The human hand has often been taken
to Illustrate Divine wisdom, and very we'll
But have you ever examined your horses
hoof? 1t is hardly less curious in its
way. Its parts are somewhat less COM
plicated, yet their design is simple and
obvious. The hOof is not, as it appears
to the careless eye, mere lump of insen-
sible bone, fastened to the leg by joint.
It is made up of a series of thin layers or
leaves of horn, about five hundred in
number, and nicely tied to each other,
and forming filling to the foot itself
Then there are as many more layers, be-
longing to what is called the coffin
bOne," and fitted into this. These are
elastic. Take quire of paper and in
sert the leaves one by one into those Of
another quire, and you will get some idea
Of the arrangement of the several layers.
Now, the weight Of horse rests on as
many elastic springs as there are layers
in his four feet-about 1900; and all this
is cOntrived, not only for the conveyance
Of his own body, but for whatever bur
dens may be laid on him.

Cleansing Clothes.-Dissolve two
pounds of soap in three gallons of water
as hot as the hand can bear. To this add
one tablespoonful of turpentine and three
of aqua ammonia, the mixture to be well
stirred. Soak the linen clothes in this
two Or three hours, taking care to keep
the boiler tightly closed. Then wash and
rinse il the usual way. Add for the sec
ond use Of the preparation, half as much
turpentine and ammonia as at first. Both
of these possess strong defensive qualities
without any injurious effect The smell
of both will disappear by the time the
clothes are dry. The use of this mixture
makes rubbing On the board unnecessary
and will not remove the color from
calicoes.-Neo0 York Tribune

Cheap and Good Boiled Pastry.-An
excellent substitute for the common sort
of boiled pastry for dumplings and rolls
is made thus: Take three pints of sifted
flour, a teaspoonful of salt and a pinch
Of soda; pour upon these boiling hot
water, stirring all the time, until it be-
comes dough just stiff enough to roll,
and to roll thin. Some sweetened stewed
fruit having been previously prepased,
proceed just as you do with other pastry,
1t is important that the whole process be
expeditiously managed. A pot of water
should be already boiling, into which to
put the roll. Allow only half an hour
for the boiling. Besides economy, the
end to be subserved by this recipe is to
furnish with desert delicate persons and
children who could not digest rich food.
