Fought with "a DOG,

Mrs. William Trafiord, OF Twelfth and
Oxford streets, Philadelphia, 10 suffering

counter with q Beighbor's big New
ioundland dog. The bites are about each
shoulder. Oye. q dozen deep cuts made
by the long teeth of the dog were found
and cauteri2ed by the physician who
dressed the wounds.
Last Monday Mrs. Trafford called on q
friend who lives near Ninth and Oxford
streets. She had been there often before,
and had become, she thought, . friend OF
the big dog IN the house, but she was
har)ly seated before the dog put his
head In her lap and growled. She said: /:
dog sprang at her throat. She stood up
and folded ber arms In front OF her neck,
thus probably saving her life. The brute
then bit one Of her shoulders, and when
she turned, tho other. She kept her
presence of mind and met the next attack
by thrusting one hand down the dogs
throat By this time the lady oil the
house had appeared, d:sappesred and re-
appeared with assistance. The dog WAS
grabbed by tie collar and the collar
twisted by . stick through 1t till the
brute was choked OFT aud pushed Into
ths cellar OF tho house.
Mrs. Tsilord went out, and attempted
to 90 to her husband's bicycle .tore at
Twelfth and Oxford. Tue dog broke out
through the basement window and drove
her into ncigheoring house.
Last evening Mrs. Trailord was suffer-
ing less pain, but her arms were begin
ming TO turn black above her elbows.
DR.. vii lam McUonb considers her cou-
dition serious. Her friends dog wss
shot yesterday, after a good deal Of re-
monstrance, for 1t was an unususlly fine

RULES FOR SLEEPING.
Never Let Anybody Wake You, nor Retire
on Thrilling Literature.

Never Let Anybody Wake You, nor Retire
on Thrilling Literature.
St. James Gazette.l
How many hours sleep do you require?
As many as you can get. That is the gen.
eral answer to such a question. No rule
can be laid down. Jeremy Taylor thrived
on three hours, and so does Cardinal New
man. Many centenarians are contented
with five hours, but some Of them require
eight or nine. Unless you are afflicted with
a pronounced insomnia thing widely
different from occasional, and even trouble
some wakefulness-you are foolish to en-
ploy any kind Of narcotic drug. But there
are two rules Of sleeping which everybody
may adopt without hesitation: % Never
let yourself be awakened by anybody else,
but wait until you have slept out your
sleep; (2) Get up as soon as you are awake.
If you follow these two rules, the hours of
sleep will very soon regulate themselves. If
you read yourself TO sleep you should read
a heavy book, not light one-a book that
taxes and tires your brain, not one that stirs
and stimulates it. A dull book is good, q
stupid one is better. Some persons recon-
mend cup of beef tea-just to amuse the
digestion. A country gentleman declared
that whenever he was afraid of sleepless
night he used to invite the vicar of his par
ish to smoke pipe with him. The result
was deep and refreshing slumber.

though. He is thoughtful man, but does
not dress we'll. One day he wanted me to
brush his hat. brushed it the wrong way
for him. He did not know the difference,
but gave gave me quarter and went out.
One day tried to show off to him, and
while was shaving him. spoke Of the
beautiful spring weather and coated from
the poet: 'Oh, what is so rare as day in
Jnne?'
"He said that some days in March was a
good deal rarer, for he'd seen 'em when they
was almost raw. He is wag, Mr.. Evarts
is. He can think OF more puns than any
body. He is really wit OF the old school,
but he is hard to shave, and when you get
lather up his nose his remarks are almost
cruel at times"

BEER A CENTURY OLD.

Banquet by n Brewer.

A Novelty Passed Around Mt a London
Banquet by n Brewer.
Pail Mall Gazette.l
At the monthly house dinner Of the Lab
oratory Club, held at the Criterion Restaur-
ant last night, DR.. G.. II. Morris, of Messrs
WorthingtOn & Co.'s, brewers, of Burton
on-Trent, read paper on some beer which
was discovered walled up in the cellars of
that firm, and which was brewed in 1798
1t is believed that it was ceilared on
the occasion of the birth of some
previous members of the firm. The beer
was tasted by the members of the club and
pronounced to be sound; it possessed no
bitterness but was brilliant, and its con-
dition was rather of the quality of sherry.
The bottles in which the beer was found
have been pronounced by an expert to have
been those in use at the end OF the last GEN.
tury. DR.. Morris, in the course of his
paper, stated that microscopic examina-
ton OF the sediment caused him to suspect
the presence of few Yeast cells still retain
ing vitality.
