How Sleep 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
astrological theories. The first two
have subdivisions. The astrological
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 fbers, 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 fbers unite and once more
begin their duties. st. Louis Post.

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 million year. From now on.
on account of improved material condi.
lions 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 its
present population that is, about
100000, O00-four Thousand five hun
bred 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.

He Was Not Discharged.

This incident happened several years
ago: One of the big national banks in
New York was clearing for certain
other bank that was in trouble, and
every day the president Of the clearing
house bank would certify a couple of
million dollars worth Of checks for the
other. Finally thepaying tellercalled his
attention to the fact that he was taking
a mighty long chance, but the president
paidsno attention to the hint. Then the
teller informed the clearing house OF
the situation, and the president was
called to book.
aDid my paying teller tell you that?''
demanded the president.
HE did," replied the chairman Of the
clearing ahouse committee.
II shall discharge him at once" de-
clared the president, bristling up with
Indignation.
you do and well close your bank
tomorrow" calmly replied the chair
man.
Needless to say, the teller was not
discharged.-New York Globe.

Large Thumbs,

People of great strength OF charac.
ter, who are guided by the head rather
than the heart, have large thumbs .
says Irving R. Bacon. Whenever you
see a person with a strikingly large,
well developed thumb, You may be al
most certain you have before you one
who is a natural born ruler, eminently
practical and fond Of whatever is use
full. Wherefore also he Is fond OF his
tory. A large thumbed woman may
fall In love as deeply as her small
thumbed sister, but will not marry un-
less she can see a sufficient bread and
butter supply ahead. But she IS more
apt to be a real helpmate when adver-
sity mes."-New York Journal

All That Was Left.

a young married couple took late
train for Washington, intending to
spend their honeymoon in rambling
through the corridors of the capitol,
Congressional library and other public
buildings. The porter was awakening
passengers at an unusually early hour
that morning, and long before the
train reached Baltimore he had them
up. The groom told his bride that he
would leave his coat and hat and re-
tire to the smoking compartment Of
the train. He went out and met a
friend. who asked him back into an
other car in order that he might meet
a friend Of his. Soon the conductor be-
gan making his rounds and taking up
tickets. The young bride referred him
to the smoking apartment, where, she
said, her husband would be found. A
moment later the conductor returned
and Informed her politely that the
bridegroom was not to be found The
other passengers were startled by a
loud Shrek.
aMy husband! oh. my husband!"
"Don't be alarmed. madam" said the
conductor reassuringly. Nothing has
happened to your husband He is
probably in Baltimore. We dropped
two sleepers at that point" And that
was why friends of the young couple
who went to the station in Washington
to meet them saw only the bride cling
ing to an overcoat and silk hat and

AN ENTERTAINMENT FOR
SEATTLE BUSINESS MEN
A Movement by Local Chamber
in Progress.
To the Editor of The Dawn:

To the Editor of The Dawn:
AS it will be some time before
the next meeting of the Chamber
of Commerce can be held, and as
1t is quite important to get the
following statement before the
public as quickly as possible,
take the liberty of using your
columns for this purpose.
l am in receipt of letter from
the Seattle Chamber of Commerce
stating that the Seattle excursion
of business men, and their wives,
will arrive here at s p. M. on Sat
urday, September 26, and that
their train will stop here until 8
a. M. the following day.
AS it is incumbent on us not only
from the more generous standpoint
Of hospitality, but also from a bus
mess point of view, to entertain
these visitors it has been suggested
that the following plan of enter
tainment be acted upon.
That the rink be engaged, and
also the orchestra, and that a gen
eral reception and dance be given
to the visitors. The rink will hold
about 1000 people. There will
probably be about $50 visitors and
there should be at least 500 of our
own people. We propose to have
display of Kittitas fruits and
grasses ready and in place by the
Goth, SO as to give the visitors an
exhibit of what we can do.
1t IS also suggested that some of
the various ladies associations,
preferably the Municipal Society.
take charge of the refreshments,
and if Messrs. S. P. Fogarty and
A. c. Spalding will take upon
themselves the responsibility of
the decorations, we are quite sure
that the rink can be make to pre-
sent a very beautiful appearance.
Mr.. McTarnahan will lave finish
ed decorating the rink by the Goth
and will have installed new svs-
tenn of electric lights, and we be-
lieve that the Ellensburg rink can
be made to look quite as pretty as
the Dreamland rink in Seattle
which is saying a great deal.
