\ woman writer in London paper says she has found a cure for sleeplessness. She calls it "Ay- zed" because it has to do with the letters of the alphabet. The title may puzzle Americans that are not aware that ''ay" is the sound a Cockney gives to the first letter of the alphabet, and that 'zed" is how the English pronounce "z". Here IS the scheme:
 Tonight, say, you are wakeful. Review your friends: how many men or women you have known or do know, whose Christian name begins with 4? l perscribe Christian names, because they are more lov- able, and lstable than surnames. You will find that it is like what We are told of drowning-all your life will pass before youn in a vision until you sink blissfully be- meath the waves of sleep before one letter is disposed of"

PRACTICAL ASSISTANCE

A movement to lend practical first-aid to the farmers, orchardists and gardeners of France and Bel gium whose land has been ravaged by war has been begun by the Royal Horticultural Society of England. The king and queen have given the scheme their patronage and it is being supported by all the leading horticulturists in that country.
 A fund is being raised to pur- chase agricultural implements and various materials and to send them to each of the devastated districts.
 The courageous French peasants are already at work trying to re- pair the damage done to their homes and farms. New scions have been grafted on decapitated fruit trees and gardens are being prepared for renewed cultivation.
 Like parts of Northern France, Belgium is a country of small land holders who have raised intensive culture to a fine art. Before the war each district had it's horicul- tural speciality. Ghent favored aga leas and begonias, Brussels roses and Elacs and chicary and Aershot
