A Fearful Struggle with a Eabid Dog.
A crippled man, Mr. Ilcmrry, shut
in a room fn DccNsi with mud dun,
has just shown pluc K and piuioneo ol
mind. On Friday last, his wife and
child went oul leaving him in bed.
Tho dog tried to go with them, but
wus driven back. Uetnery lay read
ing for uboul an hour, lien bo was
aroused by tho actions of tho dog,
which stood in the cenlre of tho room
with glaring eyes, and bristling hair,
and yelping hideously. On being
spoken to, tho dog slunk under the
bod and lay there howling with pain.
A gust ol wind closed the door, utid
Domcry and the dog were shut in the
room together.
In a cliort limo the animal sprang
from u oiler tho bed, and begun a fu
rious circuit of tlie room, Knapping his
jaws, from w hich oozed a thick saliva
that scented the room liko mu-k.
Hound and round ho rushed, upsct
ing chairs, bounding over tho stove
und catching at everything in his
wav.
Ilemcry yelled ul tho dog, and bade
bim lie down. Just then tho brute
halted al tho door, and Demery raised
himself on bis elbow and laid bold of
his crutch, intending lo rise and open
tho door. The dog enraged by iho
movement, sprang ut him with a
bowl, bul received n blow from the
crutch which sent hi in rolling on the
floor. Tho animal soon struggled up,
however, and reoumud bis mad race
around tho room, presenting a more
frightful visage than beforo. Demery
moved to the sido of tho bod next to
the wall, und gripped big crutch ready
lor defence.
It suddenly occurred to him that
his wife and child would soon return,
and t hut tho dog, which he saw was
rabid, would probably attack olio or
bothoflhcm as they would unsus
pectingly enter. This wus Iroin that
moment tho one trrrihlo dread that
filled his mind. He formed tin unse l
fish resolvo, and at once acted upon it
II o would exi ilo tho hruto to ullttck

sfyle ol politeness. Hut the answer
seldom throws any light on tho won

Then wo endeavor to proho our ow n
