Real Beauty Sleep.
A woman meeds seven^ hours' -sleep for v the building up of her system. Then she needs two more hours for the recuperation of her body, and the extra" two "hours" will restore her complexion, make her eyes bright, take; the wjujkles out erf her face, and keep her form elastic. The -woman who wants to derive ihe- fullest benefit from hex beauty sleep will compose her mind before sinking off into slumber. She will think pleasant thoughts. Worrying thoughts make furrows in the brow and set lines round the mouth. A little light
in a bedroom is a good thing for some people, for it will act cheerfully upon the nerves and drive away nightmare. Do not allow yourself tc be awakened in ( the morning if you mean to get a beauty sleep, or, if, you must be roused, let itbe ever so gently. Do not wake up with a start, with an alarm clock, or in consequence of a bell ringing, for these harsh J sounds will jar the nerves and destroy some of the good the sleep has done yon. \ •
