How to Sleep.
It is not uncommon to hear people
say "I was too tired to sleep" but it
Is not generally known bow great a
help it is at such times not to try to
sleep, but to go to work deliberately to
get rested in preparation for It. In
nine cases out of ten It is the unwill
ingness to lie awake that keeps us
awake. We toss and turn and wish we
could sleep. We fret, and fume, and
worry, because we do not sleep. We
think of all we hare to do on the fol
lowing day and are oppressed with
the thought that we cannot do it if we
do not sleep. First, we try one experi
ment to see if it will not make us
sleep, and wben it fails, we try another
and perhaps another. In each experi
ment we are watching to see if it will
work. There are many things to do,
any one of which might help us to
sleep, but the watching to see if they
will work keeps us awake.
When .we are kept awake from our
fatigue, the first thing to do Is to say
over and over to ourselves that we do
not care whether we sleep or not, in
order to imbue ourselves with a
healthy indifference about it It will
help toward gaining this wholesome in
difference to say "I am too tired to
sleep, and therefore, the first thing for
me to do is to get rested in order to
prepare for sleep. When my brain is
well rested, it will go to sleep; it cannot
help it. Wben it is well rested, it will
sleep Just as naturally as my lungs
breathe, or as my heart beats." Les
lie's Monthly.
All Might Again.
Opal, Wyo., May 16. After suffering
terribly fox four or five years Mr. A. J.
Kohner of this place has been com
pletely restored to good health. His
case and its cure is another proof of
the wonderful work DoddV Kidney
Pills can do. Mr. Kohner says :
"For four or five years I have been a
sufferer with Kidney trouble and a
pain over my Kidneys. I thought I
would give Dodd's Kidney Pills a trial
and I am glad I did so, for they have
done me good work and I feel all right
again."
Many cases are being reported every
week in which Dodd's Kidney Pills
have effected cures of the most serious
cases.
These strong testimonies from earn
est men and women are splendid trib
utes to the curative properties of
Dodd's Kidney Pills and judging by
these letters, there is no case of Kidney
trouble or backache that Dodd's Kid
ney Pills will not cure promptly and
permanently.
Men are still free to be the slaves of
passion, than which servitude there is
not a worse. .
Deafness Cannot Be Cured "
by local applications aa the j cannot reach tha
diseased portion oi the ear. There is only one
way to cure deafness, and that is by constitu
tional remedies. Deaf ness is caused by an in
flamed condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube iainQamed
Jou have a rumbling sound or imperfect hear,
ig, and when it is entirely closed. Deafness is
the result, and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh,
which is nothing but an inflamed condition of
the-mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that can
