Common Sense and sleep.
From the Fortnightly Review.

From the Fortnghtly Review.
Excitement, worry and anxiety,
which have their seat in the brain,
interfere with the functions of the
stomach, and in like manner anything
that unduly taxes the power of or
irritates the stomach, disorders the
circulation and nutrition Of the brain.
The sleeplessness often complained
of by equity persons is due to the
poisonous effect Of the morbid ma
teriaI upon the nervous system. Elk
cessiye smoking, too much alcohol,
tea and coffee, often resorted to by
overworked persons, are frequent
causes of sleeplessness. In all these
cases the cause is removable, while
the effect may be counteracted by
appropriate treatment. Nothing is
more mischievous, however, than to
continue the habits and to have re-
course to drugs to combat the effects.
A due amount of exercise tends to
induce normal sleep, and such exer-
else need not be Of violent aharac-
ter. a walk Of two or three miles
daily is sufficient and is, perhaps, as
much rs busy man can find time
for. A ride on horseback, the Pal
merston cure for govt, is probably
the best form of exercise for those
whose minds are constantly at work.
1t has been we'll said that man
must come out of himself when in
the saddle; he is forced to attend to
his horse and to notice the objects
he meets. Walking may be q merely
automatic process, and afford little,
if any relief to the mind, and car
riage exercise may be practically
valueless if the mind is not diverted
from what had previously occupied
it,

The prettiest among the novelties
of the present season are the num-
erous elegant summer mantles. Most
of them are black, sparkling with
beads or covered with lace, but fancy
allows the introduction Of colored
velvet or beads. The style of trim
ming frequently reminds one of the
Orienta models. They comprise
heavy twists of beads falling over the
front and sleeves. These beads are
all kinds-large, small, black or col
ored.
The bodices of dresses are cut SO
high in the neck that lace ties, silk
kerchiefs, and all that class of adj
junct for the throat is little affected
by women of fashion, but the cut of
the collar Of the gown is all-import-
ant. The dress itself must be cut
high, the collar must not start any
where near the neck bones, but exact
ly at the throat, encasing it thor
oughly, and meeting well in front,
where it is fastened by q small dia
mond brooch, or one of simpler de
sign.

Communication.

EDrToR OF The TIMEs:-After
reading the last article of Mr.. French,
l could not avoid being impressed
with the thought that in it, as well as
in his FIRST, he seems to lose sight en-.
tirely Of the fact that am acting on
the defensive, and also, of the ques-
ton that he felt it his privilege" to
answer. "P. H." did not say in
plain language, "Mr. Stalker is either
very ignorant of temperance legisla-
tion or very unfair in his state
ments;" that was not his purpose,
yet, if his language does not imply
that, it is meaningless. And as this
charge is constructively presented
against me, l am simrly surprised
that Mr.. French should so far forget
the common and very plain rules gov.
erning such matters, as to ask me
twice to furnish, in your columns,
Statements" the correctness of,
which is challenged. One of two
things must be true, If Mr.. French
did what "P. H." says he did, either
l am Ignorant, or unfair in my state
menis, and l challenged "P. H." to
show one or the other, and ifhe would
not, I challenged Mr.. French. This
is certainly plain enough. And, as
Mr.. French regarded it ga privilege"
to answer a question I proposed to
p. H., without waiting for one issue
of your paper before entering upon
the work, very naturally concluded
that he had stepped into P. HIS
shoes, hence had assumed the obl:ga-
tion resting on him to prove that my
