The Herald, 1910-02-18, Page 2POSITION iN SLEEPING,
Variety of Opinions Among Eminent
French Doctors,
number of French medical men
ha e. given their opinion to the Matin
asf Paris ,on what they consider the
healthiest position for sleep.
Dr. Delorme, army medical inspector,
declares .that the natural position is to
lie'flat on one's back. Professor Debone
and Dr. Daveniere, of the School of
Hygiene, are of the same opinion, And
pointout that lying on either side
causes pressure of the arm, wbioh may
eventually bring about paralysis.
Dr, Landeuzey, of the medical faculty,
says that tete., best position is the most
comfortable position, and this is aequir-
•ed by habit. It would be well, how-
ever, to accustom oneself to sleep on
the right side. Dr. Letulle, of the Med-
ical Academy, maintains emphatically
that' the sleeper should always lie on
the right side and thus avoid indigestion
ar}d heart troubles.
In startling contradiction comes a
statement from a heart specialist, Dr.
Huchard: "I always sleep on my left
side, and I think it is quite immaterial
whether you lie on your left or right
side. The idea, however, that those .who
cannotlie on the left side suffer from
heart affection is quite erroneous,"

HAPPY DAYS
FOR BA - Y.
The healthy child is always a
happy child. A11 its little trou-
bles vanish when its food digests
properly and it is free from child-
ish ailments. Most of these ail-
ments come from stomach or
bowel troubles, colds, feverishness,
teething and worms. Baby's Own
Tablets promptly cure all these
troubles and keep little ones well.
Mrs, W. G. Martin, Ravenscliffe,
Que., says, "I have used Baby's
Own Tablets in my home for the
past four years, and since using
them my little ones have enjoyed
the best of health. I can recom-
mend them to every mother as a
sure cure for the little troubles
of childhood." Sold by medicine

A Suggestion.
' When Miss Lucy E. Anthony was
'visiting her little nieces last summer
she was besought to make a kite. As
she had made some in her youth
wh' had b n fairly success*, she
pre ,iserl tom: 'uati,-Leet; nwhile-^
ing to have th chilyden disappointed,
she 'expressed doubts as to whether
it would fly very well. While they
were working on the kite, a small
boy came by selling fly paper. Miss
Anthony said that they did not wish
any. One little niece said: `But,
Aunt Lucy, if you think the kite may
not fly, why don't you buy some fly
paper, and then it surely will?"

Do You Value Health
Regulate and. Cleanse Your
System.,
Spring elearli g., does -not answer the
body. . The prime element in the main-
tenance
aintenance or in the.recovery of health is
activity of liver, kidneys and skin. Not
occasionally but only by weekly' Winn-'
lation of these functions can poisons,
waste matter 'and acciumulations within
the body be drawn out so 'that the blood
and inward parts be purified and kept
wholesome. Dr: Hamilton's Pills are
the mildest laxative medicine known;
they purify the blood, fortify the activ-
ity of liver and kidneys, increase the
eliminating power of the skin and. create
a general feeling of well being—the out-
coine of wholesome conditions within.
Dr. Hamilton's Pills are a general tonic
to the' digestive system; they restore
functional effectiveness to all the organs
of secretion and ocntribute in this way
enormously to the stability of health.'
For general family use in all cases of
biliousness, bad. blood, indigestion and
disorders of the stomach, Dr. Hamil-
ton's

tons Pills have no equal. Sold in yellow

A Church in a Rock.
In the quaint old German town of Ob-
erstein an ancient church stands, built in
the great 'rock rising from the river.
The front of the building is of !tone,
but the church itself is hollowed out of
the rock and penetrates far into its
heart. Tradition says that in the four-
SAVED iN HIS 010 AGE
teeuth century the Count of Oberstein,
one of the, old robber barons, fell deeply
in love with a beautiful young lady, the
daughter of a neighboring knight.
His brother also sought the fair maid-
en's hand and the two suitors had a vio-
lent quarrel. The upshot was that the
count flung his hapless brother from the
top of his castle wall, high up the preci-
pitous cliff. Repenting of his awful deed,
the count vowed that he would build a
church where his brother's body first
touched the ground. He did so, exsevat-
ing the church in the rock; and tradi-
tion goes on to say a miraculous spring
of clear water .sprang from the crag as
a token that heaven was appeased. This
curious church is now the only Protest-
ant place of worship in the town.—

Oldest Bank Notes.
•
At the Bank of England privileged
'visitors are sometimes shown the oldest
known bank note, for £555, with the
date "19th Xber, 1699." The memoran-
da written across the note show that
payment was made by three instalments.
The bank notes of that period were
printed from engraved plates, blank
spaces being left for the date, the signa-
ture, the number and the amgunt. The
watermark can be clearly seen, and in
texture and general appearance the
notes were very similar to those of to-
day.—London Globe.

Household Hints.
For obstinate nosebleed, put an ice
pack or a cloth wrung out in ice water
at the back of the neck.
A cloth skirt should never be hung
up inside out, as this tends to crease
it more than anything else.
Boiled rice or. baked potato will go
excellently with sweetbreads, and this
dish is good for the sick.
The cheer and lighter the pan the
whiter aria lighter your bread when
you bake in a gas range.
Chiffon velvet is a most excellent
thing for brushing a felt hat, whether
a man's or a woman's.
To insure that potted plants will
thrive always have a little water in
the saucer under the flower pot.
When milk boils over on the stove,
sprinkle on some salt at once. This
will counteract the disagreeable odor.
.Bronzes should be cleaned by rub-
bing with sweet oil. Rub dry with a
soft cloth and polish with chamois.
Gruel, when properly prepared,
should be a little thicker than cream,
and should be- absolutely free from
lumps.
After putting luttered paper in the
cake pans, sprinkle in just a little
flour. This will keep the cakes from
sticking,
A little alcohol rubbed in
water is equally good.

KEEP BABY'S SKIN CLEAR.
Few parents realize, how nanny estim-
able lives' have been embittered and so-
cial and business success prevented by
serious skin a feetions which so often
iesult from the neglect of minor erup-
tions in infancy and childhood. With
but a little care and the use of proper
emollients, baby's skin and hair may be
preserved, purified and beautified, minor
eruptions prevented from becoming
chronic and torturing, disfiguring rashes,
itchings, irritations and chafings dis-
pelled. To this end nothing is so pure, so
sweet, so speedily effective as the use of

Reform by Suicide.
The course of true reform never runs
smooth—not even in China.
Not long ago Yunk Lin, a Chinese
patriot, despondent over the rapidity
wiith which everything was going to'
the Chinese terriers, wrote a long letter
to the Emperor -regent complaining about
things in general. To add emphasis to
his remarks. he committed suicide. The
Government, in recognition of his patri-
otic devotion, issued an edict in his
honor,. but whether it has taken any
steps toward the reforms he suggested
the despatch does not state.
The letter of protest is said to be one
of the most ,hmarkable pieces •of muck-
raking on record.
"Rice," said the ardent reformer in
one' choice passage,' "has become as dear
as pearls, and firewood as costly as cas-
sia buds."
So it seems that even in far -away
China the ultimate consumer has his
grievances. If we only had. in America
men who would put as much devotion in-
to living as poor Yung Lin did into dy
inq for his, we should indeed ,be fortus

How to Get a Coonskin Coat.
'Coonskin overcoats are within the

barrel wind some parsnips, according to
J. L. Ferguson, a trapper, who lives in
the vicinity of Cass Lake.
"11 you'll go to the timbered district,"
he said, sink a coal oil barrel two-thirds
of its length in the ground, suspend a
.parsnip over it about a foot 'from the'
top and leave it over night, you should
catch at least one coon, and possibly
three The head of the barrel must be
removed, and there must still be traces
of coal oil on the inside, so the staves
will be slick. The coon will be attracted
by the smell of the parsnip (there le
nothing a coon likes better); he will
climb the outside of the barrel and in
trying to stand ou the rim and reach
the suspended parsnip wil fall in. There
is no possibility of his climbing out.—St.
