FoUNDER.-I send you recipe for
founder, which, having used for five years,
know to be too valuable to keep from the
public. One tablespoonful of pulverized
alum thrown we'll back in horses mouth
just Us soon as you find out he is founder
cd Keep from water during the day
In every case that have tried it, it has
proved sure cure. A friend of mine
had a young mare he thought a great
deal of. We were out in the country and
drove pretty fast. On coming home lie
told the boy to feed her little corn; he
gave her good feed of corn and after
wards some oats. In the morning she was
badly f0undered. l gave her dose oe
alum as above, and no water till night;
next day you would not have known it
The above is worthy of trial 4; but it is
better not to feed or water your horse
q Shen hot by hard driving.-Rurat World.

"VisibIe Admixturee- The SUI
DreIne Court.

With customary revolutionary reck-
lessness and disregard of forms, usage
and substance, when necessary for party
purposes, the Supreme Court of Ohio,
upon mere application for leave to file
petition in error in a made up case,
have decided the recent "Visible Admix-
ture Act" of the Legislature, unconstitu-
tional. The partisan course pursued by
the Supreme Court shows the fix
ed purpose of the Republican lead
ers to force negro suffrage, as far as
possible, on the people of Ohio,
in spite of their wishes and votes, and
of the fifty thousand majority against
it last fall. We accept the issue and
will fight it out on that line all summer
and fall. The irregular action of the
Court deserves the severest censure; but
we forbear in consideration that the
ablest, wisest and most prudent and
most brilliant Legislature which ever
assembled in the State, did not provide
that the act should not take effect till
the first Monday of October, or that pc
titions in error in cases under the act,
should be filed as of course, and the
cases heard only in their regular order.

The Candy Question : Fern VS.
p BPecher.

Oh, Mr.. Beecher that you should re-
commend candy" or "sugar plums." it
is all the same, for the youngsters.
That you should be quoted through the
length and breadth of the land, as hav-
ing done so, to the delight of these
youngsters, and the candy merchandise
the dentists, and the doctors generally |!
To be candid, I am ashamed Of you.
Do you suppose that you are the only
grandparent in the land2 The only low
ing, the only proud grandparent? 1 am
a grandparent. can love as hard as
you can. 1 can show as bewildering a
grandchild as you can. 1t is just as
hard for me to say no to that grandchild
as it is for you to say no to yours; ex-
cuse mel can do it. She is five years
old, but never touches candy. When
she was three, lady in an omnibus gave
her red and whits peppermint stick,
and she turned to me and asked "if it
was not pretty toy.' She
knows not that candy is to eat !;
but when it is given to her, whether in
my presence or not. she says, 81 am not
allowed to eat candy" Meantime she
loves beefsteak, she loves potatoes. she
drinks milk and eats bread, with relish
that candy-fed children never know
Either you are very right or I am very
wrong. You see l am very touchy on
this subjeet.having worn out several pens
and distributed much ink in crusade
against it; and here you in the Ledger,
right under my very nose, with one frisk
of your magic pen cover me with indel-
ible ignominy. tea
"Mr. Beecher says children should
have candy" and what is more, he
thinks they should be brought to be good
by it Oh, fe!
Well now l reply: Mr.. Beecher is
man. If his grand-child has the stom-
ach-ache, it is the women of the family
who will soothe it, and bear its cries and
its wakeful nights. If the little teeth
prematurely decay and ache, it is the
woman who will accompany it to the
dentists for the heart-rending wrench of
cold iron. Mr.. Beecher, in short, deci-
ded that candy question from mans
standpoint. He took the popular side
of the question with the children, who
will always shout hosana to him for the
same. But, my dear sir, the mothers
who, going home after shopping through
Broadway, stop each day for the poison
Gus parcel of sweets for Johnny and
Susy, need restraint, not encouragement
from you. They "can't imagine what
ails Susy or Johnny, to be so fretful," :"
after eating it. OF course they never
for moment suppose it to be candy
Didn't they eat candy? And are they
buried yet? 1 ask another question !:
What is the state of their teeth and
digestion to-day? What their powers
of endurance as mothers ? What. in
short, do they annually contribute to
enable the fat family doctor to ride in
his carriage and live in Fifth avenue !?
That's what 1 want to know.-Fanny
