AVhcn I see a man who Is an easy and steady cater and a
sound and regular sleeper, 1 see a man who has no occasion to
be afraid of the world, the flesh or the devil. For, fiom those
ftlll solemn hours of the night, when human nzures lie like
recumbent statues In the darkness, and from those other hours
when busy forks nnd lingers deliver to the mouth the food
which tho palate standy rendy to welcome from these two
things, I say. proceeds nit human power, together with tho
clearness and sanity of mind which leads It to every vuluable
accomplishment.
"When we sleep," said Leigh Hunt,"ls the time when the
mysterious spirit goes to tnke Its ally rounds" "I advise
you to sleep In peace and wake In Joy," said Sir AVnlter Scott.
"Sleep," said Bulvvcr, "Is the happiest of earthly boons"
"Sleep," said a poot-phllosopher of Boston, "lingers all our
lifetime near our eyes as the night hovers nil day In the boughs
of tho fir tieo."
AA'hat these gentlemen soy Is very good and flne.and makes
sleep seem as easy a thing to come at as a ham sandwich is
to the fellow who has live cents still left In his pocket. Never
theless, If you could take the roofs off the houses nnd look
down Into them from above, passing from one to nnother,
swift as Asmodcus, jou would see millions of people tumbling
about on their beds, praying in vain to the somnolent gods
from early evening to the crack of clay.
"I couldn't sleep," writes a lady "I tossed and tumbled
with pain and excitement. This was some live years ago. I
suffered greatly from pain In the back, "tiange mental hallu
cinations, loss of appetite, scanty nnd dark lluld which
scalded In passing, bad taste In tho mouth In the mornlng.loss
of the camih Refreshments wero
served at midnight nnd all departed
wishing Miss Hattney a pleasant res
idence In her now home nnd voting Mr.
Baker a hearty welcome on his return
home.
