There is parrot in St. Louis, which
exclaims, whenever man enters the
room: You're drunk, sir, and had bet
ter go away. don't want to see you
till you're over it." People wonder how
the bird catches on, but the explanation
is simple; it doesn't know how to say
anything else, and of course in making
the remark TO every man it frequently
gets near home. One gentleman who
called thought it was the lady of the
house speaking, and rushed out of the
Parlor. She sat down TO write note of
explanation to him, when to her amaze
ment servant brought her a note from
the gentleman she was writing to, in
which he stated that he acknowledged
with humility that he had perhaps
taken too much wine with his dinner,
but had hoped on calling on her that
she would not have detected it. AS she
had done so, however, he offered his
most abject apologies and prayer for
forgiveness.

LONDON, July 13.-The election in Mid

reason best known to themselves the Tor

Gladstone. The result will not be known
until officially declared, which will be this
afternoon. The vote was heavy. 1t is es.

the voting list was polled, and there is

DIGESTION AND SLEEP.
Some May Eat Heartily Before Retiring,
But Others May Not.

But Others May Not.
1t is somewhat general opinion that
sleep suspcnds gastric activity, much as
it suspends the activity of the intellect
ual faculties. Hence the common oh
lection to meals at late hours. This
opinion is adopted by some medical
writer's Says one writer:
During sleep the medullary centers
relax their activity, digestive fluids are
not secreted. and the movements OF the
stomach and intestincs are slow, and al
most if not entirely cease"
The Boston Medical and Surgical
journal takes the opposite view. 1t
saws that the stomach and intestines
continue their functions during sleep,
though with lessened activity: that the
secretions are not suspended; that all
the essential functions continue to he
exercised; that while there is a dimin-
ishcd activity of the secrcting glands,
| vet in healthful persons these organs
are still adequate to their work, as is
| proved by the fact that many persons
| can eat full meal on going to bed,
sleep soundly and be ready for another
meal on waking.
1t is true, at the same time. that
| many persons who take late meals suffer
| from restlessness and wakefulncSS
| The result, however, may not he due
| entirely to the eating of a late supper,
but to the fact that the digestive system
| has already been overtaNed- perhaps
habitually. by eating too much or toe
rapidly. by eating food naturally diff
cult of digestion. or food that has been
made SO by bad cooking, or by eating
when harassed with care. or with over
taxed brains, that were drawing t.
themselves the nervous energy needed
| by the stomach. Persons who have
offended against nature in such ways
had better forego the supper entirely,
| and give brain. stomach and intestines
a chance to recuperate their nervous
energy.
| So, too. if one cannot get the nuscu
lar exercise so essential to vigorous di
gestioI, it might be well to take only q
simple lunch at noon. and full but moi
excessive meal at night.
AS to men whose habits in life secure
them a vigorous, normal digestion, they
need take no particular care about thei'
food. Some persons, as the above
| quoted journal says, need food tha
stands by one, such as baked bean:
and pork boiled beef asld cabbage. ant
| mince-pe. Such persons sleep we'll de
spite their hearty fare.-Iouths Com
