SLEEP AS A MEDICINE.

The cry for rest has always been
louder than the cry for food. Not
that il is moro important, but it is
often harder to get. The best rest
comes from sound sleep. OF two
men or women, otherwise equal, the
one who sleeps the best will be the
most moral, healthy and efficient. -
Sleep will do much to cure irritabili-
" Of temper, peevishncss, uncasi-
ness. 1t will restore to vigor an
overworked brain. 1t will cure
hypochondria. 1t will cure the
headache. 1t will cure the heart
ache. II will cure neuralgia. II
will cure a broken spirit. 1t will
cure sorrow. Indeed, we might
make long list Of nervous maladies
that sleep will cure. The cure of
sleeplessness requires a clean, good
bed, sufficient exercise to produce
WEAKNESS, pleasant occupation, good
air and not too warm room, free
dom from too much care, clear
stomach, a clear conscience, and
avoidance of s,imulants and narcot-
les. For those who are overwork>
ed, haggard, nervous, who pass
sleepless nights, we commend the
adoption Of such habits as shall SO
cure sleep otherwise life will be
short, and what there is Of it sadly
imperfect.

TWO SCENES.

A gentleman took his SOP to drum
ken row in tavern, where the in
mates were fighting aad swearing,
and, said he, "Do you know what
has caused all this ~
"No, sir
His father, pointing to the decan-
tiers sparkling with rum, said, "1Aot's
the cause; will you take drink y
The boy started back with horror,
and exclaimed, "NoW
Then he took his child to tho cage
of a man with delirioue tremens.---
The boy gazed upon him affrighted
as the arunkard raved and tore, and
thinking the demons were after him,
cried, "I.eavo me aloncl leave mo
alone! ! see 'em they're coming y
do you know the cause of this,
my hoy 7"
"No, sir"
"rhis is caused by drink /; viii you
have some 7"
And he shrank with shudder as
he refused tho cup.
Next they called at the miserable
howell of drunkard, where was
squalid poverty, and the drunken
father beating his wife, and with
oaths, knocking down his children.
What has caused this I said the
father.
The son was silent. When told
il was rum. he declared he would
never touch drop in his life. But
suppose that lad should be invited to
wedding feast, where with fruit and
cake the wine-cup is passed amid
scenes of cheerfulness and CAVITY,
where all the friends are respectable,
beloved, and kind to each other, aud
he should be asked to drink, would
he refuse I Or, suppose him walk
ing out with his father on New
Years day to call upon his young
lady friends to enjoy the festivity of
the ushering in of the new year
With other things, wine is handed
to him by smiling girl. His noble
hearted father whom he loves, press
es the wine glass to his lips, and
compliments the young ladies upon
the excellence of its quality what
wonder if the son follow his exam

A FAST STORY.

n x 29A 6ASAhA
An Englishman was braging Of the
speed OF English railroads TO YAM
kee traveller seated at his side in one
of the cars of a "fast train" in Eng.
land. The engine bell was rung as
the train neared q station 1t sug-
gested to the Yankee an opportunity
of taking down his companion peg
or two.n
What's that noise innocently
inquired the. Yankee
We are approaching town. said
the Englishman. They have to com
mence ringing about ten miles before
they get to station, or else the train
would run by before the bell could
be heardi Wonderful, isn't it l
suppose they havn't invented bells
in America YETI
why, yes replied the Yankee ;
We've got bells, but can't use them
on our railroads. We run so tarnal
fast that train always keeps ahead
Of the sound. No use whatever ;
the sound never reaches the village
till after the train gets BY
Indeed 7 exclaimed the English
man.
Fact, said the Yankee /; had to
give up bells. Then we tried steam
whistles, but they wouldn't answer
either. / was on the locomotive
when the whistle was tried. We
were going at tremendous rate
hurricanes was nowhar-and | had
to hold my hair on. We saw two
horse wagon crossing the track,
about five miles ahead, and the en-
gineer let the whistle on, screeching
like a trooper. Itscreamed awfully,
but it wasn't no use. The next thing
knew, | was picking myself out Of
pond by tho roadside, amid the
fragments of the locomotive, dead
horses, broken wagon, and dead en-
gineer, lying beside me. Just then
a whistle came along, mixed up with
some frightful oa,hs that ! heard the
engineer use when he first saw the
horses. Poor fellow! he was dead
before his voice got to him. After
that we tried lights, supposing these
would travel faster than sound
We got some so powerful that the
chickens woke up oil along the road
when we came by, supposing it to
be morning. But the locomotive
kept ahead Of it still, and was in
the darkness with the light on close
behind it. The inhabitants petit
toned against it; they could not
sleep with SO much light in the
night time Finally, we had to sta
ton electric telegraphs along the
road, with signal men to telegraph
when train was in sight, and have
heard that some of the fast trains
beat the lightning fifteen seconds
every forty miles, But can't say
as that is true--the rest ! know to
be so.
