Diet has little Influence on sleep ex cept In so far as It may produce dis turbances of digestion and through these of the general balance of health. The hypnotic effects of certain foods, such as onions, lettuce, milk, etc., are chiefly Imaginary. Even the time of the last meal of the day Is of relative ly little Importance except that It Is well to let this be nt least two or three hours before retiring- But even this rule has many exceptions, as many healthy laboring men habitually fall asleep over their pipes directly after supper, and children after poking the spoon Into their little eyes nod off over the ten table, with the bread and but ter still clutched In their chubby fists. - The processes of digestion probably go ou more slowly during sleep, but they are perfectly carried out, as Is Il lustrated by the almost invariable hub It among animals of going to sleep directly after a meal. Indeed, a moderate amount of food In the stomach or Intestines seems to promote slumber. Many night workers, for Instance, sleep much better for tuk ing a light or even full supper just be fore retiring. Dr." Woods Hutchinson In American Magazine.

French Rate Is 7 Per Cent Sometimes No Interest Is Charged. With none of the timidity or hesita tion or the shamefaced aspect of our user of pawnshops does the Parisian perforin his Journey to the money lend er. Par from feeling, after the door bus closed behind him, that he is In the country of the enemy, the I'rench fniin can have bis patriotic nrdor at Its highest. I'or over the pawnshop flies the tricolor of Prance Instead id' the glided balls, and the guard nt the door Is a helmeted. white gloved republican guard. The customary, whispering ns the borrower exchanges g.jwds for cash is unknown Itorrowhig Is a business transaction with the government. It Is not out of appreciation of these conditions, of course, that 7,000 people dally visit the municipal pawnshops, but their business trip Includes n knowledge of the fact that whatever profits will' accrue to Ibf establish ments will liimlly go back to the peo ple. There Is mi haggling, snys a writer In the Philadelphia Itccord. On Jew elry fonr-lll'ths of the value of the ob ject can he secured; -on the oilier arti cles two-thirds. The Interest Is 7 per cent per annum.' SlnTuld n borrower be In the unfortunate position of having paid Interest for many years without beiug able to release the article the authorities will return It. When Inter est has not been paid the object In question goes to the auction, and then the righteousness of Paris pownbrok Ing Is decidedly In evidence, for nfter the sale has been consummated and the original loan and Interest ore de ducted , from the money secured by the sale the surplus goes to the bor rower. Should (he money remain un claimed It Is turned over to the Paris hospitals, and, curiously enough, these hospitals profit to the extent of 100, 000 francs a year. When . one has made a study of French pnwnbroklng laws It Is easily seen that the. first object served by these laws Is to protect -people' who want Immediate money advantages. Prance (and we may sny Prance, for municipal pawnbroking Is to be found in every corner of the country) cares little (lint many 'transactions nre car ried on nt it less. In one year of some 2,000,000 pa-vned articles in Paris 1,000.000 were effected at a loss, slnco no suction wn bring a complete re turn ou small o' jects. Of course this Is offset by the return from loans ou tbe other million articles, but should there be a deficiency the municipality has no hesitation in going down In Its pockets and thus has an Indirect mode of taxing the well to do to support the needy. Since no country has raised a cry agnlnst charity,' this, ns one form of It, can be passed without criticism. The fact is, money Is lost on all loaii3 under 20 francs. The capital of the pawnshops con sists of legacies, gifts and subventions of the state, department or the com mune. Occasionally, ns at Urenoble' and Montpellier, the establishments nre so well endowed that no Interest Is charged. Paris, for no unfiithomnble reasons, does the largest pawnbroking busiss on the continent, 34,000.000 francs being the average yearly pledges and 30,000,000 francs redeem ed. The total Tevenue Is 4,000.000 frnncs, the expense of mnnngement 1,500,000 francs, tho Interest on capital about 1,500,000 francs and the net prof Its 150.000 francs. A Resourceful Legislator.
