The brewers IN their conven-
tion at Milwaukee resolved that
they would give their efforts to-

pletely as the ProhIbitionists
would, for there are but few de-

The Normal school which has
been in progress here during the
past eight weeks, closed its work
yesterday, and to day and to-
morrow Superintendent Lamber-
has charge of those who are ap.
plicants for certificates. The
class is large, and we do not envy
either the examiner or the teach

There are puzzles and puzzles
but here is puzzle that puzzles
everybody; Take the mum Der of
your living brothers, double the
amount, ad i to it three, multiply

middle will be the lumber of
living sisters, and the left will
show the mum ber of living broth
ers. Try 1t and see and then tell
why it figures out so.
1t has been frequently sug-
gested and the suggestion is a
good enc, for every farmer to
place his name and the name of
his farm onhis road gate. Notonly
would persons driving to place
more easily find it, but 1t would
add more pleasure and interest
to people driving from place to
place. THIS last result would
have special effect with regard to
well kept and pretty houses. An
observlngperson will seldom pass

A number of subscribers who

thousands of able. e.bodled men

demand for agricultural laborers
Is enormous, owing to the tact

were large, and they have money
IN the bank with which to pay
for the garnering of their har-
