The Quality of Sleep.

There are good sleepers and bad
sleepers; light sleepers disturbed by
the least light or sound; heavy sleep
ers, who rest calmly through a thun-
derstorm. Some fortunate people
fall asleep almost as soon as the head
rests on the pillow every night; 9TH
ers, less fortunate, must WOO sleep
patiently.
The quality of sleep also varies.
The neurasthenic wakes tired after
a long nights sleep; the afOer-dinner
sleep of undue repletion is unre-
freshing, and sometimes Supplying.
On the other. hand, a brief nap may
dismiss at once the fatigue and Ian
guOr of busy man.
The greatest foe of sleep is per-
haps terror; suspense and anxiety
come next. Speaking generally ,-emo-
tional excitement relating to the flu
ture and to action is y greater cause
of wax kefulness than grief and regret
for the past. Grief, however, often
gives rise to protracted sleeplessness
indirectly; it affects the digestion,
and then dyspepsia interferes with
sleep. When cold feet interfere with
sleep, it is by an influence on the GER
ebral circulation. - London Practi-
toner.

ACQUITTED OF DELAY.
Employees Not Responsible For Late
Prints.

Washington, (SpeciaD The Gov
ernment Printing Office is acquitted
on the charge of undue delay in
sending final prints of bills to Con-
gress in the last end of the recent
session. An inquiry into the cause
of delay was made by the Senate
Committee on Printing, the investi-
CATION being conducted by A. II.
Howe, clerk of the committee. The
report to Senator Platt. the chair
man. was made public Wednesday
The inquiry had especial reference
to the General Deficiency Appropri-
alton Bill and the omnibus Public
Building Bill. The conclusion reach
ed was that the amount of time
consumed in handling these two
measure was mot unreasonable. but
rather positively expeditions" At
ter showing that the bills in ques-
tion were handled in an incredibly
short time, the report says: ''The
amount of work performed during
the first session of the Fifty-ninth
Congress exceeded by approximately
three times the amount of work
performed at the preceding long
session, and exceeded approximately
by 5 per cent. the amount of work
performed during all three sessions
of the Fifty-eighth Congress. The
bill force of the printing office dur
ing the last session was smaller by
seven men than during the previous
Congress. >"

Havana (By Cable) At the mo.
ment Monday when the government
was issuing its proclamation Offering
pardon to rebels who would lay
down their arms, its forces were
dealing the most telling blow that
has yet been struck against inSur-
gents in the field. For several days
it has been stated that General Guz-
mans force of insurgents, which was
variously estimated at from 200 up
wards, contemplated an attack on
Cienfuegos. Colonel Vale, with a
detachment of rural guards and vol
unteers, was dispatched to Cienfue-
gOs for the purpose of engaging Guz-
man and breaking up the band.
The encounter of the two forces
resulted in the worst disaster which
the insurgents have sustained up to
this time. They lost II men killed
and many wounded, while the loss
to the government force was one man
killed. The government is without
further particulars of the fight

which must be cOuntersigned by some

Secretary MontalvO stated that the
offer of clemency was issued by the
direct order of President Palma and
also gazetted officially The Secre-
tary added that the document was
in reality an order of the Secretary
of the Interior, issued by direction
of the President to General Rodri-
gueZ, commander of the rural guards.
The foreign element, including
many Americans, criticise the offer of
the amnesty as a weak and disap-
pointing action, showing a desire for
peace at any price and a willingness
to sacrifice the possibility of future
security to present eXpediency.

sia, the hairs Of the coat all turn the
wrong way.
In all his operations, DR.. Holiday has
his restoratives ready in case there
should be any sign of failure Of respir-
alton, or of the heart The best medi-
cines for bringing about revival of ami
mails in danger from death by anesthe-
sia are strong ammonia vapor, amyl
nitrate. hydrocyanic acid and strych-
nine.
Among the most interesting opera
tions performed by DR.. Holiday are
those by which he supplies cats and
dogs with artificial limbs, and sets their
dislocated tails. He has been so sue
cessful In amputating the legs of ami
mails and supplying them with new
ones that before long wooden-legged
dog will cease to be a novelty, while
a glass-eyed cat will be matter OF
course.
Many pet dogs are today going about
in the sphere of the doctors Influence
whose animal companions evidently do
not suspect that they possess artificial
limbs. A few years ago, when dog
lost its fore or hind legs. the natural
course was to put 1t out of existence
with the least possible pain. revo-
luton has taken place in this treatment.
however, since DR.. HOLIDAY came upon
the scene. He has manufactured legs
suitable to every kind OF dog and cat.
With regard to cats, 1t has been found
that they do not take" so well to arti-
fetal limbs as do dogs.
ODD EFFECTS ON ANIMALS.
DIR. Holiday records some very re-
markable operations and instances sew
eral cases where dogs with artificial
limbs seem to get on as well with the
of flesh and blood. He records one case
of a valuable whippet hound which, by
an accident, lost both Its front legs
Its owners were at first In despair as
to the future of the animal, but DIR.
Holiday constructed for 1t three sets
OF artificial legs. with which it man
aged to get on famously, 1t acquired
the habit OF hopping about on its hind
legs after the manner of a kangaroo,
and lived for many years under these
peculiar conditions.
Fox terriers, spaniels. bulldogs and
deerhounds have become patients OF the
doctor for various forms OF artificial
limbs and the dogs soon learn 20 utilize
these substitutes to advantage. Every
leg manufactured is made with the ut
most accuracy. and Just fits each dog
for whom 1t Is intended. Some false
legs consist of plain leather sockets. while
others are of silver. rubber. chamois and
vulcanite. or combination of all of them,
1T is astonishing says DR.. HOLIDAY,
ito see how soon nm animal can recon
ellie itself to the loss OF limb, and
how soon 1t learns to walk about
Among the dogs supplied with false
limbs and other artificial portions of
their anatomy are fox terriers. sheep
dogs, poodles. toy spaniels. Schipperkes,
Gifron Bruxellois and others. Most
dogs. if they survive the original acci-
dent or the amputating operation. seem
very much pleased to find themselves
with artificial limbs. Fox terriers take
the greatest care OF their game legs"
The San Francisco call., 1906-03-25

when the latter are off duty; and one
animal gifted with a limb of the more
expensive variety displays the greatest
anxiety should any one deprive him.
even momentarily, of the treasured
member, even when repairs Are in or
der.
DIR. HOLIDAY has been very successful
also in setting animal fractures. 1t is
not all an unusual sight, when visiting
his veterinary infrmary, to see many
dogs and even cats with their limos
done up IN plaster of paris. The sur
geon makes every effort to obtain a
natural healing of these injuries; only
resorting TO amputation and the sup
plying of artificial limbs when all other
sources have failed. The bones of most
animals will heal quickly If properly
treated; even in cases where both fore
legs or hind legs are fractured at the
same time.
A curious form of accident among
greyhounds is the dislocation of the
tail, and Professor Holiday has been
very successful in treating this form OF
Injury. He usually subjects the eaudal
appendages to an X-ray machine. locat-
ing definitely the = exact bone which
may be out of place. He is thus en-
abled to quickly reduce the dlslocation,
which is always done under an anesthe-
tic The X-ray machine is employed
very extensively for all cases OF bone
injury with the greatest success.
One Of the most interesting sections
of Professor Holidays work. aside from
supplying false eyes and limbs. is the
raising of young animals by means OF
what he calls artificial mothers"
