Scientists Study Sleep.

As the twin brother OF DEATH" which
modern scientists would not admit 1t to be.
men have been interested in sleep since the
beginning OF time. but the student Of sleep
today. in his well equipped laboratory for
this work. is describing this phenomenon
in entirely new ways and disagreeing with
other scientists over its cause and value.
Like the phenomena Of disease and death.
those OF sleep are receiving laboratory at
tention. The old books contain valuable
illustrations Of phenomena observed in the
course Of experience, but the new ones con-
tain descriptions Of chemical experiments
with the physical tissues and with the cells
Of these tissues.

cries in reference TO sleep which have been
made in the last ten years could be promuI-
gated so that he who ran might read, men
In every industry and profession and in
every day living would become enormously
more effective and happy. 1t is not only
those who cannot sleep at all that are get
ting too little rest. but thousands are not
getting half they need.
Perhaps II was Miss Jane Adams who
first used the figure which as well as any
illustrates what different people get out OF

three bales OF cotton exactly equal in quail
ity. One is made up in crude ways and
sells for a few cents a yard. Another bale
is made up with finer machinery and is sold
for from 10 TO 25 cents a yard, while the
third is made UP by the finest French ma
chInery. and sells from 10 cents up to several
dollars yard. Men get Just this difference
sleep, and the difference comes out In their
work.

How to Make Most Of Yourself;
Learn How to Rest Properly.
Rv MADD0cKS
By C. S. MADDOCKS.

4 T is an exceptionally wise man who
knows how to rest. Millions have been
lost because men were tired and for
that reason became irritable and un-
reasonable. Millions Of homes have
been wrecked because men and women did
not know how 70 rest. Millions OF lives
have been lost because men did not know
when and how to stop and rest 1t is not
work that kills. but WEAKNESS. and too
often avoidable weariness.
Nowadays men Of sense do not wait until
they are on their backs to apply curative
methods to their bodies They note the
things that create disorder and become
self-healers. Even when the disorder has
made progress they can often judge better.
II they will. as to what is the matter than
can a physician at a pop visit
No ally Of the physician has been so
powerful as that Of rest. With a man on
his back. where he must rest. the doctor
could do something with him. and It is no
less true that a man can do much for him
self under similar restrictions.
To those who would invigorate and pro-
long life, one Of the old-time doctors recon-
mended the three philanthropic PHYSICIANS,

the least Of these was DR.. Quiet
=
Sleep Most Obvious Rest. .
Sleep is our most obvious great way
of taking rest. 1t is one OF the absolutely
essential rhythms of life. More than one
third OF mans natural life is given to sleep
But to sleep is not always TO rest. A baby
knows how TO sleep; too often a man does
not know how. He has lost the power of re-
laxing. He is restless.
II we tried as often to get other kinds of
rest, and as deliberately, as We make prep
arations to sleep, there is every chance that
We might keep ourselves " whole" We make
UP our minds to go TO bed-if we are sensible
at a reasonable time. We undress and
under normal conditions we go to sleep soon
after We. are in bed. We can go to sleep
under almost any conditions II We are used
to them, while We could not go to sleep
under far better conditions because We are
are not used to them. The whole business
is habit and. like many of our other habits.
II may be more than half bad. We sleep from
habit. but unfortunately it may be one OF
our habits not TO rest while we sleep. The
tensions OF the day are not relaxed. We hold
on to the bed instead OF resigning ourselves
to its care. We are somewhat like the man
on the highway with a pack on his back
who when invited to ride did not ease him
self He thought he was helping the horse
by holding his pack.
Sleep and the other factors that interrupt
ot hinder human effort-old age, disease
1eath-have always excited the curiosity OF
man. Dr. Boris sidis in his monograph. " An
Experimental Study OF Sleep gives bibn-
ogrsphy Of this subject OF sleep OF over 20
names. A great number of the authors cited
have written special articles on the subject

c, etc.-while others have treated OF it in
works on physiology, psychology.
