As we go to press, reports show that the race for the offices of Treasurer, Commissioner and Coroner is pretty close: Colvig for treasurer is ahead of Cronmiller; Smith and Madden are neck and neck for commissioner “nd Kel logg is only a few votes ahead of Us- sher for coroner. As many precincts have not reported it is impossible to predict the final result. For sheriff,S.ngler has almost as ma ny votes as both his opponents, Walk er and Earhart: of these two Walker is ■head. There seems no doubt that Singler will be the nominee, as his lead is now loo large to be overcome by la ter returns.

The following method is described as one which is almost certain to woe slumber with success: On going to bed you assume a comfortable attl tilde in which every muscle is relaxed, but not the attitude in which you are accustomed to go to sleep, though somethin: ig resembling it. Every move meat, coughing, yawning, is strictly repressed, especially tlie desire to turn I over. Tlie same attitude Is ma in tallied without change, constantly resisting the longing to move or turn over. As a rule, by tlie end of fifteen Oi twenty minutes of tills persistent main tenance of tlie same attitude you will find yourself growing very drowsy, and then, just as the desire to turn ovei becomes absolutely uncontrollable, you turn with the least possible eftort and assume tlie position tn wlifc. you hn bitunlly go to sleep, and natural sleep follows at once. This method, it Is claimed, seldom fails and should lie given a thorough trial, at least before reso to a drug to bring sleep The Post management has' made ar- rangements with the Portland Evening Telegram whereby we can give subscribers the advantage of a gigantic combination offer for a limited period.
