EDISON’S WAR WITH SLEEP.
The Wizard Believes That Man Can}
Do Without It.
The discoveries made during the present
. century have been very numerous and farreaching. It is scarcely possible for us to
realize the conditions that prevailed a century ago. So much has been accomplished
that one” now hesitaites-to--proneunce-any
proposed achievements iinpossible.
Among those who in receiit years have
contributed essentially to the progress of
invention is Thomas A. Hdison. He has
accomplished much and is attempting a
great deal more. All of his schemes have
not been successful, but is impossible to say
tiey never will be. He ~-makes-improvements irom time to time, and spares no
pains to render his ideas practically usefal
Mr. Edison’s latest. idea will likely astonish many of his admirers, and it is probable, that it will take some time. to put it in
‘practical operation.. He is disposed to make },
war on the sleep habit, whieh many people
have been inclined to regard as rather useful than otherwise. Indeed, it is consideced by some people that sleep is necesgary
to health: and long life. But it is_well
known that the same theory has been held
with reference to many other things which
the advanced thinkers of the day have condemned. Only a few years ago a C:binet
officer of the United States decided that
tobacco is a necessary of life, and the same
“theory is held by many as to lager beer,
wine or spirits. On the other hand we have
vegetarians who insist that all sorts. of
animal food are not only unnecessary but
hurtful. There are those who think ice-water
is one of the most deadly of all beverages that
are inuse. All these things tend to show
that somebody is badly mistaken as to what
is useful or necessary, and reminds us that
we should not-be too dogmatic in adhering
to opinions because they are old.Mr. Edison accounts tor the sleep habit
as follows:
“The truth is that this habit of sleeping
originated when there was no such thing as
a good artificial light. The people could
—not-read, they had no way to amuse -themselves at night, so when darkness came
there was nothing left for them, to do but
lie down and lose themselves in oblivion.
Now that we have the electric ligit and
other means of illumination, the world is
sleeping less and less all the time. By and
by, gradually of cour.e, bit eurely,, the
time will come wheh an hour or two of
sleep will b2 enough. Then people will
find that they have been wasting valuable
time. It is all right for a man to change
his work or seek some sort of diversion, but
that is very easy todo by changing work
and varying the subject of study.”
This is precisely in line with the philosophy which holds that men are only what
their environments make them. In support
of his theory Mr. Edison relates that when
the phonograph had tobe finished in» cer~
tain number of hours in order to be in London on acertain day, he worked continuously for seventy-two hours without a minute of sleep, ands» did all his assistants
with the exception of one or two. His
chief assistant says that Mr. Edison has
gone on for years working hard with very
little rest, merely dropping down occasionally
“for a rest of an hour, or, perhaps, for only
ten minutes, and then coming up apparently as fresh as iffhe had had a month’:
vacation. For these reasons Mr. Edison
lieves that the time is coming when men’

which is iver Pills. Purely vegetable, sugar-coated, easy to take and
quick to assimilate, this is the idea:
family medicine—the most popular,
safe, and useful oes in phar-macy. Mrs. M. A. BROCKWELL,
Harris, Tenn., says:
“Ayer’s Cathartic Pills cured me of sick
headache‘and my husband of neuralgia. We
think there ts
No Better Medicine,
and have induced many to use it.
‘ “Thirty-five years ago this Spring, I was
run down by hard work and a succession of
colds, which made me so feeblé that it was
au effort for me-to walk: -I-consulted the
doctors, but kept sinking lower until I had
given up all hope of ever being better.
Happening to be in a store, one day, where
medicines were sold, the proprietor noticed
my weak and sickly appearance, and, after
a few questions as to my health, recommended me to try Ayer’s Pills. I had little
faith in these or any other medicine, but
concluded, at last, to take his advice and try
& box: ~ Before ft had-used-them all, Iwas
‘very much better, and two boxes cured me.
I am now 80 years old; but I believe that
if it had not been for Ayer’s Pills, I should
have been in my grave long ago. I buy 6
boxes every year, which make 210 boxes up
to this time, and I would no more be with
out them than without bread.”’—H. H.
