ton without let-down afterward; stimulation without reaction.
 A stimulant, we should remem- Der. is anything that improves nu- triton or increases functional ac< tvity. The reaction, after-depres- sion or let down following stimula- tion is more or less drawback in the use of all medicinal stimulants, but coffee (and its congeners tea, cocoa, chocolate, etc.) is the notable exception, for this beverage gives the very lift needed with so little reaction that it is negligible.
 Ideally work, play, vocation or avocation that holds ones interest. gives the stimulation required to maintain health and well being. Practically, however, only a few individuals can or do enjoy such ideal living habits or circum- stances. The great majority of peo pie, especially those who do not sleep as well as they should, need the help of coffee. do not mean that coffee directly produces sleep or sleepiness on the contrary t helps one to remain awake when sleepiness is to be prevented. But the wakefulness produced by coffee or its congeners (tea, cocoa, choco- late and other beverages containing caffeine, teine. theohromine) is of limited duration two or three hours. I mean to say that the use of coffee as a beverage in the day time or the early evening rather fa- vors better sleep if one goes to bed four hours or more after the last coffee.
 In other words the peace and equaninlity that comes from a cup of well brewed coffee at dinner or after dinner in the evening favorS the relaxation and well being that tnsures good nights sleep when one hits the hay few hours later.
