Four Hours of Sleep Not Enough.

Mr. Thomas Edison says that four hours of sleep is enough for any one, and that it is a waste of time to take any more. So long, Thomas; talk about something you are better qualified to discuss. Is your own health so wonderfully steady as to entitle your rules for living to be generally accepted? Wasn’t it you who had a mastoid abscess the other day? You are olily sixty-one years old. Any one with decent luck can live that, long, notwithstanding some abuse of natural strength. When you are ninety and still hale your habits of life will become interesting. Do you want people to sit up half the night to use your patent lamps and increase your royalties ? Tut, tut Thomas don’t be so greedy.
