How sIsen Is caused.


 Just how sleep is brought about is one of the unsolved problems that have been before science since the earliest times. There are three general ex- plantations of sleep. They are called the circulatory, the chemical and the histological theories. The first two have subdivisions. The histological theory is now pretty well accepted. The nervous system Is made up of thousands of nerve cells. These are connected like huge net by nerve ele- ments, little branching fibers Each nerve element is structurally interde- pendent, but functionally dependent. Neurologists tell us that the fibers be- come disconnected in sleep-that is, each nerve cell is separated from its neighbors by the elements, or connect ing fibers, becoming disconnected. The nerve cells build up themselves while separated, as they have no messages from the body to bear to the brain. AS the sleeper regains consciousness the nerve fibers unite and once more begin their duties. - St. Louis Post Dispatch.

UNION.

I
 The following obituary of Rev. MT. Roger was printed in the Congrega. tionalist: Rev. George Roger was born in Aberdeen. Scotland, April 30. 1852. He studied in Aberdeen and was city missionary there for time Later he went to London and attended Dr. Guinness college at Harley House, Bow Road. He intended to go to Africa as a missionary, but was led otherwise. He was married to Miss l Louise Dutohings in London, August "A, 1882. They went to Labrador, where he was engaged in missionary work for three years. Then they came to Bangor, Maine, that he might study in the theological seminary, where he graduated in 1888, and was said to be the best theologian among the students for years He had pastor ates at Lynn, near Portland, Me !, three years; at Lower Waterford, Vt, ], seven years; at Windham, Vt seven years; thence he came to Union, in Gu0 JAIL Ol 1OOf, WuCI0 Ho AhDOAOu three. years until his sudden. and lamented death Dec. 22, 1907 In all these places he endeared himself to his people by his thoroughly Christian life and his kind and help full spirit. He was ever the faithful pastor and was ever seeking to do good to every one. The church at l Windham, Vt., on hearing of his I death, adopted resolutions expressing their grateful recollections of him for W hat he had done for their church The people-of Union are naturally un- demonstrative, but when their beloved pastor was so suddenly taken from them atfer preaching a Christmas ser mon to them on that day, they were deeply shocked and grieved and began to realize how much he was to them. He was not showy or ostentatiout mau;' and one had to be with him fo1 some time to learn his thorough worth | and kindheartedness.

Possible Population of the Earth

By the best reckoning the earth's population for some two centuries or so has been increased at the rate of about a million year. From now on. on account of improved material condi- tions and the diminution of the slaugh- ter consequent to war, the increase bids fair to be much greater. It has recently been estimated that the earth under present conditions might be able to support number treble that of It's present population that is, about 4,500,000, 00,000-four thousand five hun dred millions. By means of scientific appliances and the reclamation of arid and swamp lands it has been calculat- ed that the figure given might be dou- bled or ever trebled, giving ten or pos, sibly fifteen thousand millions as the ultimate limit of the earth's popula. tiOn.-New York American.
 The Word "Butter."
 "Cow juice' is a slang term for but ter in many parts of the United States. But the word "butter" itself almost certainly means something very like that by derivation. It is true that EHHy COuSlueFeu Ouly uu Io po Scythian word, but 1t seems clear that 1t was really Greek-from "bous," q COW, and "turos," cheese, and meant literally "cow cheese" "Buttery," by the way, has nothing to do with but ter, in spite of appearances, just as pantry" has no connection with pans. The latter is the storing place of bread C'pans'D, and the former Is the late Latin "botaria," the place of the ''butts' or casks.-Chicago News.
