regulations for the future management

Somehow, we feel that they ought to,

The great covenant, in prescribing
such things as a universal cight-hour
working day for those who labor with
their hands, the employment of women,
equal wages for the sexes (possibly also
daylight saving and the temperature
of our baths) makes righteous the sug-
gestion, if not the demand, that it be
amended to prescribe regulations for

We desire to make two or three con-
trbutions more to a discussion of a
decade of opera at the Metropolitan
which was interrupted some weeks ago
by the pressing needs of contempora-
neous and current record. 1t is not
the intention further to pursue the
subject in critical detail, but only to
recall the Incidents which were prod
ucts of the war and, therefore, belong
in a peculiar way to social history. A
new period came in when the United
States became embroiled in the strug-
gle. and the chief incidents of the last
of CAese, at least, must be still fresh in
the popular mind. The ultimate eff
feet of the war upon our opera has not
yet been felt and we shall, therefore
not undertake to analyze it. There are
many things which would give us pause
were we willing even to attempt to do
so. For instance: until we shall have
had time carefully to inspect the cove

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 ia advice that a good many nerv-
Gus people need. observes the Kansas
City Star. How often do you hear
some one apprehenslvely 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 II he
was wakeful, 1t is nothing to be
alarmed about. Especially Is it moth
ing to warrant taking medicine.
The way to get over insomnia Is to
pay no attention to 1t, and not to talk
about 1t. Sleep Is largely a matter OF
habit. 1t depends on living ration
ally and going to bed at regular time.
You are likely to be wakeful IL 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
off the days activities as evening
comes.

JUDGE CITIES BY POLICEMEN
Serves as Criterion for Municipal
tiles, Says Writer.

It used to be said that~each coun-
try could be known by the Jews who
lived within its borders. In the same
way every city can be judged by the
character Of its policemen, writes Hen
dirk Willen van Loon, in Century Mag
azine.
In Christiania the policeman is a
mild and amable citizen In rather
shiny coat, and none too neat, who
stands In the middle of the roadway
and tries to maintain some semblance
of order in the democratic muddle of
the city's traffic.
In Stockholm the policeman Is q
walking arsenal, with sword and pis-
tol and brass helmet, and the ar
rest of disorderly person becomes
an act Of state. There the policeman
represents the high authority Of a
proud country. He fulfills his duty
with q stern severity. He Is the SYM
Dol of law and established order. Let
no one touch these fundaments of "A
well-regulated commonwealth.
Inv Copenhagen the policeman is
neither the happy-go-lucky citizen who
patrols the streets of Norway nor Is
he creature of resplendent glory like
his colleague in Sweden. He, strikes
q happy medium. In this he Is an ex-
cellent representative Of land where
the art of sensible and peaceful living
seems to have been brought to its high
est perfection. If only the chauffeurs
of the Danish capital would learn how
to drive their cars we should not have
a single complaint to make against a
country where everybody seems well
fed, where beggars are as scarce as
very rich people and where the wom-
en- live up to the best traditions Of the
charming china which Is made in the
royal residence of Denmark.

One of the first railways laid In

ture of stanch old covenanter at
Whinnyknowe who was subjected to a
loss that called for compensation from
the railway company. William Reid,
there Is no reason to doubt, gave care
full consideration to the question of In
jury, and when the railway official
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.
"a hunder pounds!" exclaimed the
old covenanter. Il wanna touch 1t.

"Oh, Is that the troubleT" was the
laughing response. swell, here Is the

you will receive when you call at the

William Reid accepted the order,
and a week later presented 1t ut the
company's office. A clerk asked him
to sign receipt, and this the farmer
did for forty pounds.
"You are to receive one hundred
pounds, not forty" said the clerk,
counting out The money.

Human Engine REQUIRES Fuel.

The human body, especially as re-
CARDS nutrition, has justly been COM
pared to an engine. If steam engine
is to perform certain amount of work
it. must be supplied with fuel. and the
quantity Of fuel must be in proportion
to the work to be performed, observes
a scientist. In like manner, also, man
to be able to act, requires fuel, which
we call food; and, like the engine, the
person who has to perform greater
amount Of work will also require a
greater supply Of food. Besides, the
human engine does not stop for q Sec
ond In its work, for even in the pro-
foundest sleep heart and lungs are un-
interruptedly active. From this fol-
lows that as long as we live we are
compelled to supply the body with ever
new fuel. He who neglects this duty
will perish; his engine comes to a
standstill.
