A Cure FOR SLEEPLEssNEss.-
Thousands suffer from wakefulness who
are otherwise in good health. To some
of them this becomes habit, and too
often a growing one. Some resort TO
soporific drugs, and this is how the
opium crave is often initiated. Others
fad wine or spirits occasionally effec-
tual, and are thus induced 10 take alco-
hol every night, and not few, It is
feared, have in this way laid the foun-
dat,on OF intemp-rance. There have,
however, never been wanting people
who have found way Of going to
sleep without resort to such measures.
The mesmerists at one time were pop
ular, and from them host Of people
learnt that looking at any fixed point
steadily would often succeed in inducing
sleep. In the dark, however, this is
not so easy; but this difficulty was not
telt in Braidism, which consisted mere
ly in closing the ewes and trying to
think they were watching sttentively
the stream Of air entering and leaving
the nostrils. 1t was asserted that who
ever would will to see this stream as IL
it were visible would infallibly soon fall
asleep. We have known the plan to
succeed, and itis evidently the same
in principle as fixing the attention on
any single visible object. Anotherplan
has just reached US proposed by an
American physician, DR.. Cooke. who
tells us than in numerous cases OF
sleeplessness it is only necessary to
breathe very slowly and quietly for a
lew minutes to secure refreshing sleep.
He thinks that most cases depend on
hyperemia Of the brain. and that in
this slow breathing the blood->upply is
lessened sS6ciently TO make an i'm
preston. Certainly. when the mind is
uncontrollably active. and so prevent
ing sleep, we have ascerta'ned from
patients, whose observation was worth
trusting. that the breathing was quick
and short. and they have found they
became more disposed TO sleep BY
breathing slowly. This supports Dr..
Cookies practice, but at other times his
plan quite failed. 1t is certainly worth
any ones while who is occasionally
sleepless to give It a trial. In doing Sc
they should breathe very quietly. rath-
er deeply, and at long intervals, but no,
long enough to cause the least feeling
OF uneasiness. In 6ne, they should
initiate person sleeping, and do II
steadily for several minutes.
