They use rum to get some sleep (4-3)
I believe the answer is:
shut-eye
'some sleep' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'they use rum' is the wordplay.
'rum' indicates an anagram (rum can mean strange or unusual).
'they'+'use'='theyuse'
'theyuse' anagrammed gives 'SHUT-EYE'.
'to get' is the link.
(Another definition for shut-eye that I've seen is " Sleep".)
