A writer in a medical column gives this advice: "A little more than ;{() years ago I suffered from inabil ity to sleep. I heard of Dr. Ilrown Sequard of Paris at the Revere house, Itoston, who had ..come over to see Charles Sumner. "After diagnosing my case, includ ing asking me to stand on one foot and close my eyes, and then reverse It on the other foot, he said: "I shall not give you medicine. As you retire at night take a two quart hot water bag and fill it two-thirds full of cold water. Then sink the back of your head and neck Into It on the pillow. It will relieve the .pulsations going to the brain so much. Then throw it aside, and you will be' likely to sleep." ' "It proved very effectual, and I know It has relieved many. I asked him what I should pay him, and he said $25, which I paid cheerfully. "Probably this may benefit a great many people if made known."

LINDSAY, Secretary EVELYN'S HOLIDAY By IZOLA FORRESTER. "Where are you going over LulW day, Miss Hpunolt?" The little Huffy -hatred stenographer near the window whs always asking impromptu questions more or less em burraKstng. Kvelyu colored ever ho slightly ?? yhe bent to sign the lust batch of lot to is, "I lutrdly think I ahull get away. 1 tun taking homo some uow estimates to go over." "You' it- an awful gooM to work so hard. Vou don't get any thanks for It, 1 can tell you that right now. 1 heard Mr. Dorianee tell Jlniiultl -that you were working yourself to death and you'd die In harness In the forties. You bet I won't." After the others had left the office, Kvelyu sut at her desk iin usual, going over the last duties of the day when the ollloe was quiet. And ?oniehow the words of the little stenographer kept recurring to her. Was she wrong to let life slip by without any real fun? She was twenty-seven, private secre tary to Gates Waring, the civil engi neer. He was out of town a great deal of the time, and left the detail of the ofllce to her absolutely. Kve lyn liked to think she was essential to him. Yet his words were always few and Impersonal. He was on his way north now, she knew. A wire that morning stated he would leave Washington Monday morn ing. The ofllce would be closed Labor day. She had plenty of opportunity to go away for the day. And, before *ho knew it, nhe had begun to plan. The next morning early she found herself on a Jammed platform In Jer sey. waiting for the excursion cars to ho opened up. She had planned a ride of an hour, then a wonderful trip on a lake, and hours to spare on the veranda of a big hotel. She had brought1 some magazines to read on the train. It must have been three-quarters of an hour before there came the long, shrill whistle again and again from the engine and the grinding of the brakes. "It Isn't our train," somebody near said after the brakeman had passed through. "The Washington express hit a freight." Evelyn heard and rose. Of cotirse, it could not be his train, and still she found herself moving along with the crowd in the aisles down the car length, out on the platform, down be Siide the track. The engine of the express seemed to have tried to climb up the caboose of the freight. "No one was hurt?" she asked the man next her. "Guess the engineer's billed. They J say he's jammed down under some i _plpes. They're? afraid ^he-e*HH*ents j got him. There's a fellow from the , express gone up after him." _ _ _ j Gone up after him? She "looked again at the upreared mass. She could see n man's figure now moving down in the twisted Jammed mass, the man who was endangering his own -life from live wires on the big electric engine. Tense and rigid, she waited with the others until the man. came slowly, surely, struggling out" with a limp burden in his arms. "He's not dead yet," seh heard him say, and at the sound of his voice she ran forward, ran like a child up to where lie stood with both arms held out. "Oh, Mr. Waring, can I help?" His face and clothes were begrimed and hlf ' hands burned. But he turned to look at her with his curious smile of amused contentment with life in general. "Do you know where there's fresh water?" "There's a brook right +In the field here," called out a boy from the neighborhood. "I'll show you." She followed Waring to It, helped htm as he knelt down to bathe hit* face, and tried to bandage his hands with strips of torn-up handkerchief*. And while they stayed there, the whistle of the excursion train sounded. "I haven't anything on It." Evelyn said. "Never mind If It does go with out me. I was just going up to the lake for the day. But I'll stay with you now. I think you need me." "I think I always need you," War ing answered Qttickiy: ? "ft? WfH? be hours before they clear away that wreckage. Let's picnic by ourselves over here." J Evelyn never forgot that day. They found a walk up through the fields that led to a ridge of woodland. Din ner was en ten at a little fhrmhouse. | "This Is the happiest holiday I've ever had. I'd like to buy this farm and keep it." "What for?" Evelyn leaned forjvard. her hair rumpled and wavy around her flushed, happy face. And he answered deliberately, "For our honeymoon." She did not speak. "Would you llke^ It, Evelyn? Don't yoil think we deserve a real holiday, dear?" "Don't you think that after you get back to town you'll be sorry you said that?" She asked It slowly, trying to j keep frer head and be sensible for his* j sake. , "Dear, IVe been ^intending to say it j for ever so long, Mit I never seemed to find the time, and you were always hu*y.
