London Street Sayings.

London street sayings, like music hall songs. have generally but short life, the Chronicle of that city says. Has your mother sold her mangle?" Who shot the dog?" How are you of for soap?" survive only in old nov els. Some, however. are revived with slight alterations. The expression of dissent emphasized 12 months ago by Not in these trousers" used 30 years ago to be conveyed by the tag. Mot in these boots,y One street saying still occasionally heard dates back more than 60 years. Mrs. c. w. Earle states that at the time of the 1851 ex. hibition the excessive fatigue and weariness SO stamped on the face of everybody who wanders about huge ex. hibitions became in that year a source of amusement for the London street boy, and took the form of calling as they passed.

Sober Frenchman.

Perhaps the last thing that hasty English visitors to Paris become aware of is the Quietness. the thoroughness. and the simplicity of French family life. Behind the volatile and fiippant ways of the theaters. the cafes, and the newspapers there is hidden an ex. traordinary. amount of hard work. grave routine. and signal simplicity of living. To this family life the strang. CT is with difficulty admitted. The casual acquaintance is not made free, as in England, of such realities. We venture the opinion that the highly respectable life of French country houses is dull beyond anything con. ceived of in similar houses in Eng land. But in Paris the gay and the plodding lives to a great extent over. lap. and lead to the confusion of the visitor.-Spectator.

Only Real Cure for Insomnia 10 te Remove the Causes That Have

'The chief cause of sleeplessness, said Dr. Robert Jones, London spe- cialist on mental diseases. in an ad- dress before the international con gross of medicine, ''is mental or physi- cal pain or suffering in some form or another.
 Pain is sensation experienced by all reflective living things. It has many definitions, but is best described as an uneasiness, varying from feel ing of slight discomfort to extreme distress; and it may arise from the de engagement of any function, also from violence. pressure or undue tension in any part of the body. It has many synonyms, anxiety. grief. solicitude. mental distress, uneasiness, and, ac- cording to its quality or intensity. 1t may amount to agony, torture or tor ment
 -The treatment of sleeplessness is to break the habit, which should be done by removing the causes. and these may be classified as either phys ioal, mental or moral" further as- serted Dr. Roberts, and he then urged the necessity of sleep, declaring 1t to be more essential than food, and that where drugs were resorted to they should be taken only when prescribed by responsible physician. as all sleep inducing drugs act as heart depres- sants. The scientist attributed the in- crease in insanity among boys under fifteen and girls between fifteen and twenty that has been recorded in the last decade to insufficient sleep.
 A change of scene often benefits the victim of insomnia-a place not far distant from the home will sometimes suffice.
