Coffee For the Tnebriate.

A traveller has made the observation
that coffee drinking people are very
seldom given to drunkenness. In Bra
iii, for instance, where coffee is grown
extensively and all the inhabitants
drink it many times day, intoxication
is rarely seen. The effect is not only
noticeable among the natives, but the
foreigner who settles there, though
possessed of ever such passion for
strong drink, gradually loses his liking
for alcohol as he acquires the coffee
drinking habit of the Brazilian.

Forgot Something.

1t was in a hotel, and girl of sweet
sixteen had left the table, at which her
parents were still seated, and had gone
the entire length of the dining room,
when she paused in the doorway, and
her fresh young voice cut the air with
the word:
"Mawr
"Wen?" replied her NAV" shrilly.

Farms and City Property In and About
Lodi. Wis


Last spring we were among the people
of Edgerton and spoke to many about
prices OF land about Lodi. We have
farms of finest quality, nicely located,
with good buildings, telephone and R. F.
D., good schools, and churches of all de-
nominations accessible, located from one
to six miles from Lodi with prices rang
ing from $50 to 800 per acre. S75 per
acre will buy better farm in the vicin-
ity of Lodi than 800 will buy in the
vicinity of Edgerton. We have few
farms north of Lodi, lighter in soil,
little sandy, that can be sold for So to
$50 per acre, is little quicker soil and
produces fairly.
Lodi is now known to be among the
best tobacco sections in the state. Mr..
Joyce of Edgerton was among us this
spring and will tell you this is true. Two
dollars and 66 cents for the round trip
from Edgerton to Lodi. We show lands
and entertain you at hotel Free Our
city is modern and our property reason
able. We will be glad to have you with
us. Write or phone when you will come.

A0 Ant Headline.

An English weekly, speaking of head
lines, tells of an excellent one which
appeared over story of the Pigott
forgery. In that case one of the de-
vices by which Sir. Charles Russell
brought the unfortunate forger to bay
was by getting him to write the word
"hesitancy." In the forged letter the
word was misspelled "hesitency." The
day the flight of Pigott was announced
an editor suggested the headline, 1.-The
Man Who 'Hesitetes' Is Lost" and it
was SO excellent that it was immedi-
ately put in type.

Eagles I'm the Tennessee Mountains


There are many eagles in the Ten
nessee mountains, and consequently
there are many mountaineers who are
expert catchers of the young eagles.
These reap rich rewards in return for
their perilous risks and adventures,
and some of them receive as much as
$1,000 for a single years catch. The
keen eyed hunters watch the nests I'M
til the young are Matched and then,
patiently waiting for the mother bird
to leave in search for food, make short
work of the capture, while the mother
bird is invariably shot to death upon
her return to the nest and in her fren-
zied search for her young. Bolder
hunters than these make attacks at
night while the less experienced use
snares and nets, Il method, however
in a majority of cases, unsuccessful.

Cast Iron.

BY altering the rate of cooling the
strength of iron can be greatly changed,
and the test bars are often run sepa-
rately from the casting and cooled
quicker, so that they usually have
greater strength, sometimes more than
twice as much. Separately cast test
bars are always stronger than those
cast on the castings itself, and Of the
latter the one nearest the heaviest part
Of the casting is always the weakest.
The remedy, as above Indicated is
simple when the false witness has
once been pointed out.
