Sleep in which we spend about
third of our lives, continues to be one
of the mysteries of biology, despite
the attempts of scientists to find a So
luton. DR. Raphael Dubois of Mar.
settles, after a prolonged series Of ex-
periments on alternating animals, has
come to the conclusion that sleep is
due to antitoxin or poisoning by GER
tain waste products, which accumu-
late In the brain, and are only got
rid Of by sleep. DR.. Claparede of &C.
neva thinks that sleep is an instinct
devised for the protection Of the or.
ganism. 1t was DR.. Ramon y Cajal
who formulated the neurotic theory,
according to which the neutrones or
pyramidal cells in the gray matter of
the brain sink down and cease to ex-
cite each other during sleep.
But there are objections to these
theories, and all others that have been
advanced. 1t is a matter of absolute
knowledge that in sleep there is a
certain absence Of blood in the
brain Anything that lessons the sup
ply of blood to the brain is likely to
induce sleep. For this reason, keep
ing the head cool and the feet warm
is recommended as one of the best
means of overcrowding sleeplessness.
Absence of light, noise and strong
odors help to produce the loss of con-
seriousness which is the chief charac.
teristic of true sleep.

me from sleeping and made me suf-
