SLEEP IS sOUNDEST.
A Physician. Says IT. Is When One
Dreams. Because Dreams Con-
troll the Brain.

THE popular idea CT. impression is
that when persons dream much during
night to that extent their sleen is in
tPrfered with, remarked ,well-known,
physician to a Washington Star re-
porter, land it is frequent thing to
hear persons say that they dreamed so
much during the night that they did
not sleep or rest we'll. Now. the fact
is. dreaming is as much rest or mental,
recreation as actual sleep in some re-
spects, although it may not appear so
on first thought. 1t is hard to proves
this by actual experiment., because the
conditions are so difficult to produce
There is. q certain amount of evidence
which can, be used, however, to prove
the proposition. Time and time again
when persons have been walked up by
others they have explained as a reason
that they did not respond quicker that
they did not hear the call. 1t is as
clearly proved as anything can be that
persons who are in dreamy condition
are much harder to wake than those
who are sleeping, as they suppose,
soundly. Take n parent, for instance a
mother. when she is sleeping soundly.
as she thinks, she can hear her child
when II turns over or moves in its crib.
Now. the same parent in a dreamy con-
dition would hardly hear a knock at the
door or other loud noise. The dream SO
controls the. brain that during it's pen.
dency the sense Of hearing is blunted.''

The people of the United States do not
drink so much whisky as they did years
ago. The annual average consumption per
capita I'm 1860 was 286 gallons, and moi
withstanding the enormous increase in tho
use of whisky in manufactures. the aver
age has been reduced TO .95 of a gallon.
During the four years after the war, from
1864 to 1868, when the whisky tax was 81 a
gallon, the consumption dropped to less
than one-third Of a gallon per capita, but
with the exception of those years there has
been a steady decrease in the use of tho
beverage. until the average last year
reached low-water mark. This decrease is
attributed to an Improvement in the habits
of the people and to the increased use OF
beer, wines and other lighter liquors. The
Increased tax and the hard times also prob
ably had their influence. While the secre-
tary OF the treasury and the commissioner
of internal revenue recommend an increase
OF the tax on beer they favor decrease
in the tax on whisky means OF stmu-
lating its manufacture and increasing tho
revenues of the government. but the rec
ords show that high taxes have promoted
temperance. or, at least caused a decrease
in the consumption. The liquor men favor
a decrease in the tax on whisky and tho
brewers oppose an increase in the tax on

PRINCE AND COAL MINER.
The Latter Takes Dinner with Eng
lands Heir to the Throne.
New York World

New York World.
Many people have seen in the illustrated
papers of England and of the United States
the picture of an aged North Country miner
handing to the Prince of Wales, the
occasion of the latter's visit to the Earl
of Durham, a pickax with which the iden-
had shown his Royal Highness how to
pick coal. There is sequel to that Incl
dent which is worth recording.
When Lord Durham presented the OLD
fellow to the prince, just before Christmas,
he informed the heir apparent that the
miner had been offered $1,000 for the pick
Il should like to buy that pick, ex-
claimed the prince, shaking the old fell
lows hand. land ! only sorry that 1
cannot afford to pay bigger price than
that offered by your American friend
But would not accept anything for It,
the pick here to offer it for your acceptance
as a present, and ! should be only too
glad if your Royal Highness would conde-
All right, old friend" exclaimed the
prince. Il will accept your gift. Keep it
for the present, and will send for it when
About a fortnight later the old miner re-
ceived a letter addressed to Henry Col
Inns, esq.," saying that Gen. Sir Tighten
Probyn had been commanded by the Prince
and Princess of Wales to request his COM
pany at dinner at Sandringham. The letter
inclosed railroad tickets and directions what
train to take. At the bottom of the card,
which bore the princes crest, was post
script in the princes handwriting as fol-
lows: Please bring the pick
On arriving at the Wolverton station Col
Inns found one of the royal carriages
awaiting him, and on reaching Sandring-
ham he was welcomed in the hall by the
prince who, after presenting him to the
princess and to the other members OF the
royal party. conducted him in person to g
bedroom as is the hospitable custom OF
the heir apparent with guests who visit
Sandringham for the first time.
An hour later the old miner found him
self seated at the royal table at dinner.
the other guests being Princess Victoria of
Wales Prince and Princess Charles OF Den
mark and the Duke and Duchess of York.
In spite of the newness OF his surroundings
the sturdy old miner, who is in his seventy
NTH year, did not betray the least embar-
rassment but behaved with a simple dig
nifty modesty and absence of subserviency
that created a most favorable impression.
After dinner the party adjourned to the
room devoted by the prince to his collec-
ton of sporting guns, rifles and hunting
knives, where the pick was accorded place
OF honor.
The miner remained at Sandringham for
the night and left on the following after
noon. after the princess in person had
shown him around her model dairy, her KEN
nels and her gardens, and the prince had
taken him over the home farm. And when
he left he carried away with him beautiful
autograph portraits of his royal host and
hostess and their children.
prince could have done would have pleased
or gratified the old fellow more than being
treated by his future king as he had be-
haVed-namely, as a gentleman.
