HOWTO INDUCE SLEEP AVOID ALL OPIATES AND OTHER FORMS OF “DOPE.* Light Mesl Followed by Moderate Exercise, Well Aired Room and Warm Feet Usually Will Bring Peaceful Slumber. There ore sound hygienic methods by which sleep may be Induced, eurslona Into the realms of patent medicines, opiates, end aU sorts of slumber elixirs which ere summed up as “dope,” should be avoided. But the moral of this lesson has been pointed over and over, yet little has been said about natural methods of wooing alaep. Dnder this head does not come the various mental contriv ance! such as “counting sheep'* or re citing the multiplication table. Oxygen Is aa necessary to tbe body cells during the hours of eleep as at any otbar Jims. Perhaps In the cess of children It Is even *•»-» r—reary. For them sleep mu..... :of doabolltm, growth and repair. Tbe old prejudice against open windows ■till exists, In spite of tbe campaigns of education In tbe newspapers and 'In the schools. Duet In tbe rooms, ‘an Imaginary draft, tbe fear of colds, and many other stupid reasons are advanced In escuae of this pernicious prejudice. The organs of the body also should be considered, and no ascasalva work aboftld be given the heart or digestive organa before retiring to rest High pillows lead to an ‘ Increase In the heart's force at a time whon the heart should have the lightest work. PllloWs that are too low may cause headaches, and even sleeplessness, through an excess of blood being In tbe brain. Heavy late euppers are unwise, but a light maal, followed by sucb moderate exercise as a short walk. Is generally conducive to sOtlnd sleep. The light meal causes a withdrawal of blood from tbe head Into the etomaeb area and the body generally. Tbe body Is therefore warmed, end this Is Important Cold extremities, particularly cold feet, cause sensory stimulations, which produce sleepleeenese. often for hours. People who eulfer In this way should take means to'keep thelt l«et warm artificially by using sleep* Ing socks, or slipper bathe, or by the use of hot water bottles,' and by sleeping between blankets It la, of course, fatal to aound eleep to go to bed "with anything on tbe mtnd.” In these sensations! and pleasure-loving days we often retire to rest after receiving a tong series of vivid sensations which often sc- oount for hours of sleepless tossing. 8omet!mos this may be relieved by e gentle friction df tho head with e medium hard brush. OLD PURITAN BIBLE BOXES Curious Csrved Chests for the Safe- Keeping of Copies of the, Scripture*. Almost Invariably after some great wave of religious enthusiasm, we are confronted by strange fragments ot salvage relicts of tho emotional pee-, •ton end religious ardor of a departed hour, says the Queen. Such were the devotional carvings of the middle ages—the triptyches, the private tab ernacles, the beautiful little Ivory madonnas. Among such memorials are the vast old Puritan Bible boxes. Cumbrous, ancient erke, into which the revteed version of James I. was once commit ted for safe ward and keeping. The sound oakboarda with which they were made have restated the tooth of time. In the long Journeys of the men of the Puritan period, when the scrip tures were part of the dally accom paniment of life, tbe province of these old boxes may readily be seen. With in tbe home they were made to con tain those ponderous family Bibles In which, especially during tbe common wealth, the head of the house care fully Inscribed tbe birth, death or mar riage of bis children with other memo- rabllla of family Ufa. This circum stance In the absence of other authen tic records, end the laxity of parish registers, has sometimes proved an In valuable aid. How little wa could have spared, for Instance, that volume In which Mitten recorded the very hour and minute of hie children's birth. Ash wood was sometimes used In the manufacture of Bible boxes, hut oak was the most popular from Its superior powers of resistance, for we must remember they were at times in the posteeilon of ecclesiastical stal warts, the vigor of whose preaching was sometimes calculated amount of damage dons to the pnlpl furniture. Throughout tbe commonwealth, and by the general convention of 1IW. traveling ministers were gratuitously supplied with Bibles, a very expensive Item; and In struggling pastorates the book, with Its appropriate coffer, often formed the -sole effects of a new con venticle. It Is a curious fact that lltblee were sometimes subjected to raining, even In'those austere days. In 1675 one Dr. Wilde bequeathed $250 for the purpose ot providing Bibles to be raffled among the poorer brethren. <r ,n Cectly Picture In Lumber Room.
