NOTES ON CURRENT EVENTS.
There is a good deal of logic and truth m the theory that injury may be sustained by one or two persons who are accustomed to sleep together. People differ m temperament, and the influence of temperament is either negative or positive. Positive natures are reflective ; negative natures are are absorbtive. Of two persons who generally room together, the positive one, if of weakly habit, will lose elements of strength'; they will be absoroed by the negative, and the result iv time will be a decrease of physical energy and nervous power, which will be evident. We do not approve the practice of a sickly or wean person sleeping with a strong one. Healthy children of the same age may room together, bnt we should protest against an old person sleeping with a young person.
