ID you know that a child vfll sleep better and longer plHcrd on lta right aide? As a rule, one sleeps less when lying on tbe left aide, because of the pressure on tbe heart. Digestion is aided by lying on the right side, for the stonmrh empties naturally from the right side Into other organs. Aa shoes "draw" the feet of older persons while lying down, it la reasonable to auppnse that a child will be more comfortable with hoes removed during a nap. El HE arrangement of tbe sick c I room is Important, People J seldom realize the wonderful effect which a patient's envi ronment has on his conditions. Bright ness and sunshine must hare a decid ed effect upon the nervous system dur ing recovery from serious illness, al though ' in its acute stages much sliadow may bavs been necesnary. The t-nt outlook for a sick room is a soutb "rrlr one. Much can be done at tunes by altering tbe bed in order timt the light may not rause glare In jrs iiy strained because of wesk e-!l health.

"If by any chance you have made thorn sore run hot water on them, and If they bleed apply a littlo peroxide of bydrogen. "Your nails are In such bad condi tion that the process of shaping them at the sldea may take a little time and patience. 8ometlmes In such a case It is well to let them grow out once quite long. In order to get them back In their natural proportions at tbe sides, it you havs been narrowing them too much. "How often should you manicure? Once a week Is enough if you give them a little dally attention, with oil and emery board and polish. By all mean don't keep digging at them, and don't get laiv and say you baven'i time to do them. Five minutes every day will work wonder. If tney get bad again come to me; in fact, bad cases of nails should always be taken to a professional manicure to get them started right Those wblte spots? I know you are waiting Impatiently to hear about them. Prevent them, you cant re move them. It is generally aald that they come from bruises on the surface of the nail, especially at the bass where the growing nail Is very soft or further down on the finger where the root of the sail grows in a groove In the skin.

Some grow ' tired of doing nothing and some of having a good time, but most of us are tired of the everlasting grind. Not always but now and then. The feeling comes when one catches a glimpse Into the future and can Ond no hope of a change for the better; when one sees old age in the distance and nothing but loneliness as a re ward for one's life endeavors. . If one could only loaf a w hile. If tbe brain and tbe tired muscles could have a rest If the soul's longinga could only be satisfied sometimes. If one could have a bit more leisure. some change of scene, even a change of occupation, without tbe risk of los ing the little one has. A sweet woman once said to me: "I've had many sorrows In my life, but I never think of them now. I'm re membering my blessings." li is a good rule to follow. But there are times when one simply cannot re member blessings of the paat In tbe pessimism of the present Even bless ings take on an Indigo tint when the future seems to be marked out in the same old groove. But tbe next time I'm tired ot mv own personal grind, I'm going to think of Mrs. Anna Nagy. Mrs. Nsgy has seven children of step-ladder ages. They are all young and must be cared for. Mrs. Nagy Is thirty-four years old. Her husband earns a laborer's wage. The live in a small place near a big city, and have been married sixteen years. in ail mat sixteen years Anna Nir has never bad a rest ' Most of ths tims she has held a baby In her arms, and other babies have been tugging at her stuns. She has kept bouse for her family, doing every bit of the manual labor herself. Sbe haa ted a hungry husband and seven hungry children and, when sbe wasn't too tired to eat, she fed herself. Anna Nagy never sat down to rest If she sat down at sll. It was to sow or to hold a baby, and sbe never sat long at tbat, for every minute some need made ber Jump up to attend to It Nor was there time to sleep enough. Seven small children have a way ot keeping tbeir mother awake sights. And of course, the man of the bouse must have bis rest! The other evening Anna Kagy fed ber seven children, undressed them and tucked tbem Into tbeir bed a eh washed tbe dishes and cleaned up tbe kitc&en, Bhs looked at a pile of mend Ing to be done. And then she put on her coat and tied a shawl over her TENACIOUS HABITS ' BY MRS. KINGSLEY. . , NCE there waa a professor at a well known college, who used to exhort undergraduates to - periodical disuse ot tobacco; not because he thought tobacco a bad thing, but ' because he pronounced it weakness to make anything whatever indispensable 'to one's comfort Probably his principle waa sound, though It requires a force ot resolution rather higher than we are used to ex pect ot human nature. But you will remark that it is a principle for under graduates; that Is, for young people. We are more adaptable at twenty than at thirty, and by forty we are nearly vLitvu.m uur weys. It Is usual to speak of this as a rather contemptible, rather ridiculous icuuencr in iiuman niktiira wA ..11. of people becoming fossilized, turning Into mere oysters or barnacles.

Once you have tunio 10 lony years you know how easy It Is to be ridiculous. But times of trouble often shed a new light on our possibilities.

Cut the plaster Into triangles and strips to fit the wrinkles and paste on In the night Remove In tbe morning and massage gently for five or ten minutes with a good cold cream. Use a strong plaster and one that will stick well. Tbe bUck variety Is best for this purpose. RINKLES between the eyes are often caused by poor eyeslgbt.
