There is little doubt that an immense
number of persons habitually sleep on
the left side, and those who do SO can
never, 1t is said, be strictly healthy. 1t
is the most prolific cause of nightmare,
and also of the unpleasant taste in the
mouth ON arising in tho morning. All
food enters and leaves the stomach on
the right side, and hence sleeping on the
left side soon after eating involves q sort
of pumping operation which is any
thing but conducive to sound repose.
The action of the heart is also seriously
interfered with and the lungs unduly
compressed. Hence it is best to cultivate
the habit of always sleeping on the right
side, although Sandow and other strong
men are said to invariably sleep on their
backs. philadelphia Times.

M,..ourl 10000 years Hence.

According to the engineers of the by
geographic bureau, the level of the gulf
of Mexico is one foot higher than it was
in 1860, and, of course, the encroach-
ment on the surrounding coasts has been
greater or less, pending on their charac-
ter. In some places, where the marginal
lands are composed of high, rocky bluffs,
this change of level has gone on from
year to year without attracting atten-
ton. On the other hand, many low ly-
ing points (some that were once inhab-
tied by the primitive inhabitants or by
the pioneer white settlers), are entire
ly submerged The cause of this change
of level has not rs yet been ascertained,
but it is reasonably certain that 1t is the
result of either asettling of the dry land
or of a general and uniform rising or
upheaval in tho gulf bed. No man who
has given the matter moments thought
will argue that there is moro water in
tho gulf now than there was 85 years
ago. On tho contrary, there isn't tho
least doubt but that there is much less.
However this may be, IL this aqueous
encroaohment is steadily maintained,
Keolsuk will be deep water harbor and
st. Louis and the whole Of Missouri
will DO entirely submerged in less than
40, 900 years from Jan. 1, 1805.-St

The dog trotted off, and it was few

As there were no signs Of note. the

He had found the note, been to the bank
