RIGHT OR LEFT.

It has been asserted with much authoritative emphasis, that inability to sleep on the left side is indicative of disorder or feebleness of the heart. But here comes somebody who talks thus about sleeping on the left side: " It is the most prolific cause of nightmare, and. also of the unpleasant taste in the mouth on arising in the morning. All food enters and leaves the stomach on the right side, and hence sleeping on the left side soon after eating involves a sort of pumping operation which is anything but conducive to sound repose. The action of the heart is also seriously interfered with and the lungs unduly compressed. Hence it is best to cultivate the habit of always sleeping on the right side, although Sandow and other strong men are said to invariably sleep on their backs." Well, "doctors disagree," but our own experience is that if you are going on a journey, and secure a compartment in the Pullman Sleeper on the "Burlington" vestibuled limited, it will not make any difference on which side you sleep—you will have a good rest; and as for "unpleasant taste in the mouth on rising," the appetizing breakfast in the dining car will quickly and effectually remove that. In going to Chicago or St. Louis. see that your ticket agent gives you a ticket via the Burlington Route, or write to W. J. C. Kenyon, Gen. Pass. Agent, St. Paul, Minn.
