ancestors. He was willing to compromise,
however, and asked for only 10000 kroner and
certain conditions regarding the restoration

building Of new street. Reasonable as Mr.
Lund thought he was, he found no one to
approve of his offer, and he will consequently
take the matter into court.

All want Nobel Prizes.

It will probably be more difficult for the
Nobel committee to make awards this year
than it was last year. The prizes were so
large as to be almost fabulous in comparison
with what art and science MAY win. and very
few realized that such amounts could possibly
be paid. Since the first awards and several
well-known people have actually received
what amounts to independent fortunes, there
has poured in on the committee applications
of all sorts. !. It is understood that Minister

Sleep for Children.

In Sweden a committee was, recently
appointed by the government for the
purpose of ascertaining how many
hours children of various ages ought
to sleep in order that they may be
able to study properly.
According to the report forwarded to
the minister of education, children
who are 4 years old should sleep
twelve hours: children who are Z
years old, eleven hours; children who
are 9 years old, ten hours: children
who are from u to IA years old, from
nine to ten hours, and those who are
from IA to 81 years old, from nine to
ten hours 1t further points out that
anaemia and weakness in children are
frequently due to lack of sleep.-New

He Had Something to Say.

A well-known surgeon was impart-

dozen students who accompanied him
in his rounds. Pausing at the bedside
of doubtful case, he said:
"Now, gentlemen, do you think this
is or is not a case for operation?"
One by one the students made their
diagnosis and all of them answered in
the negative.
"Well, gentlemen, you are all
wrong" said the wielder of the free

ate tomorrow"

STATE RAILROAD MAP.
Many New Features Introduced In This
Years Publication.

Railroad Commissioner Graham
L. Rice has received from the pub
Usher, and started to distribute the
new Wisconsin railroad map, which
the railroad commissioner issues
every two years. There are $4,000
maps which will be sent gratis to
any applicant SO long as they last.
Mr.. Rice now has about 1000 let
tiers requesting maps, some of which
come from Paris, Berlin and Japan.
The maps cost the state about 80
cents apiece, and the expense of
mailing them.
About twenty lakes in northern
Wisconsin which have never been
named in any of the former maps
were this year christened after some
of the prominent senator's, some of
them being named Lake Whitehead,
Lake Miller, Lake Munson and Lake
Burns.
The location of all state institu-
lions and normal schools is another
new feature; as is also the data in
regard to land available for settle
ment in the state-of which there is
$500, 900 acres, owned by corpora
lions, the United States $50, 00C
acres, the Wisconsin Central railroad
4S1, 618, the Northwestern 253, 900,
Omaha 800, 900 and the state 377,

For Wounds From Rusty Nails.

Very often we read or hear of some
one who has met with the accident of
having a rusty nail thrust into his foot

cacy, and certainly it might be tested
without much trouble, and no danger.
