VALUE oE SLEEP.


How Many Careless Persons Are Destroy.
| Ing Their Lives. cza
There are thousands of busy people
who die every year for want Of sleep,
1t may DO that too much sleep Injuries
some persons; but in an excitable peo-
pie, and in our intense business habits,
there is far more mischief for want OF
sleep than from too much OF it. Sleep
lessness becomes a disease II Is tho
precursor OF insanity. When 1t does
not reach to that sad result, II is still
full Of peril, us well as Of suffering.
Thousands of men have been indebted
for bad bargains, for lack of courage,
for ineffectiveness, to loss of sleep.
Sleep repairs the wastes which wax
ing hours havo made. It rebuilds the
system. Tho night Is the repair-shop
of the body. Every part of tho
system is silently ovorhauled, and
oil the organs, tissues and SUBJ
stances are replenished. The man who
sleeps little, repairs little; fhe sleeps
poorly, he repairs poorly. II he uses
up in the day less than he accumulates
at night, he will gain In. health and
vigor. II he uses up all that he gains
at night, he will just hold his own. II
he uses more by day than he gathers
at night, he will lose. And II this last
process be long continued, he must
succumb.
A man who would be good worker
must see TO 1t that he is good sleeper.
Human life is like a mill; sometimes
the stream is so coplous that one needs
care but little about his supply. But
often the stream that turns the mill
needs to be economical. A dam is
built to hold a larger supply. The mill
runs the pond pretty low through
the day, but by shutting down tho
gate, the night refills the pond, and
the wheels go merely around again tho
next day. Once in while, when
spring rains are copious and freshets
overflow, the mill may run night and
day; but this is rare. Ordinarily the
mill should run by day, and tho
pond ill up by night
Every man must sleep according to
his temperament, But eight hours is
the average. II one requires a little
more or little less, he will find 1t out
for himself. Whoever by work, pleas
ure, sorrow or by any other cause is
regularly diminishing his sleep, is de-
stroying his life. A man may hold out
for time. But nature keeps close ao-
counts, and no man can dodge her
sottlements.--N. y Ledger.

Calico Printing slmpIlfied.

Is thought that the now invention
In calico manufacture, that is, the sim.
mtaneous process Of color printing
which has been brought forward In
England, will in time completely revo-
iutionize certain classes OF calico, vel
vet and velveteen printing, and also
the printing OF advertisements and
various other matters in colors. The
novel character OF this simultaneous
process is sufficiently evident from the
fact, as represented, that by means Of
1t, II required, one thousand shades
may be printed off at one impression.
According to this method, as do
scribed. instead OF using engraved
rollers as in ordinary calico printing,
or stones as in the case OF colored id
vertisements, the designs OF pictures
are "built upn in case Of solid colors
specially prepared somewhat after the
style Of mosaic work; portion is then
cut or sliced of about an inch In
thickness, and this wrapped around
a cylinder, the composition having
only to be kept moist, and any number
of impressions can be printed of, tn 0
colors being completely fast.---M. Y

Graphic Description of Thrilling Ad-
q venture in the WiIds of Cuba.
Discouraged in our quest for wild
boar, VIC retraced our steps toward tho
mountaineers' cabins. All the after
noon Jose had at intervals unloosed
our remaining dog, and, giving grunt
IN imitation of the wild hog, the wise
animal had bounded out OF sight,
ventior lejos-or, with nose appraised
and smelling far" as the Cubans have
it-but had invariably returned with
out trace OF our sought-for game.
But suddenly, when not a milo
distant from the mountaineers',
he loft us with yelp and
spring, and away we all went pell-mell
after him, myraids Of disturbed owls
splitting and shrieking above A run
OF twenty rods brought us to the dog
and a huge black boar, thirty feet
away, which had turned to protect the
retreat of n herd Of wild hogs scamper-
ing away behind. "Aqui esta un bar
AGO cimaron!" ("Here is wild boar!')
shouted Jose, wild as the dog itself
with delight. There stood the savage
fellow, all head, brlstling shoulders,
legs, tail with plumy trembling end,
jaws and tuslSs, champing and crack
ing his jaws, from which great rolls of
foam wero already working, with n
hideous, sucking sound. splendid
picture Of fcrocious brute bravery.
To one sido and another he sprang
us the dog crowded him Then he
would charge the dog and whirl In tho
air, scattering tho earth like an ex-
ploding sholl. Closer crowded tho two
brutes, In air half the time, each bent
on death, the dog frequently clearing
the boar at n bound, and maddening
him with savage snappings and lacera-
tions OF shoulders or hams Over and
under went the dog with marvellous
agility, frequently sending tho boar
four feet into the air but every charge
from the dog brought still more say
age counter-chargo from the boar. I
believe no. such agile and ferocious
movements were ever elsewhere seen.
For forty feet in every direction tho
forest ground looked like a freshly
plowed field and 1t seemed TO my
startled eyes as though a cyclone OF dog,
bog, boar, mud. bark and froth had de-
seconded into the darkening covert.

cyclone, though no mortal eyos could
have followed their movements or

this lasted, saw flash OF fire, and
through the roar of it all heard shot.

somewhere IN Its very core. Then
a Cuban yell went up that set the tree

A CONVENIENT BARN,

One that Serves Numerous PURPOSES "a
Every Body's Satisfaction.
II will describe barn that | built O
few years ago for stock barn, a place
TO store up apples after picking them,
moving away hay, etc, Tho main
building is 80 feet wide by 65 feet long,
with l6 feet posts and u feet sheds all
around, making the structure 81 feet
wido by SO feet long. It is built on a
gentle ridge; the posts set on solid
stone pillars just above the ground
1t has no floor but the solid ground,
and the water from the caves runs into
different streams, so there is no mud,
and not oven dampness inside OF tho
barn. There is a driveway through
the center tic whole length, and 10
foot section on each side Of tho drive
way. In this part OF the barn We store
up from 1000 to 5000 barrels OF ap-
pies till we get them packed ready to
ship. After the apples have all been
sold OFF, We fill this space with corn on
the fodder and husk it at our leisure,
and in bad weather. The space over
head holds the 40 tons OF hay which
have been put up at hay harvest
There is 12-foot space on each sldo,
running tho whole length, with stalls
for cattle on one side and horses on tho
other, enough to accommodate 18 head
OF each, the mangors all facing to the
center driveway so they can be fed
from tho center. We have sliding
windows behind the stock, out OF which
to throw the manure. Above them are
sliding glass windows for light and air.
For making manure, we use straw TO
bed all the stock, but only use the
straw in times of snow when we can
not get forest leaves. The farmer who
has never bedded his stock with leaves
does not know how to keep his stock
clean and make great amount Of the
very finest manure. Two men with
the wagon-bed (on sled for conven-
ience) when the leaves are moist can
put in 10 well-tamped loads per day,
Tho barn is capable Of holding va
riety of fruit, stock, crops during the
year, and Of making q large amount Of
manure. Ohio Farmer.

THE HOHENZOLLERNS.
a Family Whose Ascendoncy Is Due Ii
tirely to Its Merits.

! FAMILY Whose Asccndcncy Is Due En-
tirely to Its Merits.
The North German Gdzcttc, In IN
article upon tho new Emperor of Ger
many, makes, in behalf Of his family,
claim that will be generally ad-
mitted. "a precious possession of the
house of Hohenzollern, handed down
from father TO son through many gen.
erations," is ian earnest feeling OF
duty and strictness In performance OF
their high functions" In fact, it is
not possible TO account for the success
that family has had in the world, ex-
cept by reference 10 its merits. There
has not been single step in the series
of events that have expanded the lit
tie, arid and sterile Mark of Branden-
burg OF two centuries ago into the
Kingdom OF Prussia rs we know it, to
say nothing OF the Empire OF
Germany, that can fairly be
attributed to luck. The fortunes Of
Prussia have flowed and ebbcd accord
ing TO the ability of its rulers from the
time Of the Great Elcctor to that OF
Emperor William H., but there is not
one OF all this long. line who can fairly
be described as worthless man, scarce
ly one who does not shine in compar-
ison with his contemporary ON tho
throne OF England, or OF France, SO long
as the throne OF France was occupied
by hereditary sovereign. There has
not boon one who did not really attend
to his business as King, according to
his lights, who was not, as our German
contemporary puts 1t, strict in the per-
formance Of his high functions. Fred
erick William ii. was not wise mon
arch, but he was very.much wiser than
George ILL.,, and Frederick William
III. was weak one, but no was hero
compared with George w.
II is questionable how far tho very
virtues OF Its rulers have delayed the
political development of Germany,
though that they have delayed 1t there
can be no question. The weaker and
more worthless monarch is the
more evident is tho necessity that his
country shall get on without him, and
the easier it is to do 80. 1t is not with
out significance that the greatest
strides in the direction OF popular lib
erty and responsible government that
have been taken in England have been
taken under her most worthless Kings.
Magma Charta was granted by King
John, the Habeas Corpus act was
passed under Charles ii, Indeed, 1t is
not In human nature that man who is
conscious of exercising his authority
for the public good should willingly
consent that It be abridged, The EN-
peror who has just died was moro of
modern statesman than any other
Prince of his house, and yet In the
very proclamation that betokened his
intention Of modernlzing the constitu-
tion of Prussia there was an autocratic
tone that Jared upon English and
American readers as strangely obso-
lete and feudal for the chief magis.

FOES IN THE AIR.
rpidemic Fevers Due In Most Instnuo
to Mlcrnscnnln Forma of Lie.

Epidemic Fevers Due In Most Instance
to Microscopic Forms of Life.
II is a wonderful fact that the air w,
breathe contains foes as deadly and in
visible as the malignant spirits witt
which ancient opinion peopled it
Most epidemics are duo TO these un.
seen enemies. To be sure, II Is prob.
able that the earth and organic bodies
on tho earth, and not the air, generate
them. They are taken up us dust
and, being little heavier than air, are
long suspended in it. They are known
by the general name OF microbes-mi-
croscopic forms of life. Only iow OF
the many classes OF microbes are harm
'ful, just as only n few OF the millions
of species of larger vegetable growth
are poisonous.
In 1888 an epidemic fever, charac-
terized by great depression, inaamma-
tion of the bronchial cough, swept
over the world from east to west. It's
advent was sudden, and in most cases
the person was well again In less than
a fortnight. II was quito fatal, how
ever, to the aged and the weak. This
was the famous influenza. The same
malady has repeated its ravagos-
sometimes over extensive tracts OF
country, sometimes only locally-many
times since the Middle Ages. II it is
OF microbic origin-as is probable
what inconcoivable swarms OF microbes
must have filled tho air! OF course,
no precaution could avail, except the
habitual maintenance OF high health
and good hygienic conditions.
Malaria is due TO microbes which
reach their victims either from the air,
by inhalation. or from drinking water
which has absorbed them. Boil the
water, avoid the night air, sleep In the
higher rooms OF the house, and guard
against all excesses. Typhoid fevor
Is caused by microbes from the dis
charges OF n previous patient which
either have found access TO drinking
water, or have been taken up driod In
TO the air. Microbes flourish In oil
kinds of moist filth. Tho chief safe
guard is general cleanliness, the boil
ing of all suspected water, and ample
ventilation and sunshine. Diphtheria,
scarlet-fcver, whooping-cough and
measles are due to microbes given of
from the skin or breath OF the patient.
They either float in tho air OF the
room, or become attached TO the furni-
turo, walls and bedding. Avoid in
fectcd rooms and persons. Attendants
should keep their stomachs in an act
i've condition with digestible food, but
should not overload them. Most MI
crobes are digested and rendered
harmless by vigorous stomach.
The surost prophylactics-as pre-
ventivos are called-are high health,
abundance OF air and sun
shine, the boiling OF water and milk,
and the avoidance of whatever do
presses the physical system-loss OF
sleep, protracted watching and all ex-
cesses, and cheerful courage. - Y0uth's
