SURE CURE FOR INSOMNIA
Eat Pint of Peanuts and Drink Three
Glasses of Milk Before
Retiring.
Recently a friend who had heard
that I sometimes suffer from insom
nia told me of a sure cure. “Eat a
pint of peanuts and drink two or
three glasses of milk before going to
bed,” said he, “and I'll warrant you’ll
be asleep within half an hour.” I did
as he suggested, and now for the bene
fit of others who may be afflicted with
insomnia I feel it my duty to report
what happened, so far as I am able to
.•ecall the details.
First, let me say my friend was
right. I did go to sleep very soon after
my retirement. Then a friend with
his head under his arm came along and
asked me if I wanted to buy his feet,
I was negotiating with him when the
dragon on which I was riding slipped
out of his skin and left me floating in
midair. While I was considering how
I should get down, a bull With two
heads peered over the edge of the wall
and said he wrnuld haul me up if 1
would first climb up and rig a windlass
for him. So as I was sliding down the
mountainside the brakeman came in,
and I asked him when the train would
reach my station.
“We passed your station over 40C
years ago,” he sai'd, calmly, folding the
train up and slipping it into his vesl
pocket. _
At this juncture the clown bounded
into the ring and pulled the centerpole
out of the ground, lifting the tent and
all the people in It up, up, w hile I stood
on the earth below watching myself
go but of sight among the clouds above.
Then I awoke, and found I had been
asleep almost ten minutes—TT T*
