Sleep and Happiness.

DIR. Henry Smith Williams, who
wrote THE Science OF Happiness" Is
an advocate Of early rising. He made
1t almost gospel in his book. and
although he requires only about six
hours sleep himself he practices what
he breaches and rises early. While
writing THE Science of Happiness"
he cut this period an hour or even
two hours shorter for weeks at a
stretch. not burning midnight oil, but
retiring at a comparatively early hour
and rising correspondingly early. As
an example. DIR. Williams cites the
elder Pliny. ut appears that in sum-
mer he always began his studies as
soon az 1t was night: In winter gener-
ally at one In the morning, but never
later than two and often at midnight.
No man ever spent less time In bed; :;
insomuch that he would sometimes,
without retiring from his books, take
n short sleep and then pursue his
studies"
