FACTS CONCERNING 8LEEP. vta Mlddsr Nap Is Uatter than the Noon MaU Tha scholar aud profeaslonal man, like the anxious housewife. Is apt to carry bla cares to bed, and Insomnia becomes a curse. Men and women who are busied In getting and gaining, the merchant, tha banker, all alike, fall to secure that self-coutrol which can manao-e tha mind aa well asleep as awake. Normal sleep should be purely a phy alologlcal repos similar- to the rest ot animals, who go to sleep with the darkness and awake with the light Some one baa said that sleep Is like hunger and thirst, representing a dl mluutlon of energy throughout the en tire body. I hardly think thla can tie true, but In my Judgmeut aleep rather suggests the diminution of the energy of the brain, and he la wise man whu takes the bint when brain fag seta lu of an evening and goes comfortably and properly to bed. Of course It goes without saying that night Is not the only time for sleep. Men aud women who are busy could steal Just a few minutes before or after the noonday luncheon to catch a little nap, anil. Indeed. I am nearly sure that the noonday nap la worth far more than the noonday meal, for the digestive processes are surely binder ed during the periods of mental activ ity, and It la the exceptional iwrson In this busy world of ours who Is not called upon to use all bis brain and brawn to make a living. It haa beou my habit to advise mothers to steal a tillo away from every "cumbering care." ana even ir sleep rails to be wooed to take about twenty minutes every day In absolute peare and quiet ness, diverting the mind from all anx tetlea and relaxing all the muscles. A habit of this kind ts easily acquired. and we mlglit have fewer neurasthenic women whose nerves make life hideous to their families. If a word like this. poken from considerable experience, were heeded.

Persona who rise In the world are not alwaya as frank about their former place In life aa good sense and humor might lead them to be. Dean Hole, In his book of reminiscences, "Now and Then, tU a little story of one whose tumor did not desert him In time of prosperity. A footman who bad begun life a a doctor's boy grew Interested In the study of medicine, and spent hla leisure bours reading medical books. He came tn tbe Uulted States, worked hard aa student and as a physician for many years, and attained a large practice. After aorta year of absence he re turned to England.
