GALVANIZING AN OLD THEORY
Ilcnds to the North, Toes to the
South, Insures Sound and
Refreshing. Sleep.
Experiments are now being conducted
at Columbia university to prove tho
truth of the theory that people who slncp
with their heads pointing toward the
north magnetic pole and their feet toward
the south sleep more soundly than those
who sleep otherwise.
"Do you sleep well?"
"Are you in perfect health?"
If not, you had better box the compass
before retiring. Every man, woman and
child in this 'broad land ahou'st turn his
or her bed around until the head points
north and the foot south. Thon only
will his or her sleep be as deep and sound
as possible, all .other things being equal.
Then only will he or she arise with nerves
rested and with proper tone to tho en
tire body.
"Nonsense, rot," you say. Yet experi
ments at Columbia university seem to
bear out this theory, which is almost as
old as tho hills.
Dr. Walter J. Clarke of 224 West Seven-
ty-socond street, one of the best known
exponents of the use of electricity, not
only for the euro of diseases, but for
the soothing effect It-has on overworked
or tired nerves. Is a firm believer of this
theory.
"Tho truth of this theory, which Is a
very old one, has been demonstrated
thousands of times," says Dr. Clarke.
"But It Is only just recently that scien
tific proof has, been produced. Wo now
understand why It Is so. By electrical
stimulation ot the nerve fibers one can
either rest them or make them healthy,
If diseased. Many diseases that were
formerly treated by the giving of drugs
are now cured by electricity. There is no
doubt that sleeping with the had to the
north Is beneficial."
Thomas A. Edison docs not toko much
stock in the theory, however. "It's
simply a matter of sett-hypnosis," be de
clares. "If a ' nervous person thinks he
will sleep better headed dua north it Is
well for htm to do so. I find I can sleep
well no matter what direction I'm headed
If I can only get to bed."
The research work at Columbia univers
ity under Prof. O. V. Wendel has brought
out the fact that d'Arsonval, a French
scientist who lived in tho eighteenth cen
tury, experimented along these lines and
found that people who slept with trfelr
heads pointing to the north magnetic
pole slept more soundly than those
whose heads pointed In other directions.
His experiments were made from 1715 to
1730. He" explained the phenomena on the
theory that in all the hundreds of cases
studied by him the flow of the mag
netic current going on all the time over
the earth's surface from the north mag
netic to the south magnetic pole Induced
a weak current of electricity In the bed
on which those who were being observed
slept, the principle being exactly he sam
as electrical current Is now generated it

Jannus Now Ready
For Long Flight to
Gulf of Mexico
Tony Jannus made a trial flight at
Carter lake yesterday afternoon and
found his hydro-aeroplane In excellent
working condition to begin his air and
water voyagp to Now Orleans this aft

RUMOR OF MERGING OF
C. G. W. AND MARQUETTE
Arcnrdlnc to the statement ot Assistant
General Manager Alfred of the Pero Mar- '
quette, his' visit to 0 mail a has no stg-,
nlflcance, but according to many of tho
local railroad men, It has to do wltn Uio
drlv merclnir of this road with tho Chi
cago Great Western, both Morgan prop
erties.
Mr. Alfred arrived In his private car
over the Chicago Great Western, and
soon thereafter made a social call at the
various railroad headquarters, later In the
day leaving for tho west.
Whllo In the city Mr. Alfred looked
over the terminals and other properties
of tho Chicago G eat Wtstecn In Omaha
South Omaha and Council Bluffs, refusing
to comment, more than to Bay that tho
terminal facilities of the road seemed to
be excellent.
Not long ago tho Pere Marquette was
taken over by the Morgan Interests and
S. K. Felton, then president of tho Chi
cago Great Western, placed at Its head.
Prior to this Mr. Felton had secured Ills
promotion of the Chicago Great Westorn
