Dr. J.A. Hornsby, assistant chief of electmecity at the fair, who has just reâ€" turned from a visit to Edison‘s laboraâ€" tory, says the great electrician has evolved a new theory of his own on the subject of sleep ____| * _ C 4 "Mr â€" Edison believes," said Dr. Horngby recently, "that the time is coming when men will do without sleep or with so little sieep that it will cut no figure in a man‘s working hoars. "Wefwere in the Lewellynâ€"park laboratory at Orange,N.J., when some one spoke of Mr. Edison‘s marvelous powers of endurance. I asked him if he had ever found anybody who could keep up with him day in and day out without breaking down. The question was suggested by ‘a report thâ€"t had come in from one of his employees, who had gone to pieces from pverwork. When I asked about it, fr. Edison smiled a little and said hé had just two men with him in the establishâ€" ment who kept up the gair day and night for years and seemed to be as good as ever physically. Then he auâ€" nounced his belief that ultimately there would be no such thing as long sleepâ€" ing hours for any but invalids." | ‘‘The truth is that this habit of sleeping originated when there was no such thing as a good artificial light. People could not read, they had no way of amusing themselves as night,s0 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 light and other means of illumination, the world is sleeping less and less all the time. By and by, gradually of course,but surely, the time will come when an hour or two of rest will be enough. Then peoâ€" ple will find that they have been wastâ€" ing valuable time. It is all right for a man to change his work or seek some sort of diversion, but this is very easy to do by changing work and varying the subject of study." "This theory," continued Dr. Horns| _ Ca by, "is discussed considerably among| _ W the young men who know Mr. Ediâ€"| Sa son‘s habits from personal association | _ Th with him in his laboratory. _ Mr. Tate,| _ Yo his private secretary, said it was no |laugt wonder ‘the old man thought as he| W did about rest. _ ‘He did work 72 hours | gever struiZ;ht,‘ explained Mr. Tate, ‘but then w he went to sleep and staid there for | know 6X hours without stopping, except | you. when he awakened up long enough to | _ Tp eat. â€" He went for years working hard | tatio all the time, with scarcely any rest at| Y all: but he could drop down anywhere | Jlow, for an hour or for 10 minutes and | busit come up again as fresh as if he had | do y been on a month‘s vacation." TY Then Dr Hornsby told how the inâ€" ventor practices his own theory. "Ediâ€" son has finally got through with his kinetoscope," he said, "and it will be shown in New York and Chicago some time this week. â€" He calls it a toy,and has been amusing himself getting picâ€" tures of celebrities who comeâ€"down to his laboratory for the purpose. He has a series of instantaneous pbotographs of Sandow that show him in his exerâ€" cises. When the pictures are putb in the machine and come into view in rapid succession it shows every motion even the swelling of his mu:cles, to meet some perticular strain.
