SLEEP.
One of the strangest things in life is
sleep -that, recurring period of uncon-
sciousneess, so like death, yet without
which the continuance of life is impos-
sible.
\\'e think of it as a time of perfect
test for all the e,rgatrs, yet it is really
scavengers ore then hard at work re-
moving the brokeredow,r cells and the
poisonous waste products, e^cl Ili''
building up of new cells goes on apace.
The &winged nerves and muscles are
patched up and prepared so well as
ecnielintes to be even larger and bet-
ter than they were before.
This work goes on all the time, bill
ehie fly during sleep, for then there is
an arrest in the dc•nrutlion of the body
tissues, and the sec inelnrctor forces
car work to better advantage.
\Vhat causes sleep, why we should
kse consciousness, and \thy and how
we ever come hack again to conscious
existence are puzzles of which the phy-
sic'kgists and the metaphysicians have
long sought a solution, but have not
yet discovered i1.
It is believed that during healthy
sleep the brain is almost bkaellese, cr
at least that it contains less blood than
di ring the waking (tours. We know
thus sleep conies with difficulty to one
hm a state of mental excitement, when
the brain is filled with blood, and h b! d the
arteries in the temples stand out full
and pulsating. It is on this supposition
that most of uer endeavors to woo the
(:rotvsy god are based.

HOW DIVERS ARE TRAINED.

The Admiralty trains divers, and every
British warstiip carries at least one re-
presentative of the craft and frequent-
ly more'. 'there are training schools at
l4.risnier,hth, lh\oni, rt and Sheerness.
Otte of the difthcullies with elect
divers have to (untold is probut ty net
realized by a landsinan, namely, that
the greater the depth the greater is the
pressure of water on the man's Cody
and the greater time labor and exhaus-
tpon of working. The naval authorities
limit their tncn to u depth of 120 feet.
The greatest depth to which a man has
descendett is said by Siebe to have been
241 feel, and the pressure at that depth
was extraordinary, namely, 88g pound,
t: the Situate irich. One wonders how
any human being could stand it.
Twelve fathoms, or about seventy feet,
would be enough for most amen. The
curs and nese would probably begin to
bleed and the pressure on the head
we uld be very serious. A practised
tent r can, of course, descend much deep-
er without such unpleasant sensations.
1I:s dress costs more than a hundred
peuuds; it is of tanned twill and rubber
anti made in one piece, with a big open -
tee at the fleck. The helmet is of cop-
per and aci•ews on to the shoulders so
lightly that the water cannot penetrate
the joint. Air is pumped down to him
by a pipe made of canvas, and rubber
and (Juliet valves, which only open out-
wardly, are placed at convenient places
`o permit the vitiated air to escape.
'I'ite.se valves are extremely important,
r
us by them the diver can regulate his
supply of air.
In addition to this pipe the diver has
a lifeline entailing him to communicate
with his assistants above water. This
was formerly done by a series of con-
certed tugs or jerks on the line, but the
method is being superseded as a means
of communication by the telephone, the
w ares being clunveycd by the lifeline. 1
lie therefore touches the button and
talks as if lie were in the city.
Another great improvement is the use
of the electric lamp, though in some
West Indian waters a diver can see
c:early for some distance. in other
waters again the darkness is intense:
twenty or thirty feet down. The weight ;
of the (Tress is extraordinary and is
necessary to enable the diver to main-
tain his stability. Ills helmet weighs

dred weight, and hie boots. taken to -

You can put on a roof that will
last a hundred years and be the
right kind of a roof every
minute. Or you can put on s ten-year roof
that will probably leak after the first rain
hits it, and keep Iea]dngE till it is rotted away.
Either roof will cost
you about the same in
money at the start.
But the " Oshawa" -
shingled roof will be
