SHOULD WE SLEEP LoNGER7
Women Need Less Repose Than Men
Beerbohm Trees Rest for First Night.

Women, | say without hesitation,
need less sleep than men, and say that
after observation Of many hundreds OF
them"
DR.. Josiah 0ldfieId, the well.know spe.
cialist, cannot account for the fact, but
yesterday he told Daily Mail repre-
sentative that, whether they are OF the
working classes or OF higher station in
life, women need, and their nature Is
satisfied with, less sleep than their hus-
bands or other male relatives demand.
Meantime man differs as to what be
needs. The following are experiences on
advice as to the duration Of sleep sent 10
the Daily Mail by distinguished men:
| The Bishop Of Ripon: When young,
take as much sleep as yon need; when
| old, as much as you can get.
Sir Frederick Treves: The average
amount Of sleep for myself il seven to
eight hours.
Sir George Lewis. the well known
solicitor: | think eight hours sufficient
! sleep nine hours.
Mr.. Vincent Hill, general manager Of
the South Eastern Railway: think it
| II we'll that people should sleep as long
as they can, and that II my practice
Mr.. Beerbohm Tree; | should say in
my case eight hours seep is better than
seven, and nine hours better than eight.
| take nine hours whenever / can, and
Invariably sleep for that period when on
a holiday, and as near to it as possible
at all times. Further, | consider sleep
before any effort, with the power to 20
to sleep at any time, most valuable.
have cultivated that power, and inyari-
ably recuperate by its aid before the ex-
ltausting strain Of first night or be-
fore playing a new part
Sir Edward Ward. Permanent Under
Secretary Of War: | find six aud half
hours enough. | daresay | could man
age nine OF ten hours with an occasional
wake up; but | should call that slack
| ing
DR.. Josiah Old6eld. II is certain that
every man must have certain minimum
of sleep per twenty four hours. Most
find that minimum eight hours, but an
enormous number are satisfied with FIVE
and half hours I always sleep eight
hours and regard that as, on the Whole,
the proper minimum for man. Certain.
| " five and O half hours is not enough.
Sir Robert Ball; Don't expect an as
tronomer to confess how many hours Of
the precious night he wastes by staying
in bed
The Earl of Aberdeen, Lord Lieuten-
ant Of Ireland: / find that much can
be accomplished in either direction by
training and habit But as to the say
Il ing that one cannot burn the candle AZ
both ends ! have heard the suggestion
that it is one of tile ways of making
both ends meet.
During the six months which Mr.
Charles Frohman, the theatre manager.
spent in London recently his hours of
sleep averaged not more than five. He
rose at 7.3O a. M, and rarely got to bed
before 2 a. M, sometimes later.
At the Bank of England high official
said he liked twelve hours whenever he
could get it-that is, between Saturday
and Sunday. "Other days / don't get
enough"
The principal Of a leading firm OF
stockbrokers said Members OF my
profession sleep well because we have
easy conseicnces. myself find nine to
ten hours sufficient s--London Mail.

There was sort Of COW on exhi-
bition at the circus Monday, who also
took part in the parade, whose horns
were loose and she could twigglep them.
Last winter this paper said Am Shad-

horns, and there were some people who
scoffed at the idea. The COW at the

1t Didn't work.

The son of a wealthy New York
family came home intoxicated
quite frequently. His parents
tried to break HIM of his intemper-
ate habits, but without any results.
Finally a friend of the father vol
unteered his assistance. The next
time the young fellow came home
in helpless state the friend carri-
cd him to dark room provided
with Il coffin and dull illuminating
flames. Then he placed him in the
coffin and sat beside it to await his
awaking. After sleep of eight
OF nine hours the sleeper awoke,
sat up in the coffin and looked
about him. Seeing the dim figure
of the watcher, he inquired where
he was. In Il deep solemn voice
came the answer that be was now
in the lands Of the lower regions.
The young fellow immediately said:
"Wel' you've been here before me.
Can you tell me where l can get a
drink!'

crops. 1t is q matter to be great
ly regretted that the generous

The Significance of Burton's Fall.

The scalp of a second United
States Senator is hanging from the
Administrations belt. Those who
find fault because evil doers in high
places are not prosecuted crimin-
ally should not forget tho convic-
tions of these influential officials.
The late Senator Mitchell of Ore
gon was prosecuted by Francis j.
Honey, the fearless Special Assist
an: of the Attorney General, who
has charge of the land fraud cases.
Mitchell was found guilty, but
he died before his appeals were
heard by the United States Su-
preme Court.
Under the same statute, which
prohibits a Senator or Representa-
tive from practising before the
Executive Departments for money
selling influence is what it
amounts to the then Senator
Burton of Kansas was convicted in
Federal Circuit Court. Subse-
quently, the United States Supreme
Court reversed the decision of the
lower court.
Charles L. Robb, Assistant
Acknowledgement, whose work as
legal adviser of the Postmaster
General brought him deserved
fame, then took charge of the Bur-
ton case. He drew new indict-
ment. He went to St. Louis and
conducted Burton's second trial,
securing a conviction Of the Kan
sas Senator. Finally, Mr.. Robb,
with seven able lawers arraycd
against him, argued the appeal be-
fore the highest court in the land.
The United States Supreme Court
decided that the conviction of Bur
ton must stand. For the first time
in history the conviction of Il
United States Senator has been
sustained by this court. Under
threat of expulsion Burton resign
ed on his last day of grace. He
himself is dead, but his case will
always remain landmark in
American politics. If his fate
prove sufficient warning he will
stand alone; if Il procession of Sen
ators wenl its way to Jail he Can
never be deprived of his place at
its head.-Collier's.

time since the interstate commerce
law was passed. The President is
now credited with an ambition to
send a railroad president or two to
Jail after the rate bill is passed, in
the belief that this will end the
practice quicker than anything
else. As for the rate bill itself.
even Senator TilIman gives the
credit to Mr.. Roosevelt. The ad
miniStration. thanks to the per
sistence of Secretary Hitchcock,
has practically destroyed the
tlourishing Western industry
of Government lands. 1t con
victed Senator Mitchell; it has
driven Burton out Of the Senate
and is doing its best to send him TO
Jail. Now it is about to bring pro
ceedings against the Standard Oil
Co., corporation which for years
has been allowed to 90 its own way
regardless of law or Justice or the
public welfare.

ed the mistakes of President Roosc,
