Topics Of the Day
SLEEP AND NERVE REST,

London Telegraph
In the days when eight hours for sleep
was nominalIy regarded ns an hour tno
long for any self-respectlng individual.
the exhaustlng character of modern life
was unknown. There was less wealth and
more contentmcnt; less competition and
moro security; fewer distractions. but
more simplicity Work was easler.
slower; and care, anxiety. apprehensIon-
In word. worry-did not feed, like the
worm / tn bud. upon the hours exempt
from toll. We are remorseless In over
taxing the delicate mechanism OF our
minds and nerves. The best walker. for
instance. does not propose TO himself TO
go regularly sixty miles day. or to sub
ject the same set Of muscles In any other
form OF physical exercise TO intense and
unremltting labor But that Is what we
do with the Immediate agent Of our
minds-the brain machine. We cannot
watch It's operations. We often assume
that It's movements arc as light and end
less as the ripples OF the universal air.
We know and nevertheless we forget
that the brain Is substantial ap-
paratus as liable TO depreciation ms the
fixed plant In workshop. Now nothing
Is more certain than this. that the po-
tential capacity OF the human brain has

the proportion OF the immensely aggra-
waited demand upon Ii.
The modern man is subject TO as much
mental and moral wear and tear In day
as his ancestors In no very remote gene

respect OF sleep We have hardly
| changed traditional habit. We keep later
| and still later hours. We catch our
| trains In the morning, as usual. There
| Is no doubt. whatever, that We burn the
| candle at both ends with unprecedented
| disregard of the laws Of psychological
economy, and that the amount Of rest we
| allow for nerve and brain is no longer

THE WEATHER PLANT.
Cleveland Plain Dealer


An Austrian man Of science, Prof
Joseph Norwack Of Vienna, recently ar
rived In New York, coming by steamer
from Cuba, and bringing with him 240o
OF the so-called weather plants" Tho
professor Is understood to have looked
for these singular plants In Yucatan and
In Mexico, but the most beautiful supply
was discovered In Cuba-the professor
having enough plants on hand to last a
century or more. As the man OF science
describes II. the weather plant, n small
shrub having red seeds. originating In
India and known TO many botanists, is SO
sensitive TO electric and magnetic In
luences that Its leaves and twigs, when
disturbed by the electric and magnetic
forces OF the atmosphere, perform pc
cullaT and abnormal movements, each
moVement-according to the professor
having n definite Specification for the
weather expert. The student Of the
weather plants peculIarities cnn predict
the weather within a radius Of forty miles
for two or three days In advance.
He can predict earthquakes nearly a
month ahead OF their arrival, and he can
determine the nature OF the Influence OF
sun spots upon the earth. The professor
promises to establish a forecastlng iusti-
tute In New York. and then we will be
able to get clearer understanding of the
value of his system

NATURES EQUILIBRIUM.
Milwaukee Wisconsin.


The success In number of instances
OF the warfare against the mosquitoes
for the prevention OF malaria and yellow
fever gives correlatiye interest to a re-
port from Rome that experiment by medi-
cal experts has demonstrated that the
spread OF consumption and contagious
diseases OF n similar character is due
TO the house fly. The report states
further that IT is now purposed to kill
the flies by inoculatIng them with dis
ease, and by encouraging their destruc-
tlon through bounty laws, and closes with
the enthusiastic assertion that II such
policy should be generally pursued the
files would be extinct within a year
The total destruction OF the house ny
would be quite as large a task as the
total destruction OF the mosquito 1t
may be possible TO limit its numbers and
activities In various ways, but it would
be impossible 10 put the fly out OF busl-
ness entirely. II would probably be un-
wise TO do SO, even were its destruction
possible. The fly is q scayenger which
has an important duty in the economy
OF nature. and In preventing the per
formance of that duty evils not DOW
forseen might be invited. II Is always
riskful to disturb the natural balance of
animal and insect life.
