To sleep well blood that swells the

must flow back, leaving a greatly dimiu

digest well, this blood is needed at the
stomach, and nearer the fountains of
life. It is a fact established beyond sleep the
possibility of coutraditiou that
aids this digestion, and that the process
of digestiouis conducive to refreshing
