Insomnia May Be
Overcome Mccoy
By DR.. Frank Mccoy

1 low often we hear the words,
II didn't sleep a wink all
night"
The greatest single cause of
sleeplessness is indigestion, pro-
ducing gas in the stomach and
intestines.
Any difficulty in breathing,
whether due TO asthma, enlarged
tonsils, or adenoids, will disturb
the sleep. High blood pressure as
well as a tickling cough will do
likewise. Itching of the skin,
whether due to a skin disorder
like eczema or due to a parasite
such as scabies, will keep the pa
tient wide awake. Too much ex-
citement late at night, excessive
amounts of coffee, and rich mid
night suppers also prevent sleep.
Undue noise. reading "thrillers"
before retiring keeps one awake.
Some form the bad mental habit
of worrying over business or do
mestic difficulties, which may de-
velop into chronic insomnia.
Here are some things to re-
member if you wish to overcome
insomnia:
rIRST: You should always be
sure that your evening meal
consists of good food combina-
tions. When you cannot sleep. tap
your abdomen with your finger
to see if the gas is the cause. In
nearly every case YOU will find
the stomach or intestines bloated
with gas. In this case get up and
drink some warm water and take
a warm enema, which will empty
the intestines so that the abdo-
men feels comfortable, and YOU
will be able to fall into a refresh
ing sleep.
Second: Those who toss and
turn instead of sleeping may be
mentally tired but are not physi-
cally tired. One should take
enough exercise in walking dur
ing the day to make you feel
muscularly tired at night. You
may find it helpful to take a tepid
bath before retiring. Others get
the best results with warm foot
bath. which draws the blood away
from the head
Third: Mental calmness is es-
sential to good sleep. Use some
simple mental suggestions. First
imagine that your body is very
heavy, that your arms and legs
feel like lead. Then suggest to
yourself that you are sleepy, men,
tally repeating the word Sleepy"
sleepy" sleepy" and you will
find yourself quickly lulled into
sleep.
1t doesn't matter how MANY
years you have suffered from
sleeplessness or how many reme-
dies you have tried, if you will
use the treatments yielding easily
to the simple measures which
anyone may use in his own home.

ness" If you will write to me in

difiicult aircraft for the average pilot
to manage, especially on. the ground

new ship. The Jump" take-on is q
new development which just now is
being perfected. In England jump
take-offs are being made to heights
of 80 to 40 feet. which is sufficient to
permit take-offs from small, tree in
closed fields. The jump take-off is
effected by the use of rotor having
blades with an adjustable pitch, set
by revolving them at their roots in
the pylon. The rotor is driven by a
clutch arrangement from the engine
until it is revolving at greater than
ordinary operating speed. The engine
then is disengaged and the power
transferred to the airplane propeller,
which provides forward drive. The
jump take-off takes place when the
pilot changes the rotor blades from
their natural" setting, at no angle of
attack, to a relatively high angle of
attack in which the rotor acts like q
giant propeller. lifting the whole
machine vertically into the air. The
jump is only possible for a few feet
of the ground and, unless forward
speed is Immediately picked up

dare us to try to disturb their tenants.
The soft, rotten bark would not hold
