There was a thin and nervous woman who could not sleep. She visited her physician, and he said: ‘‘Do you eat anything just before going to bed?,” “Oh, no, doctor,” the patient replied. “ Well/'’ said the. physician, “just keep a glass of milk and some biscuit beside you, and every night, the last thing you do, make :> light meal.” “But, doctor,” cried the lady, “you told me on no account to eat anything before retiring.” “pooh, pooh,” said the doctor, “that was three months ago- Science has made enormous strides since then.”
