Hoods his girl is good enough to work

REQUISITE HOURS OF SLEEP
Acknowledged Fact That Brain Work
era Need Lets Than Those En
gaged In Manual Labor.
Periodic sleeping is undeniably 1 an
essential to the continuance of life, hut
sleep Is required more as a means of
recuperation from physical weariness
than from mental activity, an exchange
observes. The best, thinkers are the
shortest sleepers, and on the other
hand the munual laborers require the
longest periods of sleep. The classic
example cited to prove that the thlnk
*er does not need as much sleep as the
ordinary m?n takes Is Thomas A. Edi
son, who during the most active years
of his life Is said to have slept only
four hours a day. It Is not so general
ly kuoftvn that Herbert Spencer, the
philosopher, in his later life did not
average, more than three hours of sleep
a day. , ? ? ? ?
These instances should not lead to
ill-advised efforts to emulate the ex
treme examples. One should not at
tempt to do better thinking by keep
ing longer awake, hot the effort should
be made to do better thinking, which
will result in keeping longer awake.
For If the body 'be not fatigued or
drugged with poison, sleep comes chief
ly from the slowing down of the men*
tal processes until consciousness
lapses. If an adult Is not tired or full
of fatigue poisons from physical labor,
or if his system is not otherwise bur'
dened with poisons from faulty diet
or overeating, it is possible In many
instances to cut down the sleeping
period from 20 to 40 per cent of that
commonly Indulged in.
? Prussian Guard Long Famous.
The history of the Prussian Guard,
'^cream of Germany's lighting men,
which, was smashed by the headlong
attack of American troops at the Sec
ond Battle of the Jtfarne, - dates back
to the latter part of the Seventeenth
Century, when men believed in the
divine rights of kings, and the troops
of the guard could- be depended on to
protectlheStUTrd- body of iheir sov
ereign >vhen all ether supporters fell
away.
The Prussian Guard was once a
company of archers, known as the
Trabant Guards. It was transformed
Into a real lighting force by Frederick
William I. Drill with him was a ruling
passion and he lavished much atten
tion on his guard ; scouring Kurope lor
giants, as no man under six feet la
height could enter his pet reglmeut.
This requirement was abolished by
Frederick the Great, ,who cared only
for fighting ability. The stirring ex
ample of Napoleon's Imperial Guard
cuused the Prussian organization to be
lucreased in Site, and it now comprises
a complete army corps. Into Its ranks
go -the cream of each year's class of
Prussian recruits.
Salvaging a Ship Sunk 100 Years.
Work lias been started off Boca
J (Tlega (Cojlmar) by a Cuban salvogc
L eorapimy- on the wreck of a Spanish
vessel sunk more than a hundred yearr
ago. The principal objects that tht
company expects to recover are forty
two est) nous, which, aecordln* to flt?
divers who performed the preliminary
nxploratlon work, are still In a fine
state of preservation, some mounted
on the deck and the others lying close
to the wreck on the floor of I ho sea
at a' numerate depth which renders
their extraction only ordinarily dlf
! flrult.
Brand-New Fish 8tory.
I)eep-*ea fishermen report they re
"entty saw a floating island In the
gulf stream off Palm Beach, Fla. Th?
Island wax about twenty-five feet lu
diameter, and the fishermen say It
was r-oinpo?ed of marl and muck, helfl
together by tangled root* and rotted
seaweed; that there were several tree?
and mangrove sprout* growing luxurl
antly on <he island. The fl*h?fMeo
landed '-a the Island and found thou
sand* of small fish on It, which ait
birds were .greedily eating.

were nevertheless ko Interested in the
gospel tnexsugo I hud to bring them
that they crowded the house where we
lodged, tilling it full and prying off
planks from its side ho that those with
out could hear.
The first illicit we spent In the vil
lage, after an all day's palaver, we
were rttxnit to retire to our blankets
when a woman brought a baby to ua
which was almost u skeleton from lack
of uoutinhment, and whose feeble cry
was roost p'tlfu) o hear. The woman
captained thai the hqby'a mother hail
died, and that they liad no food for the
child? none of the other women belnK
In cumlitton to nurse it. At ouce Mulr
and I wet about preparlnir condeuaed
milk for the baby. We diluted It with
warrp water until we thought It of the
proper consistency, and fed It to the
atarvlog baby. The child waa almoat
too weak to take thlK nourlHhiuent, and
It required the utmost patience and
care to feed It. Mulr worked 4 with
that little papoose alinont all night,
rocking It in his anns and soothing
Its cries, and when at hist It rested In
a healthful, refrenhlng sleep, he care
fully showed the woman how to pre
paro Its food, and Insisted upon leav
ing all oft our remaining canned milk
for the baby. The natives voluntarily
told pie W'heh wi were about to leave
that If the baby lived It belonged to
?ipe and they would bring It down to
Fort W range!. I thought but little of
this promise, knowing' how easily
people forget such things; but five
years after this occurrence I was sur
prised to have some Ohllcat natives
bring a sturdy and healthy little boy*
and formally give him to me, saying
that tills was the baby whose life we
had tsaved, and he therefore belonged
to us. The child was taken Into our
mission at Wrangel, and I baptized
hlui with the name of "John," after
my friend.
WHY DO MEN WEAR HATS?:
Really, When You Come to Think of
It, They Are of Little Uee end
Not Ornamental.
Men themselves do no? know why
they weur hate. Hats aren't ornumen
tel. They do not keep off the rain. A
man's hat is a legacy of tradition, bru
talized In its descent from the age of
adornment. Straw hats are the" least
awful.
The derby, the iron lid of common
phraseology, is a tragedy, and the silk
hat is useful only to lend dignity to
men who otherwise might be undlgnl*
fled. This dignity is traditional rather
than real. Bridegrooms, undertakers
and members of congress need all the
dignity they can command. So they
keep the silk hat handy.
Spring, which brings the straw hat,
is welcomed by men, since It removes
the hideous necessity of wearing other
sorts of hots. The straw hat rouses a
dim memory in the blood of the days
of garlands. It 'may be worn with a
bright band. On the Whole, it makes
life n little easier for those who
haven't the courage to go without hats
at all.
Gives Simplified Premium.
"John, the Oysterman" (everyone
who sells bivalves here Is known as
John), has hit upon a unique scheme
to make-his-cuatomers eat oysters out
of season. To each customer who
comes Into his place he hands them an
envelope, pay size, with an enclosure.
Printed on the envelope Is the fol
lowing: "Simplified Coat Ilangcr. The
most, universally used coat hanger in
the world. Made of the finest drawn
steel wire by automatic machinery.
Easy to attach wherever and when
ever needed. Warranted for five years
with ordinary usage." And when one
opens the envelope they naturally ex
pect to fiud something new to hang a
coat thereon. They are not disappoint
ed, but It Is a surprise. Wrapped In
a small piece of paper Is "the simpli
fied coat hanger." It hi nothing more
or less than a new one-Inch wire nail.
