Tho old saying in regard to sleep, "nino hours nro enough for a fool," has frightoned many peoplo from taking a rest that was nocessnry to them. "Na turo takes fivo, custom soven, laziness niiio and wickednoss elcvon," is wrong in nt least two of its assertions. Thero aro very fow instances in which naturo docs not demand inoro than fivo hours sleep. It is truo that sleeping, liko eat ing, is very much n matter of habit, and you may train yourself to dispenso with moro than fivo hours slocp, as you may omit tho third moal of tho day. How long you will fiourish under this regi mon will dopond upon tho strength of your constitution. You may faro like tho man's horse, who, when it had bo como reduced to a diet of ono straw a day, in tho most ungrateful manner died on his hands. A porson may need nino hours sleep out of tho twenty-four without being either lazy or foolish. In deed ho is a' wiso man if, feeling that ho requires them, ho is sensible enough to tako them. Gootho, whon performing his greatest literary feats, took nino hours sleep. A full grown adult in a healthy condition will seldom require moro than eight. If, however, bo dis covers that ho is not sufficiently re freshed by eight hours he should tako more. It is a pretty safe rulo to sleep as long as you aro sleepy. "Thero are people," says a writer, "who aro wiso enough to eat when they aro hungry, bat who have never attained that higher degree of wisdom to sleep whon they are sleepy." Unless you nro a very lazy per son indeed, you ate not likely to take more than your constitution requires, for, of course, dawdling in bod is not sleeping. By shortening tho neccsBory hours for sleep yu may bring upon yourself "insomnia." Thero nro scion title writers on tbo subject who claim that tho best remedy for this is to learn to sleep in day time. This is very well whero for some cause, work, watching, or pleasure, you may have failed to get your needed sleep for a night or two. There is undoubtedly a virtue in riaps, ovou short ones, and tho art of napping in the daytime, although I could never acquire it, is a desirable one, and liko most arts, is matter of practice. Still, it is a bad practice to get into tho habit of turning night into day, and if you aro not kept awoke by care and illness, but merely havo lain awako becauso you could not sleep, I should recommend you to light the consequent drowsiness tho next day, in order that you may, if possible, resume- your natural rest ot night. Sleeplessness is generally the result of an uufortuuato habit of "think ing," gonorally on unpleasant subjects, nftor ono has retired for the night. Dr. Frank Hamilton, a grent physician and n wiso man, said : "Gloomy thoughts provent Bleep. The poor and unfortu nate magnify nnd incrcaso their misfor tune by too much thinking. 'Blessed bo ho who invented slccpl' but thrice blessed bo ho who shall invent n euro for thinking 1" Ivy poison can bo cured by rubbing simply rnw onions on tho affected parts.
