she returned to her mother, she lisped:

county treasurer. The marriage was strictly
private affair, only the immediate relatives OF
the bride and the groom baing present Rev.
William Mckinley of the Methodist Episcopal
church performed the ceremony. The
wedding presents were numerous and costly,
among others being check for $500 from an
uncle of the bride and one for 500 from her
father. Mr.. and Mrs Howe are at home to
their friends at the residence of her parents,
where they will make their residence for the

ages of the 500 n-to-be turner's ranged
from IL to Is years, but in point of muscle
and training they were well advanced
for their years. There were five classes in
all, two from North Minneapolis, one from
St. Paul, one from East Minneapolis and one
from New Ulm. Very few of them were over
16 years of age, and their bright young faces
were study for any painter. The exercises
consisted of using all the different apparatus,
such as bars, clubs, horses, dunn b-bells etc.,
and remarkable degree Of proficiency was
shown. The boys went through the various
evolutions in manner which called forth ap-

This is q great industry. Coffee is the

growing is an interesting industry. The

years the bush bears fruit. and thereaf-

the trees blossom. The blossoms are

often happens, that the gathering is con-
tinued the year round, many trees pro-
ducing more than two crops. The labor
is done by slaves. many planters owning
hundreds of them. After the fruit Is
gathered it is thrown into large, open
yards, paved with rock and stone, and

away. After some days exposure to
the sun, the berries being perfectly dry,
they are put into the crusher to sepa-
rate the coffee from the husk. The coffee
is then passed through large and small
sieves, one under the other, with large
fan at the back of them, by which
means the coffee Is relieved of the husks
and graded according to the size of the

How nIany Hour Cor sleep2

There is an old saving that has
frightened q great many people from
taking the rest that nature demanded
for them. mine hours are enough for a
fool" They may be; and not too many
for wise man who feels that he needs
them. Goethe, when performing his
most prodigious literary feats, felt that
he needed nine hours; what is better, he
took them. We presume it is conceded
by al thoughtful persons that the brain
in very young children. say three or
four years of age, requires al Of twelve
hours in rest, or sleep. This period is
shortened gradually until, at fourteen
years Of age, the boy is fonnd to need
only ten hours. When full grown and
in a healthy condition, the man may
find night Of eight hours sufficient to
repair the exhaustion Of the day and
new-create him for the morrow. Bat III
he dfScoUer that he needs more sleep ks
should take Il. There Is surely some
thing wrong about him; perhaps for
gotten waste must be repaired. His
sleep, evidently has not been made up:
and until it has and he can spring to
his work with an exhilarati0n for It, he
should sensihly conclude to let his In
stinct control him and stay in bed

mixed with the cut fodder, we have
found advantageous, especially IN the
case of damaged hay or fodder. The
cows eat it with avidity. We have done
more or less steaming. but have ahan-
doned the practice. We have always
claimed that the chief advantage in
cooking or steaming is due to the fact
that in the case of damaged fodder the
animals will eat more of 1t. With COWS
