SALTAND ASHES FOR HORSES. Those keep
ing horses should, twice week, throw in a
handful to each of salt and ashes. Mix them
by putting in three parts Of salt to one of ashes.
Horses relish this, and it will keep their hair
soft and fine. It will prevent bots, collie etc.
A little ground sulphur mixed with salt and
ashes, and given once in two or three weeks,
is also beneficial. All domestic animals will be
thus benefited.

INFLUENCE OF THE SMILE IN GIVING BEAU
TY TO ExPREssIoN.-A beautiful smile is to the
female countenance what the sunbeam is to the
landscape. 1t embellishes an inferior face and
redeems an ugly one. A smile, however should
not become habitual, insipidity is the result;
nor should the mouth break into smile on one
side, the other remaining passive and unmoved,
for this imparts an air Of deceit and grotesque-
ness to the face. A disagreeable smile distorts
the line Of beauty, and is more repulsive than a
frown. There are many kinds of smiles, each
having distinctive character-some announce
goodness and sweetness-others betray sarcasm,
bitterness and pride-some soften the counte-
brighten it by brilliant and spiritual VITALITY es
Gazing and pouting before mirror cannot aid
in acquiring beautiful smiles half so we'll as to
turn the gaze inward, to watch that the heart
keeps unsullied from reflection of evil and il
lumined and beautifed by sweet thoughts

standing at the eventide over the grave of one
dearest to him on earth. The memory of joys
that were past came crowding on his SOUL
''And is this, said he, ''al that remains of one
so loved and SO lovely? I call, but no voice
answers. Oh my loved one will not hear!-
O death memorable death what hast thou
done? Let me bow down and forget my sor-

While he thought thus in agony the gentle
form of Christianity came by. She babe him

were disclosed. He heard the song and trans

number around the throne. There were the
spirits Of the just made perfect-there, thespirit
Of her he mourned Their happiness was pure,
