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.
