Good Night!
Sleep Well!
W
AR worries.
We can't make
plans... for we don't know what's
going to happen..
But that doesn't prevent us from try- ing like mad to fix the future.
Lying stiff under the ciderdown, staring into the darkness, we discuss pros and cons with our selves. Round and round go the arguments, backwards and forwards, ticks the poor old brain. ..No wonder we fall into a farly and fitful aleep and wake late and tired.
Yet a good sleep is absolutely necessary to keep us fit and cheerful.. A good sleep for a woman is between eight and nine hours. A mere man can do with between seven and eight. Actually, though, quality makes up for quantity:" you can do with fewer hours of deep sweet sleep, needing more if it is fitful.
What can we do to give ourselves every chance of sleeping well and so waking well? A. P. Luscombe Whyte gave us some answers to this question last week. Here are some more angwer--a collection of hints from various people, and they all swear their reniedies are infallible:
1. Go To Bed Early
Insomnia comes because we ignore the rhythm of nature, which is, sleep at sundown, wake at sunrise. We should usually go to bed not later than 10.0, rise not later than 7.0
2. Sleep In The Nude
Tight pyjamas tied round the middle constrict free circula- tion and are stuffy. A loose nightgown or nightshirt is better: the nude best of all, say some sleep enthusiasts.
3. No Fussy Hangings
No unnecessary furniture in the bedroom; fool-coloured walls, an atmosphere of freshness and emptiness. Take the black-out down before you get into bed.
4. Lots of Air
Windows open day and night, but not a draught round your head while you sleep. If you have a radiator, turn it off always before going to bed. If you have a warmed room, an open fire is healthiest, as it keeps the air moving.
5. Darkness and Quiet
Nowadays we are not likely to keep a light burning in the room, nor will street lamps are outside. A good thing: dark- nesa and quiet are the first essentials for sleep. If you live in n place where there are unnatural noises like trailie, factory or rail- way noises, stuff your ears gently with a wad of cotton wool or special car pads are sold by chemists. --
6. Light Supper
If you have your main meal in the evening it should be finished at least two hours before you go to bed. It's a wonder some English people sleep at all, the late suppers they have! Fish and chips, meat ples, strong teal No. Cut these out and take something light and easily digested-soup, fruit (if it suits

you an apple is said to induce sleep), barley water or a hot milk drink. Others may like to try the soporific' camomile herb Lea in place of coffee or other stimulants.
7. A Good Bed
An even, firm mattress, not too soft. Feather beds bad, Too many heavy coverings bad; get accustomed to sleeping in a hardish bed, with light coverings. Those openwork wool blankets are excellent. Take the position most comfortable to you. Re- member it's natural to move in your sleep, every hour or so. That's why, if you're a light sleeper, you should saw your double bed in two and sleep alone.
8. Evening Exercise
Turn out before you turn in-take a short stroll the fresh air, round the garden or round the block, or do a few very short, very simple limbering exercises-shrug your shoulder's, touch your toes, relax and roll head and neck, Give a few deep breaths as you settle into bed, then stretch and relax.
9. Quiet Mind
All these suggestions will help, but we say the quiet mind helps most of all. If you're in a puzzle about something or wor- ried about how your affairs are going, do all you can to put mat- ters.right. Then you can rest content, knowing you have done your best, and sleep will come.
