A Bit of Horse Biography.

There is an undevclopcd force in the
bone, brain, nerve and muscle of the
American horse which is we'll worth con-
sidering. Flora Temple was the first
horse that ever beat 2;2O; and compared
with what had been done by any horse
fifty years ago, the achievement was q
little short of a new and remarkable rev.
olution of equine power. At the age of
four this marewas sold by Samuel Welch,
near Utica, N. Y, to William III. Cong
dom of Smyrna, in the same state, for
thirteen dollars, because she was an un-
promising, unmanageable little thing.
Mr.. Congdon was glad to get rid of her
for sixty-eight dollars. After one or two
more changes not noted, she passed into
the hands of Mr.. Jonathan Vielee, of
Dutchcss county, at $175. He took her
to the city Of New York and sold her to
George E. Perrin for $3.50. In 1850 Jno.
p. Perrin bought her for 1915. In 1853
she trotted mile on the truck at Kaa-
mazoo in 2:193. Flora Temple is still
living, and is strong and vigorous at the
age of thirty. During her turf career
she won 70 races, mile heats, II two mile
heats, and of three miles. She and
Goldsmith Maid will be shown at the
centennial.
ihat non..pedigree blood should de-
velop such vital force and Improvement
OF organization need surprise no one, for
all blood In men and beast has n begin
ming, and its $irti:ss whether good or
bad are transmissible to offspring. Hence
foal from such trottcrs as Goldsmith
Maid and Flora Temple, with correspond
ing sires, have peculiar value, and in the
course OF few generations may evolve q
faculty of great constitutional and he
reditary merit. Properly speaking, reyo-
luton belongs to race or Species never
to individuals. individuals die in few
years unavoidably, whilespecies live, and
may improve for unknown milleniums.
Sheep whose progenitors gave the careful
shepherd only one pound of wool head

twelve months; while the best breeds
promise feeccs in the future that will
weigh twenty pounds, Evolution would
do infinitely more for man, his horses.

CARE OF THE FEET Concerning this
subject, the Scientific American very
truly says: "NIany are careless in the
keeping Of the feet. If they wash them
once week they think they arc doing
well. They do not consider that the
largest pores are located in the bottom of
the foot, and that the most offensive mat
ter is discharged through the pores.
They wear stockings from the beginning
to the end of the week without change,
which become perfectly saturated with
offensive mItter III health is generated
by such treatment of the feet The pores
arc not repellants, but alsorbcnts, and
this tetid matter, to greater or less ex-
tent, is taken back into the system. The
feet should be washed every day with
pure water only, as well rs the armpits,
from which an offensive oddrzis also emit
ted, unless daily ablutiont Is practiccd.
Stockings should not be WORN more than
day or two ut time. They may be
worn one day and then aired and summed
and worn another day, if necessary"

THE BEST WAY TO Cook CoDFIsH.-
Strip it of it's skin and cut it in pieces
about the size of ones hand; place it in
water and allow it to simmer on the stove
until it becomes tender. 1t should never
be allowed to boil. Boiling hardens and
darkens the fish, and deprives it of much
of its flavor.

the same quantity of new milk in a lar,
closely covered, three hours and half,
When cold remove the fat. Put in what.
ever flavor is liked; the tlavoring can be.
baked in it; little cinnamon, lemon-peel
or mace; add sugar after.
A Coon DENTIFRICE. Dissolve two
ounces of boraN in three pints of boiling

tul of tincturc of Invrrh, and one table
spoonful of spirits OF camphor. Bottle
the mixture for usv. Add one wine glass
full of the solution to halfa pint Of tepid
water, and use it daily. 1t preserves and
beautifies the teeth and arrests decay.
TOMATO -Takesound, ripe
tomatoes, scald and peel, then add us
much white sugar by weight as YOU have

drain off the syrup, and bring to IL boil
and skim well; put in the tomatoes and

Cabinet or Parlor Organs.

These have become the most popular
OF large musical instruments. There are
now about two hundred and fifty makers
of them in the United States, which pro-
ducc more than forty thousand organs
per annum. Most of these are very poor
instruments. This is naturally SO, be-
cause there are few articles in the manu-
tacture of which so much saving can be
made by the use of inferior, improperly
prepared material, and inferior work
manship, and yet which, when finished,
show SO little difference to the average
purchaser. The important parts of an
organ, made rs well as they can be, cost
two or three times as much rs if made as
low rs possible. Yet, when the organ is
done, it is not easy from casual hearings
to tell the difference between the best
and very poor one. Especially when
shown by one who knows how to cover
up detects, to one who has not special
skill in such matters, it is not difficult to
make poor organ appear good one.
The temptation to makers, then. to
produce, at fraction of the cost, an or
gan which will sell almost as well rs q
good one is almost irresistible. Hence
the fact that SO few good organs are made
and SO many poor ones, and that the
country is flooded with peddlcrs and
dealers selling these poor organs, which
pay such large profits. The buyer of the
poor organ docs not fail to find out his
mistake after n while. The thin recdv
tone of his cheap organ soon becomes
offensive; it works noisily and roughly,
is constantly out of order, and becomes
useless by the time really good instru-
ment would have been getting into its
prime. a good organ ought to last
generation, at least; poor one may last
five years, with considerable tinkerine, or
break down much sooner.
There is one safe way. Get genuine
production of one of the very best max
ers and you cannot go astray. Amonc.
these undoubtedly stands prc-eminenf

organs are so we'll known that other
