"I'll stop him in two minutes," Jack replied confidently. And he wrote and passed to the orator the following note : "My Pear Colonel As soon as you finish your magnificent argument I would like you to join me at the ho tel in a bumper of rare old Bourbon." The lawyer halted in the midst of an impassioned period, put on his glasses, and read the note that had been handed him, then he removed his glasses again and, taking up his hat and bag, he said: "And now. may it please the court and gentlemen of the jury, I leave the case with you."

PCOB WAY TO 1 WOO SLEEP

Man Who Experimented Proneur.ee! Insomnia "Cure" to Be at Least of Doubtful Value. A new cure for insomnia, we read, is to "list the first names of all your friends and acquaintances, taking each letter of the alphabet in order." Of course this is only a variant of the old device of counting imaginary sheep jumping over a wall. Personally we never found that to work at all. Vt'e counted netween 11.000 and 12,000 of these alleged soporific sheep one night, and then the alarm clock went, off and It was time to get up, which we did with a groan, a headache and a pair of astigmatic eyes. Making an alphabetical catalogue of your friends first names is an even more stimulating and nerve-exciting process. We would be willing to wager that no normal persons could get further than the X's before being interrupted by the first call for breakfast. It is doubtful, at least, if the night contains enough time to go through with the whole list from Alfred to Zorilla. We should say that this might be the surest way to banish sleep altogether. The best way to woo slumber, we have been told, is to go into the silence, relax all muscles and nerves, and then in a mental way. pull all the edges of the mind into a dead mental center and fold them in. It is hard to say just how this is done, but it sounds plausible. Frequently, of course, there are some difficulties merely in going into a silence. Somewhere on the premises, perhaps in an adjacent apartment, there may be someone who has gone to sleep without going into the silence. This interferes materially, witlr the working of all anti-insomnia devices. If there is no neighboring obstacle of this sort it is a much easier matter. And yet, even after the silence is arranged, the mind is apt to go on providing its own disturbance. Arithmetical and alphabetical diversions only accentuate the tumult. The only thing to do is to regard the very center of the mind as a hypothetical hole, or vacuum, contract the mind until it is all pulled into this hole, and then pull the hole in nfter it. And there you are. Of course if there is a certain degree of reality in this imagined condition, one does not have to exercise the hypothesis, and that makes it so much easier. F. II. Young in Providence Journal. Lithuania and Its People. Lithuania is situated in the basin of the Niemen and Dvina rivers on the southeastern coast of the Baltic sea: The capital is Vilna. Its area is approximately S0.000 square miles, the population about 0,000.000, of whom 7.000,000 are Lithuanians 3,500,000 Lithuanians proper, 1,500,000 using Slavic dialects and 2,000,000 Letts. The country also contains a third of a million Poles. The rest of the population consists of Jews. White Russians, Germans and Mongols. It is said that there is no trace in the world's history of any other people having lived in these regions. Although situated between the Slavs and the Teutons, the Lithuanians are in no way related to them. They claim that their language is one of the oldest now spoken in the world. It is said strikingly to icsemble ancient Sanskrit. Many Tyrants. He was a high school pupil, and was Imbibing many bits of philosophy. At home he watched the women folk and the ways they devised for doing as they pleased and for getting every other person to do as they wished them to do. And from these he drew conclusions which he later voiced. "Times have changed since my history was written," he told his father one night. "Then the tyrants were the men who used to stamp around and kill and frighten people into submission. Today the tyrants have dropped those weapons and use much more subtle ones tears. I think a woman who cries in order to get her own way is a bigger tyrant than ever those old fellows of long ago were." Anyway, it set father to work thinking. Primroses of Picardy. Nature in her own way is looking after the solitary war graves -scattered throughout the shell-shattered Picardy countryside, according to j writer in the London Daily Chronicle. Those that lie In the thrice-foughi-over ground between Albertajid Combles are covered with early spring primroses. In Lierajnont the daffodils are blooming, and the brambles on the graves in Bernafay wood are green with new leaves. The lonely warriors are to be gathered together In the central cemeteries under the care of the imperial war graves commission. The French government, in compliment to the British soldier, has nnrchased the necessary land, and has presented it for all time to England. ry 4 ' Hotel Chateau Thierry.

Writer Criticizes Modem 'Teaching of History. Important Happenings Recorded Without the Events Leading Up to Them Being Set Forth Makes Heads Spin. Take English history as it is taght la au English school. We begin with Celtic Britain. Enter Caesar and a Roman host. From where? We never learn, H. G. Wells writes in the Saturday Evening Post. Who is this Caesar and why did lie come? Why did he go? Why did the Romans not come again for the better parL of. 3 century 2. Evidently something much more impurtant was going on elsewhere. A little way on in the story certain Angles, Jutes and Saxons rush In as inexplicably. Whence? Why? Later come the Danes. The history of England has the effect of something going on upon a doormat in a passage outside a room full of events, with several other doors. The door opens, the Norman kings rush out of the room, conquer the country hastily, say something about some novelty of which we have learned nothing hitherto, the Crusades, and exit to room again. From which presently King Richard returns dejected. He has been lighting the Saracens. Who are the Saracens? We never learn. What becomes of them? We are never told. So it goes on. The broad back of history is turned to England throughout. Its face and hands are hidden, and we make what we can of the wriggling of its heels. The American story is still more incomprehensible. An innocent continent is suddenly inundated by Spanish. Portuguese, French, Dutch and British, who proceed at once to pick up the thread of various contlicts initiated elsewhere. Someone called the pope is seen to be dividing the new continent among the European powers. Colonies are formed. What are colonies? These colonies, in what is apparently a strenuous attempt ffe simplify history, break off from their unknown countries of origin. A stream of immigration begins from west and east. The American mind establishes a sort of intellectual Monroe doctrine and declares that America has no past, only a future. From which sublime dream it is presently roused to find something of unknown origin called European imperialism wrecking the world. What is this Imperialism? How did it begin? The teaching of history in most other countries is after the same fashion. Everywhere the teachers present more or less similar histories of passages and doormats. Great events the Crusades, the Reformation, the Industrial revolution come in with a bang and go out with, a slam, leaving no clew, leaving our poor heads spinning. Is It any wonder if history falls back for a little human touch upon childish anecdotes about Alfred and the cakes, the peerless beauty of Mary Queen of Scots, and King Charles and his spaniels? 6,000 John Smiths. The claims and record office of the ministry of labor at Kew, England, which is now dealing with millions of forms in connection with unemployment pay, has electrically driven accounting and' tabulating machinery. Figures are transferred to special cards by holes punched In certain positions and the cards are sorted by machine into groups. These groups then pass through a machine which prints the details from each card on rolls of paper, at the same time accumulating the figures and producing a total at any given point. An alphabetical index, consisting of Iooseleaf registers of all insured workers, contains 10,000.000 names, of which thousands are identical. There are 6,000 John Smiths, 2,000 John Browns, 2,000 William Browns, 1,300 William Jones, 1,000 John Macdonalds and 1.000 William Davies. Eye Drill for Flyers. The royal air force of England has instituted an eye drill that has made rnaBy splendid pilots out of men who woii3iLtherwise have been useless. It was (Mscovered that a large percentage of men only .use one eye'at a time, and in the early days pilots were not tested for eye balance. Many men were then passed Into the air service who could never land correctly. When these deficiencies were discovered a school was formed and under an eye specialist twice a day airmen undergoing the cure were paraded for eye drill and taught how to use both their eyes at the same time. The result was that 05 per cent of the men who would have been bad pilots became good ones In a little while. Immigration Statistics.

Pepgen may be obtained at any leading drag store. Adv. The Adjutant's Warning. With the demobilization of the army some new stories are being demobilized bore. One is the story of the bright thought of an adjutant. The commanding officer of a force behind the lines had acquired op "won" (as they say in the army) a cow, and he was much envied by all the messes. The adjutant ban a cottage with a garden, in which he had some good strawberries. One day the C. O. without a word went into this garden and helped himself to the adjutant's strawberries. The adjutant couldnot, ?f course, rebuke his chief, out lie ijiit up this notice: t "Trespassers in this strawberry garden will have their cow shot." London Morning Post. Certsfn Difficultfes. "Here's a 1ewvr from your school sweetheart .asking. yo.u f - oiae back to the old home town and marry her," said the secretary. "Tell her," said Mr. ITenpeek, as he glanced at the picture of his iron-jawed wife and her numerous relatives, '"that much as I would like to accept her kind invitation, circumstances over which I have no control prevent my doing so, for the present, at least."
