SUCEP. Boucicault was so anxious to get at much out of life as possible that during the last four or five years of his career he denied himself proper sleep, going to bed at Ivvo and rising at six." The time passed in slum her he considered wasted. More rest than this he did not seem to require. The other day we heard of a man who never sleeps, as we understand the word. He is the caretaker of a large building to which people resort at all hours of the twenty-four. This Cerberus volunteered for a double salary to do the watching day and night, and so he does, sitting in a chair and opening a gate'every time the bell rings. There is never a longer interval than fifteen minutes, and yet he contrives to snatch sufficient sleep to seic/e him. His hefiith is good and his happiness; apparently complete. He looks upon himself as fortunate in having this exacting place, which most other people would not accept at any price. The amount of sleep is to a considerable degree a matter of temperament. Napoleon, according to the/iife of Josephinii, recently published, was a prodigious sleeper, taking nine hours when he could get it. His active brain required this amount of rest. On the other hand, Eniile LettrS, the author of the dictionary, needed only foui hours. He went to bed at four a.m. and get up at eight. /Ml the rest of the time, except a few minutes at his meals, he spent iat l;is desk. He lived to eighty-live, anc [ enjoyed perfect health.
