EATING BEFORE SLEEPING.
The Prejudice Against This Habit I'm
grounded and Foolish.
From The Nstg York Journal 81 Commerce.

From The .Nslg York Journal Of Commerce.
Man is the only animal that can be
taught to sleep quietly on an empty
stomach. The brute creation resent all
efforts TO coax them to such violation
of the laws of nature. The lion roars in
the forest 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 squeal in the pen,
refusing all rest or sleep until they are
fed. The animals which chew the cud
have their own provisions for late
meal Just before dropping of to their
nightly Slumbers. Man can train him.
self to the habit of sleeping without
preceding meal, but only after long
wears of practice. AS he comes into the
world nature is too strong for him, and
he must be fed before he will sleep. y
child's stomach is small, and when per-
fectly filled, if no sickness diSturbS 1t,
sleep follows naturally and inevitably.
AS digestion goes on, the stomach be-
gins TO get empty. y single fold IN IL
will make the little sleeper restless;
two will waken it; and iii is huShed
again to repOSe the nap is short, and
three folds put an end To the slumber.
ParagOric or other narcotic may close its
ewes again, but without either food or
some supplying drug, it will not sleep,
no matter how healthy it may be. Not
even an angel who learned the art of
minstrelsy i'm celestial choir can sing
n babe to sleep upon an empty stomach.
We use theOft-quoted illustration sleep
ing as sweetly as an infant" because
this Slumber of a child follows imme-
diately after its stomach is completely
filled with wholesome food. The sleep
which comes to adults long hours after
partaking of food, and when the
stomach is nearly OF quite empty IS not
after the type of infantile repOse. There
is all the difference in the world be-
tween the sleep Ofrefreshment and the
sleep of exhaustion. To sleep well
blood that swells the veins in the head,
during our busy hours must flow back,
leaving a greatly diminished volume
behind the brow that lately throbbed
with such vehemenee. To digest well,
this blood is needed at the stomach and
nearer the fountains of life. 1t is fact,
established beyond the possibility OF
contradiction, that sleep aids this dlges-
ton, and that the process of digestion IS
refreshing sleep. Ii needs no argument
to convince us of this mutual relation.
The drOwsineSs which always follows
the we'll ordered meal is itself testl-
mony of nature to this inter-depend-

Business in local circles for the past
week has not been marked by any I'M
usual feature. Money is plenty at the
banks and they continue to meet al
demands of regular customers at the
usual rate. The influx of currency from
the country continues, and there IS but
a light demand, so that large surplus
is piling up.
The labor question continues to eXer-
else an unsettling influence on general
trade and movements are quiet, and
disposition is manifested to await further
developments before entering into large
contracts at prices which an increase oil
wages might cause to be losing ones.
Nails are nominally held at card rates,
but . per cent off is allowed for cash, and
10 per cent additional on round lots OF
200 kegs or over.
Groceries continue firm for all staple
articles, and dealers report a good JOB
bling trade. Flour has fallen off slightly,
while wheat, which is in good demand,
with light receipts, has advanced TO

change, and all offerings are freely
taken at full figures.
In dry goods, trade continues remark
ably good. Orders are constantly com
ing in, and dealers report a highly sat-

OSCAR wILDES' NEW CLOTHES.
How the !Esthetic Young Men OF New
York Are Expected TO Dress.

Mr. Oscar Wilde is coming back, like
young Lochinvar, ''Out of the West"
like giant refreshed. He has been so
enthusiastically welcomed from Chicago
to I.eadville as the apostle of new era
that lie intends to grapple with the
great clothes question in deadly earnest.
He has planned and furnished the
drawings to New York artist in toy
gerry for two costumes not only utterly
utter" but lovely and eXhilarating
beyond ali modern comparison, in which
within a few days New York may
expect To see him illuminate our public
places. Mr.. Writ, the fortunate artist
who has deem intruSted with this COM
mission, was kind enough yesterday TO
give reporter of the World the follow
ing lucid and instructive sketch of the
coming garb:
"Well, | am making two suits for Mr..
Wilde according TO his order and draw
ings, one to be of black velvet and the
other to be of the shade of a lake glist-
ening i'm the moonlight. The shade is
called cOuleur du lac au elarde la lune."
This explanation seemed perfectly
satisfactory, but rather general, and the
artist was asked for details. These the
artist gave. He said that there were two
suits, one black and the other mouse
color. The black suit has plain black
velvet doublet fitting tight to the body,
without any visible buttons, after the
style of Francis l., the lower part of the
sleeves being OfembOSsed velvet, with
| embroidered field flower designs and
| fitting tight to the arm. The upper part
/ ofthe arm is to be in large putfs of the
same material, Ouly of larger pattern,
/ and the body of plain velvet. The
sleeves are of two designs of brOcaded
! velvet edged with a delicate ruflle of
/ mOuSSeline de sole. Around the neck Is
| also narrow frill in three rows of the
| same material as that which edges the
| sleeves. The breeches are to come to the
! knee and to be tight fitting, with two
I small buttons at the bottom. The stock
| ings are to be of black. silk and the
/ shoes cut low and secured with silver
| buckle. Ii may be interesting to know
| that the following are the dimensions of
| the costumes in inches: Trousers, 30
| inches; bottom of dOublet, 45i; waist,
| IS, and breast, 3d.. The putf5 at the
upper part Ofthe sleeves 32 inches, at
! the bottom IL inches, the collar being
! l. inches i'm size. Yesterday Col. Morse
received a telegram from his agent, who
| is with Mr.. Wilde, informing Col. Morse
| that Mr.. Wilde had received an offer
] from Australia for the summer. Col
Morse said he had several engagements
for Mr.. Wilde through the South, but if
| there was u better opening in Australia
| Of course Mr.. Wilde would go there.
Col. Morse said that Mr.. Wilde'S share
! of his lectures would amount to over
/ S.iU, 600.
