THE SLEEP YOU GET is THE
SLEEP YOU NEED

1t has always seemed to me that the
popular notion that bachache pain
IN the back or a weak back" signi-
fies kidney trouble" had its origin
in the pictures the old time quacks
and nostrum mongers constantly ex-
hibited to the public, of victims bent
forward, hand on flank, anxiously
registering craving for a box of pills
or a pair of kidney plasters or what
ever the nostrum might be. The
truth Is that Bright's disease (neph-
ritis) rarely causes any pain or dis
comfort in the back.
In like manner the popular fear of
insomnia is kept active, If not inspir-
ed, by the impressive pictures Of wret-
ched sufferers constantly exhibited
to prospects by modern nostrum MAX
ers. In all of these pictures the VIC
tim is plainly straining to keep awake
so that he can worry about the loss
of sleep.
Now I like my sleep as we'll as the
next fellow. know something about
the physiology of sleep and its value
in maintaining ones health, effic-
iency, good spirits and good looks, II
any. Too, have a. casual under
standing of the effects of loss of sleep
on the physical and mental well be-
ing. I believe I may require an av-
erage ration of eight hours sleep, but
If circumstances prevent me from do
ing a reasonable amount of honest
work. play, exercise, then six hours
or less is plenty. On the other hand,
II can put in several hours massag-
ing the lawn or messing up the garden
or mutilating hedge or polishing the
car, then I can do with nine hours
sleep.
The belly breathing exercise, for
from six to a dozen mutations, is a
great help for persons who find it
difficult to relax and get to sleep
nights. Send stamped envelope

structions, If you wish to try it. II
you use any other name than Belly
Breathing I'll send no instructions.
The little lesson in physiology I
hope to teach today is this, that peo-
pie who do hard physical work, labor,
play, exercise, require more sleep than
people who live by their wits. AS a
general rule we may say that the
sleep you get is the sleep you need,
and if you don't need it you shouldn't
worry when you don't get it.
Parasites and people who earn their
own living by their wits, are the least
likely to suffer in health as q result of
scanty sleep rations, but they are the
first to complain. Instead Of COM
planning and crying for sympathy for
the dreadful affliction of insomnia"
! (Which Is a spurious an ailment as
dyspepsia" or nervous exhaustion')
these CHASTITY maniacs ought to spare
their friends the tales of nocturnal
vlgilS, and try what a bit of honest
work will do for them anything to oc-
cupy their self-centered mind and stir
up a little oxidation in their lazy
muscles. Nothing better for the pur-
pose than a regular daily walk of five

Three Black SpOts

l
The Women's Organization for Ma.
tional Prohibition Reform is not fool
ing itself about the difficulty OF
changing the United States from pro-
hibition to a more liberal outlook on
the liquor question. It knows the
battle will be hard and arduous and
so its leaders are sending out warn
ings that the fight has just begun,
despite the fact that all states which
have SO far expressed themselves have
ratified the repeal amendment.
Proof Of the cautious attitude Of the
prohibition reform group is offered
by map of the United States which
recently was sent out, showing some
states in white and others in various
standings ranging down to black.
White states are listed as definitely
anti-prohibition; lightly shaded ones
are considered good prospects; those
more heavily shaded are listed as
hopeful; the heaviest shaded ones as
doubtful and the black ones as dry.
In the latter classification are only
Kansas, Oklahoma and Arkansas,
three commemorative lying in the
heart of the country.
In the doubtful class are Idaho,
Utah, Nebraska, Tennessee, Missis-
sippi, Alabama, Georgia and South
Carolina.
States with good prospects are
Oregon, Colorado, New Mexico, Min
nesota and Florida, while the hope
full ones are The Dakotas, Texas,
Iowa, Kentucky, West Virginia, Vir-
ginia, North Carolina, Maine, New
Hampshire and Vermont.
The others, including Montana, our
western neighbor, are classified as
wet.
North Dakotans can estimate the
accuracy Of this classification only
on the basis of their own state and
from that standpoint it seems sound
The chances of prohibition
repeal in this state, based on recent
lndices, really are hopeful. In fact
some Of the vets are confident.
Thirteen states can block ratifica-
ton of the amendment and of the 48
In the union II are listed as dry or
doubtful. The vets dare not lose
more than one of the hopeful states
or the repeal will be rejected.
On the other hand, they are not
conceding the loss OF any state, in
sisting that If proper work is done
any state may wind up in the wet
column.

Iowa's Agrarian Outrages
(Ghfco on Tt.ih,,Y,ol

Governor Herring OF Iowa acted
with courage and decision in pro-
claiming martial law in seven coun-
ties where excited farmers had taken
the law into their own hands. In
two he established military courts.
The region is one in which the Farm
ers Holiday association made itself
conspicuous by ill-judged and futile
STRIKES" The movement got out of
control. From the earlier sporadic
instances of violence it proceeded to
the storming of a courthouse and
the infliction of indignities, even to
the threat of hanging, on a Judge
who couldn't be forced to promise to
stop foreclosure proceedings in all
cases that came before him. He
showed himself worthy Of the high
est traditions Of the bench.
In state Of farmers there is, out
side of the infected area, and even
there, except among the thoughtless
and hot-headed and those shiftless
hangers-on who In country as in city
welcome any chance to make trouble,
only condemnation for this lawless-
ness. There is sympathy for the
plight of the farmers, none for the
cruel excuses into which they have
been goaded by the smooth takers
who have duped them. Meanwhile,
the Farmers Holiday association,
which calls itself national and the
number Of whose members is en-
tirely insignificant compared with
the noise it makes, has ordained an
other fruitless strike" That vet
eran statesman and sometime glory
Of the Nonpartisan League of North
Dakota, Mr.. Townley. has been giving
the association the benefit OF his fl
nancial wisdom.
Iowa has been full of prosperous
farmers: of farmers who sold their
land at high prices and retired to
towns to live upon their incomes, now
shadowy SO far as they were invested
IN farm mortgages. They are and
were essentially conservative. This
local madness hasn't touched them,
any more than it has the mass of
their occupation elsewhere. They
await better times, without too much
confidence In their legislative reliev-
ers. In some respects this Iowa ere
bellion" recalls that of Captain Dam
lei shays in Massachusetts, in 1895.
Taxes, debts, the burdens Of the Re-
volution, a woefully deprecated cur
rency, stirred discomfort, especially
in the western counties. From COM
mittees and manifestoes, cries for
more bad money, wrath against the
lawyers, demands for the abolition of
the Court Of Common Pleas, tax re-
duction, the malcontents went on to
take arms and violently prevent ses-
sions Of the courts. Finally, they
had to be put down by the militia.
After nearly $50 years economic
and financial distress In a few Iowa
counties has produced q milder and
diminished form Of the old desperate
remedy. The country has advanced
and learned great deal. though, as
in every depression of the past. be-
lief in the magic power of more paper
money has revived.
