PROPOSED ARMY UNIFORMS
Board Recon- mends Shelving of the
Blue For Khaki Green Suits.

The army uniform board, which has
been in session in Washington for sew
aral months and OF which Major Gen
sral Hughes is president. has submit
led its report To the secretary OF wal
says the New York Times.
No longer can the American army be
termed the boys in blue" In future
they must be called the -'men in kha-
hi, for the famous and characteristic
blue field uniforms, If the recommen-
dations OF the board are adopted. will
be done away with except for ''occa-
Sions' dress
For a field uniform the board has
designated suit of khaki green color.
not by any means presenting beauti-
ful appearance, but considered by
army officers as most serviceable. In
the summer and for hot climates this
uniform will be of light weight and in
the winter and cold climates of heavy
material.
The long blue overcoat worn for so
many years by both officers and men
will be Shelvcd. and IL long overcoat OF
this same brownish green color will be
substituted. In the opinion of the Off
GERS who constituted the board the
new color adopted will be most difficult
for an enemy TO see on the field OF bat
tie. Its wearing qualities are also su-
periOr TO the blue uniforms.
Many changes are also recommended
for full dress uniforms. The helmet
will be abandoned, and Il cap OF the
same shape as worn by Lieutenant
General Miles will be adopted This
cap is modelled after that OF the ItaI-
ian army. The shoulder knots are to
be greatly reduced in size and made
more ornamental. The sword carried
by officers will in the future lie Il
weapon in every sense of the word i'll
stead of toy affair such as is now
used.

The Sense OF Feeling.

Some Of our most important organs
for Instance. the heart, the brain and
the lungs are, strange to say, quite
iEsensiblp to touch, thus showing that
net only are nerves necessary for the
sensation, bat also the special end or
gans. The curious fact was noticed
with the greatest establishment by
Harvey, who, while treating a patient
for an abscess that caused large
cavity in his side, found that when he
put his fingers into the cavity he could
actually take hold of the heart without
the patient being in the least aware of
what he was doing This so interested
Harvey that he brought King Charles
]. to the mans bedside that The might
himself behold and touch so extraor-
binary a thing"
III certain operations a piece of skin
is removed from the forehead to the
nose, and it is stated that the patient,
oddly enough, feels as if the new
nasal part were still in his forehead
and may have a headache in his nose.

NECESSITY OF SLUMBER.
Death by S1eepiessness a Chinese
Punishment.

Punishment.
ga person absolutely without sleep
for nine days will die" says a writer
In Ainslee's. Sufferers from insomnia
sometimes maintain that they have
gone for weeks without sleeping, but it
has been proved that they do sleep
without being aware of it. At GER
tain point sleep is inevitable, ne mat
ter what the bodily condition, the al
tentative being death. Prisoners have
slept on the rack of the inquiSition.
And the Chinese found that only the
greatest ingenuity and vigilance could
carry out sentence of death by sleep
lessness. This mode of capital punish
ment was long in favor in China and is
said to be so today, while as a form Of
torture deprivation of sleep is conSid-
cred one Of the most efficacious weap-
ons in the Chinese judicial arsenal.
In some such cases the prisoner is
kept in a cage too small to stand up or
lie down in and constantly prodded
with a sharp rod. Death by starvation,
also Chinese punitive method, is a
slower process and therefore, one
would think, more calculated to appeal
to the oriental mind if it were not
that death by sleeplessness is thought
SO much more painful. In the lat
ter case the brain is the first affect
ed Of all the organs of the body, while
in case of starvation the brain longest
retains its normal weight and charac-
tCr
"a corresponding mode Of tanning
wild elephants is said to be depriving
the animals of sleep when first caught.
In a few days they become compare
lively spiritless and harmless. The
Drain of the elephant is held to be
more highly developed than that OF
any other wild animal, but of course
as compared with human brain can
be easily fatigued by new impressions
and so made very dependent on sleep.
The wild elephant in his native jungle,
however. is said to sleep very little-a
further point for the theory of the uni
Tersal ratio Of sleep to intelligence.
IA man taken out of his habitat and
Dlaced in conditions which be never
could have imagined-if transported
ITO Mars, say-would doubtless need an
extraordinary amount CT sleep at first.
There is the almost parallel case of a
iGer4an boy. Casper H&.ser, who up
to Che age of eighteen w"3 kept in one
room where he had no intercourse with
human beings or sight of any natural
object. not even the sky. At eighteen
he WAS brought to Nuremberg and
abandoned in the street. For the first
few months of his life among men he
slept almost constantly and so soHndly
tia: t was very hard to wake him."
