Sleep Should Be Undisturbed.

People are beginning to realize that
sound sleep isn't obtainable in a bed
that rattles or squeaks or that shocks
the nerves into semi-wakefulness by
unusual slippings of the springs or un-
expected creakings. The advent Of the
separate bed and the banishing Of the
double bed into the limbo Of warming
pans and nightcaps is a distinct ad-
vance from the standpoint Of hygiene
sanitation and more rational sleeping
habits. When separate beds, or, bet.
ter still, separate sleeping chambers,
are in universal use, men and women,
especially nervous men and women,
and delicate children, will get a good
deal more sleep than they do at pres.
emit; they'll derive more benefit from
the sleep they do get. All this will
make it easier FOR them to do with con-
siderably less sleep than they now re-
Quire.

And then the young man found his

licitously.
That's very kind. It is not serious

GOVERNOR HOARD.

The death of former Governor w
D. Hoard at Fort Atkinson removes a
prominent figure in Wisconsin. He
was 80 years old and is survived by
his widow, three sons and one daugh-
ter. With three others Mr.. Hoard es-
tablished the Wisconsin Dairymen' S
association at meeting held in Wa
tertown in the old Lindon House. He
was elected governor in 1888 and was
renominated, but went down to de-
feat in 1.-The Little Red Schoolhouse'
campaign. After retiring from public
life, he devoted most of his energies
to the upbuilding of his two papers,
the Jefferson County Union and
Hoard's Dairyman, and to the devel-
opment of his dairy farm, near Fort
Atkinson. The presidency of the Wis
consin commission of the st. Louis
fair and the presidency Of the board
of regents at the University of Wis
consin were the only positions of a
public nature he held after his retire
ment as governor.
Half a century ago Governor Hoard
was a we'll known figure in Water
town. He was engaged by John w
Canes, then conducting a music store
here, as a salesman, and his business
took him into the country districts for
the sale of organs, principally, the
piano trade being then in it's infancy.
It was no uncommon thing in those
days to hold concert in a farmers
home in the evening to display the
qualities of the organ left on trial.
Hoard possessed natural wit and a
fund of stories, which went a long
way in contributing to the sale of the
instrument.
Max H. Gaebler of this city was a
competitor of Hoards at the time, be-
ing a salesman for his father who was
a maker of organs, and they had
many clashes naturally, but always in
a good natured way. When Mr.. Hoard
was governor Mr.. Gaebler accident
would do but that Mr.. Gaeble go
home with him for dinner, which he
did. That was Hoard's way. At the
time of which we write, Mr.. Hoard
was as poor as a church mouse, but
in later years became in comfortable
circumstances, but to his credit be it
said the change in his fortunes did
not change his disposition nor his
heart, which always responded to the
call Of charity or distress.

Curinu Spice,

In the Spice islands the cloves are
sometimes cured by being smoked
over wood fire until they assume
deep brown color, when the further
drying is accomplished by the sun.
occasionally the buds are scalded be-
fore being dried. If bright sunny days
prevail artificial heat may be dispensed
with and the buds sun-dried from first
to last. The crop loses about 60 per
cent in drying.

School House Burned.

The school house in joint district
NO. IL, towns of Portland and Water
loo, west of Hubbleton, was destroyed
by fire last week. There was an insur-
ance OF $500, but a new piano, Sec
tlonal bookcase and other furniture on
which there was no insurance, was al
so destroyed. A defective f1ue is be-
l1eved to be the cause. A new school
house to cost $4,000 will be erected.
The one burned was built sixty years
