HOW A MAN GOES TO SLEEP.
Slumber Begins at the Feet, and the
Senses Become Dormant One After
Another

"Order is heavens first law" and
the old truth is manifested even in the
process of going to sleep. When
man goes to sleep, his body does not
do SO all at once, SO to speak. Some
senses become dormant before others,
and always in the same order. AS he
becomes drowsy the eyes close, and the
sense of seeing is at rest. 1t is quickly
followed by the disappearance Of the
sense of taste. He next loses the sense
of smell, and then after short time
the tympanum becomes insensible to
sound, or rather the nerves which run
to the brain from it fail to arouse any
sense Of hearing.
The last sense to leave us is that of
touch, and in some representative peo-
pie it is hardly ever dormant. Even in
their case, however, there is no dis
eliminating power or sense Of what
touched them. This sense is also the
first to return on Weakening. Then
hearing follows suit, after the taste,
and then the eye becomes able to flash
impressions back to the brain. The
sense of smell, oddly enough, though it
is by no means the first to go, is the
last to come back.
The same gradual loss Of power is
observed in the muscles and sinews as
we'll as in the senses. Slumber begins
at the feet ana slowly spreads up the
limbs and trunk until If rnachnC tho
brain, when Inconsistencies is com
plete and the whole body is at rest.
This is why sleep is impossible when
the feet are cold. New York World

BY Balloon.

Perhaps the North Pole may be
reached in balloon. The question
has .een mooted and may be carried
out in the near future. A balloon
with a cubic contents of $4,000 feet
and capable of lifting twenty tons,
furnished with number of smaller
balloons containing reserve supply
of hydrogen, w..ld certainly seem to
give every promise of success. The
balloon would carry five men, with
baggage, number of Eskimo dogs,
several boats and large sledge. 1t is
calculated that from Spitzbergen,
where the trip will begin, the air cur
rents which blow steadily from the
south, will carry them across the
Arctic circle and directly over the
North Pole in fight of about four
days duration. Thus, instead of as
sisting to destroy human life, the mil
itary balloon may be the means of the
discovery of new continent, proving
once more that "the glory of u scien-
tific invention is it's utility to man
kind. Boston Herald.

A Defense of Dirt.

Every few years somebody raises
the question whether st. Paul's Cathe-
dral in London ought not to be cleansed
from the SCOT with which it is en-
crusted, and restored to something
like its primitive whiteness. Some
time ago an experiment of the sort
was made on one of the porticos, which
forthwith assumed notified or pie.
bald appearance. Now the matter has
come up for discussion again, and the
following interesting point is made in
a letter to the Times by well known
architect: 81 have had the opportu-
nifty, when examining some of our
London stone-faced churches, of re.
moving the coat of dirt with view of
seeing the condition of the stone un-
der it, and have found it to be perfect.
The casing of dirt appeared to be made
chiefly of road dust which had adhered
to the stone (only the outer coat of all
being gray black. All the deleterlous
chemicals must have gone out of the
lower layer, so that the dirt was a per-
feet protection. If it were all cleaned
off, the stone would be subjected to
the strong chemicals in our London
atmosphere. 1t must be remembered
that this dirt only adheres to the parts
which are not completely washed by
the rain, and that it is just these parts,
therefore, which are in most need of
protection. If at some future time
the atmosphere of London should be
as pure as the atmosphere of the coun-
try is now, it might be wise to act on
the suggestion, but until that time
comes I sincerely trust that no such
experiment will be made. Washing

DR.. PIERCE'S
Golden Medical
DISCOVERY
Cures Mney"eigff per cent. of all
cases of Consumption, i'm all its
Earlier Stages.

Although by many believed to be incura-
Bile, there is the evidence of hundreds of
living witnesses to the fact that, i'll all its
earlier stages, consumption is durable
disease. Not every case, but a la,;ge be,--
ceHtdge Of cases, and we believe, InlIy oS
per cent are cured by DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery, even after the disease
has progressed so far as to induce repeated
bleedings from the lungs, severe lingering
cough with copious expectoration (includ-
ing tubercular matter), great loss of flesh
and extreme einaciation and weakness.
Do you doubt that hundreds of such cases
reported to us as cured by Golden Med
ical Discovery were genuine cases of that
dread and fatal disease? You need not take
our word for it. They have, i'll nearly every
instance, been so pronounced by the best
and most experienced home physicians,
who have 10 interest whatever in mis-
representing them, and who were often
strongly prejudiced and advised against
trial of Golden Medical Discovery"
but who have been forced to confess that
it surpasses, i'll curative power over this
fatal malady, all other medicines with
which they are acquainted Nasty cod

mixtures, had been tried i'll nearly all these
cases and had either utterly failed to bene-
fit, or had only seemed to benefit little for

those cured of consumption, bronchitis,

MICHTGAN'S BENEFACTOR.
AN OFT REPEATED STORY or TRUE
PHILANTHROPY.


What Gins. II. Hackicy Hns Done for
Western Michigan.
(From Grand Rapids, Mich, Eueniny Press.)
The most beautiful spot In all this city Is
inseparably associated with tho name of
Hackley. Chas. II. Hackley has been in the
lumber business he-e continuously since
1856, and in that time has amassed n fortune
which gives him rating among the wealthy
men OF the nation. But with wealth there
did not come that tightening Of the purse
strings which is generally marked chnrac-
teristic of wealthy men.
1t Is no wonder then that the name of
Charles II. Hackey is known at home and
abroad. His munificence to Muskegon
alone represents an outlay of nearly half n
million. For tho past twenty years he has
been a constant sufferer from neuralgia and
rheumatism, also numbness of the lower
limbs, so much 80 that 1t has seriously inter
fered with his pleasure in life. For some
time past his friends have noticed that he
has seemed to grow young again and TO
have recovered the health which he had in
youth.
To II reporter for the News Mr.. Hackley
explained the secret OF this transformation.

in Canada. The reply l received was even
stronger than The printed testimonial, and 1t
gave me faith in the medicine.
'I began taking the pills and found them
TO be all that the professor had told me they
would be. 1t was two or three months be-

the beams which supported the floor
ing above.
The detective now recognized to tho
full extent the really serious nature
of his position; and, half dazed by
the terrible calamity which had SO
suddenly befallen him, was giving mp
all hope of escape, when for the first
time the leader of the gang-Michael
Vaughan-himself spoke.
''Leave him to me, lads, and get
you along while you may. There's
not jiffy to lose. Hark hear the
traps! They're breaking in already"
''We don't go until we've choked
the life out of the rat. Who's put
'em on our trail? Run him up sharp
and have him pleasant surprise to
his h friends" replied one of the ruff
fans.
With these words the unfortunate
officer was ierked off his feet, but at
the same moment Vaughan snatched
up formidable knife and at a single
stroke severed the rope above his,head.
'I'm with you, Mr.. Bond" eiacu.
lated Vaughan, with grim determine
ton stamped upon his white face.
"Aha! see how my mutinous clew
sink back from your bulldogi And
by all that's lucky for us both, here
come your men. Another minutes
delay and I reckon it would have gone
bit hard for us both"
Almost before he had finished
speaking the long cellar-like room be-
came for short space a scene of des.
perate struggling, the walls echoing a
chorus of savage cries and shouts.
OF all the members of the gang their
leader alone offered no resistance, but
lapsed into moody silence.
Only when the opportunity offered
did he whisper in the detectives ear
"You see, 1 haven't forgotten what
1 once promised, sir, although you
only had smasher's word for it.
Perhaps you didn't know it, but
reckon you had the life of my little
Jess in your hands that night year
ago, and maybe you'll agree now that
I've paid fair price for 1t. AS for
me-but there, we're on even terms
once more. "-London Tit-Bits.
