But presently the big eyes grew smaller. Elple’s little brown head began to nod, and she fell sound asleep. What waktned her? Elple did not know; but suddenly with s great start and eblrcr. she started up to find the Are burning very low and the room almost in complete darkness. She tat quite still, her heart throbbing so violently she was quite sure some one In the room must hear lb And there was tome one In the room. A dark figure was moving In the opposite corner to

~ Wild thoughts of burglars and midnight assassins rushed through Elple’a mind; but she was a brave little creature. and she did not scream. The servants were down stairs. In the kitchen, and she was the only living being In the house besides. It came Into her mind Ural she must stealthily reach forward to the bell anil ringb. but. Just as she was moving, the figur^ turned. . He advanced swiftly towards her. and. though Elple tried to speak out bravely and ask him what he wanted, she cotild not: her tongue seemed to cleave

You must combine your counting with your breathing to make it of any value. With each long and regular breath dole out one of your numbers. and if you are cot too cumbered with care you may fall asleep before you have reached the round hundred.

The very Idea of the ocean or of the sky may swallow up the little perplexities that cause wakefulness. There are some natural perversities about sleep.
