tel where Florence spends the sum-
mer, cottagers and week enders APP
pear on the ballroom floor for the
weekly dance. On these occasions
Florence dances with so many men
she can't remember all their names.
1t was after one of these Saturday
night dances that Florence found she
was wearing fraternity pin. A
blond-haired boy whom she had just
met cOaXed her to take the pin while
sitting beneath the moon. Florence
kept the pin for several days and
then became anxious over the owners
failure to return for it. SO she placed
the following advertisement in the To-
cal paper:
young man with blond hair who
gave girl fraternity pin while sitting
by the sun dial during a dance at the
hotel last Saturday night will please
call for his pin. New York Sun.

Or do you dread going to
bed, only to stare, sleep
less, at the walls2 The
difference between sleep
ing and staring is simply
a matter of nerves.
When your nervous
system is in a sound con-

sleep well. But when
your nerves are worn out
and beyond your control,
your rest is broken and
your awakening leaves
you languid and irritable.
Doctors know that
much of the nerve dis
orders result from tea
and coffee drinking. The
drugs in these drinks
over-stimulate, oftencaus-

result from disturbing the
