How Many Hours to Sleep.

Up to the fifteenth year most young
people require ten hours, and till tho
twentieth nine hours. After that are
every one finds how much he or she
requires, though rs general rule six
To eight hours are necessary. Eight
hours sleep will, however, prevent
more nervous arrangements than any
medicines can cure. During growth
there must be ample sleep if the brain
is to develop 20 its full extent, and the
more nervous, eXcitable or precocious
n child is, the loxger sleep should it
get if its intellectual progress is not to
come TO premature standstill or its
lifa to be cut short at an early age.
Reconstructed History.
Three-year-old Jimmy had been
taught 10 say his prayers, count and
tell who discovered America. He had
mingled with the boys in the neigh
borhood, though, who taught him to
say, when asked what he was, "a First
Ward tough.n His mother started to
show off his attainments to some yisi-
tors, but his first answer settled the
question for that day. "Who discov-
cred AmericaP" asked his mother. "a
First Ward tough" )" readily answered
Jimmy, forgetful of his lesson. Hereaf-
ter Jimmy will be carefully drilled be-
fore he is shown to company.-Bugdlo

PROHIBITION SWEETNESS OF
TEMPER

The Third Party fellows continue to
show their bad tempers and lack OF
temperance. Charity is said to begin
at homeland so should temperance.
The State Chronicle stated that Gull
ford county went Republican in 1886
because the Third Party had ticket
in the field; whereupon the Prohibi-
ton organs brandished the tomahawk,
tore their hair, foamed at the mouth,
and gave the Comanche yell. Listen
a moment to their rawlings. They are
not worth listening to except to hear
how men talk when they get beside
themselves, and thereby take warn
ing. They declare the editor Of the
Chronicle ''to be the blatant dema
gogue that we usedto think he could
not be )" and COLON to say if the Chro"-
;cle ever repeats the charge, sit will
be an unmitigated liar" Is this tenn
perance? Well, hardly. But don't
let them ruffie your temper, Brother
Daniels in November we'll cover up
the whole crowd-Radicals, Prohibl.
tionists, and all other disturbers OF the
public peace. Well make it all right

her son, Allen V. Abbott, and for the last
ten years in Boston. Mrs. Abbott and her
husband were among the first members of
the Congregational church at Worcester
and were among its firmest friends all their
lives. As pioneers they endured all the
hardships and privations incident TO the
settlement of new country. In every
station in life, as a dutiful daughter, faith
full wife, Loving mother, kind neighbor
and good member of society, it may well
be said of this woman, as il was in the text
at her funeral, "She hath done what she
could" Her surviving children are Ellen

of Visalia, Cal, Kate L., wife of Hon. Will
lam Chaplin of Middlesex, and Allen ", OF
