With these probably should be classed the new theory of 'Dr. Alberto:Salmon, who maintains that sleep is induced by the internal secretion of the pituitary gland, situated near the root of the nose. Says an, editorial writer in The Medical Record (New York, September 22) in subtance;

He submits that somnolence is characteristic of tumors of the pituitary body. In sleeping sickness a bypertrophic pituitary body is found. Somnolence is also noted in infectious diseases in which there is chronic meningites and there is congestion or inflammation of the pituitary body (influenza). Certain intoxications and autointoxications experimentally induce byper secretion of the pituitary and cause somno. tency, Obese persons are often very sleepy.. Somnolence is also found in all conditions causing a congestion of the bypophysis, such as epilepsy and injuries to the bead,

On the other band, insomnia is noted in

stages of acromegaly, when the gland is partly destroyed ; and in all conditions which favour (atrophy or destruction of the pituitary body, as ́in old age, in luanition, in arteriosclerosis, in severe acute or chronic infections and intoxi- -cations (phthisis and cerebrospinal meningitis, atropin-poisoning, chronic morphin and alcohol-

To provide for the alternate lengthening and compressing of the decks they are now cut in two or more places and ■liding joints are provided.
