HERE IS CURE FOR INSOMNIA Wrap a Wat Bandage Around tha Lag to Draw Blood From the Head, , 8aya a Phyalelan. A curious cure for sleeplessness has recently been reported. A piece of calieo, about 18 inches wide and 2% yards long is rolled up like a bandage, and a thin! of it wrung out of cold water. The leg is then bnndnged with this, the wet parts being carefully covered by several layers of the dry part, as well as by a laver of gutta percha tissue, and a stocking drawn on over the whole. This causes dilation of the vessels of the leg, thuR diminishing the blood in the head and producing sleep. It has been found by Wintcrnitz that, the temperature in the oar passage begins to fall a quarter of an hour after the application of the bandage, the decrease amounting to 0.4 degrees C.,. and the normal not being again reached for from ll/j to two hours afterwards. The writer has employed this means of producing sleep for a couple of years and finds it especially useful in cases where there is congestion of the brain. Sometimes he has found it necessary to reapply the bandage every three or four hours, as it dried.? Family Doctor. AT SCHOOL "Is there any reason, Willie, why you cannot pronounce 'core' properly?

A few years ago, if a merchant was tc Jo such a thing he would be considered a fit subject for an asylum, but conditions have changer}, yet in the face of the enormous sum spent in advertising the fact of McElhaney & Co. giving away a $400 Piano is a stupendous undertaking and it clearly demonstrates their desire to be "always up to and a little ahead" of the spirit of the times. Every purchaser of $1.00 worth of goods from any df-purtment of their store will receive a coupon good for 100 votes on the Piano. The person presenting the largest number ot votes to them on August 1 vvill receive the piano absolutely free. No favors will be shown and every person will be given an equal chance. The reputation ?n joyed by McElhaney & Co. for "square dealing" insures this fact.
