• enfeeble brain power and obstruct healthy
, intellectual growth. Considering its many
and divers fanotione, the brain ie
wonderfully simple in its construc-
tion. It is only a meshwork of
tubes and cells, abouadiag everywhere
'
in bloo in eve r head by the mullionsai and
4. vessels. , " The cells are
every motion, thought and volition means
the work and death of hundreda , of these
cells." Their places are immediately filled
- through the blood supply, and so great is
.tho woont of, ,work_ done -by -this -organ -it -
requires one-fifth of all the blood in the
body to keep up ite vitality. There are,
then, always going on in the brain at least
- two processes -one of decay and one of
repair. Now, the latter ie not as rapid
during waking hours ; hence the necessity
for sleep, that once in every 24 hours the
work of restoration may be effected. We go
• to bed tired and worn, but, after a night of
• sound 'deep, awake in the morning re-
• freehed and rejuvenated ; during the period
of rest, new subetance has been taken
'through the blood to the brain to replace
that w ioh has decayed; full repairs have
been w e and the balance restored.
Nature h s • provided that periods of activ-
ity and reet shall alternate. Every organ
in the body works hnder this law. Even
the heart has its periods of suspension ;
they are, of oonrse, brief, and yet this
organ is aotually in repogie six lecture out
ry-twearfoon—i-ts-reatta-k—
after every pulsation ;' the lunge rest aft
er
every breath ; the digestive organs do their
work and then fold -their hands, as it were.
And so it is with all the other organs of
the body. For the brain there is
'NO REST EXCEPT DURING SLEEP.
As one writer has aptly said " So long
as an individual is awake, there is not a
single second of hi a life during whioh his
brain is altogether inactive. Its subetance
is (consumed by every thought', by every
• action of the will, by every sound that is
heard, by every object that is eeen,by every
subetance that is touched, by every odor
that is entailed, by every painfal or,pleasur-
ableilenseddone and so Bach -instant -of our
lives witnesses she decay of some portion of
.its mass and the formation of new
'material to take its place."
The great restorer of brain power is,
therefore, profound sleep, and the school -
going ohild must have plenty of it. His
need is, in fact, vastly greater than that
telt in adult life, for not only must the
vital energy of his brain be each day re-
etored, but all the while it must be growing
.and developing. In olaildbood,o wing to the
almost oeaselees nativity, the expenditure
' of nerve foroe is very great ; there is much
more rapid and extensive decay of nerve
tissue than in later life, and longer sleep is
required for repair ; and, beside making up
toe the - wear- - and -tear, there must
• be an extra amount for •the ad-
& dition of new matter and the
building by of the • brain. Deny
a child sufficient sleep, and not only
will he be etanted in intellect, but in
physical stature as well -he will be both of
feeble mind and puny body. Moreover, it
believed that too little sleep in ohildhood
is one of the causes of insanity in after
years. The regular bedtime of a child fieet
entering school -6 or 7 years of age -
should not be later than 7 pan., for he will
.ttetnally need from 11 to 12 hones' sleep.
Of course, a little latitude in the way of
a trifle longer evenings before days on
-which school is not in session may be
• allowed, but in all such instances the child
, should sleep later the following day.
'After the seventh year the duration of
sleep may be gradually diminished; but
even at the ge of 19 and 20 between nine
-and ten ho ' sleep are actually needed.
.1n a gonertray it may be said that even
after a dill is 12 years old, and from that
time on until his eohool life is ended, 9 p.m.
ought to be his habitual hour for retiring.
One great fault of our educational system
is the requirement of Andy out of school.
In order for ...children to find time for -their
meald, have deffieietit exercise, etc., they
must study evenings, and often late into
the same. As a Consequence they not

recital writierleaa predicted -that the day of
the
DECADENCE OF OUR RACE
is surely coming.- He rightly skates that we
hide our defectives, oar dements, and our
pauper infirm in havens of refuge out of our
eight. Had we not these retreate,andoll our
mentally and physically afflicted were al -
all parents do -not know when they h
detects which are likely to pass mato t

of the present generation who are a
in former tim.eg, these ever present evils
and evidences of • national depreoiation
would frighten us. We would study more
than we do the laws of health, and how
best to maintain moral, intellectual and
national supremaoy. Look at the ever in-
oreaeing demands for. hospitals, asylums
for Wean° and imbeoiles, schools for feeble-
minded, retreats for nervous complaints,
almshouses for human wreoke, prisons for
chronic and oongenital vagabonds, and then
say if a vicious system of sanitation, of cue -
tome, of habitsietend of edoottelon_ hate not_
iithing to do with this state of things.
This is not the jeremiad of the pessinaiet ;
rather it is the story of a danger pipel to
whioh we would do well to take' heed. As
has been said, our educational system is
often blamedwhere it could not be held re-
sponsible. There is muoh in it, however, to
griticise. Children well advanced in 'whoa
are generally obliged to devote two hours to
study at home, so that they are actually at
work -and hard at work -about _an_ many
hourseach school day as the ordinary adult
laborer. Certainty, this is not as it ehould
bet, and to burden the yonng and tender
brains of the coming raoe in this way is
simply putting a premium upon degenera-
tion. No ohild should be allowed to study
evenings before he is 15 years old. It is
absolutely the duty of every parent to
observe this rule, and its violation • is a
•
sin. It is the parents, not the teachers,
aithea_tana_• aesponsiblea-ter-the-heal
sohool children, and it is for them to em -
phatioally shut down on the present
ruinone system of cramming. They alone
oan apply the remedy. But all must /te-
mpt their duty, and do it. As it is now, if
a child is not allowed to study evening° he
falls behind hie class, for the majority of
his mates are victims of the fault which hie
parents protect him frora. But in the end
he will be the gainer, even if his school
course lasts a year or two longer than
theirs. He will be like the slowly growing
tree, whioh takes the deepest root and has
the toughest fibres, while theirs is likely to
be a hot -house mushroom growth, whioh
means early decay both to mind and body.

THE HOUR BEFORE BEDTIME
very quietly. Books should be laid aside
and romping suspended, that, the nervous
system may be relieved of all excitement.
Children may amuse themselves with light
games, music, needlework or something of
the sort, but everything, •approaching ex-
oitement or brainwork is forbidden. The
youth of to -day ie singularly given to books
of fiotion, rich in soul -stirring tales. To
read one of these until bedtime means an
hour or two of restlessnese, and frequent
draftees when at last sleep comes on. The
nervous system of -the dreamer is not at
rest, and he is expending nearly as much
nerve force as he would were he awake -and
experiencing the same thoughts and monad
exoitemente. While one is exalted from
any cause, the oiroulation in his brain ie
correspondingly active, end it must quiet
down before sleep is possible. So, to,
infirm a child& good aight's sleep, let the
hour before bedtime be a quiet one, and,
above all, let there, be no brainwork over
echoed books.
A ward as to the sleeping apartment and
the night clothing of children. It ought
not be necessary to emphasize the impor-
tance of .pure air, unfortunately, few
parents rightly estimate its need. Without
it, it is absolutely impossible for -children
to be well. Even older children should not
be allowed to go to bed in a cold room ; it
should at least -be comfortably warm while
they are undressing, but the heat should be
shut off during the night unless it is
intensely cold. Flannel nightgowns should
be the rule in winter for children of all
ages. The older ones generally sleep in
woollen Yeats and wear over them cotton or
linen nightgowns. It would be infinitely
better did they remove the vest and sleep
in a longeloose flannel nightdrees. The bed
'covering ehquld be sheets and blankets only.
The sleeping rooms of children are never too
large, and are almost always too email. A
10x12 room, with a ceiling eight feet high,
really ought not be occupied by more than
one person, be it child or adult. Aad with
.only one occupant, in order to keep the air
of a room of that size healthy, it must be
all changed four times every hour. As for
children and white sleeping together, it k
a bad practice. Without entering into the
probable ex planation, we will simply, say
that children, as a rulet, suffer more or lees
under each conditions, and not infrequently
they in turn become pale, enfeebled,languid
and dell. This is most likely to be the
case where the adult bed -fellow is especially

While the continued multiplication of
the big apartment houses in New York
bas led to an increase in the number of
caterers, it has also improved the facilities
for keeping house economically. With the
washing sent out, it is not difficult to get
one servant to do she dusting, sweeping
and waiting onthe door. At night this
maid -of -all -work goes home. She •is
allowed 20 cents a meal, and either eats
with the, janitor's family or goes out to a
restaurant. In this way she is -spared the
temptation of boarding her relatives and
surfeiting hereelf. People who live this
way do not stint theme.elves, and, as a rule,
enough remains from the caterer's meal
for the sustenance of a not too hearty
honeemaid. Something of a „banquet is
made of the Sunday dinner, to which
friends, are invited. The supply comes to

tin ovens, in which the several . trays are
