Between Supper and Breakfast. Many persons, says a well known d .ctor though not actual ly sick, keep below par in strongth and general tone, and he is of the opinion that fasting during the long interval between supper and break f ist, and aspecially the complete emptiness of the stom ach during sleep, adds greatly to the amount ot emaciation, sleep lessness and general weakness we so often meet. It is logical to believe that the supply of nourishment should be some what continuous, especially in those who are below par, if we would counteract their emacia tion and lower degree of vitality, and as bodily exercise is suspend ed during sleep, with wear and tear correspondiugly diminished, while digestion, assimilation and nutritive activity continue as us ual the food furnished during this period adds more than is de stroyed, and increased weight and improved general vigor are the results.
