Hints on Sleep.

The question of chief Importance to
most people in these overweight,
wakeful days and nights is how to get
good sleep enough. DR.. Corning drops
a few simple hints which may be of
value. In the first place, people
should have regular time for going
to sleep, and it should be as soon as
can be after sunset. People who sleep
at any time according to convenience,
get less benefit from their sleep than
others: getting sleep becomes more
difficult; there is tendency to nerv-
GUS excitability and arrangement; the
repair of the system does not equal the
waste. The more finely organized peo-
pie are, the greater the difficulty and
the danger from this cause. The first
thing in order to sleep well Is to go to
bed at regular hour, and make it as
early as possible. The next thing is
to exclude all worry and exciting sub
jects of thought from the mind some
time before retiring. The body and
mind must he let down from the high
pressure strain before going to bed, so
that nature can assert her rightful
supremacy afterward. Another point
is, never to thwart the drowsy impulse
when it comes at the regular time by
special efforts to keep awake, for this
drowsiness is the advance guard of
healthy, restorative sleep. Sleep is
boon which must not be tempered with
and put off, for if compelled to wait, it
is never so perfect and restful rs if
taken in its own natural time and way.
The right side is the best to sleep on,
except in special cases of disease, and
the position should be nearly horizont-
al. Finally, the evening meal should
be composed of food most easily digest
ed and assimilated, so that the stomach
will have little hard work to do. A
heavy, rich dinner taken in the eve
ming is one Of the things that murder
sleep. Late suppers with exciting
foods and stimulating drinks mako
really restorative sleep next to inn
possible. Narcotics are to be avoided,
gave az used in cases of disease by
competent physicians. The proper
time, according to DR.. Corning, to
treat sleeplessness is in the daytime,
and it must be treated by a wise and
temperate method of living rather than
by medicines. This is good common
sense, says the Ne'c York Star, from
which paper we copy, and doubtless
vast deal of the debility, nervous de-
rangement, and the insanity of our
time would be prevented by more
good, restful natural sleep. Scientific
