CURE FOR MUSCULAR FATIGUE, est Method af Obtaining sound an. Refreshing Sleep. Real fatigue may he divided lsto the mental and muscular varieties. The tetter te decidedly the simpler of the two. Where one has so overworked physically that one cannot sleep, ths first thing to do is to learn to relax. In such a case the first thing to do is to take a warm bath. Into which a lit tie rock salt has been dropped to coun teract the weakening effect of hot wa ter. Then shut out every ray of light from your bedroom and lie flat ob your back. Do not close your eyes and think desperately of going to sleep. la stead, devote yourself entirely to the subject of keeping your eyes opes. If they close, open them; If necessary, evea prop them open with your fin gers; whatever you do, continue to stare wide-eyed teto the darkness, and most important of aU. think of that' one question only. Is about five min utes you wUI be so sleepy that so will power os earth could keep you awake. The oae cure for fatigue is rest, and after prolonged physical effort the paramount issue is to get to sleep Im mediately, and to aleep as long as pos sible. AS EXPLAINED BY THE EDITOR.

We have had our eye on the printer ever since he twisted s phrase which appeared te sn editorial of ours from 'full of Internal rotten ness and dead men's bones' Into in ternal rattlesnakes and dead wren's tones.' And as soon as our eye lit upon this gratuitous v insult above to the Hon. Hezekiah E. Kinney we armed ourselves with our repeating shotgun, sought out the guilty party and shot him down in cold blood, not withstanding the fact that the bow deceased was the only support of s widowed mother and possessed a large and flourishing family.
