Cause Of sIeeplessness.

DR.. Duckworth, in the British Medi-
cal Journal, calls attention to some.
causes OF insomnia which he thinks arc
hardly sufficiently recognized or ade-
quately met by the resources OF practi-
cal medicine. Recent researches have
clearly shown that the brain is COM
paratively anmmio during sleep, and
that the blood thus removed from the
head is more freely supplied to the
viscera and integuments. The most
constant cause and certainly the most
frequent accompaniment OF sleepless.
ness Is m opposite condition, or one Of
active and increased cerebral circula-
tion. A species Of nocturnal dyspepsia,
mild in its character and producing no
actual suffering, may sometimes give
rise TO persistent insomnia. There may
be no symyto toms beyond dryneBs OF the
mouth, burning OF the soles Of the
feet, and heat and throbbing in tho
head, and these are probably due to
too acid condition OF the contents Of
the stomach, and upper part Of the
small intestines, caused generally by
excess in fatty and highly-seasoned
food, in fruit, and in various wines.
Sleeplessness may be due to bodily
and mental over exhaustion, which re-
suits in an increased flow OF blood to
The brain, consequent upon vaso.motor
paralysis. Again, II may be the result
OF mere habit, as in those cases where
there has been q long course Of broken
rest II may be caused by persistent
odors, by certain eilluvia, by the ab-
sence Of moisture in the air Of sleep
ing apartment, or by an improper eleya-
ton or depression Of the head. The
treatment In most OF these cases should
OF course be directed TO the removal Of
the cause, but, when II is found neces-
sary to give drugs, bromide Of potas.
sium and chloral hydrate arc probably
the best, both having been shown 10
diminish the amount Of blood circula-
ting through the brain.

Destiny Did II,

An instance Of destiny.o Not long
ago an English mechanic having yaiply
used all his ingenuity in endeayoring to
get him wife, Advertised for one In a
at Of despair. He was profoundly in
earnest, and 30 was the dame who re-
sponded. They met, but whether IL
was the color Of her hair, or the shape
Of her nose, or her disposition, IL Is not
said-but he didn't fall captive to her
charms. He advertised again, varying
the form Of his announcement, and
when he had an answer went TO see his
correspondent with q heart beating
high with hope. Alas He found the
equally persevering spinster again. A
third timo he wooed Fate with vet
differently worded beguilement He
reached the appointed place Of meeting
twas She I Crushed 10 the earth.
and convinced, like Mr.. Swiveller, that
destiny was full OF staggerers, he
smiled, he conversed, and meekly az
last welded the determined woman.

THE ENGLISH OMNIBUS,

The English bus system is superior

them. On the box with the driver is
accommodation for four persons. Run.

quently there is no trodding OF corns or
punches in the chest by the passengers
unable TO keep their feet.
Each bus has its conductor, and the
fares, plainly marked inside, are
graded with the distance, the lowest
being two-pence and the highest six.

The favorite place for the masculires
