Sleeping and Eating.

When people sit up late at night,
particularly if they are delicate, they
should eat something, if only slice
of bread and butter, before retiring.
This seems heretical, but is not. Ami
mails, after eating, instinctively sleep.
Human beings become drowsy after
full meal. Why? Because blood is
solicited toward the stomach to sup
ply the juices needed in digestion.
Hence the brain receives less blood
than during fasting, becomes pale
and the powers grow dormant. Sleep
therefore ensues. This is physiologi-
cal. The sinking sensation in Sleep
lessness is a call for food. Wakeful-
ness often is merely symptom of
hunger. Crafty the desire and you
will fall asleep. The feeble will be
stronger at dawn if they eat on going
TO bed. Fourteen hours lie between
supper and breakfact. BY that time
the fuel of the body has become eX-
pended. Consequently the morning
toilet fatigues many. Let such eat
at bedtime, and take glass of warm
milk or beef tea before rising. In
creased vigor will result. "But the
stomach must rest" True. Yet when
hungry we must eat. Does the in
fant's stomach rest as long as an
adults? The latter eats less often
merely because his food requires more
digestion. Seldom can one remain
awake until 1890 or II O'Clock with
out hunger. Satisfy it and sleep will
be sounder. During the night give
wakeful children food. Sleep will
follow, The sick should invariably
eat during the night. This is imper-
alive. Alright the delicate and chill
dren may take, slowly, warm milk,
beef tea or oatmeal Cruel. Vigorous
adults may also eat bread and milk,
cold beef, mutton, chicken and bread,
raw oysters, all, of course, in moder'
alton. Do not eat if not hungry. Eat
if YOU are.-BoW-B Bells.

AN EXTRAORDINARY OFFER
To all Wanting Employment.

having no competition, and on which

With all these advantages to our
agents, and the fact that it is an ar

have concluded to make it to show,
not only our confidence in the merits

by any agent that will handle it with
energy. Our agents now at work are
making from $3.50 to 5000 a month

out of employment. Any agent that

Advices Regarding Business of a More En-

Advices Regarding Business of a More En-
couraging Character.
INDIANAPOLIS, Feb. 26.
With the exception Of a somewhat increased
activity, the situation remains unchanged. Yet
sdvices from nearly all quarters are of a more
encouraging character, and it begins to lcok as
if the dullness, which has really been monoton-
GUS, is nearing its close. We find, upon inquiry,
that business is improving with most of the
manufacturing interests, and this is a favorable
omen. The quiet tone to business is explained
by, Bradstreets as follows: The weather at the
West and Northwest has been of such a charac-
ter as to materially curtail trading, and special
dispatches from those regions point to a note
worthy decline, as compared with weeks immedi-
ately preceding. The roads have also been i'm
passable in many localities, q circumstance
which, besides interfering with the country mer-
chants business, has interrupted collections so
that the average of the same is distinctly below
that of recent weeks. still, the falling away
noted is clearly of the nature of an interruption,
and in no wise due to decreased demands, which
explanation likewise includes the regions which
have suffered from foods through the Ohio val
ley and vicinity. . There is a little encouragement
in the smaller volume of mercantile failures. the
total of which, last week. was 2l8, a material de
crease from the average for the past two months,
although more thanin the corresponding weeks
of the past two years. Trade in grocer
les is more or less restricted, at
the present time, by bad country roads,
although our merchants are not complaining
seriously. Sugars are still ofish, while the cof-
fee market shows considerable strength. The
hide market is very tame; little doing; the
leather and hardware dealers report trade i'm
proving. The drug market. as well, is more
active. In some articles the tendencyis to lower
prices. Quinine still tends downward in price,
although not ~quotably changed. Budd & Co,
in their Produce Price Current, say Of eggs:
THE receipts have increased, and prices have
been gradually declining for the past week. We
