Day vs. Night.

A scientific writer says that night is the time which nature utilizes for the growth of plants and animals; children grow more rapidly during the night In the daytime the system is kept busy disposing of the wastes consequent on activity, but while asleep the system is free to extend its operations beyond tlye mere replacing of worn-out particles, hence the rapid growth. This is why invalids need so much rest and sleep.
