According to Dr. Frederick B. Percy of the Boston university school of medicine, the least cultur ed and least developed adults need the most sleep, and the higher the intellectual development the more prone one is to dreams. The healthy child of two years passes half its time in slumber. The adult re quires from seven to eight hours of sleep daily, aged persons not more than five or giz hours. Women need, as a rule, more sleep than men. There are persons to whom nine or even ten or twelve hours of sleep are essential, while others seldom sleep more than six out of the twenty-four. Too much sleep is possible. Sleep undisturbed is what we all desire.

They're tighter'n my own skin." "Xow, my son," said mother, in quiet reproof, "don't exaggerate. How can they be tighter than your skin?"

"V Quoor Customs That 8urviv In Spite of Tholr UmUiiiwii. ' , The law has its little supersti tions notwithstanding the preva lent conception of that science as cold, unemotional and severely log ical. For instance, what useful pur- 'pose is served by inserting in a bond, conditioned for the payment of money, . a penal sum of twice the amount of the actual debt? Bonds have been thus drawn since the days of Lord Coke, and tlieJ printed lorms in common use toaay contain the ancient penal clause. I (lv lm lot tor nt onrli it Imnil 111" r "Ir.: 7 oougee is cieuny cuuueu m nwriT the full penal sum on the obliger's default in paying the sum specified in the condition. But lias the obligee, for these two or throe hun dred years, ever been allowed to recover more than the actual debt with interet-.t and costs? By another common practice deeds are made to recite that the grant is made "in consideration of t,he sum of one dollar, good and lawful money of the United States of America, to me in hand paid, the receipt whereof I hereby acKnowl- edize." or some eouivalent formula. The idea that a deed must express a consideration is ineradicable, and equally fixed appears to be ,the su perstition that a consideration ol one dollar is quite as effective as a consideration commensurate with the value of the estate granted. Lawyers learned in the law of real property know better, of course, but such is the popular notion. It is elementary that as between the par ties a deed is perfectly valid with out any consideration at all; other wise there could be no such thing as a conveyance by way of a gift. Why do we begin a will with an invocation to the Deity rind a recital that the testator is "of sound mind md disposing memory?". Does the former aid the testator spiritually, and do'es the latter furnish any evi dence of his testamentary capacity? And why do we so . often insist on attaching a seal opposite the testa tor's signature? Our statutes do not require a will to bo sealed, wherefore the seal is wholly super fluous, as the lawbooks have long advised us. Many generations of lawyers learned in equity pleading have fol lowed the ancient practice of con cluding a bill of complaint with the solemn assurance, "And thus your orator will ever pray, etc." Apparently no modern lawyer knew what the decnudntcd formula meant until recently a well known author ran the thing to its lair among the ancient rolls of the court of chan eery and found that (before it lost its tail) it was a prayer for the health and longevity of the king!, These are only a few of the su perstitions that have survived the. days when the trial by battle ana the criminality of witchcraft were finally eliminated from that law which is our proud heritage and which has been so fondly praised as "the perfection of human reason." Bench and Ear. Salt ths Cow. Cows should be salted regularly, win. ter and summer. Salt la an essential part of the ration even though It may not have much direct food value. Many farmers who otherwise are care ful feeders neglect the salting of their stock, especially in winter. The best plan Is to mix a certain percentage 6f salt In the grnln feed when It Is mixed. A pound and a half of salt per 100 pound of grain Is about right. The salt will make the grain more palnta hie. Hnd one wll not be so apt to neg lect feeding Uny. IMsa wise plan to keep n supply of salt where the cattle II ii reach It wtcnever they are loose. .

Important Points to Consider In tht . Hog Raising Business. While clover I the very best pasture for pig and bogs. 1 set good results iy letting them run on mixed wild grass, writes a Minnesota bog grower in the Orange Jndd Farmer. 1 like white clover and timothy pasture In the spring, then have ready a mixture of outs, barley and rape to turn them on the last of Hay and a rape lot for the latter part of Jury and August It Ih also a good plan to hnve ready a niniill sweet corn Held near nt band. I always sow rape when I cultivate corn the liiHt time, and this mnka a flue rape pasture. After the green corn is cut I open the gates and let the bogs clean up liotb the corn and rape. Pumpkins are a good feed for old bogs late lu the fall. One of the advantages Yorkshire breeds have' over other types Is ,thut they can he marketed at almost any age. With good, liberal treatment they reach prime weights nt six and seven months, weighing 145 to 200 pounds or better. They can be held a little longer and turned o(T at 225 to 250 pounds to advantage. If held a year they can be made to tip the scales at 400 pounds. With extra care they can be made to do lietter thnn thHt, .. There nre many kinks In the bog business. One that I consider Important Is to know and like your bogs If you like them and study them this kink will let you on to all the other kinks In time. Select good stock and use only a pure bred boar of your favorite breed. Then treat this foundation herd well. Put thcra on pasture and give them plenty of pure water and provide com fortable sleeping quarters. Keed a va riety of foods, but do not overfeed. Disinfect troughs and sleeping quar ters and the pigs themselves either by sprlnkllngor dipping. Keep them free at all times from worms. Wood ashes, soot, sulphur and charcoal are good things to keep before the hogs. Do not keep too many bogs together. These things In my experience are the fundamentals of success to the bog business.'
