FOR SLEEPLESSNESS,
A Very Useful Plan for Persons Suffering
From Insomnia.

A Very Useful Plan for Persons Suffering
From Insomnia.
DR.. Won Gellhorn has found the fol-
lowing plan very useful in inducing
sleep in persons who suffer from in
somnia: A piece of calico, about eight
cen inches wide and two and three
quarters yards long, is rolled up like a
bandage, and third of it wrung out of
cold water. The leg is then bandaged
with this, the wet portions being care
fully covered by several layers of the
dry part, as well as by layer of gutta-
percha tissue, and stocking drawn on
over the whole. This causes dilatation
of the vessels of the leg, thus diminish
ing the blood in the head and producing
sleep. 1t has been found by Winter
nitz that the temperature in the exter-
nal auditory meatus begins to fall a
quarter of an hour after the application
of the bandage, the decrease amount
ing to 0.4o c., and the normal not
being again reached for about one and
half to two hours afterward. The
author has employed this means of pro
curing sleep for couple of years, and
finds it especially useful in cases where
there is congestion of the cerebral yes
sells. Sometimes he has found it nee
essary to re-apply the bandage every
three or four hours, as it dried.-N. Y.

His daily fare was very plain; his home was
