Food Before Slecp.

DIR. w. II. Cathell has entered n
strong protest against the old fashioned
idea that people should go to bed COM
paratively hungry. He is of opinion
that fasting during the long interval be-
tween supper and breakfast, and cspc-
cially the complete emptiness of the
stomach during sleep, adds greatly to
the amount of emaciation, slecplcssncss
and general weakness so often met with.
1t is we'll known that in the body there
is perpetual disintcgration of tissue,
sleeping or waking; it Is therefore natural
to believe that the supply of nourish-
mcnt should be somewhat continuous,
especially in those in whom the vitality
is lowered. AS bodily exercise is sus-
pended during sleep, with wear and tear
corrcspondingly diminiscd, while diges-
ton, assimilation and nutritivc activity
continues as usual, the food furnished
during this period adds more than is de.
stroyed, and increased weight and i'm
proved general vigor is the result. All
animals except man eat before sleep, and
there is no reason why man should form
an exception to the rule. DIR. Cathcll is
satisfied that were the weakly. the ema-
ciated and the slceplcss to nightly take
a light meal of SIMPLE, nutritious food
before going to bed, for prolonged
period, nine in ten of them would be
thereby raised to better standard of
health. He has found that after direct
ing bowl of bread and milk or q saucer
OF oatmeal and cream before going to
bed, for Il few months, surprising in
crease in weight, strength and general
tone has resulted. Persons who are too
stout and plethoric are recommended to
follow an opposite course. = Courier

Deserters Escupe on n Lor

Three men .of-war's men, Fred Muir
ray, Harry Russell aud William Brown,
deserted from Her Majesty's ship War
spite at Esquimalt, and succeeded, after
passing through Il terrible ordeal, in
reaching Il place from which the British
authorities cannot take them by capture.
They are now employed on farm near
Friday harbor. When the men first left
the Warspite they employed an Indian to
forty them across tho straits in canoe,
giving him $40 for the work, but the
terryman was dishonest enough to try to
take them in the direction of the main
land, in the hope of getting tho reward
of $40 that Is offered by the British nu-
thoritics for the betrayal of descrter.
Guessing the Indians intention to turn
traitor, the trio overpowercd him and
landed themselves near an Indian camp,
still on the coast of British Columbia.
Tho Indians on shore had in the mean
time told the story Of the flight to the
officers of tho Warspite. A detachment
of marines went down to the beach and
came up just in time to sec the dcserters
landing tho canoe. The descrters fed
down the heads.
Coming to heavy timber six inches
by twelve and twenty feet long they
launched it, and, sitting astride, padded
as quickly rs possible into the darkness
that then came on. The marines were
forced to abandon tho pursuit for want
of n boat of any kind. The men pad.
died all night up to their waists in water.
Once Murray fell, through sheer cxhaus-
ton, and was rescued with difficulty by
his mates. A landing on San Juan island
was made ut daybreak. When the men
partially recovered from tho effects OF
their strange voyage they got some dried
salmon Mt an Indian camp and went to
Friday harbor, where some friends oil

All the men say they are well connected
and sons of wealthy families in England.
They are out of the reach of the English
authorities, rs the crime of dcsertion is
not included in the cxtraditon treaty.
