SLEEP SERVED GUT TO HOUSES
A Theory That Explains Why People
 Suffer From Insomnia

Recently, while lying awake in a sleep:ng car, I thought long ard earn estly cn the subject of insomnia. Every enc must have nci.iced that there are mornings wEcn every inmate Of the house announces ae the bIeakfsc. table that he O. s5c has ben unable to sleep a wink.
 l 1 have passed nighy5 in country places, where the air was perfectly pure. and not a sound could be heard, and I have tcssed s,e5D!ess-y On my led until n rning, when half 9 dozen ether people, coming down to the b1eak kfast room with red eyes, have IT s-iticl-ed that they toe: had passed a s,e:Ip.ess night Then again I have slept soundly in the roar of Broadway with a party of musical young people torturing a piano in the next ro,-.n un- til o'clock in the morning Facts sllch as these have led me to believe that sleep is ne:ther in luced nor with he'd by extraneous things. You sleep because a sufficient amount cf sleep has been served cut to the house CT the room in which you happen to be. Or you lie awake because the house or 1OO1Ad Is 1ESuIHC G4Sh lOSu " ltJ sleep.
 It was long ago discovered by an esh1riort sciera:fic man that every place has a certain fixed amount of weather served out to it aIt the beginning of the solar year. It is entitled to 50 much heat and so much cold, and it gets them. If the 'tciwn is reckless, and fond of warm weather, it uses up it's l,4z Fc- led to fall back upon it's cold wealth CT earlier than its neighbors. Its in- habitants then remark that winter is beginning unusually early, the real truth being that they have squaGdere ed Iatheir heat, and are paying the penalty CT eXtravagance.
 In all probability sleep is similarly served out tlf all residences, and it re- mains for the inmates to decide how they will use it. If man uses his saeep prCfuseiy and reckiessly, he will. of course, have to suffer in due time from insomnia. If. f-r example, I be- gin a. Ne'x Years day to sleep nine hours every night and one hour every afternoon. I shall fId at the end of a few nGnths that I have quite used up the years supply of sleep belonging to my house, and will be compelled to go sfee'ri ass for the rest cd the year un- less 1 change my residence for one where there is a p1cu,ifal supply of sleep. This theory explains why when pers-n cannot sleep in his own house he frequently finds himself per fectly well able to sleep in house at the seaside or in the mountains It is 2 mistake 50 suppose iahat change of air promotes sleep. When a person is said to benefit by change Of air 1t merely means that he has removed from house in which the years SUD- ply of sleep was exhausted to one in which there is still sleep enough for the use of the inmates. This is the true explanation of the mystery of in somnia- You cannot squander your sleep in riotOus maps, and still have enough to secure for you peaceful nigh Ss.-W. Alden in Pears-n's Maga- zine.

X PLOT BY RUSSIA
what inc Chinese niniSfer Says of
 The Situation.


 When Lord Beresford told the Amer ican people in his recent tour of this country that undoubtedly it was the intention of Russia to get control of all of China and then establish such preferential tariffs as would destroy all Amecican and English trade in the orient, he was responded to very wig orously by Count Cassini, the Russian ambassador in Washington. It was denied by this diplomat that Russia had any such intentions, and it was charged that Beresford was expressing orinicns not shared in by his own gov CIT neat, Lfsr by any other government in the world. However, this denial by CoEA CasSini was eouched ill the dip-
 he language of the old world.
 Ph my mean much or little. and %Ws fillad with weak spots which are easily penetrated. For example, tho ambassador says: ''As a matter Of fact, China holds in her own hands the authority to declare whether there shall be an open or closed door, and why should Russia be held accountable for what China may e1ect to do?" AS a matter of fact, China is rapidly be- coming so crippled and powerless be- fore the approach of Russian aggres- sion that she will soon have little au- thority in any direction, and instead of allaying suspicion this remark shows simply that Russia expects to work secretly as the power behind the throne.
 But it is to the bald statement by Count C3ssini that ni1 one besides Lord Beresfoi-d he'd such views that we particularly desire to refer, This statement sd ace5ptgt aS chall=nGe
