Sexual Sciences which is the result of forty
years study on.the natural laws governing
the mutual relation of the sexes-is one OF
the most remarkable and useful volumes Of
the day, and one which Should find its way
into the hands of every truth loving man
and woman. Young men who value their
domestic happiness, should not fail to read
his remarks on the subject of selecting
wife, as the information it contains is be-
yond value. 1t will confer blessing upon
all who read it, and should be read by all
who have arrived at the years OF discretion.
Inc book appeals to every class, and to peo-

by every man and woman in our broad land.
We are decidedly of Prof Fowler opinion,
that we know too little about our physical

youth, when knowledge would preserve its
possessors from fatal errors of conduct which
only ignorance could cause them to fall into

Central Wisconsin Fair,

The second annual fair Of the Central
lsconsin Agricultural and Mechanics
Association was held at the fair grounds, in
this city, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday
Thursday and Friday OF last week. The
two first days were devoted to the reception
ofe entries and the arranging of Articles for
the exhibition. The weather was of a cold
and threatening character rather discour-
aging to exhibitors and doubtless kept
many from making entries that otherwise
would have done so. But notwithstanding
all this exhibitors reported freely during
the two days, and the result was, that on
Tuesday night but. little space was left un-
occupied Wednesday opened up bright
and pleasant, but somewhat cold for the
season. There was fair attendance on
the grounds and the greatest interest was
evinced by all at the fine show that was
made, far exceeding general expectations.
In the line of fancy articles and merchan-
disc the display was hardly equal to last
year, out there was visible improvem ent
in several important departments over the
previous fair. Especially was this so in the
display OF cattle, horses, sheep and swine.
Ihe chow of poultry fell considerably be-
hind, and with but little effort could have
been made much better. Considering the sea-
son the show OF fruit was very credtable.
In manufactures the exhibition was excel
lent, many fine specimens of domestic ma N
ufactnre being on the grounds. Thursday
was anot her fine day and the "big' day of
the show, the grounds being crowded with
people from all pats. At2p. NJ, the ad-
dress, an excellent production was delivered
oy Hon. a. S. Orton. Friday, another
beautiful day, there was visible falling
OH ia the attendance, but still there seemed
ne tagging OF interest among those present
Taken as whole the fair was a grand sue
cess and fully met the anticipations of every.
body concerned. Too much praise cannot
be bestowed on the members of the societ,
for their indefatigable efforts in behalf o
the exhibition. The President, Mr.. J. H
Sleeper, spared no means within his power
to make everything move in the right di
fection, and in these endeavors was abl,

in order was to pick up the scat

There were twenty-seten old bar

different heaps Of ashes, eighty
four pairs of old shoes, boots and

of old socks, nine old coats, and
pants too numerous to mention,

made up the complement.
I seated myself on the fence and
surveyed the scene before me with
some little establishment. Then l
returned my tools to their
