Proper Mode of Feeding Horses.

LET me say word or two, now, in ref.
erence 10 feeding the horse, as bearing
upon the condition of the foot. Every
owner of horse must have observed that
the growth and strength and appearance
of that horses foot is materially affected
by the condition of the horse himself. A
halfstarved horse may have a foot in
jured by deficient nutrition-an over-fed
horse may have foot heated into an in
fiammation. And so dependent is the
foot upon healthy state of the animal
economy, that for the foot alone, if moth
ing else, the diet Of the horse should be
regulated with the utmost regard to his
health.
l am confident that we give our horses
too much grain and too little hay-espe-
cially horses under seven years of age,
who will work with more endurance and
courage on a good supply of hay and a
moderate supply of grain-of the latter
say six quarts of oats and pint of corn
daily. Older horses require and will
bear more grain-but even they want
more hay than is usually given. Every
horse should pass few weeks of every
year without grain--either the first half
or the last half of the winter, whichever
is most convenient. And this mode Of
feeding can be adopted without suspend
ing the animals work.
l have one horse fourteen years old;
which has had this regimen for four
months of every year of his life land
bred him), and he is as smooth, vigorous,
and healthy as a colt-was never out OF
condition-has a sound, smooth foot
was never lame-and has always been in
good driving order. He is good speci-
men of what box stalls, brick floors, tar
ointment, turnips and hay will do for a
horse towards preserving his health and
strength and soundness, and promoting
his longevity.-Dr. Loring, in Mass.

Almost Buried Alive-A- Remarkable
Escape.

In the northern part of the city lives q
carpenter, with his family, who are ma
tives of France, and have been in this
country about eight years. One of their
children is little girl named Mary, and
the subject of this singular story. The
child was born in Paris, and was eleven
years old on the Goth day of June last.
She speaks French, German and English
fiuently, and in conversation exhibits an
uncommon intensity of mental action and
vividness of mental vision. She is of fair
complexion and very beautiful, with lus-
trous eyes, sunny hair, and look Of
spiritual maturity in her countenance.
She has sometimes said that she could see
the forms of persons who have died, and,
as her sincerity could not be doubted, this
Occasioned some alarm in the minds of
her parents. f-t
The health of the child has not been
good for several months, and, on Saturday
morning, three weeks ago, she startled
her mother by saying that she could see
her dead sister Louise, who came near
her In an angel form and spoke to her,
telling her that she would make her we'll
so that she would never be sick any more.
Her mother tried to persuade her to dis.
miss the subject from her mind, but she
could not stop talking, and continued,
describing her sister, saying that she was
standing near, dressed in pure white, her
face bright and shining, her hair illum-
ined with silver light, and golden dew
arops dripping from her wings. She
could also see her dead brother, who came
close to her sisters side. While talking
her strength gave way, and she sank away
~ in death.

Buying Cheap Things.

Only the rich can afford to buy poor
articles. Solomon says, 1.-The destruction
of the poor is their poverty" and thus it
comes about. In the matter of shoes, for
example, a poor man thinks he cannot
afford to pay six dollars for pair of
good shoes, so he buys at three dollars,
and in three months he must buy again !;
four pairs year amount to twelve dol.
lars, whereas the six-dollar pair, made to
order, with fresh sole, perhaps, would
have lasted twelve-month. Just so in
muslins. The handwriting farmers
wife will purchase muslin at twelve or
fifteen cents per yard, when by giving
twenty or twenty-five she would get q
fabric that would wear third longer
ana give double the satisfaction, besides
making immense saving in stitches. In
dress goods, the same rule applies, unless
one intends to buy at every change of
style and variety. When we buy dress.
the purchase is for lifetime, and always
Of the best quality, not the most expen-
sive. but such as will wear and look we'll
as long as thread is left. If one can't
afford to buy the best, let her go without
and save up till she can; then when she
does buy she will have what will suither.
1t is because so many housekeepers buy
poor calicoes, poor muslins, table linen
of inferior quality, cheap clothes for
suits, that they are always hurried to
death with sewing. Children's clothes
wear out so soon that they must evermore
be making new, whereas if the fabric, in
the first place, is of excellent quality and
well made up, it will last two or three
children anc look we'll all the time
Won't you buy some stockingss real nice,
only thirteen cents pair!' said ped
dler at the door the other day. 81 never
dream of paying less than half dollar"
was the prompt reply. just to think OF
darning thirteen.cent stockings! A real
good pair of stockings will need scarce
any darning for year, will wear two or
three years, and then cut over nicely for
the children. Is there any economy in
buying cheap stockings? Only the
rich can afford to buy poor articles.-Er-

The worst forebodings Of the parents
had been realized and they prepared the
body Tor burial. No physician had been
called, as they supposed that death had
already fallen upon their child. 1t was
about ten o'clock in the morning when
the apparent death occurred. The body
was kept till Sunday afternoon about four
o'clock, nearly thirty.six hours, during
which time no sign of returning life had
been noticed. The final look at the re-
mains was taken, the coffin was sealed up
and placed in the hearse, and the little
cortege started for the grave, the parents
folio wing the hearse in carriage.
After proceeding some distance, and
coming down on Third street, the quick
ear Of the saddened mother caught the
echo of familiar cry. and she gave ex-
preston to her suspicion that it came
from the coffin of her child. Her sus-
picion was overruled, but in few mo-
ments second cry was heard, and, in
compliance with the wishes ofthe mother,
the hearse was stopped and the coffin
drawn out. The struggles of what was
supposed to be the lifeless body could
now be plainly heard. The coffin was
quickly opened, and the child found to be
alive, to the amazement and unspeakable
delight of the parents. In her struggles
she had nearly torn from herself her
death robes.
She was quickly taken from the coffin
and carried into the house of French
lady at hand, where they bathed her in
vinegar. She recovered her strength rap
idly, and in short time was taken to the
home which she had left only few hours
before an apparent corpse. Since that
time she has been as we'll as for the last
few months. Her parents make every
effort to keep her mind from reverting to
the terrible episode in her young life,
fearing that there is feaI full fascination
in it to her.
She says that while others thought her
dead, she could feel their touch and hear
distinctly all that was said, but could not
move a single muscle or make the slight
est sign. She knew when they dressed
her for the coffin, when she was laid in it,
and heard the terrible lid fastened down,
but could not make a motion, and was ut |
terly powerless until the hearse had gone |
some distance, when the physical forces |
were probably set in motion again by the |
motion of the vehicle.
She describes with singular enthusiasm
and power, for one so young, the beatific |
sights that she saw while entranced, many
1ifferen: beings appearing to her in Won |
lerfal beauty.-St. Joseph (No) Gazette. !

MY RICHES.

BY DAVID D. HUDSON.
Four light feet that patter, pattcr
All the hvclong day;
Four small hands that scatter, scatter
Playlhings in my way;
Four pure eyes that sparkle, sparkle
Tender, brigh! and clear:
Four white lids to droop and darkle
Underneath tear;
Four red lips that ceaseless utter
Wise and witty things;
Yellow curls that hutter, hutter
Like fair golden wings;
Wee, eoft fingers cling!ng, clinging
To my father-hands;
Two sweet voices singing. singing
Songs Of baby lands;
Two warm hearts forever beating
One in each young breast;
Two fair, fondled forms retreating
To my arms 10 rest.
These my riches-growing. growing
Every hour they stay;
An unearthly brightness throwing
On the duilest day.
