GREAT USEFULNESS OF SLEEP

It Ranks in Importance with Respira-
 tlon and Digestion, Say Scientists.
 Sleep as a factor in physical econom- ics ranks in importance with respiration and digestion. Those who live normal ly, who throughout all ordinary ex- agencies maintain a natural attitude to- ward life, it's strains and responsibili- ties, may expect to enjoy a full meas ure of this restorative function. How much one needs is not to be determined by dogmatic rules or precedents, nor does each one require the same amount under every condition or circumstance. There must be enough, daily and week ly, and of suitable character, to restore the balance of neutral energy reduced by whatsoever of fatigue follows upon daily activities otherwise the sensor- ium resents this deprication in one way or another. In those whose lives are full of repeated and emphatic demands upon them for concentration of atten- tion, the habit of taking short maps is found to be most refreshing and in yigorating. Many physicians, some lawyers and other professional men who peruse literary work find it sat isfactory to secure brief sleep some time during the day, often in the mid- dle of operations, when an opportunity offers,

don. It is the first time that many of the citizens have heard of these de- parted worthies This is one of the few serious efforts sEhich have been made in London by IIpndoners to remind the public of the historical associations which cluster rpund the famcls city. In the cabin of each steamer will be placed a memofial tablet, giving in brief compass the facts and dates re- lating to the usrsOn after whom the steamer is named. That also is but beginning. From that irreducible mini- mum of biographical information it may Joe possible to make every steamer an automatic professor of London let ters.''
 The neglect of the. Thames as a high way and means of pleasure is what chiefly concerns the Dondon Black and in the presence of the Prince of Wales, it sees a possibility of change. ''The nearest we can get to the royal barges which were wont to make the Thames joyous are penny steamers. But if there is no hope of ,reviving the aris- tocratic glOries of the river, the Prince of Wales voyage to Greenwich was the inauguration of a laudable attempt on the part of the county council to bring the waterway within reach of the people. How shamefully 1t has been neglected is recognized by all. From time to time spasmodic enter prises have been set on foot, but they have not been persisted in; and as far as living memory can go the Thames has been a partially neglected benefit. The thoroughly democratic journey taken by his royal highness on steamboat and train may be the begin ming of better things. Let us hope it will at least persuade the people to educate themselves in the manifold dignity of London. Nothing is more calculated to that end than voyage down the river. It reveals wonders of wealth which most Londoners but faintly conceive. None can really know what London means to the world till he has explored the griny portions of the river, and seen the busy seafaring life of the great port.-Public Opinion.

 Travel on the Thames.

The City's Efforts to Populalfze Local
 Travel on the Thames.
 While New York is preparing to open municipal ferry, London has already inaugurated a municipal penny steam er'' service on the River Thames This boon for the people of London has been won after long and arduous conflict by the County Council" says the London Review of Reviews. a"The silent tideway of the Thames will be restored to it's ancient uses as the great highway of London. It is almost inconceivable to the intelligent foreign CT that the citizens of the greatest city of the world should for years have been practically deprived of the use of their river for purposes of passenger traf- fic, owing to the arbitrary whim and sNh-interested prejudice of a handful of Tory Posers. The new passenger service will carry workingmen the whole length of the course for penny if they travel before o'clock in the morning. The regular rate after that hour is a penny up to three miles, two- pence up to five, threepence up to eight, fourpence up to eleven and five pence over eleven. Return tickets are issued at twopence, threepence, five pence, sixpence and eightpence. It will be possible, therefore, to travel over twenty-two miles for eightpence.
 By happy inspiration the steam CTS are christened in the names of per- sonages notable in the history of Lon-

WARLIKE DOY.ER.

The work of developing the British port of Dover into a first class naval base and fortress, to rank with Gib- raltar or Singapore, is proceeding apace.. The great southern breakwater of the Admiralty harbor, 1,4O0 yards long, begun less than year ago, is to be completed in eighteen months. To give an idea of the gigantic nature of this work, it may be stated that the solid masonry is constructed in 45 feet of water at low tide, is 70 feet thick at the base, and about 100 feet high. In eighteen months the harbor will be completely protected from the sea, and will afford fleets lying in it complete immunity from torpedo attack, being, with the exception of Portland, the only harbor in the United Kingdom which offers these advantages. It is understood that ascheme for construct ing 8 dock for submarines will appear in the forthcoming Parliamentary es- inmates. and that floating dry docks will be stationed at Dover. although it is proposed that these should. if nec- essary, be lowed in war time to any base the fleet may be actually working from. There are two lines of railroads already connected with the harbor, and at the eastern arm there will be abun- dant facilities for coaling in connec- ton with a very extensive yard. which has been reclaimed from the sea un- der the cliffs. In addition the War Office has acquired sites for two more forts. having twelve-inch guns, which, it is hoped. will make Dover practical ly impregnable. The cliff fortifica- tions are very extensive.
 When England gets all ready she will be hard to conquer, and perhaps we shall be proud of being related to and friendly with her.

When to sleep is again 8 matter of opinion. Early rising is by common consent a salutary custom, especially when the day comes early not oth- erwise. It is agreed that more sleep is required in winter than in summer. The best sleep is had during the hours of darkness. The mind is dearest in the early morning, and those who can utilize this period for intellectual work are capable of turning out the best. The sleeping room should be cool, abundant air being always admitted. This should not be interpreted to mean that the room may safely remain in-

tensely cold. Tn the modern treatment of tuberculosis fresh air is recognized to be imperatively needed all day and all night. Artificial heat can and should be supplied along with the fresh air till the temperature of the room be at or near 50 or 55 degrees Fahrenheit for some even 60 degrees Fahrenheit. Above this no one in health is likely to sleep with perfect comfort. Babies and inyaIids need heat of from 60 degrees Fahrenheit to 70 degrees Fah- renheft, even more at. times, yet all require fresh air or fullest ventilation. Popular Science Monthly.

THE IDE4L WIFE.

Poor, muddled man! No wonder woman despises and contemns him. A Methodist minister Of Chicago has just been telling wives how to perform, and his directions are well worth the atten- ton of-married men. He started out by saying that rosebuds worn in the
 hair should always be a part of the necessary equipment of an ideal wife. Other thing the minister said were: The ideal wife is always truthful, al- ways looks her best, never scolds and makes it her constant study to please him. An ideal wife never attempts to force or coerce her husband, but she realizes that she was created to be sub ject to him. To be a wife at all is a great honor, but to be an ideal wife is | position and honor that angels might covet. When we speak of wife we assume that she has those virtues and qualities essential to wifehood before she can enter into the realm of an ideal. That is, she is a woman before she is a wife. An ideal wife must be absolutely truthful to her husband. Most people will be untruthful by word or act under some circumstances, but it is unpardonable for a wife to tell a lie to iler husband.
 We'll, we'll! Guess further comment on this would be super1uous.

THE HEW CIn1L SERVICE RULE.

President Roosevelt has made an im- portant change in the civil service rules. The new rule gives to each cao- inet officer the power of summary re- moval, without hearing, in all cases w.iere the head of the department has personal knowledge that a rivil service employe has been guilty of misconduct or is inefficient in the performance ot his duties. Heretofore charges had to be made and the accused person had an opportunity to answer the charges. Under the new rule simple statement from the head of a department to the civil service commission that he has acted upon personal knowledge will be conclusive.
 Probably this is all right, although those who happen to get discharged wont think 50. The Baltimore Sun points out that it is not impossible that this authority might be abused by cab inet officers for partisan reasons. The rule which Mir. Roosevelt has set aside provided that no employe should be re- moved until he had been informed of the nature of the charges preferred against him, and had been given an opportunity to defend, himself. This, the Sun thinks, was just and proper regulation in service in which men of both political parties are employed. It prevented any removals except for suf- ticient cause, and afforded ample pro- tection to the employe who faithfully discharged his duties.
 Perhaps government employees shouldn't be placed at the mercy of any individual, and yet perhaps some of them wouldn't work hard if they didn't fear some individual.

Among the victories of peace Dr. Err nest Lederle places the water filter, which he says has kept pace with big guns and powerful navies, and has done much in saving lives. In other words, filtered water has reduced the number of typhoid fever cases in large cities, until now, except in rare instances, the typhoid fever in the cities reaches it's highest point during the year when the vacation season is over and the city people return from their vacations in the country. It is the unfiltered water from wells in the country which is chiefly responsible for typhoid fever, and the next most dangerous fluid to that is milk. Dr. Lederle goes so far as to make the statement that water and milk have killed more persons than the drinking of hard liquor. He is a stanch supporter and believer in the strictest supervision over milk supplies of cities, and says that many physi- clans will now refuse to be responsible for infants under their charge unless they can be assured of a clean and Wholesome milk supply for them,

Great attention to swimming is now being given in the English army. It has been found to be an essential part
 of warfare. As one of the British gen. erals puts it: Probably one of the most useful lessons learned in South Africa during the Boer war was the great ad- vantage, if not the absolute necessity. of our soldiers being able to swim; and wherever possible a knowledge of the art of natation should be included in the curriculum of "the man who carries the gun" In actual warfare, when a wide stretch of country has to be cov- erred, it would be an immense saving of time were cavalrymen able to cross stream directly, instead of making a detour or waiting until the engineers have thrown a bridge across.

For thus violating the railroad police regu- lations he was fined $2,sSO.
