If troubled with sleeplessness try
holding the eyes open instead of keep
ing them closed. In short time the
lids will droop. Do not allow them to
close at once, but hold open until they
become tired. Very often sound sleep
will come.-People's Home Journal.

Natural Ice Factory.

Late in autumn, after producing two
sets of blooms, the frost weed be-
comes a miniature ice factory and
forms crystals of 'ice" about the
cracked bark of the root. In each lit
tie broken rootlet there appear cakes
of ice" exactly right in size for the
refrigerator of fairy queen. AS yet
no botanist has been able to discover
the secret of the plants ice making.
The ice appears often long before ice
is formed on the ponds, and can be
found by digging up the deeply-set
rootlets. Two blooming seasons is an
other popularity of the plant. Early
in June is sends out a wealth of golden
yellow blossoms, having five petals
each and set at intervals upon the
thickly leaved stem. These blooms
mature and produce seeds. Then late
in August the plant flowers again, pro-
ducing blooms identical with those
of the earlier season.-St. Louis Star.
