A Way to Woo Sleep.

The following method is describ
ed as one which is almost certain
to WOO slumber with success. On
going to bed you assume a COM
Portable attitude in which every
muscle is relaxed but not the atti-
tude in which you are accustomed
to 90 to sleep, though something re.
sembling it. Every moment, cough
ing, yaWning, are strictly repressed,
especially the desire to turn over
The same attitude is maintained
without change, constantly resisting
the longing to move or turn over
AS a rule, by the end of fifteen
or twenty minutes of this persistent
maintenance Of the same attitude
you will find yourself growing very
droWsy and then, just as the desire
to turn over becomes absolutely
uncomfortable. you turn with the
least possible effort, and assume
the position in which you habitual-
ly 90 to sleep and natural sleep
follows at once. This method, it is
claimed, seldom fails and should be
given a thorough trial, at least be-
fore resorting to a drug to bring
sleep London Globe.

Made possible because no longer

The law that makes a man respon-

For lie unduly taken, without cause.

Of regal splendor, man may revel in
His thirst for blood, and Natures

A charnel house for all who WELD

wildfire spreads!
Our wildwood friends must crouch
and hide awhile
II they their lives would save. Just

As in old Roman days, in wood and

The gladiatoriaI spirit may prevail,
And man may kill, uumindful of

And manly O. triumph in his every

the fawn unmothered mourns--
the starving brood
OF nestlings cry in vain for food
and care?
A man, forsooth, must have his
pastime;-then
Why chide him that his ways are
not your own?
Pity him, rather, that his heart is
cold
To noble instincts; that the humane
side
Still slumbers undiscovered SSin his
breast.

The Ruling Passion

When fatF er came from work at
night
Beforeh hid wash his hands and face
Or hang his hat upon the peg,
His glance would wander round
the place,
And if dear mothers sunny head
Was not within his visions ken,
He'd search for her from room to
room,
Upstais and down and all, and
then
He'd stop and ask,
"Whcre's Mother?"
But il he found her in her chair,
He'd potter off about the lot,
And pick a mess of early greens,
Or fix a chicken for the pot;
He'd mend a fence, or set a hen,
Or do some other hOmeIy chore
With only now and then a glance
Toward the half open kitchen
door
That seemed to ask,
Where's Mother"
When mother left us sorrOwing
He followed her within a day;
And while we laid white flowers
around
His smooth brushed hair, as
white as they,
We could but think that when the
light
And beautyof that wondrous place
Burst on his newly-quickened gaze,
He must have raised an eager face
And simply asked:
Where's Mother?"

Use Plenty of Lemons.

No family should ever be without
lemons. Their uses are almost with
out enumeration. The juice of a
lemon in hot water, taken or
awakening in the morning. is an ex-
cellent liver corrective and for stout
women is better than any anti-fat
medicine ever invented. A dash of
lemon juice in plain water is an ex-
Cellent tooth wash 1t not only re.
moves tartar, but also sweetens the
breath and leaves ones mouth de-
lightfully clean and cool.
The finest of manicure acids is
made by putting tearpoonful in a
cup of warm water. This removes
most stains from the cuticle and
nails, and loo5ens the cuticle at the
base of the nails more satisfactorily
than can be done by using a sharp
instrument. A little diluted lemon
juice applied at night with a soft
rag is a delightful bleach for the
skin. Lemon juice applied out
wardly will allay the irritation caus-
ed by the bites of mosquitoes and
