every possible circumstance to his own
account In his STRUGGLES and Tri-

tion OF his ingenuity: To an able. bodied
beggar who. was willing to work, after
putting him into theatrical uniform, he
gave FIVE common bricks, telling him to

take up rapid march from one point to
the other, making the circuit, exohang-
ing his brick at every point, and speak

1t was all one to him, so long as he could
earn his living" the man placed his
bricks and began his round. Half an

fifteen minutes to solemn survey of the

went into the Museum, a dozen or more
persons would buy tickets and follow
him, hoping to crafty their curiosity in

What will be the effect of even temporary

motives-farmers cannot market their produce
boats cannot reach their destination on the
canals bills drawn against western shipments
will be protested-merchants will become
alarmed at the non-appearance of customers
panic will seize the community. and, aside
from the many millions to be lost in the value
of horses the most disastrous unsettling of val

The disease seems to be without precedent.
1t exhibits itself in three forms-Ca Catarrhal,
Rheumatic and Observation-Disclosures - all

To prevent the disease, the well animals
must not now be hard worked. They must
be kept on soft food-like bran-mash
