Dr. Habcock stated Monday tha* he had declined an offer to assume the superintendency of a large hos pital near Columbia, and also had deoiirieed to take charge of the building of a large pellagra hospi tal at Charlottee. It seems that a company there has offered to erect such a" hospital if Dr. Babcock will assume charge. The. former asylum superintend ent emphatically stated Monday that he would remain at Columbia until the present administration was changed. The newly opened sanitarium of Dr. Babcock and Dr. Saunders is located at, 2315 Taylor street, a bout two blocks beyond Columbia hospital, and is known as the Hen ry P. Clark place. The building is large, and well adapted for sanita rium purposes, says Dr. Babcock. Ho and Dr. Saunders will specialize In the treatment of nervous and mental diseases. Tli&nkH to Voter*.

All bis life he hu<l been bothered that way. fc\>r no reason whatever sleep would sud denly desert htiw^md when It aban doned/ Kelllngor It abandoned the rest of the family, meaning Mrs. Kelllnger and tin- bulldog. When Mr?, Kelllnger would an nounce Badly to their acquaintances that Tom had begun waking up at on^ o'clock and staying awake till six or not going to sleep at all until half past-threo it was exactly as tragic as though sho was breaking the news that he had fallen a victim to the suicide habit or had begun murdering people again after a short vacation. Those to whom she spoke always had : an uneasy feeling that they ought to ! send Mowers or something-' Kelllnger absolutely refus?*H to go to the doctor about it, He said the physician would merely ask him if he had embezzled any trust funds or had anything else on his conscience* and would appear annoyed because he hadn't. "it's just nerves," Kelllnger would say In martyred tones. "I wake up and then I begin thinking and I cant jrtop. I worry about what would hap pen if ten years from now a long, hard winter should set in and I didn't have any work, Then there is Uncle Dave, who has Just invested all his money in a gold mine, and what if he should lose it! And think dt the Bufferings Of the people over there hi the Bal kan regions during this cruel war!" "If Tom didn't have such an absurd ly tender heart!" Mrs. Kelllnger would sigh proudly. That is, she sighed proudly till the sleepless streak had continued for some time, and then she<grew peevish from lack of slumber. ; At first she would read aloud to Kelllnger or would arise and, descending to the kitchen, would concoct unholy two o'clock lunches of fried egg sand wiches to lull him to sleep. Later on she took to making remonstrances. Following these heart tp heart talks, Kelllnger gave up coffee and> cigars and once in a while managed to sleep the night through, but more often he didn't. "If you were twins, now," Mrs. Kel llnger murmured reproachfully one night at three o'clock at Kelllnger, who sat propped up sociably against the bedpost with the reading light on full blast. "I suppose I shouldn't mind being awake like this. I'd expect It. But I don't mind telling you secretly that I'm (yawn) getting aw-aw (y^iwn) fully tired of it! I'm just dead for sleep!" "Are you sleepy, dear?" Kellinger asked, in hurt tones. "What wouldn't I give to feel that way!" Whereupon Mrs. Kelllnger felt ashamed of her desire to sleep and read aloud from "The Theory of Hot Water Heating" until she toppled over, sound asleep. Kellinger really suffered. He said if it kept up much longer be would ! go crazy, he knew. All the Kelllngers' friends were intensely interested In the situation. By their advice Kel ! linger drank hot milk before retiring, drank cold milk, put a hot water ba& under his head and then an ice bag, j stood on his head and walked on his hands, breathed in' six times and out six times, crossed hie fingers and countod jumping sheep. When they were out in the even ing Mrs. Kellinger had the habit of watching her husband nervously, and If his eyelid twitched she would grab the person next to her and moan: "Tom is going to have another sleep less night!" she would Say. "He is getting the blinks! Poor man! I don't know what is going to beqpme of him! Isn't it awful! Dearie!" to the afflicted one, "alt over here where you won't get the cigar smoke ? it makes you nervous, I know!" ? All of this happened before the ar rival of Mrs. Shandle, who had known Kelllnger at the disillusionizing age of ten, and had never outgrown the habit. The first time she was present at one of these sad exhibitions she transfixed the Kelllngers with a dis gusted glance and spoke her mind. "Stuff and nonsense, Tommy Kel linger!" said she0 "I never heard of such tomfoolery! I never saw a per son put on the airs you do! Are you any better than any one else that you can't sleep as the rest of us do? You say that your life is without reproaoh, and if it is there's no excuse for youi not sleeping. The idea! Smoke that cigar and drink that cup of coffee and go home and go to bed and go to sleep! You're a perfect goose! 1 think the trouble is that your bead 4s only blaymough for one idea at a time, and youVe grown attached to thta sleepless idea and hat? to . tell it to move on. I'm ashamed of J^u! An4 your wife is an easy mark!* "I think she is horribly rude!" Mra Kellinger kept saying all the way home. "She doesn't understand yotn sensitive nature at all!" "Huh?" queried Kelllnger ? and yawned. Whereupon he went to sleei ?when his head touched the pillow and Mrs. Kellinger bad to set the bulldop loose on him in the morning to get him up at all. That ended Kellinger's Insomnia. | Exchanged.
