USES OF DEAD HORSES.

AS soon as the horse is dead, his blood is
sought by the manufacturers of albumen,
and by sugar refiners, and burners of lamp
black. Not drop is allowed to go to
waste. The name and tail are wanted for
hair-cloth sleeves, bow-strings and brushes.
The skin is converted into leather for cart
harness, for boots and shoes, and strong
collars. The hoofs are used for combs,
horn work, glue, and in old times were the
chief source of hartshorn, now obtained
from the gas-house. The flesh is boiled
down in the rendering vat, and much oil
and fat are obtained from it. The flesh
left after all has been extracted from it
that is of any service, sometimes, burned to
be used as manure, or is worked up into
heterogeneous compounds, such as the eva
nidee to be used by the photographer in
taking our pictures. The stomach and
intestines make valuable strings and cords
for musical instruments, and out of the
bones, SO many articles are manufactured
that it is almost impossible to make out
complete list of them. Among them are
buttons, toys, tweezers, knife handles,
rulers, cups, dominoes, balls, and the resi-
due from all these is burned into bone
black, to be used by the sugar refiner, who
puts in second claim OIL the dead horse;
and some part of the backbone is burden
white, to be used by the assayer in testing
gold, and, when the assayer and refiner
have finished with it, it is converted into
super phosphate, to serve as a valuable
manare on our land. The teeth are used
as substitutes for ivory, and the iron shoes,
if not nailed over the door to insure good
fortune to the household, are worked up
into excellent wrought metal. Some por-
ton of the boneblack is converted into
phosphorus fol the manufacture Of matches,
and lately valuable bread preparation is
made of the phosphate, and medicines are
prepared for the cure of iconsumptives.

WHAT TO DO WHEN You ARE IN TROUBLE.
Don't try to quench your sorrow in rum
or narcotics. If you begin this, you must
keep right on with it, till it leads you to
ruin; or if you try to pause, you must add
physical pain and consciousness Of degre-
dation to the sorrow you seek to escape
Of all wretched men, his condition is the
most pitiful who, having sought to drown
his grief in drink, awakes from his de-
bauch with shattered nerves, aching head
and depressed mind, to face the same
trouble again. That which was at first
painful to contemplate will, after drink,
seem unbearable. Ten to one the fatal
drink will be again and again sought till
its victim sinks a hopeless pitiful wreck.
Work is your true remedy, If misfor-
tune hits you hard, hit you something else
hard; pitch into something with will
There's nothing like good, solid, absorb
ing, exhausting work to cure trouble.
If you have met with losses, you don't
want to lie awake thinking about them
You want sweet, calm, sound sleep, and to
eat your dinner with appetite. But you
can't unless you work. If you say you
don't feel like work, and go loafing all
day to tell Dick and Harry the stories of
your woes, you'll lie awake and keep your
wife awake by your tossing, spoil her tenn
per and your own breakfast the next morn
ing, and begin to morrow feeling ten times
worse than you do to-day.

THE POLE CAT.

My friend did you ever examine the fra
grant pole kat closely?
Iguess not; they are a kritter that won't
bear examining with a microscope.
They are butiful beings, but oh! how
deceptive.
Their habits are phew, but unique.
They bid their houses out of earth and
the houses have but one door tew them,
and thrt IL front door.
When they enter their houses they don't
shut the door after them.
They are called pole kats bekause it is
not convenient few kill them with klub,
but with pole, and the longer the pole
the more convenient.
Writers on natral history, disagree about
the right length Of the pole tew be used,
but would suggest that the pole be about
365 feet, especially A he wind is in favor
of the pole kat.
l hav kaught skunks in trap. They
are easier tew git into trap than tew git
out of it.
III IdhliS tnem OuI oV Il Trap sTale JUG
ment prst be had not tew shake them up:
the more yu shake them up the more am
brosial they are.
One pole kat in a township is enuff,
espeshily if the wind changes once in a
awhile.
! A pole kat's skin is with dollars in
| market after if is skinned hut If is with
3 dollars and fifty cents tew skin him.
This is one way tev make 10 shillings on
| a wet day.-Josh Billings.

Why Everybody Ought to Vote for
Greeley.

The principal argument in favor of Gree
ley is that he was a secessonist at the
beginning of the war, and that hence
Southern Democrats ought to take trip
to Baltimore to swell the ranks that are
needed to shout for him in order to convey
the impression that he, above all others, is
the man the whole people want to be Pres
ident. The difference between the kind of
argument used in the South and that made
to do service in the North is worthy of
note. The South ought to vote for Gree
ley because he declared that secession
should be permitted; the North ought to
vote for him because he has been such 4
prominent Republican; the free-lovers
ought to vote for him because he has been
a Fourierite; the Spiritualists ought to
vote for him because he has been Spirit
ualist; protectionist ought to vote for him
because he has been protectionist; free
traders ought to vote for him, because, if
made President, he promises to sacrifice
the veto power in their favor; farmers
ought to vote for him, because he is a bad
farmer; printers ought to vote for him,
because he is a miserable ype-setter; tenn
perance men ought to vote for him, because
he has advocated prohibition; tipplers
ought to vote for him, because he has
stopped talking about temperance out of
Difference for them; and lastly, reuegades,
above all things, ought to vote for him,
because he is renegade. There seems to
be good many reasons why everybody
should vote for Greeley. If there is any
small faction in the country that he has
not been part of, it is because he has not
lived long enough.

Child Of the Sun, effulgent summer comes.
In pride of youth; and felt through natures
depth.
He comes attended by the sultry hours,
And ever tanning breezes on his way;
While from his ardent look the turning

Averts her bashful gaze, and earth and
skies,
All smiling, to his hot dominion leaves.
IT'S noon; and vertical the sun
Darts on the head direct his forceful rays.
Der heaven and earth, far as the ranging
eye
Can sweep, a dazzling deluge reigns; and
all
From pole to pole is undistinguished blaze.
