many of our business men work their
brains and abuse their bodies begcts an
irritable condition of the nerves, and Il
morbid state of mind, very antagonistc

persons will often 80 to bed weary and
exhausted, but cannot sleep; or sleep
dreamily and tittully; or lie awake for
hours, unable to sleep at all. We have
tried many expedients to induce sleep
with more or less success, and have read
many recipes which proved better in
theory than in practice. The very best
method we have yet discovered is that
of counting. Breathe deeply and slow
ly without any straining etiort) and,
with every respiration, count one. two,
three, etc, up to hundred. Some per,
sons will be asleep before they can count
fifty in this manner. Others will count
ten, twenty, or thirty, and then forget
themselves and cease counting. In such
cases always commence again at one.
Very few persons can count one hun
