EARLY RISING.
lt IL Not Good For Those Who Have
to Work Hard All Day.

to Work Hard All Day.
There is no adequate support for the
impression that the early morning
hours are in any way more wholesome
or healthy than later periods of the
day. Except in summer time. they are
apt to be damp. fOggy. chilly and
among the least desirable hours of
daylight. 1t is quite true that during
the summer there is a sense of eXhila-
ration about being abroad in these
early morning hours. but this eyapo-
rates with the dew and is apt to be
succeeded by corresponding depres
sion and loss of working power later
In the day. have been observing my
friends and patients for the past TWEEN
ty years in this respect and am in
clined to the opinion that not Il little OF
the depression and nervousness which
80 commonly develop in hot weather is
due to excessive exposure to li-ht.
from habits of early rising. inherted
from agricultural ancestors. not coun-
terbalanced by three to four hours
rest in darkened rooms in the middle
Of the day
Secondly. that the exhilaration eXpe-
rienced during the early morning hours
is an expensive luxury. which has to
be paid for later in the day. In fact. |
have found that. as Il general rule. to
put it very roughly. the business or
professional man who rises an hour
before 7.3O or o'clock goes to bed or
loses his working power an hour and
a half earlier in the evening. Each In
dividual has in the beginning of his
day about so much working power
stored up in his brain and muscle
cells. If he uses this up with great
rapidity in the early morning hours he
naturally exhausts his stock the soon
er in the afternoon or evening.
It is largely a matter of when a man
wishes to be at his best. If his occu-
patton is of such a character that he
can clear off the brunt of his work in
the carly morning hours. then let him
rise early. If Oh the other hand. he re
duires full vigor and readiness Of mind
and body in the latter part of the day
or at night. then he must rise later to
get it. Even in pure muscle work it IS
false economy to work too long hours.

tie was fought and the Swedes were
beaten and driven from the field. A
soldier of the Danes who had been
slightly wounded was sitting on the
ground. He was about to take drink
from a flask All at once he heard
some one say:
"Oh. sir. give me drink. for l am
dyingr'
1t was wounded Swede who spoke.
He was lying on the ground only a lit
lie way Off The Dane went to him lit
once. Ee knelt down by the side of his
fallen foe and pressed the flask to his
lips Drink" said he. for thy need is
greater than mine"
Hardly had he spoken these words
when the Swede raised himself on his
elbow. He pulled a pistol from his
pocket and shot at the man who would
have befriended him. The bullet grazed
the Danes shoulder. but did not do
him much harm.
"Ah, you rascal.' he cried. II was
going to befriend you. and you repay
me by trying to kill me. Now | will
punish you. | would have given you
all the water. but now you shall have
only half" And with that he drank
the half of it and then gave the rest tn
the Swede.
When the king Of the Danes heard
about this he sent for the soldier and
had him tell the story just as it was.
"Why did you spare the life of the

Origin of Kissing the Book,
The exact origin of kissing the
book in English courts, though
modern, is obscure. It is not, /
should say, matter of legal obliga-
ton, but seems to be merely Gus
tom dating from the middle or end
Of the eighteenth century. If a wit
ness claims to follow the law accord
ing to Coke and to take his ''cor-
poral oath" by touching the book,
who shall refuse him his right ?
The kissing" act seems akin in
deed to what the Clancy" call some
what unpleasantly saliva custom,
which in modern life exists in very
few forms, though many of the low
er classes still spit on coin for
luck -Cornhill Magazine.

Nor should the land owner who does

Dear Sir;
The best advertisement that | have
yet seen for Lewiston is your
editorial of Thursday, February
2sth, under the heading Publicity
for Lewiston.
Whenever city can reach the
position where she commands the
character of criticism you present
to the metropolis of northern Idaho.
her future is assured, in fact it made
an investor decide favorable on a
lewiston proposition.
l hope the new spirit that is now
pushing Lewiston to the front viii
encourage such editorials, as the
trouble heretofore has been that
Lewiston had reputation for con-
servatism that was to her detriment.
| know that if you will look at
the matter calmly you will come to
the conclusion that if history repeats
itself you are injuring Nezperce and
benehtting Lewiston.
Very truly yours,
