SLEEP As A MEDICINE.

The cry for rest has always been
louder than the cry for food. Not
that it is more important, but it is
often harder to obtain. The best
rest comes from sound sleep. OF
two men or women, otherwise
equal, the one who sleeps the best
will be the most moral, healthy and
efficient. Sleep viii do much to cure
In ability of temper, peeYishness, and
uneasineSs. i Will restore 10 VigOr

zap and make strong weary Sody.
It will cure headache. 1t viii cure
a brc ken spirit. 1t will cure sorrow.
Indeed, We might make long list
Of nervous and other maladies that
sleep will cure. The cure of Sleep
leasnees requires clean, good Oed,
sufficient exercise to produce weari-
ness, pleasant occupation, good air
and not too warm q room, a cleAE
conscience and avoidance of stimU-
lants and narcotics. For those who
are oYerwOrked, haggard and ner-

commend the adoption Of such
