Bishop Lyman Says That Half Pint Dose
Is a sure Remedy For sleeplossness.
Under dale OF Raleigh, March 10. the
Rev. DIR. Theodore b. Lyman, Episcopal
Bishop OF North Carolina, has written the
following letter 10 the Raleigh Daily Neips
dHd Courier
81 think have made very valuable
discovery, and am anxious that others
should also enjoy the benefit OF Il. For
nearly two years 1 have been suffering
greatly from sleeplessness at night, and
frequently have not been able 10 sleep
more than one or two hours during the
night. | have tried n great number Of
professcd remedies, some Of which have
helped me little, but not for any length
Of time. A little more than fortnight
ago. while staying at the house Of a friend
in the country, my good hostess brought
into the parlor, quite late in the evening,
a bountiiul supply OF freshly roasted pea.
nuts. As am very fond OF them, when
they are not too much cooked, ate quite
freely OF them, and soon after retired to
bed. found the next morning that had
enjoyed the best slecpl had experienced
for over month. | attributed this ut
once 10 the peanuts and determined to
try them again the following evening. |
did 50, and | also drank a glass OF fresh
sweet milk after had finished the pea
nuts. That night / slept still better, and
now, for a fortnight, / have partaken OF
the peanuts and milk every night, and
have not only slept remarkably well, but
have also fully recovered from q slight
attack OF Indigestion, which hadftroublcd
me before. / now find that peanuts,
carefully roasted and not oyerdone, 80 rs
10 he at all burnt, are surely remedy for
slcepessness aud also for that form OF
indigestion which produces sleopless-
ncss."
''Thorc Is popular impression that pea
nuts are indigestiblc, but | have never
found them so unless they were too much
roasted or had boon roasted many days
before. When too much cooked or when
stale they certainly are indigcstible, but
when carefully roasted and fresh they pro-
mote digestion. They should be eaten
shortly before going 20 bed, and not more
than half pint should DO taken. They
should be roasted before they are shellcd,
and shcllod only rs they are eaten. A
half pint Of shcllod nuts would DO too
many. commend :his remedy with
great confidence, 10 those who are afflicted
with Insomnia, particularly II indigestion
"a in part the cause Of IT, Tho peanut Is a
very valuable article OF food when care
fully roasted and partaken Of in modera-
ton. hope none Of my readers will i'm
pgine that have started a peanut farm,
and am wishing TO create boom In that
article, but I shall be rejoiccd II what
have written should be the means OF be-
slowing on any Others the great benefit
which have derived from the simple
agency"

friends, my neighbors, the companions OF
my YOUTH What mysterious calamity
has swept over this once happy place as
with the bosom of-you here again, you
miserable hound? Get outl"
He drew his hand tremblingly across
his palhd brow and once more his voice
smote the air:
''Thoy are not herel They are gone
Great snakest OF course they are gonel
Where are We, friends OF my childhood?
o familiar faces that flied the horizon Of
hope in my maturer years aud framed the
radiant vision that my ambition bodied
forth, where the Dickens and Tom Walker
do you hang out now"
With these words he took fresh chew
OF tobacco, pulled his hat down over his
eyes, gave one farewell glance up and
down the deserted and voiceless street
turned his back on the home Of his child
hood and departed forever.

The late death of Justice Mat
thews probably makes considerable
change in the status of the Gaines
case before the Supreme court. 1t
is generally understood that this
case, which was argued in the first
week of the October term, 1887,
was assigned to Justice Matthews,
and that his long illness was the
cause of its being held up SO long.
Now that he is dead the case will
have to be reassigned to another of
the justices, who will probably take
some time longer to examine it.
