what is found in boolcs. It means the en-
joyment of steely, the thorough assimilation
of whatever comes op in life throughout the

Food Before Sleep.
Many persons, though not actually sick
keop below par in strength and genets'
tone, and I nen of the opinion that fasting
during the long interval between aupper
and breakfaet, and especially the complete
emptiness of the stemitch :tering Weep, adds
greatly to the amount of emaciation, sleep-
lessness, and general weekness WO so often
meet.
Physiognomy teethes: that in the body
there is a perpetual disintegration of tisstie
sleeping or waking ; it is therefore logical
to believe t hat the supply of nourishment
should be somewhat eontinuous, especially
in those who are below par, if we would
counteract theit: emeciation and lowered

All beings except num are governed by

instinct, sucks frequently day anti night,
and if its etonmeh is empty foe etly pro:

Digestion requires no interval of rest, and
