Several years ago, when that best 0
table companions, Don Piatt, was alive
we had arranged to have little dinne
together at an up town cafe. was OF
time, but Piatt was late When he die
come, he looked grave and said in thu
low and well modulated voice so memo
rable:
II am sorry, but the simple truth is
discover that am afflicted with an all
ment that will not yield to treatment
one indeed for which 6,000 years of med
zeal science have not been able TO find a
cure"
Though always on my guard for joke,
the sadly solemn face Of my friend alb
solved him this time, and with all the
sympathy could throw into my words
exclaimed:
why, my dear Piatt. don't You be-
lieve It'll What Ia this malady?r
Alas, old age! set out TO walk here.
IL was too much Of an undertaking"
The timelincss Of this reference TO the
iniirnities of age Is accentuated by sew
eral important cases in court that have
depended upon tho incurability Of snor-
| ing. This vexations affection to which
the human family ia heir has increased
IN this country with alarming rapidity
SINCE the advent Of la grippe. Its changed
character Is recognized by progressive
physicians, and the definitions found In
the dictionaries arc now admitted to DO
quite wide OF the mark. Webster init
mates clearly. by tracing the etymology
of tho word, that the nose is the impor
tant organ in producing the noise during
sleep.
This belief must have been general in
the last generation, for wo all know that
aclothespin was the remedy best thought
OF In practice. That treatment was no
more severe than cnpping and far more
direct in application. But during the |
past I'VE or six years, or since the French !
form OF influenza fastened upon us, there |
has been marked and alarming increase |
in tho number OF people addicted to
snoring. 1t Is q popularity of this NAL |
ady that the sufferers are not confined to |
those attacked. Like the delirium tire. |
mems, the cornet habit and other obnox-
ious forms OF nervous unrest, snoring
awakens IN antagonism in the human
breast that mere medicine Ii powerless
