Probably great deal more harm IS
done by hypnotic drugs than by in
somnia itself. Some people attach too
much Importance to wakefulncss at
night. An hour of watchful waking at
or 3 a: IN. is not more Injurious to
the system than an hour Of sober re-
Election at or 3 o'clock p. m. 1t only
seems worse. This is perhaps the rea-
son why Baron Munchasen, the pa
tient who lies and thinks for an hour
or SO after usual go-aslcep time, al
never slept wink till the milkman
got around to reassure him all was
well with the municipal water
There Is a very common obsession
. that slceplessness is pretty sure to
send the victim to an insane hospital
fact insomnia is never q cause of in
sanity.
AS we get along in years and en-
gage less actively in affairs than VIC
did In our prime. sleep becomes less
nccdful for the process of repair.
There isn't so much repair to be done.
We don't subject the machine to so
much wear and tear; mctabolism is
slower and more limited
In the days of our youth we needed
1t and nature gave it gladly. With
advancing years We need it far less
yet we are inclined to crawl to bed
even earlier in the evening. No Won
der we don't fan asleep.
Work in Your Garden. .
Il When one finds the mind inclined to
keep running long after the clock has
been put out and the cat wound, there
is no cause for alarm. Take lunch
at bedtime. Oxygen is another good
one. 1t may be inhaled freely and
acts best If taken in large circles, as
Tor instance in a run around the block
at bedtime. Fatigue Is natures own
narcotic. Sleep is brought about by
the accumulation Of fatigue poisons in
the blood. The dose depends upon the
individual of course. Everybody knows
how soothing and calmative a garden
is when well hoed and thoroughly
weeded. If a generous dose of lux
solaris is added to the formula it is
still better: any amount short of
actual crythema soaris, or, as a mere
layman might say. sunburn.
Warm feet, n cool breeze or draft
over the bed. the full freedom OF one
full-sized bed with nom saggins
springs and mattress, and unretardcd
traffic through the alimentary canal
are things the slcepless should not
ignore.

.EMBDEN HOUSE BURNED
LOSS WILL Be $500

Embden, Me-, Nov. 29.-The two-storv
house owned and occupied by Kingsbury
Is. Foss in the town of Embden, one and
one-half miles from Scion bridge was
burned to the ground about noon on
Thanksgiving day. It was uninsured and
the loss is said to be about $500 Owing
to the cold weather Mr. Foss was keen
ing fire in the basement to prevent fruit
stored there from freezing. The stove was
so located that the funnel was distended
outside through the rollway, and from
this temporary chimney the fire was COM
municated to the exterior of the house
Lack Of water and ladders rendered the
work of the fremen ineffective, and in
spite of their efforts they were unable to
check the flames until the house was de-
stroyed.
The greater part OF the furnishings
were saved. although furniture stored in
an upper chamber belonging to other
parties, was burned. The barn, located a
few rods from the house, was saved, as
was also storehouse, In which the fam
lily will reside for the present 1t Il
doubtful If the house is rebuilt.

PRESIDENT STAND IN
RELATION TIC MONROE
DOCTRINE BY POLLARD

London, Nov. o9.-Professor A. r.
Pollard said in a recent address that
in some respects President Wilson had
given the coup de grace to the Monroe
Doctrine but from another aspect he
has extended Il to apply to the world.
The doctrine as originally framed put
a veto on the intervention of any
European Power. in the Western
Hemisphere and the nited States, on
the other hand, undertook to refrain
from forceful influence i'll Europe. But
in the meanwhile the United States
had grown too large and the world too
small for such a policy. The world
had become a unity. this war was as
sentiaiy a civil war and as in the case
of all civil unions the first quarrel was
over the articles Of association The
quarrel turned on the question wheth-
er the world should be ruled by the
force of argument Or the argument OF
force.
Lord Bryce said that if the United
States had refrained from joining the
Allies. and if Germany had CHANGED
to win the war, America would still

protection 10 the Germans who occu-
pied a large area OF land in Southern
Brazil. Those settlers, enjoying their
freedom from the Imperial restraint.
were not at all anxious, as he found
when travelling in Brazil, for any such
intervention. but Germany would GER
tainly have found their need for pro
lection" and for the extension Of Ger

GERMANS ACCREDIT LOSS
DUE TO WEATHER

Amsterdam, Nov % Correspond :
cnce Of The Associated Press}--The
German official view Of the disaster
which befen the Zeppelin fleet in
France. is that the loss of several air
ships was due entirely to weather con-
ditions which are unlikely to occur
again 1t is asserted that the disaster
is not regarded as any argument
against the use Of the Zeppelin as a
military weapon. The official Allge-
meme Zeitung. says:
Enemy reports at first stated that
as many as six Zeppelins had been
lost, bot it is now indisputably estab-
lishod that only four We're brought
down. The real and only cause of the
disaster is to he found in the abnormal
weather conditions. One OF those who
took part in the journey states that
the fog on the coast was so dense that
it was impossible to see farther than
three to five yards.
a loss of four Zeppelins is not a
matter of Indifference even for the
German air service, but the principal
and at the same time satisfactory, fact
remains, however much we may de-
plore the accident. that the destruc-
ton of the airships was not the result
of English counter attacks, but was
solely owing to a concentration of I'M
fortunate circumstances.
eve cannot be surprised if England
seizes the opportunity for using our
misfortune as soothing syrup for her
population, which has lately had over
much experience of what war means.

our advantage if the English do lose
