She landed in the woods about twenty-five miles back of Rich- land Station, in the town of Redfield. She re- mained in the basket of the balloon suspended in u tree all Thursday night, and jumped oat yesterday morning. As the balloow approached -the earth, the s'rorg carrent of air would drive her back again over the , until, by throwing out ballast, she would rise again and keep on her way. Three times she tried in this te alight in clearings In the woods. At the third trial the current, which was quite strong, drove her back again over the forest, and this time the “#tlantic,” having lost so much gas, refused to in, and settled itself in a lively manner in the top of a tall birch tree, in the town of » On what aro known'as the Osccolo The noblest tree in the forest was first to cateh the silken car with its precions freight, and the Jady found the balloon spread out over the birch sentinel, and herseif swinging in mid-air, about fifty feet from the ground.

Wrap- ping herself in these as best she could, she sat down to “pleasant dreams,” of comfort and convenience at home. The cold awakened her during the night, as she became nearly chilled through. She awoke at 4:30 A. M., and took another survey. Below her she saw what she su were bushes. Throwing out her can- vas it would not reach. Then she tied a rope to the canvas and thought it would answer. She immediately settled the bill for her lodging, and lefc the “Atlantic” on the jirst “down train.” Reaching the end of her rope, about thirty feet, she found the “bushes” to be birch trees about twenty feet in ao.

Marnessing Horses Correctly. When harnessed correctly, a strong horse is a powertul animal; but by an impertect adju ment of the gearing, many strong te: shorn of half their strength, and many a worried more by an improper fit of the harness, or by a decidedly bad attachment to the vehicle they are drawing than by all the service they perform. But few teamsters have ever been tanght how to harness a horse correctly, and iewer still have learned that there is a right way and a wrong way to hitch a team to a carriage. When a harness is taken from a shop, every part should be adjusted to fit the horse that is to wear it. —The back-band shon!d be let ont Pp until it will be neither too long nor too short when the animal is drawing a load. Many a good horse has had a large sore made on his beck simply because the back-band of the harness was buckled up too far. Breeching.—The breechigg should also be aad- Jvsted properly, so that the hore will not secm like a man in @ boy's coat, nor like @ colt wear- ing the harness of n full-grown horse. Coller.—The collar should tit as neatly to the animal's neck as an easy = of shoes set on one’s feet. The collar should never be so Jong that amanean thrust his arm easily b the neck of the animal and the lower end of the collar. Many horscs—especially old ones_when thin in flesh, require collars s small that ther cannot be put over the heads of the horses that wear them. It is of eminent importance that the proprietors of teams should see to such nts, and provide collars that are op at the tep or bottom. Every horse should ha his own collar and harness as much as every man his own boots and coat. Lines.—The lines are often adjnsted im such a anner, that the heads of both horses are away from each other so far that the not travel easily. At other times ¢ drawn too far inward, toward each ‘The lines should be adjusted so that the Js may be held just as far apartas the length of the double whifiletree. Pole.—When a team is attached to a carriage or lumber wagon, the breast-straps, stay-chains that the pol ‘ne allowed to have so much p whangs the arms or shoulders of the te with terrible force, when the team is being drawn over rough ways. ‘Khe neck-yoke straps, or tongue-chains, should be drawn up so as to clevate the —— between the shoulders, where the lateral jerking or thrusting will be received by the gearing on the necks of the animals, rather than against the unprotected arms or shoulders of the team.—S.
