Romnrk the fourth: Insomnia is no

crotod chomuion of everything good. Dr.

was tho fact that bo hnd NOT silent the

NIGHTS WHOM he could not sleep. Horace
Greeley TODD mo he had not had sound

dprstood I.ondop NV night better than
any other writer. because not being able
to slcop he spent that time in exploring
tho citv.
Perhaps this wakefulnoss may come to
Won Ms an opportunitv to think over the
mcrcics of the past and lay out plans for
thc future. David occupipd the hours of
wakcfulness in music. lie speaks of
songs in the night" We could hardly
recommend such a solo for most people,
for it would disturb the slumhcr Of 9th
ers. and you have no right, because you
cannot sleep yourself, to keep others
awake E-lt the cheerful endurance sug-
gestcd by that midnight music Of the
psalmist we can commend.
Wakcfulncss may be an opportunity for
prayer, opportunity for profitable rcHec-
ton. opportunity for kindling bright ex-
pcctations OF the world. where there is no
night and where slumber will have no
uses. God thinks lust as much of you

Remark the sixth: The aged insomnists
should understand that if their eyes are
