Dampness is always associated with the production of soft horn, and dry- ness with that of harder and sounder horn. The nature of the soil has also a further effect on the feet of horses in that on soft or spongy pastunes the wear of the horn is not equal to the rate of its growth, which results in the hoof be- coming. overgrown and misshapen unless attended to. When young horses are reared on dry pastures where the soil is fairly hard, on the other hand, a consid- erable wear of the horn of the hoof takes place, which serves to balance the growth and preserves a proper shape of the foot and a correct proportion between its va- rious parts, Regarding the third point, atrons of the use | poses, and the an early date painted | rouge ax Beerbohm, | " tells us keenest time of her | adies, according 1o | e to squander ail s from Arabia.” » Rome was original- | purposes—to | f the gods on festal | of the Caesars face by the Ro- elves into aid of their paint aid of them, ““two- e shut up in paint the unhappy wite of troduced a celebrat- as Poppaean paste, of bread and fiour d for making of asses.

Battle Creek, Mich, ¥ day a careful breeder should in all cases pay attention to the feet of his foals and young ho and have them attended to and tri when necessary, The degree of attention this point requires varies greatly accord- ing to circumstances. The more unfavor- =ble natural conditions are to the pro- duction of a sound and weil formed hoof the greater must be the care bestowed upon the feet, as will have been gath- ered from the foregoing remarks. Apart | from natural influences which affect the | finger or toe may | 9€velopment and growth of the hoofs of | all foals and young horses in the same marner, the feet of some colts are much mwcre disposed to become outgrown at certain parts, and consequently msfo ed, than is the case with others, even when they are reared under cxactly siin- lar conditions, It must, however, be un- stood that even the greatest care of the growing feet cannot actually mogify the quality and the strength of *he horn, but that only the shape of the hoof can be controlled thereby to a certain extent. The evils of misformed or overgrown hoofs in growing horses are not confined merely to the feet, but often also affect the limbs, causing these to assume ab- normal positions, such as turned-in or turned-out toes. and influencing the slop of the pastern. Hence it is necessary to see that no part of the wall of the hoof becomes overgrown owing to want of wear balancing the growth of horn and to pare the wall or crust in such a manner that a level and even bearing surface and a correct proportion between the toe and the heels of the foot are ob- tained. The proper development of the frog—which is so essential an organ in the horse’s foot—must also be encouraged by insuring that it takes a proper bear- ing on ihe ground and receives its due amount of pressure as a consequence and by refraining from touching it in any way with the drawing knife ‘when in a healthy state. Further, the feet should be examined occasionally to see if thrush is developing, and if this is the case, the frog must be immediately treated for the complaint. Though the presence of thrush may not be attended by any visi- ble inconvenience. and on this account is usually neglected, it inevitably leads to a shrinkage of the frog and frequently to a contraction of the heels. It is difficult to say how far feeding affects the growth or the quality of the horn of the hoof. though it cannot be de. nied that this question also has a bear- ing on the subject uhder discussion to a certain extent. When keeping colts in straw yards or housing them in sheds or loose boxes. dry bedding must always be provided. Dirty litter. soaked with urine and rainwater, has—like damp nasture—a softening action on the horn, this delete- rious influence being greatly increased owing -to the presence of ammonia gen- erated from the urine. Once the horse has attained the age at which he Is put to work, the chief factor in regard to his feet is a correct mode of shoeirg. Though damp still bas a soften- ing effect on the horn of mature horses, feet may and often are spoiled by shoeing. yet the guestion whether a has sound and strong or weak and apen feet devends primarily upon the factors discussed above.—Montreal Herald and Star. The Growing Scarcity of Men. The advantages of the modern Porlia are counterbalanced by an equally large number of difficulties that confront the woman lawyer. Mayor Low’s secretary, James B. Reynolds, is still telling his friends a little fling he had recently at Miss Rosalie Loew, the attorney for the Legal Aid Society. Miss Loew was con- ducting a hearing before the Mayor and called one morning to tell Mr. Reynolds she could not attend the afternoon ses- 50 “I've got to go ovér to Ludlow street and get a man out of jail,” she said by way of explanation. *“Oh,” exclaimed Mr. Reynolds in grave surprise. “Are they really getting as scarce as that New York Times. —_—— He Lacked the Brains. A clergyman was traveling in a mining | country and encountered an old Irishman turning a windlass which hauled up ore | out of a shaft. It was his work to do this all day long. His hat was off, and {he sun poured down on his unprotected ead. “Don’t you know the sun will injure your brain if you expose it in that man- ner?” said the good man, The Irishman wiped the sweat off his forehead and looked at the glergyman, “Do you think I'd be doing this all day it T had any brains?” he said, and then he gave the handle another turn. - moves eastward gets later. Before the circumnavigation of the globe there was no difficulty. When on a Monday the sun stood over London it was Monday noon in London. As the sun moved (to use the popular phrase) west- | ward and stood a little later over Dublin | it became Monday noon in Dublin, and so on until he reached the western limit of the known world. When the sun passed over that limit that was the end of noon for that Monday, and nobody knew what the sun wag doing until he reappeared on the eastern limit of the known world, bringing with him Tuesday morning. It is evident, therefore, that while the sun | was in the unknown abyss between west |and east he dropped the attribute of | making time at all places directly under his rays Monday noon and took to him- self the attribute of making it Tuesday noon. ' As the confines of the world were pushed farther eastward and westward, respectively, the unknown abyss where this change of attribute had to be made got narrower and narrower, until, when the globe was circumnavigated, the place of change became simply a line. This line exists and is the place where the days begin. As the sun crosses this re- markable spot the time' jumps twenty- | four hours onward—from noon on one day to noon on thée next day. The situation of the line has been located quite for- tuitously—namely, by the circumstance whether any given place was first reached | by civilized man journeying from the east or from the west. The discoverer brought with him the almanac whence he came, and if he came from the west the time in the new country would be later | and if he came from the east it would be earlier than the time in the country he came from. America was reached by civilized man i\'o\’uging westward, and China by man | traveling eastward, and the result is that | the line that marks where the days begin | lies between these two, in the Pacific Ocean, and, instead of being a straight | line, zigzags about, dividing islands which | happened to be discovered from the east from those which happened to be discov- ered from the west. There must still be many islands in that ocean where it is not yet decided to which side of the line they belung, and where, if one were put down, one would not know whether it were to-day, to-morrow or yesterday. ‘There must also be many islands there which, never baving been permanently occupied by civilized people, change their day from time to time, so that a ship calling there coming \from China might | calling at the same time from America would arrive on Monday. There must be people living so near tHis line that by°go- | ing a few miles they can leave to-day and | get into to-morrow, or by going back can | find yesterday. How convenient for trou- blesome appointments. Many other curious considerations oc- cur to one, but I have sald enough, I think, to show—what every one does not, | perhaps, realize—that there is a place In | the world where the days begin.—St. James Gazette. | - Thick and Thin Skinned People. ‘“You often hear a man referred to as being thin-skinned, or thick-skinned, as the case may be,” sail the tall barber. ‘A person who is naturally sensitive, whose feelings are easily hurt, or who is | inclined to be excitable over trifles, is thin-skinned, while the thick-skinned fel- low is the one who is callous to public opinion, who won't take a hint and is not easily insulted. Most people regard these expressions as merely describing the char- | acter and traits of a man, but they are | really thore literal than you would think. | They are not altogether figurative. In my { line of work the study of human nature | is almost imperative, and I have found | that the man who is figuratively thin- | skinned is thin-skinned literally. When a | man’s face is tender, and the operation of ; shaving if often painful to him, he is the | sort of man who is known as‘thin-skinned. The same rule applies to the fellow with a face like a plece of castiron. The razor never hurts him; he never winces, and he is the thick-skinned chap upon whom | the opinions of others have absolutely no | effect. There you are, sir. Next gentle- '—Philadelphia Record. L S — ADVERTISEMENTS. ABSORBING PROBLEM 0Of the Present Day. The absorbing problem of to-day is, how | to expend one’s income so as to attain the | best results; that is, get full value for | one’s money. It may truthfully be said that this has been, is, and always will be an absorbing ! problem to those with limited means; but the fact remains that, with the price of living necessities constantly rising one must husband one's resources more care- “rully than ever before if he would live within his income. In saying that prices are rising, we except one -article which has come to occupy a prominent place in the family medicine closet, and that is the specific for piles or hemorrhoids Knawn as Pyramid Pile Cure; this remedy is still sold by druggists at the old prices of fifty cents and one dollar, and these whom this preparation has brought relief and a cure after years of suffering do not need to be told of its merits; others are advised it is the greatest boon ever dis- covered, to all those afflicted with any form of piles; it is in suppository form, is easily applied, reaches the seat of the complaint, and gives immediate relief and a lasting cure. The reader may have tried salves, oint- ments and lotlons without benefit, and feeling that his money has been wasted, resolves to suffer on rather than experi- ment further. The reason for the failure of these treatments is, that they do not reach the seat of the trouble, and hence | do not remove the cause, as does Pyramid Pile Cure. A little book describing piles, their cause and cure, is published by the Pyramid Drug Co., Marshall, Mich., and any one may procure a copy by sending nrame and address to above firm. As showing the estimation in which this remedy is held by the public it may inter- est the reader to know that its sales now exceed those of all other pile remedies | combined. {arrive on Tuesday, while another ship | prices will remain unchanged.

Experts Figure Fifty 0dd Billions for 2250 A. D.. With Majority of Teutonic Stock. ‘Will the world be full of people in the year 22507 Such is the prediction of J. Holt Schooling, who fills six pages of the July Cosmopolitan with figures and diagrams to support this conclusion. According to the best authorities the population of the world was 682,000,000 in 1810, 847,000,000 in 1828, 1,009,000,000 in 1845, 1,391,000,000 in 1874 and 1,483,000,000 in 1586, | This increase was at the rate of 12 per thousand per year from 1810 to 1828; of 10 per thousand from 1828 to 1845; of 11 per thousand from 1845 to 1874, and of 6 per thousand from 1874 to 1886. The average yearly rate of increase during the nine- teenth century was ten persons ver one thousand of population. In the period between 1800 and 1850 the United States grew at the rate of 39 per thousand annually, Russia 14 ver thou- sand, the United Kingdom 13-per thou- sand, Germany 8 per thousand, France § per thousand. In the period between 1850 and 1380 the United States grew at the rate of 25 per thousand annually, Russla 8, the United Kingdom 3, Germany 8, France 2. Counting the whole period from 1800 to 1890, the growth per thousand of population in the United States was at the rate of 28 annually, Russia 11, -the United Kingdom 10, Germany 8, France 3. Mr. Schoolihg places great emphasis on the fact that the Teutonic, or German and Anglo-Saxon, nations, increased in population from 43,500,000 in 1800 to 11,- 000,000 in 1900, while the Latin nations, such as France, Spain and Italy, increased in population from 55,000,000 to only 90,000, - 000. At the same rate of increase the Teutons in the year 2000 will number 671, 000,00 and the Latins 149,000,000. From this Mr. Schooling draws the conclusion that as the past has been with the Latin race, the future is for the Teuton stock, whose modern representatives are the peopies of the United States, Great Britain and Germany. ‘While the most remarkabie instance of filling up during the nineteenth century is in the United States, our density of population is not up to the average popu- lation per square mile in the world at large. We have now 21 persons to the square mile of land, Russia 15, China ‘%, Spain 96, France 186, Germany 263, Italy 289, the United Kingdom 339, Holland 411 and Belgium 572. A density of population double that of Belgium would fill the world with people. There is now in the world 31 persons to the square mile. At the same rate of increase there will be 83 persons to the square mile in the year 2000, 225 in 2100, 609 in 2200 and 1000 persons per square mile in 2250, or an aggregate population in the world of 52,073,000,000. A Missing Coronation Oath. Strange things happen in the world in I spite of best-laid plans of men, but nothing curious has happened in connection with the crowning of our Kings than the mislaying of the corona- tion oath at the coronation of William IV. When the moment arrived for the King to swear to govern the people law- fully the copy of the oath which had been specially prepared for his use was missing from the altar, where it should have been placed, and the only way out of . the dilemma was for the King to sign the oath printed in the book con- taining the order of the service. The fact that he did so is -recorded in an in- teresting note by the primate of the time, which is historic as explaining a remark- | able omission in the coronation roll which is stored somewhere in the national ar- chives. The book in which King Willi: signed his name is still to be seen in manuscript library at Lambeth Palace. St. James Gazette. —_———— Conscience Eased, Pride Humbled. The following story, told of Pere Mon- sabre, the eloquent French preacher, is interesting: One day, just as he was going to preach, a message came to him that a lady wanted to see him. She was worried about an affair of conscience; she felt as if she’'d like to see him, etc. After much waste of time she came to the point. She was given up to vanity. That very morning she had looked into her looking glass and yielded to the tempta- tion of thinking herself pretty. Pere Monsabre looked at her and said ‘etly, ‘Is that all?” hat's all.” “Well, my child,” he replied, “you can go away in peace, for to make a mistake is not a sin.”"—New York World.

As thege has been comparatively little typhold fever in Indianapolis this year, the pres- ence of a few cases of the disease without the fever Is more than usually interesting to the doctors. Two of the cases came from the Acton camp ground. The cause of the disease in these cases Is not stated. At some stages in typhoid cases fever has existed, doctors insist. It may have been at the very beginning, of short duras tion. Some cases of typhold are accoms panied by a low féver instead of temperatures as in typical typhoid fever. Typhoid cases carry all the symptoms of typhold fever except the fever. Doctors say there are probably many cases of ty- phoid that are treated as some other dis- ease because the fever is absent, but the medical profession is becoming better ac- quainted with'the rarer form. —_———————— “The doctor’s all the while grumbling about his patients who won't pay their bill. “I know it.
