So they stayed with him and watched every movement he made. But they were surprised. Though they watched him
35、hour after hour and day after day, they never saw Herpin sleeping. In fact, he did not even own a bed. He never needed one.The only rest that Herpin sometimes got was sitting in a comfortable chair and reading newspapers. The doctors were puzzled by this strange continuous sleeplessness. They asked

41、rking, a couple of older boys stopped by to watch.“What are you doing?” asked one of the visitors.“We plan to dig a hole all the way through the earth!” one of the brothers answered excitedly.The older boys began to laugh, telling the younger ones that digging a hole all the way through the earth wa
42、s impossible. After a long silence, one of the diggers picked up a jar full of spiders, worms and a lot of insects.
