DANGER IN EARLY RISING,
New York Medical Specialist Says
1t COnduces to Madness.
From tba Eocp;faI

III COnOuceS to Madness.
From the Hospital.
All the spiritual descendants of San
cho Panza, that finest eulogist of slum-
Der. should bless the name of DR.. Sell
den Talcott of New York. DR.. Talcott
is a specialist in mental diseases, and
he declares that the habit of early ris-
ing conduces to madness. 1.-The free
and lazy savage" he says, gets up
when he feels ready, and rarely or
never becomes insane" DR.. Talcott's
protest should be considered carefully
by his fellow-countrymen, who even
more than the British. pride them
selves on their active habits. Recently,
we believe. there has been founded in
New York a society whose members
pledge themselves not to take more
than four hours sleep in the twenty
four. 1t would be interesting to follow
the health and life histories of those
who keep this pledge. For we do not
suppose that there is anything dan
gerous in early rising in itself, but
only in the combination Herewith of
going to bed late.
On the whole, it is better to obey the
old proverb, and "go to bed with the
lamb and get up with the lark" But
it is a different thing when one COM
bines the attempt to fulfill the latter
part of the advice with a habit of go
ing to bed with the nightingale. Yet
the increasing strain of business COM
pels early rising in those who would
succeed, while If they want to combine
pleasure with business they will find
it impossible to get to bed before mid
night, or even then, for our amuse-
ments seem to begin and end later
every wear The enerRetic peopla who
go in for this fashion of life are apt
to assure others. and themselves also,
that they do not require much sleep.
and undoubtedly it is possible with
practice to do with much less than the
normal amount of rest. 1t is impor-
tant, however. to remember that such
q habit cannot be INDUCED in without
a corresponding sacrifice of health.

W tuc SCuOOl 1ucSudy mOFQluk Was
very much appreciated by all.
The basket ball game between the
Stevens Point team and the Lincoln
five was a great relief TO the students
from the strain which they underwent
during the week of examination. The
game was an exciting one and was won
by the home five by score of 30 to Is.
The school was much surprised on
Thursday morning when they found
that five windows had been broken the
previous night. The guilty person
should not think the deed a wise one
or joke, as his rank in this world, if
not, yet will be that of the basest.
Yesterday was holiday, it being
Washington's birthday.
The game of basketball between the
Portage highs and the academy team
of Poynette at the armory last Friday
was pretty much one-sided, the visitors
being completely outclassed through
out by the snappy, quick work OF the
local highs. The visitors failed to
make field throw in the entire first
half and made but two scores from free
throws. The final score was so to 90
Portage Register.
1t was expected that the girls first
basket ball team would play with the
Grand Rapids high school girls team
last Friday, but the game was cancel
led because the girls team of that
place played under boys rules. The
teams will probably break up soon as
no outside games can be arranged.-
Wausau Record.
An accident happened in the labora
tory of the high school yesterday af.
ternoon while class was at work on
experiments, which caused consider
able of scare for short time, but
luckily no one was injured. The stu.
dents were experimenting when one
OF them knocked a gallon bottle filled
with hydrochloric acid from it's posi-.
tion on one of the tables, to the floor.
The bottle was shattered to pieces
and the acid was spilled all over the
floor The fumes quickly spread and
almost before the students could get
out of the room it was filed with
them. m.-Menominee Leader.
The principal Of the high school Sc
verely censured the pupils for staying
out for just little cold weather, fol
most every day ten or more pupils are
absent; forty-tive being absent yester.
day morning. He says: THAT the pu.
pills thinking it little cold out-of.
doors will ask his or her mother to
stay out and her consent is given. The
walk is not very long to the school and
when you do get there it is always
warm. Only Two mornings during
this recent cold spell Of four weeks it
was cold and that only in one room
before eight O'Clock. Parents send
your children to school every day

His Support Last
Week.

The Marshfield Times came out last
week in the support of the reelection
OF Congressman Brown. The REPoR.
TER is pleased to note that the news.
papers throughout the district ap.
preciate the good services of Mr.
Brown and are willing to do all in
their power to keep him in Washing.
ton for another two years. The
Marshfield Times says:
Congressman Webster E. Brown,
of Rhinelander, who has SO ably
represented the Tenth Congressional
district, of which Wood and Marathon
counties form part, is candidate
for reelection. Mr.. Brown has filled
his official position in faithful man
ner and has done all in his power fol-
his constituents during his term OF
Office and certainly should receive the
unanimous support Of every repub.
lican in this Tenth diStri ct. We
know of no opposition to Mr.. Brown
and there will probably be none, as
the people of this district appreciate
what he has already done, and know
that he will become more valuable to
the district the longer he remains in
office"

BOY WAS ACCI=
DENTALLY SHOT
While Hunting Rabbits on West
Side Saturday After
noon.
HOWARD NICHOLSON
WAS THE VICTIM
Bullet Entered AbdOmen.-.N0t
Known Whether He Will
Recover.

Howard Nicholson, fourteen years
Of age, accidentally shot himself Sat
urday afternoon at O'Clock while out
hunting in Carey's pasture, near the
box factory. The bullet entered his
abdomen. 1t is Dot known at this
writing whether the boy will live.
Howard and two of his companions,
Alex Jones and James Dixon, went
out rabbit hunting. When they
reached Carey's pasture Howard saw
a rabbit run toward a brush pile. He
aimed his 22-calibre rifle at the rabbit
and pulled the trigger twice without
succeeding in discharging the bullet
He then went to the brush pile and
began hitting it with the butt end OF
the gun, holding the barrel in his
hands. AS result the bullet was
discharged and he was wounded.
Howard ran a few blocks and then
fell to the ground.
His companions went for assistance
at once. He was taken to a neigh.
boris house where his wounds were
examined. Later he was removed to
his home on the west side.
Doctors Ridgman and Waters
are now attending the boy but thus
far have not been able to locate the
bullet.

Numerous Presents Will Be
Given To Lucky Bride and
Groom.
CONTEST OPENS TODAY
lends ON MARCH 81.
First Bonafide Applicant Will
Win.-Conditions Are Very
Simple.

The WOOD COUNTY REPORTER has
decided to provide handsomely for the
first leap year bride and groom who
desire to conform to certain conditions.
The citizens of this city are giving
their liberal support and the venture
will therefore be decided success, pro-
vided that the principals are forth
coming.
To begin with, the wedding presents
will amount to at least three hundred
dollars. This certainly is good
inducement.
"But what must do to become the
possessor of these valuable prizes?"
asks the would-be bride. That is
very simple. Propose to young
man between February % and March
81. If he accepts you, then appear
before notary public and affirm that
you proposed and were accepted and
that you had received no encourage
ment from the man in question to in
duce you to propose. The rest is clear
sailing.
Certainly the couple who is willing
to go forth on the sea of matrimony
under such auspicious circumstances
will be willing to have-a public we'd
ding, that every citizen may have the
opportunity to shower the congratu-
lations. An attempt will therefore
be made to secure the opera house and
the services Of the city band free of
charge.
The REPORTER publishes today an
incomplete list Of the presents and
their donors. More will be added
from time to time. or course anyone
may increase their number OF gifts,
should they SO desire.
