He snores both ways and the outgo ls fully equal Co the Intake. His hee-haws are nothing short of uervc-racking. The result is ] am growing thin and frayed for lack ot sleep. Dear is becoming concerned about me and suggests that my sys- tenn needs tonic with iron In it. Bless bis soul. he does not know that what my system needs is sleep. and would die rather than tell him. for then he would lie awake an night and Che result would be that he would soon be unable Co work and keep Che larder stocked. Besides, it would hurt his feelings to learn that it Is his snoring that is driv- ing me headlong Co an early death.
 During the summer months when there is uttc darkness I get along fairly well. Dear goes Co work In Che morning at 2 and I usually get two hours sleep In tho forenoon and three In the afternoon and the result Is that manage Co keep up fairly we'll.
