sleep.


Sleep is the resting time of conscious
ness. The more active and energetic the
waking life OF the normal individual has
been. the deeper will be his sleep. a
man exhausted physically or mentally re-
cuperates those portions of his brain in
which are located the ceilters presiding
over the exhausted functions during the
sleeping period. In these exhausted nerve
centers the Inconsistencies is deeper than
elsewhere, in order that the rest may be
more complete
This is the best appreciated when we
remember the effect of sleep upon the
brain of a person who has suffered in
tense grief. When such a person sleeps,
grief is completely forgotten; no dreams
recall the misfortune. The Lethe of the
ancient Greeks finds its exact counter
part. Even OH awakening it is little
time before The exact nature of the mis-
fortune can be remembered. AT first
there is vague. Uneasy feeling of mental
suffering, II sensation of sorrow, n reali-
zaticn that n pail has been spread over
the life, but Is exact nature is located
only by distinct mental Health

CURIOUS BURIAL FASHIONS.
The Collins and the Methods Of the
Baule Negro Tribe.

On the Ivory Coast in West Africa, be-
tween the rivers Bandama and Mi, there
lives n curious negro tribe known as the
Baule and which is a mixture of several
races. SO curious is it that NJ Maurice
Delafosse, colonial official, has thought
1t well worthy of study, and he now mar
rates some Interesting facts about it.
The collins used by the negroes, he
says, are rectangular, and each Is fash
Toned carefully out of large block OF
acajou wood. The sides, moreover, are
ornamented with colored bas-reliefs, and
the cover Is usually wrought in most
artistic style. AS an example Of such
cover NJ Delafosse presents one which
was made in 1866 for the mummy Of a
chleftain named Mango Kuassi. On it
the chieftain is represented lying on u
leopard skin. which has been artistically
engraved, the spots therein being shown
by squares cut out OF the wood.
Above the dead man is an engraving of
an umbrella, the symbol of his high posi-
ton on earth, and beneath it box of
cartridges has been drawn. On the left
is represented the gold hiltcd saber which
he Wore on parade. and above it is m en-
craving of his favorite drinking cup.
On the right in like manner may be seen
drawings of his dagger and of his gun.
Below the corpse is a deaths head and
the figure of a woman, who is holding in
her hand sancey filed with bread. The
death's head represents that one among
the dead mans slaves who according TO
ancient custom. should have been sacri-
feed at the time of his death, but whose
life was spared ut the intercession Of NJ.
Delafosse.
Ordinary Baule negroes nre buried as
soon as they die. but those of high rank
are rarely buried for seven months. aud
some even are not buried for seven yenrs
In the latter cases tile body is duly en-
balmed and then remains in the room,
where death occurs until it is placed in
the coffin. Salt. alcohol and palm oil are
the main ingredients used in embaming,
and cotton, with which gold dust is some
times mixed serves to conceal the open
ings which the operator has made in the
body.
Frequently thin plates of gold are MISC
placed as a shield over the countenance
and all the ornaments that were worn in
life are spread over the body. SO the
dead man lies on the mat where he died,
md such is the influence OF the air and the
heat that within two months his body is
transformed into a mummy. This was
what happened to the body Of Nyango
kuassi, for it lay seven months in the
death chamber before it was taken out
to burial
