SLEEP AND DEATH.
Neither Pain Nor Consciousness at the
Instant Of Either.

InSIdub Oh 6iIHSEs
The phenomenon called sleep may be
summed up in the following PROPOSE
lions, says a writer in the Cosmopoii-
tan:
First-Sleep is temporary death of
the functions Of the sensitive system,
due to exhaustion by fatigue.
Secondly-This death is temporary
because the vital system continues to
perform its functions during sleep and
restores the sensitive organs to their
normal condition
For our purpose death may be con-
sidered under the three heads-natural
death, sudden death and death from
old age. It differs from natural sleep
only in degree.
The gradual loss Of sensibility by the
sensitive organs which precedes sleep
now takes place in the vital system,
and all the organs pass into permanent
sleep together. There can be no pain
preceding or at the moment Of such a
death, any more than there is pain pre-
ceding or at the moment Of passing
into temporary sleep.
Sudden death may be defined as
death due TO sudden injury from
without or within the body sufficient
to destroy at once all irritability Of
both the sensitive and vital systems.
1t requires no argument to prove that
person who is suddenly stricken dead
can suffer no pain. The element Of
time must be present in order to suffer
physical pain, and in the sudden death
Of a person the element of time is alb
sent
We come now to consider the third
and by far the most frequent form of
death-namely, death from disease.
AS soon as disease is established dy-
ing begins, which is but more rapid
than natural ceasing Of all sensibili-
ties, accompanied with more or less
suffering, according to the cause which
produces it. This dying and suffering,
called disease, must terminate either
in SO called death, which is insenSibil-
ity to it, or in recovery which Is re-
moval of the cause Of it But in any
event the suffering has been endured,
no matter whether the final termina-
ton is death or recovery.
No one is conscious of or can recall
the moment he passes from waking in
to natural or temporary sleep. Nor
shall we, by a supreme agony or in
any other way, be conscious of passing
into permanent sleep.
Being born and dying are the two
most important physiological events in
the life history of our bodies, and we
shall know no more about the latter
event at the time it occurs than we did
about the former

Ao4t Hundredr scares Birds.


It Is a strange but well authenticat-
ed fact that the wild creatures OF the
woods dislike the sound of that solemn
hymn "Old Hundred Muir, the nat
uralist, proved the truth Of this by
singing it in the woods Of the Sierras
to the birds and squirrels, which were
very tame from never having been
frightened by the report Of a gun or
other alarming sound. They would
come and sit near him upon the
branches Of trees and listen to any
lively tune he might sing, blinking
their bright eyes as though they liked
it. but at the first sound OF '-OM Hun
dred" they would beat a quick retreat

LONG BOW STORIES.
Legends of the Famous Archers Of the
Remote Past.

Remote Past.
Many "long bow stories may be
cited in the literature of the world,
and by far the greater part of them
had their origin in the remote past.
Vergil, in the "4Eneid." tells Of four
archers who were shooting for q prize,
the mark being a pigeon tied by cord
| to the mast of a ship. The first man
hit the mast. the second cut the cord,
and the third shot the pigeon as it
flew away The fourth archer, having
nothing left at which to shoot, drew
his bow and sent his arrow flying
toward the sky with such speed that
| the friction Of the air set the feathers
on fire, and it swept on like meteor
to disappear in the clouds.
That is a bow and arrow story that
tests the strongest powers of credulity.
The stories of Robin Hoods archery,
| illustrated by his wonderful perform
ance as Locksley in SCOTS .'Ivanhoe,"
are also a decided strain on ones
power of belief.
The famous legend of William Tell
! is believed by some to have founda-
| ton in fact. There was Dane named
Foke of whom the same story was
told. and William of Cloudesley, an
English1nan, is said to have shot an
apple from his sons head merely to
show his skill.
The majority Of bow and arrow
stories relate to the accurate aim Of
the archers but Frenchman, Blaise
de Vigenere tells one in which the
main point is the tremendous force
with which an arrow may be propelled
if the bow is strong and long enough.
According to his own account Of the
matter, he saw Barbarossa, Turk,
admiral Of a ship called the Grand
Solyman, send an arrow from his bow
clean through cannon ball. Whether
not he neglects to inform us.
Perhaps the most astounding Of all
stories about arrow shooting is that
Of the Indians who used to inhabit
Florida. It is said that a group of
them would form circle; one would
throw an ear of corn into the air;
the rest would shoot at it and shell
it of every grain before it fell to the
| ground. Sometimes the arrows would
strike the ear of corn so hard and fast
that it would remain suspended in the
air several minutes, and the cob never
fell until the last grain had been shot
away.-Chicago Record-Herald.

MONEY SYSTEMS.
The Worlds Coinage Middle and the
Range Of Units Of Value.


Range Of Units Of Value.
Twenty-six different monetary units
are used by the forty-eight principal
countries Of the world. Thus Great
Britain uses the sovereign or pound
sterling, France and six other countries
Of Europe use unit equal to the
franc, and Canada and the United
States use the dollar
In value these different units range
from IA to 494.33 cents of money Of
the United States They are represent
ed in their turn by coins the values Of
which are either multiples or fractional
parts Of the value of their own chief
units, and there are no doubt at least
200 such sufficient coins not one OF
which seems to have value equal to
that Of any commonly known unit Of
weight, as the gram, for example, or
the ounce of gold, although forty three
Of these forty-eight countries have &C.
cepted gold as their standard measure
Of values
This lack of logical relation Of coins
to any widely used unit Of weight Of
the precious metals may be due to the
fact that money systems seem to have
grown up haphazard, under diverse
conditions of life, in different parts Of
the world.
Such diversity in moneys may have
been of little moment when millions OF
people spent their lives knowing moth
ing Of the existence Of other millions
and there was little traffic. But these
differences in monetary units are Of
Importance now that international
commerce includes millions Of tons OF
products of the toll Of all lands and
billions of dollars each year to settle
its bills, for such differences put upon
trade wholly unnecessary tax. No
account is made here of the burden
laid on domestic trade by like varia-
ton In the value Of such units at home,
as OF the tael Of China, which has six
teen different values within that EN-.
pire.-Moody's Magazine.

Coughing la Lieu of Oratory.

A singular fashion which prevailed
among the preachers of CromwelIs
time was that Of coughing or hemming
in the middle Of sentence in order

attracting the attention of the listeners
could not have argued well for the
brilliance of the sermons Some au-
