session, and it doesn't own the business.
It is this sort of thing that hiereaes popular disgust -with politic
ians. Individually they'inay be, and often are, good business men, but
as soon as they are elected to conduct the people's business, they seem
to utterly ignore common business principles and proceed to conduct
the people's affairs as if they alone had an interest in them.
If certain changes in the rules were so important, there is no reason
why the leaders of the congress could not have had a preliminary
meeting and made the same arrangements as have been made today.
But that would be too business-like. In public life, everything lias
to be done in a political way, which means everything lias to bo done
with a maximum of talk and a minimum of action. - . -

The Doso
rinrt nf the. theories Of normal sleep
Is that it is brought ubout by the nc-
umulation of acid waste oroducts In
the blood to a
concentration sul-
flcient to induce
fatigue In the
lira In colls, which
it'HultH finally in
Hufftclent depres-
Hion of their activ
ity to suppress
consciouHness. The
constant activity
of muscles during
the waking hours
even tho the in
dividual sit in a
ehulr op lie abed all the time us well
as the,oonstnnt activity of the heart
muuclo-and various glands of the body
cause K Kradual accumulation of acid
waste products, particularly lactic
iiHid nomnoundH. Mince their oxida
tion and removnl oiJ destruction 'can
not keep pace with their production.
Tho accumulation of lactic acid com
pounds In the muscles is known to be
the direct cause of fatigue. If lactic
acid or Ur sodium salt' be injected
into the bUood It will bring on a con
dition of fatigue and finally a state
of unconsciousness. The brain cells
in activity utso produce acid wastes,
thouRh In far less quantity than the
muHclcs do. Muscular activity, .either
work or play, Is more effective as n
sleep producer than more brain or
"nervous" activity. The normal child
who plays actively needs relatively
more sleep than the rreak or abnor
mal child who does not play hard.
The laborer nnd the athlyte need rela
tively more sleep than tho person
who lives by his wits or prefers sports
to Kames.
Another theory is that sleep is due
to dltnlnlKhed blood flow to the brain
colls. I'.y means of a Klass plate in
the skull psyioloKlsts have observed
that tho brain becomes paler during
sleep; It is well known that the pulse
rate slows and tho blood pressure
falls and the size of the limbs in.
creases from tho, greater mount ; of
blood distributed to the extremettes.
Circulation -In the brain is not auto
matically controlled or regulated by
vnso-niotor "nerve control .(contraction
or dilation of tho arterioles.) as it is
in tho body-generally. The brain cir.
culatlon Is indirectly regulated by the
circulation in other parts of the body, j
Thus' when tho blood vessels in other
parts of the body relax or dilate so
that they hold more blood, the ves-1
sels within the skull receive less blood,
because the blood is shunted else
where. Thus it in hard to woo sleep
when your feet are cold; a stiff dose
of alcohol, which 'flushes the surface,
conduces to drowsiness, though po
litely cftlled "stimulant."
Of course wo do not know cer
tainly what the state of blood supply
to the Internal organs other than the
brain may bo during sleep, but we j
believe they share in the flush which j
Is present in the vessels of the sur-1
face and the extremities. There Is no'
doubt that it is normal nnd natural

lunch helps a great many people to
sleep better, perhaps the prejudice
against going to bed "on a full atom-

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.
UotdriHliology.
Are you recommending to your
readers who are nervous the keeping
of gold flfih7 What do you think of
the advic recently given by an emi
nent specialist of Syracuse, N. Y., to
the effect that people subject to ner
vous disorders should keep -a gold
fish aquarium? The specialist de
clared that there Is a calming or seda.
tlvo influence In watching tho gentle,
lazy, constant-, movements of tho fiah.
N. H.
Answer I can readily imagine how
soothing It might be for some people
to sit and watch the goldfish, people
who would bo driven wild by the con
stant movements of. a small flock' of
children around the place. That's the
great advantage of goldfish overyother
household pets they don't dnmage
the Oriental rugs or well, you know
how it Is.
Study for Prnplleal Nurse.
Would you recommend a widow
who has dond some practical nursing
for doctors in her vicinity to take a
course of study with one of the cor
respondence schools of nursing?
H. O. . .
Answer If she can have tho help
and support of the doctors she may
get something worth while from such
study. For practical nurses and
home nursing a new book by Emma
Louise IMohs, a nurse, hus just been
published by W. B. Saunders com
pnny, Philadelphia, with the title of
"Home Nursing.''
' ' ! Cure for Drunkenness?
Kindly send me the cure for drunk
enness something-that can be given
secretly. The man I want it for Is
going insane. Mrs. M. K. . B.
Answer there is no such cure. If
tho man really wishes to be cured he
must-arrange for treatment in a hos
pital or other Institution where proper
nursing enn be had. Any good phy
sician can treat him successfully, for
instance with the method given ' to
the profession 15 years ago by Dr.
Alexander Lambert. The patent "must
remain under treatment two or throe
weeks. There is nothing secret or ex.
pensive about tho treatment,, just or
dinary medical treatment. 4

. 430 Men On Payroll.
During the summer 130 men were employed at tlie mill nnd fac
tory of the Tomlin Box company, two shifts being employed during
this period. At the present time 70 men are at work. The Olds Lum

woods and at work 'on their railroad. More than the average num
ber are employed at the present time. -
This is practically a clear gain since 1910 for' the lumber -business

THE GREATEST THIXG XX THE
WORLD
, by Laurel Grav
ITow to Siioceod Even in HlnrriiiRO.
As r have often said it isn't the
trouble with marriage. The trouble
lies with folks who nre married to
each other. The
mistakes made
in selectlon are
to blame. The
girl who marries
the first likely
fellow who can
give her a good
home never has
a good home,
even if there are
real Chinese rugs
In her parlor nnd
a white enumeled
range in her
kitchen. For to
possess a good home a GOOD home,
there must be easy content happy
hearts and a feeling of satisfaction
with tho world. Goodness knows,
marriage is adorned with common
places and not with glittering stars
nnd strings of gold and silver like we
adorn tho tree on Christmas Eve.
There are even dull evenings, tire
some breakfasts, nerve-trying dinners
and constant wear and tear of the
necessary Intimacies of married life
which would "try the patience of
Job." Where there is love nnd toler
ance these commonplaces are only
tiresome nnd easily borne. Hut
where there has never been any real
honest love, these common-places be
come real tragedies, nnd of course,
wreckage ensues. Hut after all, there
can be no set formula for Insuring
happiness in marriage. . Many who
nre married on impulse live con
tentedly and even happily for years
and years and the divorce court never
catches them in its cruel claws. Mar-
ringe Is -a game of give and take or
it may be one of give OH tnke. In
either cane, it can be made a success
if oven only ONE of the two most
concerned loves the. other. For to
love means to yield and to make sac
rifices and toG!VK. -And to give
chverfully. abundantly.
