How miiny pmplc aro ihunt, who, do what they will, find that sleep refuses to emtio to them, and that they are docirac I to a night of perpetual rolling u rid toss ing ? Yet, according to a well-known New Yotk physician, himself a sullen r from insiimtiia fur ninny years, sleep can easily be summoned by a moans within reaehufall. The doetor has tried his method on his patients and, simple as ii is, has never heard of its failing Those who find Iheuiselves eluded by sleep Mill do well to try it, and for their benefit it i- hero given. The method is essentially one of self asphyxiation; nevertheless, lure is no r,'as:in to liar, for there is no risk. Indeed, it is impossible to asphyx iate one's su'l'hy thU means. The first thing you have to i is to rue a I n: and deep aspirati in, as iiiujh air beitc: drawn into the lung as cm bj borne with comfort.

Repent this proiv-s two nr three times, an 1 the clianoes are ynu will lorget ull elsn until you wal.e up Irom your sleep the. next morning. Tlio explanation uf this is simple auuutih. Sleep is due to hyporaeniiii of the brain, Dining sleep (hire is a flow uf outritioii to the eerebauui; cmwepiontly ari increase of blood to supply its delieieneies. The semi-asphyxiation brought about by holding the breath keeps a o,iantitv of blood iu the head, with a consequent in creised cerebral circulation. That is the case can easily be proved bv the increased throbbing and pulsating of the arteries of the. head. Another point niso to which the doetor eai.s attention is the habit uf sleeping with the bead to hinh If the head be kept low uioro refieshine. sleep is obtained. Ho raises the fool ol the bed, so that it forms an incliued plane, but recommends that this be d me gradually as a sudden chuoge is likely to have an effect the reverse uf that desired.

Touching tho Ivory buttons, Miss Sweet had touched the heart of her employer nt tho wuno time, and for tho lost hIx months m'utlera lmd been eomltiK dolly to it crisis between then). Miss Sweet t hought she loved tho proprietor. Indeed sho w;is pretty sure tli,-.t she did, mid as foup i'cter Jlunlup, ho was very certain that his heart was only In one upot, and that spot wtis under tlw neat shirt waist worn by Miss Sweet. Most yoiinii women under the ci renin Rtaneos would havo felt very much milled nt tho thoiiKht of lieing loved and rejected for reasons which they eould not help, hut Miss Sweet was not liko other girls. She icwed thtt fact ttt her poverty with equa nimity and was undisturbed by the knowl edge that it was only her poor social posi tion that kept tho banker from proposing to her. Not that she was unaware of tho state of affairs In fact, they had talked It over. "You Rep, my dear" fur PpfeT Dunlap called Miss Sweet "my dear" "It Is this way: My sisters aro very proud. Klsn Is tho wife of mi admiral, Clara married a millionaire, my only brother Is a yachts man and cup holder, and I must uphold the family namo. Now, my dear, for the twentieth timo I repeat to you that I lovo you very dearly, and If I could I would ask you to be my wife, but but you boo just how It Is." "To be suro," snld Miss Sweet, with a ready nhow of that sympathy for which tho banker loved her ainuiiK other quali ties, "I understand all uhout it. Mr. Dunlap, the rich banker of Chtcngo, of tho proudest family In tho west, cannot create n social sensation and shock family traditions by marrying a poor typewriter, who was so point less when she camo to him that sho hud to ltvo In n working girls' homo." "Yes, yes, osnetly; that's tho way It Is, though you put It rather harshly." "Otherwise you lovo me?" 'Hotter than my life." "I rco. So my ltfo Is to bo spoiled and what Is left of yours?" Hero Miss Sweet laughed so merrily that Peter Dunlap looked confused and shortly after ho put up his ledgers for tho ufternouu and went out. It was nearly three days before tho sub ject was alluded to again, for it was an old matter with Peter Dunlap and his typewriter, and one which, though they discussed It often, did not eomo up every day. This was nioro Miss Sweet's fault than Mr. Dun lap's, for the banker would havo talked it over with tho young lady and would gladly havo come, to somo ar rangement by which ho could marry her without shocking his family. "You see, they would take it so dreadfully hard," he paid to himself many times, "if I should marry beneath them." "What Is good family, Mr. Dunlap?" repeated Miss Sweet twice In one day. "I think I havo anked you that onco before." "Why, ono that 1b er why, a good family is a good family, don't you know?'' "Yes, exactly," said Miss Pwert, "hut I was wondering if we agreed on tho sub ject Now, my family is well, I should certainly havo called it good, though they nil tiled and left mo poor." Peter Dunlap turned his head from tho window where howasstanding und looked at his typewriter. " I'vo often asked you to toll me," said he. "I'll tell yon ninro about It tomorrow," said sho. "Now I am going home." A minute later ho naw her whizzing under hisotfioo window on her bicycle. "Strange she would never tell ino any thing about her folks, he mused. Tho next afternoon when the other lerks had gone ho asked her again. "Oh, 1 don't know," said sho. "I was thinking nliout a relative of mlno who was a banker's daughter, and another one who was a daughter of IjuIt t'adogau of Knirland. and several others who were re- luted to lords and dukes and earls and plenty of rich vcuplc. in this country." What do you inennr tlcummicti renr Dunlap, turning around In his chair and facing her. I FUpposo you never heard i( a branch of your family named .Sweet, did you?" n.-ked Miss Sweet prettily. "Sweet! It seems to mo that I nave. Thero was a second cousin of my mother who went away and married n sehool teaeher, n college professor or something like that. He died and left her, nud there was a llttlo girl, I believe." Yes," said Miss tiweet, "thero was a little girl " "It isn t possible It Isn t 'Yes, it is." 'Why haven't you told mo beforo?" 'Oh. I enjoyed hearing you talk nliout family, and 1 havo boeu having a little fun of my own." A few weeks later Mr. Dunlap's sister, th admiral' wife, received a letter from verv distant llttlecousln In the far west.

When the heart is full of sympathy some of it is bound to oveiflow. It may not manifest itelf in words, to be sure, but it will find Hume ripiully effective way of cheering or consoling, Nome years ago a widow who was spending the summer in a liille town iu New Hamp shire, received Word of the ihath of her only son, a yoiiui; man of great promise, who at ihe lime was traveling in Ivirope. The bereaved mother shut herself into her room with her sorrow, and the family with whom she had been boarding for several Weeks collected on the piuzzi.and talked over the shocking news. "What can we do for her, poor soul?" said the head of the house, casting a pitying glance toward the closed room within which a heatt was breaking. "I don't see that we can do anything," replied his wife. "I'm sure I don't know what to say to her. And besides, I don't believe she is tho sort of a per son that likes to hear expressions of sympathy." "I'm almost sure sho would like to feel that stmic ono was near who was sorry for her," said Kthel, a girl of six teen. "And unless you think I'd belter not I'm going into hor room." She was very pale as she entered the house and knocked at the closed door, but when she received no answer, she boldly pushed it ajar and entered. The mother was lying upon the bed, her face stern and set, and her hands clenched. She took no notice of Kthel, even when the girl knelt beside her and began to stroke her tense fingers wiili a gentle, soothing touch. Alter a lime the rigid muscles relaxed slightly, and the woman turned her head. She saw a young face white and drawn with pity, and two louder eyes looking upou her through sympathetic tears. There was a moment's bush, aud a great sob broke through the stillness ol the room. "((, child!" she said, and then with a quick motion she laid her head ou Ethel's shoulder, and shed ihusc tears which bring relief to hearts which have reached the limit of endurance. Not a word had the young girl spoken, ludeed, she was uut wise enough to com fort Borrow by means of speech. But as those who folluwed the footsteps of theMan of Nazireth found healing in the mere touch of his garments, so her loving pres ence and sympathetic touch had beeu as a balm of consolation to a bruised and broken spirit.

It was a mean man who excused him self from atteudiug his nntlier iu-law's funeral on the plea of business, saying "that business came before pleasure every time."
