FACTS CONCERNING SLEEP.
Even n Midday NapbI Is Better Than
the Noon Me0l |

Even n Midday NapbIs Better Than
the Noon Meal.
The scholar and professional man,
like the anxious housewife, is apt tc'
carry his cares to bed, and insomnia
becomes a curse. Men and women who,
are busted in getting and gaining, the
merchant, the banker, all alike, fail to
secure that self control which can
manage the mind as well asleep as
awake. ~E
Normal sleep should be purely a
physiological repose similar to the rest
Of animals, who go to- sleep with the
darkness and awake with the light.
Some one has said that sleep is like
hunger and thirst, representing a dimi-
mutton Of energy throughout the entire
body. l hardly think this can be true,
but in my Judgment sleep rather sug-
gests the diminution of the energy Of
the brain, and lie is a wise man who
takes the hint when brain fag sets in
of an evening and goes comfortably
and properly to bed.
OF course it goes without saying that
hASuL Is " tuS Willy Ill ~ SASSp.,
Men and women who are busy could
steal just a few minutes before or after
the MONDAY luncheon to catch a little
nap, and, indeed, l am nearly u r
that the monday nap is worth far
more than the monday meal, for the
digestive processes are surely hindered
during the periods of mental activity,
and it is the exceptional person in this
busy, world of ours who is not called
upon to use all his brain and Drawn to
make a living. 1t has been my habit
to advise mothers to steal a while away
from every "cumberous care" and,
ven if sleep fails to be wooed, to take
about twenty minutes every day in alb
solute peace and quietness, diverting
the mind from all anxieties and relax
ing all the muscles. A habit of this
kind is easily acquired, and we might
have fewer neurasthenic women, whose
nerves make life hideous to their fami-
lies, if a word like this, spoken from
considerable experience, were Needed

TREATY WITH COLOMBIA.
Minor Details Being Arranged in ReIa-
ton to Panama Canal.

New York, Oct. 2S.-In discussing
the report of Attorney General Knox
on the validity of the title to the Pan
m canal, William N. Cromwell of
this city, of counsel for the canal COM
pany, called attention to the fact that
the question of title does not again
come before congress. This subject
was by the Spooner law lett absolutely
to the determination of the president.
Only n matter remains to be set
tied" he said, that is the conclusion
of a treaty with Columbia. 1t will be
recalled that the Hay-Concha treaty of
May IS last was approved by these
ministers.
The form of the Spooner law, how
ever, made certain amendments to the
proposed treaty necessary in the in
SIerest of both governments, and these
few points are the object of the pend
ing discussion.
Il am advised by cable from Bogo-
ia that the instructions dispatched five
weeks ago will enable al agreement
to be speedily reached between the
two governments, and in time for the
coming session of the congress OF the
United States to pass upon the
treaty."

HISTORIC ~sTAGEcoAcH.
Preserved In b Postal Museum at
tho National Capital.

Preserved InYthe Postal Museum M
tho National Capital.
One Of the most interesting relics Of
obsolete postal service to be seen at
the museum in Washington, says the
Washington Post, is an old time Rocky
Mountain combination passenger and
mail coach, built in 1868. This was
among the first Of it's kind to carry the
mails in Montana, the route of this par-
ticular coach being from Helena to
Bozeman, the trip consuming a week.
The residents along the same section
now receive four mails daily. The
coach was donated to the museum by
S. S. Huntley, general manager of the
Yellowstone Park Transportation com
pany. 1t was captured by Indians in
1877 and recaptured after a hot pur-
suit by General Howard. Many dis.
tinguished persons have travelled in it,
among them being General Garfield, be-
fore he was president; President Ar
thur, on a visit to Montana in 1888,
and General Sherman, on a tour of in
spection in 1877. The latter was a pas
senger when the coach made the dis.
lance from Fort Ellis to Helena, 10S
miles, in eight hours, six horses being
the team, with frequent relays.
. This Anticipated affair on wheels is
the simon pure, typical stagecoach of
the Beadle dime novel. The James
brothers and the Fords may have en-
riched themselves by looting this iden-
teal relic Of the west. There are a,
front and rear boot, the former, under
the drivers seat, being the repository
of Uncle Sans mail bags, the rea boot
serving to carry baggage. Heavy
leather springs and iron tires to the
wheels half an inch thick enabled the
vehicle to Withstand the rough usage
to which it was subjected. With a ca
pacity inside for nine people, others
riding on top and beside the driver,
with slots in the sides Of the coach
through which rifles could be aimed, it
seemed evident that a knight Of the
road had to be of reckless mold to
tackle n of these once a week sex
presses"
