep.

The following method is described
as one which is almost certain to WOO
slumber with success. On going to
bed you assume comfortable atti-
tude in which every muscle is relaxed
but not the attitude in which you are
accustomed to go to sleep, though
something resembling it. Every move
ment, coughing, yawning, are strictly
repressed, especially the desire to
turn over. The same attitude is main
tanned without alange, constantly re-
sisting the longing to move or turn
over. r-. .. ..... ..
AS rule, by the end of 10 or 20
minutes of this persistent mainten.
ance of the same attitude you will
find yourself growing very drowsy
and then, just as the desire to turn
over becomes absolutely uncontroll-
able, you turn with the least posi-
BILE effort, and assume the position
in which you habitually go to sleep
and natural sleep follows at once.
This method, it is claimed, seldom
fails and should be given thorough
trial, at least before resorting to a
drug to bring sleep.

ERROR EASILY TO BE SEEN
Miner Went at Once to the Root of
the Trouble, as He Had 1t
Sized Up.

A miner, who was proud of his boys
attainments at school, one evening
picked up a home lesson book and
read from it quotation which ran
like this: .s:Some books should be tast-
ed, some swallowed, and some chewed
and igested-Bacon." Turning to
his boy, he said:

eat books at school, does tina? l know
you are very clever, but you cannot do

Young Fry Gets His Name Hooked
UP with Beery Murder as
Result of Damage Case.

The jury hearing the S., 200 damage
case of Tom Fry against Rose Long, re-
ported TO Judge Layton Wednesday af-
ternoon, after two and one-half hours
deliberation, returning a verdict for the
plaintiff in the sum of 500.
Fry alleged that the defendant, Rose
Long, widow of the late Perry Long,
had enticed his wife, Pearl Fry, to leave
him, and so alienated her affections that
she would not return and live with him.
A number of witnesses were subponaed
by both parties, the principal witness
being the plaintiffs wife. During cross
examination she admitted that after she
had lett her husband she was about to
return to him, when several people told
her that Tom (the plaintifO was being
suspected of knowledge or connection
with the murder of David Berry," the
aged man hacked to death last spring in
the little Western Ohio waiting station
at the Nickerson club house, east of
town. These statements caused her to
change her mind. She denied that Mrs.
Long had told her of this matter but
could recall only one person who had
impaired the information-that was the
murdered mans brother.
1t is rumored that the jury had pre-
pared a verdict for the plaintiff of 81 90
and costs, but fearing such verdict
wonld not be accepted made their find

INGREDIENTS FOR
MAKING OF A HOME

bloom, and the air laden with the fra
GRANGE Of spring.
As the closing day casts its shadows
over the world, fading rays Of the deciin-
ing sun pierce through the latticed win
dows, and over cradled innoeencea moth
er croons her lullaby.
As the breaking dawn calls to activity
the waking world we see him on whom,
for her, age never descends-we see them
as, locked in each others embrace, they
stroll down the garden walk. Leaning
over the gate, he implants upon her brow
parting kiss. As he passes from view
we see her wave aloft her embracing arm
and from the distance comes hisresponse.
We say: There is a home. And so it is.
1t is not necessary that it be sumptuous
to be home, It is only necessary that
Love reign therein.
1t is not necessary that it be poor to be
home. 1t is only important that kind
ness shall be the ruling spirit.
A nation that ignores the welfare and
the happiness of the home is a nation
doomed. Men do not defend tenements.
The only excuse for government and
law is to maintain the possibility of the
home. We need not machine-made
homes nor machine-made men.
For the home we need only Justice to
make it possible, Peace to make it whole,
Kindness to make it inviting, Compan-
ionship to make it blest, Love to make it
holy, and the laughter Of a little child to
make it divine Omaha Chancellor.

In General Huerta.
Washington, Feb. 20.-The detailed
accounts Of the overthrow of Former
President Madero of Mexico and the
circumstances by which his downfall
was accomplished, together with sub
sequent events in the Mexican capi-

felt in Washington when it was learn
ed that General Huerta had been pro-

The treachery with which the late
dispatches from Mexico reeke1
brought expressions of disgust from
all quarters in Washington.
Many in Washington, who have
hitherto expressed trust and conf

tanned that the series of betrayals and
executions accompanying the downfall
of Madero would indict the Mexican
people before the world. Many who
have hitherto been opposed to inter
