To Get 10 Sleep

NEW YORK. - For those who
have trouble getting to sleep, there
is a formula on the market which
is designed primarily to remedy
that trouble. Although most people
bother about how to stay awake. or
how to wake up, once asleep, there
are many thousands Of humans
who are tortured night after night
by inability to get to sleep.
DR.. James Bender never had any
trouble like that, although he did
lose some hours over a book he
was writing. The title of it is How
to Sleep"
Although the book touches on all
phases of sleeping-from the fine
art of snoring to how to get the
children to bed-it is chiefly aimed
at bringing comfort to the insom-
MACS, the people who can't go to
sleep.
For those who want to try 1t, DR..
Bender has a 15-point program for
producing sleep. Here is what he
recommends:
1. Sleep in a good bed. Make
sure it's big enough for you.
2. Sleep on a pillow that fits you.
8. Dress your bed right. DR..
Bender even advocates a daily
change of linen for severe cases of
housekeeping.
a. Don't sleep in a room decor
ated in exciting colors. Pastel
green's and blues are the most rest
full shades.
