Alaska Women Pretty.

A visitor remarked about the good
looks of Alaskan women, and the fact
that they dress with taste. OF course,
our Northern women are pretty. "Why
shouldn't they be?" queries the Anchor
age Times. They enjoy absolutely
pure air. drink water as fresh as that
from a mountain spring, get plenty of
exercise. and take an active part in
community affairs. They are cosmo-
politan the same as the men are, and
well-read and well-informed. AS every
one knows. there is nothing so beauti-
full as good health. 1t is a joy even
to see an Alaskan girl swinging along
with free, firm tread instead of the
mincing step of her sister in the states,
who gives the impression she is step
ping on eggs. The Alaskan girl looks
you squarely in the eye, gives you a
frank hand-clasp and is sure of herself
ut all times.

ONES INABILITY TO SLEEP
Insomnia May Be Overcome by For
getting About 1t and Avoiding
Unnecessary Excitement.

If you don't sleep well don't worry
about it. Your lack of sleep isn't go.
ing to kill you or drive you insane
That is the substance of the advice
given by a doctor writing in the Amer
lean Magazine.
1t is advice that good many nerv-
Gus people need. observes the Kansas
City Star. How often do you hear
some one apprehensively complaining
that he lies awake "all night The
chances are that he only thinks he was
awake all night, and that in reality he
got several hours of sleep between the
spells of wakefulness. But even if he
was wakeful, it is nothing to be
alarmed about. Especially is it moth
ing to warrant taking medicine.
The way to got over insomnia Is to
pay no attention to 1t, and not to talk
about it. Sleep is largely matter of
habit. 1t depends on living ration
ally and going to bed ut a regular time.
You are likely to be wakeful If you
stir yourself up in the evening. Ii
you work at night or get deeply in
terested in anything you find 1t diff
cult to relax. That is the chief rea-
son for wakefulness after party. The
excitement of the crowd interferes
with sleep. The ideal way is to taper

STYLE FOR ARAB WEDDING
Bridegroom Must Ride Nervous Hor Sc
Without Reins or Stirrups, In
Middle Of Procession.

Coming through the streets of Al
giers Of an evening you may meet q
noisy procession that causes you to
wonder whether 1t is food riot or &
revolutionists' parade. This is an
Arab wedding procession, one of tn
most ingenious devices ever developed
for the embarrassment and mental tor.
tire Of the bridegroom, says a globe
trotter.
1t Is headed by the father of the
bridegroom, an elderly gentleman, who
PAGES sOberly ahead, out of the con-
fusion, attended by few philosophi-
cal friends, all clad in white. Be
hind him come a mob of young men
carrying torches and lanterns tied tc
the ends of poles, beating drums and
blowing tin horns, yelling at the top of
healthy voices. The center of the
procession is, made up Of particular
friends of the bridegroom, who burn
red and green flares in addition to
waving torches of the milder sort Be-
hind them is band of hired musi-
clans, trailed by all the small boys,
dogs and idlers of Algiers.
All this parade naturally attracts a
certain amount of attention. In the
middle of it, mounted on nervous
horse, very much embarrassed and
self-consciOus, rides the bridegroom.
He seems to ride very unsteadily and
awkwardly, but closer observation
shows he Is doing well to ride ut all,
for friends have taken the stirrups
from his feet and the reins from his
hands so that he has to hold on by
force of gravity and his sense Of equi-
librium. The red fire and the drums
generally stimulate his mount to SUI
activity, and it is a marvel
that none of the enthusiastic friends
get stepped on. The bridegroom. II
is safe to surmise, is not sorry when
his triumphal procession is over.
AS for the bride, she escapes all
this. A few of her girl friends &C.

her own in the afternoon when she
leaves her fathers house for her new

Covenanter Would Have.

One of the first railways laid In

there is no reason to doubt, gave care
full consideration to the question OF in

waited upon him he had decided the
exact amount of the damage that he
had suffered.
The official told the farmer that the
company had agreed to allow him the
sum of one hundred pounds in recon-
pense.

'"roo much so too much sol" was
the startling reply. II Wilma TAX the
hunder; I'll haze forty pounds and not

"Oh, is that the trouble?" was the
laughing response. "Well, here is the
order for one hundred pounds, which
you will receive when you call at the
office ut Perth"
William Reid accepted the order,
and a week later presented it at the
cOmpany's Office. A clerk asked him
to sign receipt, and this the farmer
did for forty pounds.

pounds, not forty" said the clerk,
counting out the money.
The old farmer was angry. II told
