One Remedy for Insomnia.

new 1OTk Ledger.
Some time other away back in the
course of time, the idea got into the heads
OF the human family that 1t was injurious
to eat just before going to bed This pc
cuiar and unnatural within has caused many
a sleepless night and many a weary day.
Just how it ever obtained its general stand
ing among intelligent people might be an
interesting study for some one who likes
to delve after mysteries. AS a matter of
fact, going to bed hungry is about the most
foolish thing that sensible person can be
guilty of. To be sure. should not eat
heartily of indigestibe food. but under no
circumstances is the craving for something
to eat to be denied. Delicate persons es-
pecialy those who have little appetite and
who never eat heartily, frequently kept
awake and pass sleepless nights on account
of the demands of the stomach for some
thing to work on; The digestive processes
continue during sleep. and. indeed. are car
ried on in the best possible manner at this
time. there being other forces at work
TO draw the vitality from what is for the
moment its most important business 1t
would be well IL every family made some
provision for this need. and could keep ever
ready milk. hot or cold, or a cup of broth
or hot soup. 1t would take very little time
ana expense TO do this and the mental and
physical condition of delicate members OF
the household would be greatly improved.

WONDERFUL PIECE OF MECHANISM.

New Electric Loco" for the Belt Line
Drew with Ease What Two steam En-
eInes Gould Scarcely Got Along with.
The big electric locomotive Of the
Baltimore and Ohio railroad exceeded
the expectations of the railroad officials
aud the electrical engineers yesterday by
pulling twenty six heavily loaded freight
cars and two large steam locomotives
through the tunnel under the city OF
Baltimore Even under this tiemen-
dous strain the electric motor did not
have on it's full power.
The long train WAS pulled one aud
two fifth miles In six minutes, but better
time could have been made All the
trouble experienced last week by the
effect OF dampness on the.trolley grooves
has been remedled. The test OF the motor
WAS the most important that has yet
been made The load drawn was at least
/ 400 tons The two steam engines
which we're attached to the motor joined
their forces to pull the train on It's trip
to Philadelphia.
