A REPLY TO ME., EDISON.
BY: A PHYSICIAN,
We sleep too much, says Mr. Thomas Edis son. Three hours of sound, dreamless sleep is enough for anyone, ba adda, but has ha ob served the vast changes that have come over bur'national life within the last few years?

sleep.
Sleep is necessary for life. By ingular sleep only can health, and consequently mental vi gour, be maintained. An animal deprived of sleep dies more quickly than from hunger. One of the cruellest of Chiness punishments is to kill a man by preventing sleep, he dying insane about th: fourteenth day. All animals sleep for sone period of the twenty-four hour; bow and when they do so depends upon their natural habits, But they all have this in com. mon, that after any unusual exertion they sleep
longer,
Alternating periods of activity and repose, waste and repair, are common properties of organic matter, especially organic matter en- 'dowed with a nervous system If this alterna-
tion does not take place the animal suffers in bealth, and eventually dies. So it is with man, though he possesses the greatest power of ac commodating himself to his surroundings of any living creature. If he has not regular and sufficient sleep his health fails. -

THE PACE THAT KILLS,
One of the main differences between life to- day and existence twenty years back is that now we live by excitement; our lives åre full of it, from the highest to the lowest in the land. But it is excitement that kills. Any period of national upheaval increases the admissions into. our lunatic asylums, as during the South Afri can war, or in great financial cris. ».
Why? Because the excitement uprets the mode of life, less time is given to sleep when actually more is needed. That lunacy is alarm. ingly on the increase is due in great measure to this hustling life; the strain is too great for the nervous system of the average individual to bear.
Sleep is Nature's greatest restorative. It is a recuperative process in which the whole system
· participates, though the effect is more marked upon the brain because it exerts such a strong controlling influence over all the ut. er badily functions. Nothing wil take the place of sleep. Often we are able to solve in the morning some intricate problem which the night before was incomprehensible. Some of the most brilliant work that has ever been accomplished by the mathematician, inventor, or business man has been done at this time of day.
This age of excitement, when we give too few of the hours to rest, has brought in its wake the increased up of stimulants. The jaded nerves of a society woman, the overworked

NATURE AND NATURR'S LAWS.
‚· Tho opas and nussing homes of the West End are filled with people undergoing the "rest cure," who have been obliged to yield to the demande of Nature, and are now taking the sleep which they refused before. The essential part of the rest cure is regularity in fond and sleep. Had they in their everyday lives observed this regularity these sufferers would be in so need of such cures, They are the pro- duct of the hustling life, and were unheard of before this whirl of excitement became so general among us.
The good done by such cures is not perman. ent unless the rules laid down of regular hours of sleep are afterwards carrist out. There is nothing yet invented or discovered which will take the place of sleep, Abukad Nature has ber revenge. The average expectation of life in America the home of the "bustlers less then in Europe. A busy life, by all meant, but let it be adapted to the recognised laws of bealth, and not sical from the night the hours that ought to be devoted to sleep.
