WINNING GOLDEN OPINIoNs.-Perhaps
no man living has won more golden opln-
ions than DR.. Walker, as the enormous
and widely increasing sale of his Califor-
mia Vinegar Bitters attests. We never
look into one of our exchanges, but there
is a panegyric of the Bitters staring us in
the face. Our readers will say that there
must be reason for all this praise. They
are right. The efficacy of this celebrated
medicine is established by evidence
which it is impossible to doubt. Among
the thousands who have borne testimony
to its excellence, there is not one dissen-
tient voice. In very many phases of in
organic disease IL seems to be unfailing.
All diseases arising from vitiated state
of the blood are surely eradicated by it.
1t is an efiectual remedy for pulmonary
complaints, bilious, remittent and inter-
mittent fevers, rheumatism and dyspep-
sia. Itpurges the body of all unhealthy hu-
mors, gives tone TO the system, and where
the vital powers are enfeebled, restores
their functions TO vigorous and healthy
action. All this ii does the more effec-
tuIlly because its operations is not inter
fered with by the presence of alcohol.
The Vinegar Bitters is perfectly free from
any such hurtful ingredient. We have
always believed that plants contained the
true remedies for disease, and all the
remedies necessary. DIR. Walker is on
the line of real progress, and we hope
that he will not rest on his present dis
coveries.

Buying a Horse.

FIRST, acquire knowledge of horses, so
as to know coed horse when you see
one that is a model There is more
money lost and more honest men defraud-
ed in buying and selling of horses than in
any other product of the farm. For the
last twenty years have had all sorts and
shapes of horses, from the pony to the
Shanghai, and the greatest weight in the
least bulk is the animal for service. A
horse weighing from /, 100 to 1, 400 pounds
is large enough for farm work. You must
understand what you want an animal for,
before you go to buy. One minute is
long time enough to examine the standing
points of a horse These are: A good
lively eye, inclined to hazel, and pleas
ant countenance; flat leg and open foot;
shoulder set rather back, and thin at the
withers; short back, and no objection if
it is slightly arched; the proper shape of
the hinder parts depends on what you
wish the horse to perform.
The prevailing blemishes are blindness,
or weak eyes, ringbone, SPAWN, hoof-
bound, curbed or thorough pinned, stifled,
etc., all of which an expert observer will
detect in one minutes time. The heaves
is the most difficult to detect, as that

An Indian Grave.

OUR second days march brought US to
the Saline River, where we encamped for
the night. From our camp ground we
could see on a knoll some two miles dis
tant a platform or scaffold erected, which
resembled in somewhat one of our war
signal stations. Curious to discover its
purpose, determined to visit it.
Taking with me Comstock and few
soldiers. soon reached the point, and
discovered that the object of my curiosity
and surprise was an Indian grave. The
body, instead of being consigned to
mother earth, was placed on top of the
platform. The latter was constructed of
saplings, and was about twenty feet in
height. From Comstock I learned that
with some of the tribes this is the usual
mode of disposing of the body after
death. The prevailing belief of the In
dian is that when done with this world
the spirit of the deceased is transferred
to the ahappy hunting ground" where
he is permitted to engage in the same
pleasures and pursuits which he preferred
while on earth. To this end it is deemed
essential that after death the departed
must be supplied with the same equip
ment and ornaments considered necessary
while in the flesh. In accordance with
this belief a complete Indian outfit, de-
pending in extent upon the rank and i'm
portance of the deceased, is prepared. and
consigned with the body to the final rest
ing place.
The body found on this occasion must
have been that of a son of some impor-
tant chief it was not full grown, but ac-
companied with all the arms and adorn-
ments usually owned by warrior There
was the bow and CULVER full OF steel
pointed arrows, the tomahawk and scalp
ing-knife, and red clay pipe with small
bag full of tobacco. In order that the
departed spirit should not be wholly de-
pendent upon friends after his arrival at
the happy hunting ground, he had been
supplied with provisions, consisting of
small parcels containing coffee, sugar,
and bread. Weapons of modern struc-
ture had also been furnished him, a re-
volver and rifle, with powder and ball
ammunition for each, and a saddle, bride,
and lariat for his pony. Added to these
was supply of wearing apparel, embrac
ing every article known in an Indians
toilet, not excepting the various colored
paints to be used in decorating himself
for war. A handsome buckskin scalping
pocket, profusely ornamented with beads
completed the outfit. But for fear that

depends upon the treatment the animal
has had for the week previous. The
thumps, or palpitating of the heart, may
be detected easily by moving and excit-
ing the horse, and stopping him suddenly.

depends on how he has been used until
he is six years old; if sound then, he is

yet. Judging the age of horse by his
mouth is very uncertain. You can tell to
a certainty within one year until he is six
years old; then you must Judge from
general appearance. Some judges rely on
the tusk, but some horses never have any
tusk; about the same humber of mares
have tusks as horses that have none
Some men will tell you that they know
the age of horse by the jaw, or the
wrinkles about the eye, or by the joints of
the tail. You might as well say that you
know the age of man by the wrinkles in
his face. The wearing of the teeth de
pends upon the general health and lungs
of the animal. Bad teeth follow diseased
lungs.
In purchasing horse, rely upon your
judgment, and when you trade, do moi
ask neighbOr, as every man ought to
know his own business. If there is much
talking to be done, let the other do it.

lieve, dies of hunger for kind COM
mendation. Many a child starving for
the praise that a parent should give; runs
off eagerly after the designing fattery OF
others,
To withhold praise where 1t Is due Is
dishonest, and in the case OF chlld such
a course often leaves stinging sense OF
injustice. Motives of common Justice as
we'll as a regard for the future of the
child should influence the parent to give
generous praise for all that deserves 1t.
OF course there is difference in the con-
stitution of children. Some can not bear
so much praise as others, and some need
great deal.
1t-should never be indiscriminate. We
remember wonderful woman who taught
school In one village until she had edu-
Gated part of three generations. She
was one of the most successful of teach
ers. But her success lay in her gift of
praising with discrimination. A bad boy
who was good scholar got praises of his
brilliancy sandwiched between her admo-
nitions for his bad behavior, and SO was
won to better life, and we recall good
girl who had no gift of learning rapidly,
but who was saved from utter despair by
the praise she got for her untiring indus

Change of Seed.

IThas long been the practice of some of
our farmers in the Middle States to occa-
sionally procure seed potatoes and grains
from more northerly localities. Oats and
potatoes in particular appear to be more
perfectly developed in cold climate than
in a warm one, and they retain in meas
ure their inherent vigor for year or two
after removal to less congenial soil and
climate. Hence the importance of fire.
quent change of seed.
We are not prepared to assert that the
apparent deterioration could not in a
measure be prevented by proper culture,
but the well-known fact that a change
does take place is sufficient to show that a
new importation of seed is occasionally
needed Many of the farmers in this vi
cinity have proved by years of expert
ence that it pays Them handsomely to
buy their seed potatoes annually in more
northern markets, even if they have to
sell those raised by themselves at much
less price, as the increase in yield and
quality of the product of northern seed
more than counterbalances the extra cost.
In growing sweet potatoes we are COM
PEELED to take the reverse course, and
procure tubers for planting from the
South.
The same principle should be applied to
many other vegetables, cereals and fruits,
especially to the ANIMALS and blennals
Melon seed from the South will usually
produce earlier fruit, and often of larger
and better quality, than that raised at the
North. There is also difference in the
climate on the same parallels of latitude,
and an exchange of seed between the
Eastern and Western States would be
beneficial to both sections. There is far
less of this interchange of products of the
soil than there should be in these days of
rapid transit and cheap transportation.
We are very certain that if our horticul-
turists and agriculturists would study
more closely the climatic effect upon
vegetation, they could turn the knowledge
obtained to valuable account, not only 20
themselves, but to science.-New York

Praise Children.

There is an old superstition that praise
is TOO good thing to be given to children;
that it is too rich for their mental and
moral digestion. Some parents are SO
afraid that child will grow proud that
they never praise him, and this course is
often disastrous. 1t is apt to produce either
too much selfassertion-for self-assertion
is legitimate outgrowth of the withhold
ing of commendation TO which one is en-
titled-or to engender self-distrust or
melancholy hopelessness of disposition.
Praise is sunshine to child, and there
is no child that does not need it, 1t is
the high reward of ones struggle to do
right. Thomas Hughes says that you
can never get mans best out of him
without praise. You certainly can never
get child's best out of him without
praise. Many a sensitive child, we be-
