How Some People Sleep; Think You Could Do It? The Japanese stretches him self on a rush mat on the floor and puts a hard square block of wood under his head. Chinese beds are very low, scarcely rising from the floor, but are often carved exquisitely of wood. The inhabitants of the tropics often curl themselves up like monkeys at the lower angle of a suspended hammock and sleep very soundly that way. The Russian likes no sleeping place so well as the top of the h;;r soapstone stove in his dwelling. Crawling out of his blisb-rn : bed in the morning, he delight s in taking a plunge in a cold stream, even if he has to break through the ice to do so. In Lapland the native crawl . head and all, into a bag made of reindeer skin and sleeps warm and comfortable within it. The East Indian, at the other end of the world, also has a sleeping bag. Its purpose is to keep out the mosquitoes rather' than to keep its occupant warm. Bullfight Ends in Death. Los Angeles, Dec.

One of the most pleasing signs of prosperity, and one which is caused by the short crops and high cost of living is the great number of acres of grain that has been sown. Never before in the history of Johnson county has so much oats, wheat, rye and barley. The prices that pi evaded here during the summer and fall for feed stuffs were almost prohib itive. The farmers have deter mined that next year, with weather conditions favorable there shall he no necessity ( sending to the west f r such things. Entertains Her Pupils.

In (ii .uiih, showed a marked Increase, j T>i.ln i.M-e's report of 2,199 cases was! incomplete; North Carolina reported j l, cares, wiille there were no le i ports from South Carolina, Alabuina or Georgia. Prevalence of small pox In Georgia s not questioned; little is said of it except when It becomes epidemic or ! semi epidemic in a particular locality; men a vaccination crusade is started, i nut often Loo late to protect many ol the victims. Hmali pox is one of the oldest of epidemic diseases. There are refer ences to it dai.ng hack I.OuO years in tore the Christian era. In Europe, in the middle ages, its death roll would run as high us 600,009 in a sin gle year. It was drought to America ■any in the seventeenth centuiy, and uas been more or less prevalent here ever since. Small pox is considered unquestlon ; ably a germ disease, hut the germ is one about which suleutilsts as yet know nothing. What they do know, ho we vi l, beyond ail question, is how lo prevent it. Nearly everyune ex posed io it who is not protected ny vaccination or wiio lias uot had the m. ..me at some {devious time, will cohUacl it. ii iniij be gotleu ny di it cl contact, such as snaking Hands with one wuo lias it, or mdtrecUy by sli cpiug in a bed wuicd Uas been OC cup.ed uy u small-pox patient. There n> lensou to believe even more remote contagion may take place. Every use ot it comes from some other (a.-e, either directly or indirectly. fell days, two weeks or even a longer Uuie may pass before the gympLoius develops. Then comes a severe chill loilowed by a rapidly dis -ng lever and severe aching puius in the back, jotuis or head. After a couple oi days of fever, rash appears usually iirst on the forehead, and the fever sir asides. Ihe rash, at first pmk or reddish splotches, smooth and lint, dev elopes In a tew hours Into in tie haid founded bumps under the akin. these spread over the entire body, developing blisters as they ow. The patient again dsvelopea a lever, and the blisters, Ullad first with a clear iluid, become tilled with cor runilon. The patient presents a hor rible picture. The shut is covered w itb a mass of pus, the ayes are clos ed by the swelling and the diseased flesh gives foitli a horrible odor. Af l**i about twelve days the eruption begins to heal, the blisters dry up and finally the skin is covered with line scales from the top of the eruption which arc believed to contain the con tagion of the dlseuse. The patient Is contagious until all the pustules have dried up and sealed ofT and the skin over them Is smooth Sometimes great pits are left In the skin which .1 gules the patient for life. The disease iu the United States, oi late years, has been of the milder said by some to be due to the e virulent strain of the infection. \T with; landing this there have been re it breaks at various points in Fin', I States with an exces . v he, u itallty.
