ssNow, look here, sonny. You didn't

done. Come right along, and after you
have had something to eat I'll help you
to load up again"
The boy consented, saying as he looked
back al the nay, ''bnt / lust know pail

almost beyond endurance. In the earlier
stages lof his illness he hoped for recov-
cry, but became resigned, and bore with
Christian patience the burden Of suffering.

Eating Before sleeping.

EsAuuS DelOTc Slcep1uKs
DR.. Woods Hutchinson writes about
s'6leep" in american Magazine. On the
subject Of eating before sleeping he says:
!. "Diet has little influence on sleep, ex-
cept in SO far as it may produce disturb
ances Of digestion and through these Of
the general balance Of health. The hyp-
motto effects of certain foods, such a.
onions, lettuce, milk, etc., are chiefly
imaginary. Even the time Of the last
meal Of the day is of relatively little i'm
portance, except that it is well to let this
be at least two or three hours before re-
firing. But even this rule has many ex-
ceptions, as many healthy laboring men
habitually fall asleep over their pipes
directly after supper, and children, after
poking the spoon into their little eyes,
nod OF o7er the tea-table with the bread
and butter still clutched in their chubby
fists.
The processes Of digestion probably 60
on more slowly during sleep, but they are
perfectly carried out, as is illustrated by
the almost invariable habit among ami
mails Of going to sleep directly after q
meal.
s'Indeed, q moderate amount of food in
the stomach or intestines seems to pro-
mote slumber. Many night workers, for
instance, sleep much better for taking q
light or even full supper just before re-
firing"

STILL SORE ABOUT
THAT CEMETERY
Japanese Determined
To Have One At

A letter that appeared to contain a
hint of threat was received by the
Board of Health at its meeting We'd
nesday from Castle & Wilmington, rep
resenting the Japanese whose request
to be allowed to open a cemetery at
Moiliili was turned down last week.
The writers expressed great surprise
and disappointment at the Boards ac-
tion, expatiated on the suitability OF
the proposed size and the excellence OF
its soil conditions, and limited broadly
that the Buddhists might open up their
cemetery in spite of the Board.
A 'humph" on the part of President
Pinkham expresses. the attitude of the
Board on the matter. According to
that" he said amy body can start a
cemetery in his back yard" On motion
of Dr.. Wayson the matter was left IN
the hands of the President.
A schedule of salaries Of Government
physicians was submitted by the pres
ident with the explanation that it was
based on services rendered, the diff
culties of travel, etc. The schedule
was adopted. Dr.. J. S. b. Pratt was

ON NAVAL MOVEMENTS

Oakland, July 4.-Secretary of the
Navy Metcalfe, who arrived here on a
private visit today, said that next Win
ter eighteen or twenty of the biggest
battleships of the American navy
would arrive at San Francisco on a
practice cruise from the Atlantic. The
present policy of the Navy department
is not to spend money abroad but to
keep the warships in home waters.
Oyster Bay, July At is officially
stated that it is not the intention of
the government to send the feet i'm
|mediately to Pacific waters. The de-
cision to do SO is the result of two
years plan of maneuvers.
There is no significance in the as
sembling of Che feet in the Pacific, the
relations of America with all other
countries never having been more
peaceful.
