If You DO Not Sleep Well.

should you be a restless sleeper.
should sleep come to you only at fits
and starts, try simple remedies, and
do not plunge into narcotics or stimu-
lants-at least not until the others
have failed. A famous English physi-
clan is quoted as saying, Il can cure
the worst case of insomnia in this
manner: When the patient has re-
tired, give her heaping bowl of
bread and milk, with just a dash of
salt to season it. This will draw the
blood from the head to the stomach
it will quiet the nerves and put the
entire body in a healthy glow, and in
ninety-nine cases out of a hundred
the patient falls into healthy, rest
full sleep" Another tasty dose to take
which will induce sleep is a cold or
ange just before retiring There are
certain sedative as well as stimu-
lating qualities in an orange, and it
is probably one of the most effica-
cious fruits that can be taken for this
purpose.

Do you suppose the romantic per
sonages of the past suffered as we
do from colds in the head and other
kindred affections? Picture Cleopa-
ira when preparing to apply the asp

ings to blow her nose violently. Fancy
Antony stopping in his grafton over
the dead body of Caesar to sip a glass
OF water or to slip into his mouth a
1uJube lozenge from the sleeve pocket
OF his toga. Imagine Henry V, unable
TO breathe properly through his nose
on account of a severe rheum con-
tracted in the mostly trenches of
Agincourt, adjuring his troops, "Once
bore unto the breach, dear friends,
once bore" or words to that effect.
Or Juliet, languishing on her balcony,
sneezing violently in the midst OF her
ardent responses to Romeo, because
the nights had drawn in chill at We
roma and she was rather too lightly
clad. Such ribaId fancies are unthink-
able. Before the snufies Romance

GOOD ENOUGH AS A SAMPLE
Quality of Helping Was All Right, but
In Quantity 1t Left Much to
Be Desired.

Jacky had been asked out to a
"grown-up" dinner. Swelling with
pride, he took his seat at the bot
tom of the table and looked round
slightly aWestruck-at the imposing
collection of aunts and uncles.
Then his attention became fixed on
the ancient relative who was carving
an enormous turkey, and his mouth
watered as he saw the big helpings
being handed round.
But the carver, who did not know
much about little boys, cut off a tiny
portion for Jacky.
