"Mc build no extensive conclusions rs

undoubtedly justify opinions as to the

Tho advances have been IN q few es-
adjustments in 4 few industries, in tho
main in textile manufacturing. They
still leave a margin as between tho new
wages and the wages OF two years ago.
1t is true also that they leave untouched
the reduced earnings Of the great body
OF tho people. including manufacturers
and traders "a well as wace.earnors.
This means, in other words, that there
is not the same purchasing power in
the home market that there used to DO.
In connection with this fact we must
take another, that under changed tariff

market is being supplied from foreign
workshops. There is a bot,or general

state their rising ut an hour which will
give them but six, or, at tho outside,
seven hours rest. These young men
are no doubt encouraged by tho silly ad.
agos quoted above.
When tho great majority lived in vii.
lagos, aud wcro engaged In the cultiva-
ton OF the soil, early rising may have
boon conducive to health and wealth, II
not TO wisdom, but even our early fore
fathers probably did no more than
make n virtue OF necessity. 1t ia said
TO DO natural-,hat IL phvsiological--to
rise early and enjoy the beauties OF tho
sunrise: il We ask why, we are treated
to various transcendental theories about
tho vivifying influence Of tho sun, and
we arc told to take example by tho
birds OF tho air, and tho beasts OF tho
field, or so many OF them as arc not
nocturnal in thcir habits.
But. Us n matter OF fact, saws the all.
thorlty already quoted, physiology. so
far rs II has anything to say On the sub.
ject at all. is all against the early rising
theory. Physiological experiment ap-
pear to show that n man does not work
best and fastest IN tho early morning
hours. but, OF the contrary. about mid.
day.
Tho very old often sleep much, but
they do not sleep long. A long, deep
sleep. the Sleep OF youth, requires for
its production thoroughly elastic vas.
cular system. The stitlening vessels OF
age are not 20 completely nor SO easily
controlled by the vasomcter nerves.
Hence shorter sleeps. Thus. pater-
familias. who goes to bel At II p. IN.
wants TO get up at 5 or 6 n. m., and
looks upon his healthy son. who pre-.
icrs to lie till S. as n slugsard.
This is altogether wrong. The town
dwelier OF ,hese last decades OF the
nineteenth century suffers more or less
from nervous fatigue. and Young PEG.
pie, especially. who take active exer.
else, should be encouraged 10 sleep,
rather than dissuaded from it. Nature
can generally be left TO regulate these
matters, and n healthy young person
vii! usually wake rs loon as the proper
amount Of sleep has hn"n taken.
