tsleep.
Tho composure of mind -which It Is de
sirable to secure as a harbinger of sleep is
promoted by allowing tlmo, before retir
ing to rest, for tho subsidence of all on
forced mental activity. There should ba at
least an hour's Interval between work, no
matter what It may lie, and sleep, for If
work bo pushed up to tho last moment,
lcep will be driven away, or will be, In its
first and most precious stages, broken and
unrefroshlng. To turn resolutely from
work at a Used hour and plunge for a lit
tle time into a, novol or a newspaper, n
game or music, will often make all the
difference Itetwccn a bad and a good
night's rest. Position when in bed is a
very important factor in the production of
Bleep. Englishmen traveling on tho conti
nent are sometimes puzzled and distressed
by insomnia, until they diseoer that their
bodies, propped by enormous, squaro pil
lows, are at a much greater nnglo to tho
plane of the bed than thut in which they
are accustomed to repose at home.
The substitution of a small pillow for
the large one soon disposes of their wake
fulness. And so with children. The posi
tion in which they ure placed when put to
lied should bo carefully attended to, as
nightly variations in this may at least
postpone tho advent of sleep, which Is o
essential to the welfare of the growing
bruins. Very little things serve sometimes
to induce sleep. Thus, the mere turning
of a pillow and the application of' It oold
surface to tho head and faoe will, on oooa
siou, prove thu turning point in a struggle
with sleeplessness. New York Ledger.
