The Huron Expositor, 1872-05-17, Page 6- — ' kr- 1 Sleep after Work. People have often asked me, how I Teenaged to sleep after preaching. Generally, I do not have any diffi- culty in getting to Sleep. I can sleet) after a good sermon, and even bad. ones do not keep me awake long! You must recollect that the reason why a man cannot sleep after exoitement is because his brain is gorged with blood. The blood is the stimulus which works the brain, and the brain draws to itself all the blood it can get. 1 always know whether my brain has been doing its work well, or not. If I find my hands and feet warm I,say, general- ly, that the product of my thought is not worth much ; and I begin to -think there has been a waste of brain -material. But, if ray hands and feet grow chilly, and I. haye to wrap up all over, on account of the bloode which is the working foice, being drawn away from the ex- tremities to the brain, I knOw that the thinking power has been busy— has, probably, worked to some effect. -You must deal with yourselves on this theory ; whatever will distribute the blood te every p.rt of your system will relieve the brain, and you will be able' to go to- sleep. •In the first place, do not talk- after preaching on Sunday nights. Do mot go home and have a good time over what you have seen and heard. Many: a minister uses himself up more by the after -piece than he does by the main performance. But, it is sweet to talk when you are in such firm condition ! Everybody is there pouring out compliments upon you. But they are wasting you. -You are like the cocoon of a silk worm, whiCh- they are unwinding, field in so doing they take the life out of yorii, You never get through yo'ir work.- I owe what I know of horticulture to the study I gave it Et short intetvals, .when I was preaching every day for two years, and twice on Sunday, besides doing revival and other work. I got out of the State Library of Intliana, four or five volumes of Loudon's works on Agricultural and Horticulture. I read them. There was a charm in reading even the names of the plants in the catalogues, although there was nothing very stimulating in it. It was like Webster's Dic- tionary, where the connection is broken at every word, and yet it is intensely interesting to read. In that way. I let myself down qnietly, and then I wild go to sleep. But, suppose I cannot go to sleep ? I get up from bed and walk about the room without dressing myself. That is I take an air -bath, and, if need be, I throiv up' the window, and keep ou walking, not until I am chilled, but until I am pretty near- ly chilled, The moment that any part of the human body is attacked, the vital forces rush to that part to repair any loss that may have taken -place. If you take cold, the vital forces instantly attempt to establish the equilibrium. Bring cold to bear upon your body, and the vital is hams, bacon„ spare ribs souse and. sausages, Dexter was the largest' hog ever known '011 Long Island—, weight, after /killed, 998 pounds.

Warner. . -4, • PAT, PIG, AND .°THF* RAMe A lir earth and .11 me correspondent ells a pig story (a§ a Dutchman might say), which has the 'elements af unexpectedness'' about it. Piggy got into alarge yard where he did not belong, and in trying to get out again he stuck fast under a high board fence, and began to kick and squeal. His master, a fat Irishman, ran out of the house, caught the pig by the ears, and tried to pull him through. But this only made him squeal the louder. An old ram in the yard, hearing the noise, and see- ing piggy's hind legs and tail flourish- ing in a menacing manner, accepted the challenge, lowered his head, and charged with all his might. He struck the mark fairly and squarely, and the pig shot through the hole like a pork cannon striking his mas.t ter full in the breast and knocking him flat on his back. The only wit- ness ofthe closing scene entered the yard at that moment, and was sur- priged to hear what he supposed to fence. he the pig, swearing in Irish on the other side of the • A curious question has been raised in the Imperial Parliament with re- gard to the utilization of prison labor, which has been tried in England on an extensive scale, and with the most marked success. It seems that at the Wakefield prison, the mat - making business has been carried on with so much commercial spirit and enterprise that the firms in that way of business. in neighborieg towns consider their trade unduly inter- fered with! - Accordingly the Govern- ment was expostulated with by a representative of the aggrieved ones, but Mr. Gladstone did not nem to see it. To sum up, 160 acres cost $18 • 80 acres. $9 ; 40 acres, $7. The $2 50 land is that included within limits of railway grants, -and only open to soldiers under the Home- stead Act. A soldier must settle on .his claim until the time of settle- ment added to his term of service in the army makes up five year, which is the length of settlement required from settlers who%have not served in the army or navy. --Airneridan Exchange, toe* Dr. Livingstone. The New York Herald publish a despatch on Wednesday announc ing that the commander of the ex pedition in search of Dr. Living stone has recovered that prodigal man of science from his wanderings in the wilderness and has him now in safe keeping at Zanzibar, await- ing a favorable opportunity to re- store him to' his friends: This is art announcement of the complete suCcess of the most remarkable news- paper enterprise ever projected ; so remarkable in fact that Many per- sons have looked ueon it with scepticism, scarcely believing that private enterprise could be so dar- ing when the learned societies "and even the Government of Great Britain held back from any attempt to seek oat the lost explorer in ti e perilouseegions 'of -benighted A fric. Mr. Stanley, the leader of the Herald expedition, according to the account, left Zanzibar on the est of April, 1871. Dr. Livingstone -then had been in Africa some six years, and had for long intervals been wholly lost to the knowledge of the world. His life and safety were forces instantly send' out the blood often d.eapa,ired of, and so -mysteu.- - to the -part where the cbld is, to re- store the warmth, and that relieves the system. The blood Ceases to be dammed up in the brain and in the large -vessels. But suppose I cave not sleep then 9 What is to be done ? I say to napself, " Now, you have got to go to sleep ;.,and the soarer you give up, the better it will be." So I walk into. the bath -room, and -- turn a little water, just enough to put my feet and ankles into ; and it is very rare indeed that the obstinacy of my system resists that. This -operation brings the blood down to the feet, and I can almost always get to sleep. If I cannot, I turn on a little more water and sit down in it. All this is treating yourself physiologically, medically, if you may say. so, without medicine. It is treating yourself according to correct principles for the sake of procuring sleep. If you do not sleep, first or last, your audiences will ; and, there- fore, it is necessary that you should sleep for them, that theyt may keep awake to hear what you., may have to say. More than that, whea a man has gone through the paroxysm of the week, which is Sunday it is necessary that he should, as soon as possible, 'be put into a state to go to work again. , Therefore, you sbculd eat as you would fire an engine; and sleep, re- membering that out of sleep comes the whole force of wakefulness, with the powet you 'Ave in it.—H.
