When the performers rise In the morning they hurry to the cook tent for breakfast Then they must get into their trappings for the parade, failure to report at 10:30 involving a fine of £5. If the big tent is up early the chances are that the arena will be filled with performers practicing for an hour before the parade.

The roughs saw the numbers, 250," '200' 350," etc., where they had before seen only 25," "29° and 85." The word went around that 'Long John' had added several hundred men to the police force, and the tough crowd were so intimidated that they never dared to do a thing."

The phenomenon called sleep may be , summed up In the following proposi- SFE { i { B £ i ie sil le 1 3? £2 ii 13 } k E 38 258 if i § g E & tions, says a writer in the Cosmopoli- tan: First--Sleep 1s temporary death of the funetions of the scnsitive system, due to exhanstion by fatigue. Is temporary For our purpose death may be con- sidered under the three heads--natural death, sudden death and death from | disease. Natural death is death from | ' old age. It differs from natural sleep only in degree. The gradual loss of sensibility by the sensitive organs which precedes sleep now takes place in the vital system, and al the organs pass into permanent sleep together. There can be no pain preceding or at the moment of such a death, any more than there is pain pre ceding or st the moment of passing into temporary & k Sudden death defined as death due to a sudden injury from without or within the body sufficient ! to destroy 'at ouce all irritability of - Sa i { | not froned, onc [ and I couldn't have mein toe sensTove ava veal evatemd It requires no argument to prove that, a person who is suddenly stricken dead can suffer no pain. The element of time must be present in order to suffer physical pain, ang in the sudden death of a person the element of time is abl sent. We come now to comsider the thirl and by far the most frequent form of death--namely, death from disease. As soon ns disease 1s established dy- ing begins, which is but a more rapid than natural ceasing of all sensibili- ties, with more or less suffering, nccording to the cause which produces it. This dying and suffering; called disease, must terminate either In 80 called death, which is insénsibil- ity to it, or In recovery, which is re moval of the cause of it. But In any event the suffering has been endured, final termina- accompanied no matter whether the tion is death or recovery J No one Is conscious of or ean recall the moment he passes from wakibg in- to natural or temporary sleep. Nor | shall we, by a "supreme agony" or im any other way, be conscious of passing into permanent sleep Being born and dying are the two most important physiological events ior the life history of our bodies, and we ghall know no move abolit the latter event at the time it occurs than we did about the former A LESSON IN NERVE.

"1 certainly never sent it to the laun® dry in that shape. I'd have had hard work tearing the sleeve out of the' shoulder the way this one was torn, made that hole in the cuff without some sort of & sharp and big punch. Clearly thd ghirt had been torn and mangled in that manner by being caught in the laundry machinery, and so I wrappea it up fn a neat little bundle and took it over to the laundry office, intending to make a claim for the value of it: I spread the shirt out on the counter' and called the clerk's attention to it and told him that I couldn't have torn the shirt in that manner; it must have' been done in the laundry, and how' about 1t? "Well! sald the clerk, 'we made no charge for it.' "As the full significance of this came | upon me--they had torn my shirt all to pieces, but they didn't meke any charge for it!--I staggered back, and 1 kept on staggering that way until had got out of the door.
