Every family kept a shoe bench, and I can remember what a stir there was in the house. when father came in and said, “Wife, old Sam Nelson will be here tomorrow.” Then, the old bench had to be brought down from the garret and everything put in readiness for the coming of the shoe man. “Early in the morning of the next day he would be seen coming down the hill with his bag of tools and lasts on his back, and by nine o’clock' he would be busy at work. “He brought with him patterns for the top of the shoe, and these had ‘to. be as carefully’ measured as your little dresses. After the shoe was cut the shoe man carefully fitted the pattern on the last, a different last being necessary for each indi- vidual. Then he would punch holes all along the edge with his sharp little awl and the shoe was ready to sew. “All of us children crowded about while he was doing this. He would sew the shoe with double waxed end using pig's bristles fastened at; each end for needles.

The question is said to be of par- ticular interest to the county attor- neys, net all of whom are said to; favor the present measure. There is said, also to be considerable dis- | satisfaction among the members of the Minnesota bar at large with the present law prohibiting capital pun-} ishment. When the measure was being dis-! cussed by the legislature, the county | attorneys recommended, in, lieu of abolition, a law which would leave! it to the jury in each case to decide whether a convicted murderer shall be executed or imprisoned for life. They are said to be more firm now than before in their belief. Other questions, all of a legislative nature but generally growing out of routine business, will be discussed! at the meeting. Recommendations also will be formulated, to be submitted to the next legislature. FOR SALE. Pair of Gray mares 6 and 10 years old, both bred to our large Percheron stallion. Weight 3,000 pounds..
