SLEEPING OH All EMPTY STOMACH.

Man is the only animal that can be
taught to sleep quietly On an empty stom'
ach. The brute creation resent all efforts
to coax them to such violation of the
laws of Nature The lion roars in the for
est until he has found his prey, and when
he has devoured it he sleeps over until he
needs another meal. The horse will paw
all night in the stable, and the pig viii
squeal in the pen, refusing all rest or sleep
until they are fed. The animals which
chew the cud have their own provision for
a late meal just before dropping off to their
nightly slnmbers. Man can train himself
to the habit of sleeping without preceding
meal, but only after long years of practice
AS he comes into the world Nature is too
strong for him, and he must be fed before
he will sleep. A child's stomach is small,
and when perfectly filled, if no sickness
disturbs it, sleep follows naturally and in.
eyitablv. As digestion goes on the stom-
ach begins to empty. A single fold in it
will make the little sleeper restless two
will waken it and if it is hushed again to
repose the nap is short, and three folds put
an end to the slunber. Paregoric or other
narcotic may close its eyes again, but without
either food or some Supplying drug it will
not sleep, no matter how healthy 1t may
be. Not even an angel who learned the
art of minstrelsy in q celestial choir can
sing babe to sleep on an empty stom-
ach. We used the oft.quoted illustration,
"sleeping as sweetly as an infant, because
this slumber of a child follows Immediately
after it's stomach is completely filed with
wholesome food. The sleep which comes
TO adults long after partaking of food, and
when the stomach is nearly or quite
empty, is not after the type OF infantile
repose. There is all the difference 10 the
world between the sleep of refreshment
and the sleep of exhaustion. To sleep well
the blood that swells the veins in the
head during our busy hours must flow
hack, leaving a greatly diminished volume
behind the brow that lately throbbed with
such vehemence. To digest well, this
blood is needed at the stomach, and nearer
the fountains OF life. 1t is a fact estab-
lished beyond the possibility of contra
diction that sleep aids digestion, and that
the process Of digestion is conducive to re-
freshing sleep. It needs no argument to
convince us of this mutual relation. The
drowsiness which always follows the WELL
ordered meal is itself a testimony of nature
to this NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. York

whicha week agoprociaimed Kairwan's
unconditional surrender of its position
as " an intact Moslem city," and its
remuneration for eve of its pretensions
to uphold any longer the spirit of its
most cherished traditions. The
view from the minGr of Sid Okhba
at Kairwan is avery remarkable one.
Immediately beneath us were the pillar
ed cloisteIs Of the mosque itself, and.
the domes, cupolas, roofs, and nina
rets Of the countless colleges, schools
and other buildings in which Tuni-
slams have tor ten centuries and
more "steeped themselves in Islam
ism" Beyond, the crumbling city
walls the Kasbnh and the Bpy's
palace with the French flag flying
V them !; the five great gates
guarded by French soldiers; and the
ruined forts undergoing repairs at
the hands Of French engineers. In
the far north | could see the noun
tains Of Zaghouan and the passes Of
Foum-e!-Karouba. whence General
Saussier has just marched; to the
cast the sandy plains which separate
the old world life of Kairwan from
the commercial activity CT the shores
of the Mediterranean to the west
another plain less sandy and more
fertile, upon which are encamped the
$4,000 soldiers commanded by Gene
rails Saussier, Logerot, Forgemoi, ST.
Jean, and Etienne and to the south
the barren hills and rocky mountains
over which the $4,000 Arabs, who
ten days ago surrounded Kairwun,
rapidly retreated to create fresh diff
culties for the French army among
the wastes of Cabes and the deserts
Of the Djerid. Mr.. Rae thinks the
conqueror Of Africa Sid, ONhba, re SIS
in Holy Kairwan, but as a matter o:
fact the great warrior lies in a very
humble tomb 80 miles south of Biskra
in Algeria. His memory is still
revered i'll both countries, and the
Turcos Of tie French army round
Kairwan visit the great mosque in
large numbers. While I was per
forming the hitherto forbidden task of
counting the columns, some of the
Kairwan Mlema were busily engaged
i'll telling the legends of their great
ancestor to their Algerian co-religion-
lists. If anything has shaken the faith
of the people Of Kairwan in a COM
ing Moslem revival as far as 1unis is
concerned, it is the march Of Gener-
al Forgemops Algerian troops across
their town, but nevertheless the
main body of insurgents as yet make
no sign of surrender or submission.

to a second French camp some Is
miles to the west, pitched to the right
of the Sid ell HAM marsh-laTe and
around the low white cupolas viii CHI
cover the remains of that saint and
bis son. The eight famous wells of
Ell HAM turned out to be all in their
normal condition, and on the brink of
one Of them sat an unfortunate Italian
camp follower, who had been robbed
of his s~tock-in-trade by the Arabs
while travelling towards Susao on thepre-
vious evening. Half an hour later, the
mindr of the great Mosque of Okhba
at Kairwan-" the most sacred
building in all Africa"-became visi-
bic, S anding out with strange dis
t%inctness against a background of blue
hills. Shortly after midday we pass
ed through the gate of the citadel,
which does not at Kairwan occupy
the commanding position usually as
signed to the Kashhah in most Moorish
cities. Having paid a visit to Gene
raj Etienne and obtained a written
permission to stay in the city, L &C
cepted the invitation of a Kairwan
Grandee, Sy Amor Ben Yunes ell
Khaia, to take possession Of the guest
chamber in his house, in which he has
already entertained several European
travellers. AS a rumour was very
generally current that the permission
granted to visit the various religious
edifices would be withdrawn, ! lost
no time in securing the services of an
efficient guide and making a minute
examination of the interior of the
great Mosque of Sid Okhba, the
founder alike Of Kairwan and of
Moslem supremacy in North Africa.
Mr.. Rae's description Of the exterior
OF the building, which was recently
alluded to in The Times, is in the main
correct, and the survey made by
French engineers also confirms his
measurements. The details he receiy-
ed from II Moslem source as to the
arrangements of the interior were
inaccurate and destroy in a measure
the vnlue Of the ground plan Of this
unique building which illustrates his
"Country of the Moors."
The Mosque Of Okhba is SO con
structed as to be in a direct line with
the city of Mecca, and, it runs, there
fore, east and west. The prayer
chamber faces the east, while the
mindr or tower is built at its western
extremity. On the southern side are
four handsome porches. The door of
the southeast angle Of the ediice
leads directly into the prayer cham
Der, which is approached by a similar
entrance on the northern side. The
gross length of the mosque is 142
yards ;its breadth varies from So yards
to IS. The prayer chamber measures
exactly 40 yards by SO. It's main
feature is a great central nave, the
lofty arched roof of which is support
ed by a double row of enormous
black marble columns, with nine less
ser aisles on either side of it, having
a fiat ceiling resting on arches spring
ing from Is rows of smaller columns
Of every conceivable shade and
colour. The prayer-chamber is Sc
narrated from the ADJOINING yeStibule
, 1881-12-28

IN close proximity. Most OF the
capitals are Corinthian and of white
marble, but I noticed some of stone
or rough yellow marble and of pure
Byzantine form. These latter are
very beautiful and are adorned with
grotesqua combinations of fruit,
flowers, and ven figures, after the
manner of the most ancient buildings
in Sicily. Against the southern wall
Of the prayer-chamber is n row of
IS columns, three being placed close
together on the right of the door,
with a solitary Byzantine pillar on
the opposite side. Each of the other
rows contains 10 columns, except hat
of the northern wall, which posses
ses II. The most remarkable por-
ton of the whole building is the nave,
which terminates in a dome lighted
by stained glass windows directly
over the mihrdb. Nearly all the pillars
Of the nave are black or Of a dark
colour, and are at least 2Oft in
height. The capitals are very largeand
all white. The wall above the arches
is covered with delicate tracerv in
chiselled cement. The little apse for
the mihYdb is lined with mosaic in
different coloured marbles, and has a
red porphyry pillar on either side Of
it's arch. To its left is a large slab
of white marble, surrounded by
broad bands of verd antique. 1t is
covered with emblems, and is said to
have been placed there by Okhba
himself 1900 years ago. The mjmbar
or pulpit, is on the right of the mib-
RIB and is about 12ft. high. 1t has
II steps, is exquisitely carved, and
in It's side are several mall doors,
with curiously-wrought bronze hinges.
There are 40 pillars in the rave
alone, two groups Of four each being
directly under the eastern dome.
The total number Of columns in
the prayer chamber, including the
facade, is exactly 206. The building
is indifferentIy lighted by clusters Of
small glass lamps suspended from the
roof. When the doors are closed
and the w~orshippers engaged in
evening prayer the scene is a very
impressive one and not easily to be
forgotten. The prayer-chamher opens
on to a vestibule, the roof of which is
somewhat lower, but which has a
second dome in line with the cen
trail nave. The columns and arches
of the veStibule are much moie
lofty than those Of the c%loister or
arcade which runS along the remain
ing portion Of the southern and
northern walls, leaving a large open
space in the centre, paved with slabs
Of white marble, now in a very dilapi-
dated condition. The pavement
covers vast water-cisterns beneath,
and in the middle Of the court is a
very complex marble sundial, appar-
entity of no great antiquity. The
total number of columns in the vesti-
bule is "a and in the cloisters 172,
making a total of 412, in the interior
of the mosque but their arrange
ment is by no means uniform. Those
in the prayer-chamber present every
variety of richness and colour, but
the pillars in the vestibule and clois-
Lyon County times. [volume] (Silver City, Nev.) 1874-1907, 1881-09-17
COMPETITION COMING.

A we'll posted correspondent,
writing to the Salt Lake Tribune
from Colorado, says: "The Denver
and Rio Grande, aid the Denver,
Western g. Pacific are both building
from here to Salt Lake-tighting for
the night Of way through the mount
ain gorges, on about the same line.
The latter is supposed to be under
the patronage of the Chicago, Bur-
lington and Quincy. You will get
one, and probably both of these
lines; but the only new information
I have acquired is the fact that the
Union Pacific will certainly extend
the Utah Central to San Francisco,
on a line which will make it one
hundred miles shorter than the Cen
trail Pacific line. OF course this will
force the Central Pacific to con-
nection with the Denver & Rio
Grande and the Denver, Western &
Pacific.
