Uncle Zeke's Practical Joke.

Some years ago, there lived ia one of our
large cities an eccentric character known
as Uncle Zeke, who never lost q chance O!
perpetrating practical joke. Any place OF
occasion suited him, provided he could make
his point Oae fine Sunday be repairo to
fashionable church, some time after the
services had commenced, and as there was
not seat vacant, he took prominent posi-
ton in the centre aisle, where he stood bolt
upright, with bis high stove pipe hat capped
tightly en- his bead OF course be attracted
much attention, and very soon the sexton, a
man for whom Uuclo had an especial dislike,
cfept up to hin and whispered that he take
off his hat.
.'That's agiu my principles said Uncle
Zeke
Il can't help that" said the sexton i'm
patiently, "you must take it off"
But won't" replied Uncle Zeke.
Then shall take it off for you," said
the sexton, who was becoming very nervous
on account Of the attention this whispered
colloquy bad occasioned
"All right" said Uncle Zeke; "you kin
take II Off. That amt agln my principles"
The sexton thereupon took hold of the
rim of Uncle Zake's hat and dexterously
lift it off his head. But what was the re.
spectacle sections horror when about two
quarts Of hickory nuts rolled out of his hat
and went gathering and banging over the
church floor.
And that was Uncle Zake's joke on the

Indian Sagacity.

A Spanish traveller met an Indian In The
desert; they were both on horseback. The
Spaniard, fearing that his horse, which wal
none of the best, would not hold out to the
end of bis journey, asked the Indian, whose
horse was young, strong and spirited, to ex
change With him. This the Indian refused
The Spaniard, therefore, began quarrel
with him. From words they proceeded te
blows The aggressor being we'll armed,
proved too powerful for the native. He
seized his horse, mounted him, and pursued
his journey.
The Indian closely followed him to the
nearest town, ard Immediately went and
complained to the nearest Judge. The Span
lard was obliged to appear and bring the
horse with him He treated the Indian as
an inpostor, affirming that the horse was
his property, that be had always had him in
his possession, and that he had raised him
from colt.
There being no proof to the contrary, the
judge was about Diminishing the parties, when
the Indian cried out
''The horse is mine, and Pll prove it,"
He Immediately took off his mantle and
with it instantly covered the head of the AMI
NAL. Then he addressed the Judge:
"sSnce this man affirms that he has raised
this horse from colt, command him to tell
of which Of his two eyes he is blind"
The Spaniard, who would not seem to
hesitate, Instantly answered:
"Of the right eye"
HE is neither blind of the right eye,"
replied the Indian, "nor of the left"
The judge being convinced by proof SO
ingenious and decisive, decreed him the
horse, and the Spaniard to be punished as
robber.

Poetry.
The Lost Sheep.

There were ninety and nine that safely lay
In the shelter of the fold :;
And one was out on the hills away,
Far off from the gates of gold
Away on the mountains wild and bare
Away from the tender Shepherds care
'Iord, thou hast here the ninety mine,
Are they not enough for Thee ?'
But the Shepherd made answer, ''This of mine
Has wandered away from me;
And, although the roads be rough and steep,
60 to the desert to find my sheep"
But none of the ransomed ever knew
How deep were the waters crossed;
Nor how dark the night that the Lord passed
through,
Ere He found His sheep that was lost.
Gut in the desert He heard its cry,
Sick, and helpless, and ready to die
fLord, whence are those blood drops all the way
That mark out the mountains track?"
f'They were shed for one who had gone astray
Ere the Shepherd could bring him back"
"Lord, whence are thy hands so rent and torn. !"
"They were pierced tonight by many thorn -
And all through the mountains, thunder rivep,
j And up from the rocky steep,
There rose a cry to the gates of heaven,
''Rejoice, have found my sheep!"
A nd he angels echoed around the throne,
"Rejoice for the Lord brings back his own! -

THE HORSE EpIDEMIc.-T disease is

bic are light hacking cough general dull.
ness, cold ears and legs, and indisposition to
move, and watery discharge from the pos
trils. At first the nasal membrane is pale,
but as the disease advances it becomes high
ly colored, and the mucous discharge
changes to a greeniah yellow; the pulse
grows more rapid, the throat sore, the
breathing difficult, and at last the lungs are
fatally involved 1t is evidently contagious,
and the best kept horses are liable to it, as
appears from its development among the
horses of the Toronto and Montreal fire
brigades; but it is found to be most preva.
lent and fatal among animals i'll kept and
exposed much to iucement weather
1t is not necessarily fatal, but must be
treated on its first appearance by giving tho
animal absolute rest, with warmth, dryness
and soft food, aided by occasional doses of
medicine-such as veterinary surgeons use
as ferbifugss and aperients. It is said to
be safer, however, to be very spariDg with
cathartics and rely chiefly on mashes to keep
the bowels right. Reports of its effects arc
wanting to enable us to compare its fatality
with that of the epidemic catarrh which
ragged among the horses in 1878. AS far
as we can learn, however, the chief damage
results from the fact that, to save the life OF
the animal attacked, it is necessary to give
him entire rest and good nursing from the
first symptom throughout the long period of
his slow recovery.
