Dreams a Good Test.

Dreams are n good test of the need
of sleep, and many times answer the
question of overwork or idleness, ac-
cording to DIR. Percy G. Stiles, says
the Boston Journal.
"It is possible to judge by ones
dreams whether one needs sleep" he
said. IF the dreams are of ram
bling variety, the kind that seem to
pop from nowhere or anywhere, it is
a pretty good sign that you are not
oyertired. On the other hand, if the
dreams are a continuation of the days
worries, the chances are that you are
oyertired. Dreams remote from the
DAYS work are a vacation. but dreams
connected with the days work are
overtime.
ITO 90 to sleep. get the body and
mind comfortable. The body is easier
to make comfortable than the mind.
A rundown, a bath and little bit b
eat help bring that about. To com
pose the mind. read some familiar book
or poetry. That soOthes the mind. for
no exertiOn is necessary to read it,"
Doctor Stiles said that the heaviest
sleep eeae orally comes about an hour
after ;,:eeo begins.

Were Brought Together.

mother died while the lads were very
young, leaving one to be adopted by
q neighbOr named Kaufman and the
other child to be taken to Serbia TO
live with an uncle named Alfalfa. Thus
the brothers received different names.
AS the boys grew older they CORE
sponded, but never met. At the age of
fifteen Kaufman came to America
and while he was working his way up
in the business world his brother be-
came noted physician, distinguishing
himself In the Balkan war and gaining
prominence In Belgrade. With the out
break of the present hostilities he
gained fresh laurels and was selected
TO serve on a commission to America.
When Captain Alfalfa reached Amer
lea his first thoughts were of his
brother. He sought the aid Of the
Pittsburgh police In the search and
Kaufman was located.

Sergeant Hears Call of

Chlcago.-It is necessary to say that
exacting and utterly devoid of senti-
ment. 1t Is only fair to say that Mar
tin Mulvihlll Is a police sergeant of the
Chicago avenue station. 1t Is fact
there was q fire one evening recently
In the apartment building Of four sto-
ries at 543 North Michigan avenue (old
Pine street,.
When Sergeant Mulvihill espied that
fire he loped to a call box, sent In an
alarm, and turned. He saw Mrs. John
Geisler lowering her infant brother
from the third floor by a rope Of twist
ed sheets. He saw the heads Of
frightened occupants projected from
numerous windows-projected, that Is.
at such lines as the clouds Of smoke
permitted. The whole building was
ablaze, and the fine oak woodwork OF
time when they builded better
popped merrily In the flames.
In Nothing Flat.
Mulvihill tore for the back door, and
made the four flights in nothing fiat.
Charles Snery, who lived there with
his wife and child, had started down.
Snery slipped, dropped the child a
flight, and himself fell far enough to
work q fractured leg.
Mulvihill grabbed the child and
Snery and bore them out and sent
them to q hospital. Then he went back
for more. His face was burned and
his clothing was a sight. (Oh, coppers
buy their own clothing, no matter) He
found Mrs. Otto Miller and her two
children of three and six years and
took them out. His breath was get
ting short, but he went back for more.
On the second floor he found Mrs.
NJ. Miller and George Brisley, an actor.
He took them out to safety down the
smoke-choked stairway. Now his cap
was gone his collar was askew, his
coat was on the point of disappearing.

washed clothes on the banks of river
near Belize, British Honduras.
The mother had left her babies in a

The alligator was captured before 1t

the dead bodies of the twins were
found, almost unmarked.

BLAME GYPSIES FOR Jazz
Music and Dance Originated With
Romany Tribe In Southern Part
Of Giuseppe.

Akron, O.-Most folks thought the
jazz bands and the jazz music came
from somewhere around New Orleans
and that New York finished the job
by introducing the jazz dance. But
Or. Oscar Junek, educator of this city,
says the music and dance come from
the lsigane Gypsies, who roam the
southern part Of Europe.
Doctor Junek was born In Sllesia,
Austria, and says he often saw the
Gypsies stop to do the jazz dance.
He thinks some American dancing
