prussian Guard Long Famous.

The history Of the Prussian Guard.
cream of Germany's fighting men,
which was smashed by the headlong
attack of American troops at the Sec
ond Battle of the Marine, dates back
to the latter part Of the Seventeenth
Century, when men believed in the
divine rights of kings, and the troops
Of the guard could be depended on TO
protect the sacred body of their SOW
ereign when all other supporters fell
away.
TIE Prussian Guard was once q
company of archers, known as the
Trabant Guards. It was Transformed
into a real fighting force by Frederick
William ], Drill with him was q ruling

ton on his guard securing Europe Tor

height could enter hi1 pet regiment.
This requirement was abolished by
Frederick the Great, who cared only
for aghting ability. The stirring ex-
ample Of Napoleon's Imperial Guard

increased In size, and 1t now comprises

greater portion if not al the month
of January to convert their full
crops into sugar. Up to the present

weather added to the troubles. The
condition of the cane the hitter part
of last week was said to- be such
that any of it might still be lut down

Many of the laborers Tho had

REQUISITE HOURS OF SLEEP
AcknowIe lodged Fact That Brain Work
ers Need Less Than Those En-
gagged in Manual Labor.

Periodic sleeping is undeniably an
essential to the continuance Of life, but
sleep is required more as means OF
recuperation from physical WEAKNESS
than from mental activity, an exchange
observes. The best thinkers are the
shortest sleepers, and on the other
hand the manual laborers require the
longest periods Of sleep. The classic
example cited to prove that the think
er does not need as much sleep as the
ordinary man takes is Thomas A. Edi-
son, who during the most active years
Of his life Is said to have slept only
four hours day. 1t is not so general
" known that Herbert Spencer, the
philosopher, in his later life did not
average more than three hours Of sleep
q day.
These instances should not lead to
ill-advised efforts to emulate the ex-
treme examples. One should not at
tempt to do better thinking by keep
ing longer awake, but the effort should
be made to do better thinking, which
will result in keeping longer awake.
For II the body be not fatigued or
drugged with poison, sleep comes chief
ly from the slowing down Of the men
tai processes until consciousness
lapses. II an adult is not tired or full
Of fatigue poisons from physical labor,
or II his system is not otherwise bur-
dened with poisons from faulty diet
or overeating, it is possible In many
instances to cut down the sleeping
period from 20 to 40 per cent of that
commonly INDUCED in.
