I Sleep is a women's greatest aid 1 for the preservation of her health , and beauty. When she has had suf- ' ficient rest she feels fresh and re- 1 juvenated; when she suffers from 1 lack of it she loses her vitality, grows sallow of complexion, irrit- I able of temper, and is generally run down. Some women's nerves are more 3 easily excited than others, and for I these the average hours of the day are too long. They go to bed tired mentally and physically, and thus sleep will not come. They lie awake the whole night through, listening to the chiming of the clock, until the striking of each hour becomes a. torture. When they are thoroughly worn out sleep comes, perhaps at fitful intervals, or when dawn is beginning to break. Otherwise they may be oh- liged to rise without' having rested tho brain at all. This state may continue into the next night and the night after that, until their nerves are on the verge of a breakdown. The best remedy to provoke sleep, when it will not come natur- ally, is to take more physical exer- cise and do less brain work. Beauty sleep could be cultivated. The pa- tient should lie down and sleep for a few minutes every afternoon. Pvrhaprit will not come at first, and then the only thing to be done is to sit upright with the elbows resting upon the table and the resting upnn the tame uuu my hands supporting the chin. The muscles should be relaxed and the wind allowed to wander at will without any definite effert, and wit}: “IUIUuh an: “sun”..- VV.‘ V, perseverance and practice this will} be found to bring sleep. Many people think that afternoo sleep is injurious to the health and beauty, but in the case of insomnia it can only do good. Care, however, should be taken to check the mid- day nap from becoming a sound sleep, as this will arouse a ten- dency to drop off into slumber at any minute of the day, which event- ually tends to dull the brain faeul- ties, A warm bath will Mvm bring) sleep, especially if the sufferer from insomnia feels the cold. In that! event down slippers or sleeping socks should also be worn. The fol-i lowing exercise, too, may be prac-x tised just before getting into bed.; The hands should be pressed on) the neck so that the blood flows) from the brain. The trunk is bent[ at the waist and gently swayed from ( right to left and then round in a) circle. l I This practice should be continu- ied for a few minutes before getting into bed, and in many cases will ‘immediately be followed by a sound and retres1iryrysliy+.sr. A glass of hot. milk last thing at night, gentle massage of the tem- ples, or a hop pillow are all aids to induce slumber which have been found to produce good results. A String to the Job.

What Jesus would have all excuse makers understand he makes very plain in the next _ sentence, in which he makes stead- fastness and fdelity the test of ht- . ness for the kingdom of God. As they went on their way-At this point, we resume the narrative of our last lesson, though here too we must remember what was said in the paragraph on "ehronologi- cal sequence" in connection with that lesson. The passage which follows may or may not be related closely in time with what imme- diately precedes. A certain vipaze-ftethany, near the Mount of Olives (John 11. l, 18), In Mark H. 3 and Matt. 26. b' Wt' read of a feast prepared for Jesus in the house of Simon the leper, Martha serving and Mary anointing the Master's feet. It has berm con- jectured that perhaps Martha was Simon's daughter or even his wife. In either case Simon would not be present, since the law de- manded the separation of leper-s from other people. . Cumbered about much serving-- Martha evidently had gone to much trouble in ordcr to do due . honor to their distinguished guest. In centering her mind wholly upon the external service and hospitality she lost, in part at least. the deeper joy of fellowship with the Master which the occasion of his visit made possible and of which her more spiritually minded sister" eagerly took advantnge. .. , I “I suppose." replied the old 'teil," "it's because they had to '.do something to get their minds ott Ithe troubles they had at home."
