Arab Horse Maxims.

Whose raiseth and traineth horse
for the Lord is counted in tho number
OF those who give aims day and night,
in private as we'll as public. He Will
find his reward. All his sins will be
forgiven him, and never will any fear
come over him and dishonor his heart.
Let your colt be domebticated and
live with you from his tendcrest ago,
and when horse he will be simple,
dooi]e, faithful and Injured to hardship
and fatigue.
If you havo your horse to serve you
on the day of trial, if you desire him
then to be horse Of trnth, make him
sober, accustomed to hard work and
inaccessible to fear.
DO not boat your horses, nor speak TO
them in loud tono Of voice do not be
angry with them, but kindly reprove
their faults; they will do better there
after. for they understand the language
of man and it's meaning.
Ii you have long days journey be-
lore you, spare your horse at the start :;
let him frequently walk to recover his
wind. Continue this until he has
sweated and dried three times, and you
may ask him whatever you please, he
will not leave you in difficulty.

water within, but if you open it sud

Make your horse work and work

perils of horse, and tho main cause

Observe your horse when he is drink

his head he remain square, without
bending his limbs, he possesses sterling
qualities and all parts of his body are

CURE FOR DRUNKENNESS There is a
curious prescription in England for the
cure of drunkenness, by which thou.
sands are said to have been assisted in
recovering themselves. The recipe
of John Vine Hall, father of Rev. New
man Hall and Captain Vine Hall, com
mander of the Great Eastern steamship.
He had fallen into such habitual drunk
enness that his utmost efforts to regain
himself proved unavailiug. at length
he sought the advice of m eminent
physician, who gave him prescription
which he followed faithfully for several
months, and at the end of that time he
lost NIL desire for liquors, although he
had for many years been led captive by
most debasing habit. The recipe,
which he afterward published, and by
which SO many have been assisted 20
reform. is as follows: "Sulphnte of
iron, 5 grains magnesia, 10 grains
peppermint water, IL grains spirit of
nutmeg, one drachm-to be taken twice
day." This preparation acts as q
tonic and stimulant, and SO partly sup.
plies the place of the accustomed liquor,
and prevents that absolute physical and
moral prostration that follows sudden
breaking off from the use of stimulating
drinks.

A New Grass.

desolation that he made with the tramp

farmers called "Sherman clover" It

HOW SHE MANAGED IT.

B. Luce is Floyd Valley farmer; and
plants corn and potatoes on a quarter Sec
ton near Sioux City, Iowa. Luce goes
to town now and then between crops, and
is always good enough to take his wife
with him. On these visits Luce has one
bad habit, which is by no means peculiar
to him alone, for many other brawny
grangers have it just as bad as Luce.
He leaves his wife in certain store
where he deals, and runs around town
with the boys, taking toddies and talking
"horse." His wife never sees him again
until the shades Of evening remind him
that it is is time to pick up the old wo-
man and go home. That's b. Luce to a
fraction. Mrs. b. Luce is patiently
bearing woman, who, however, finally
got tired of being thrown upon her own
resources and so much into her own soci-
ETY. when she came to town for little re-
taxation and enjoyment. OF late she ap-
peared in public with baby in her arms
and really was not quite SO lonesome;
but she and the baby made little plot to
beat the old man, and this was the way
oft:
Lately, on fine morning, b. Luce and
wife and baby went to town 10 take n
day. Luce dropped wife and baby at the
store as usual. Wife Immediately asked
Luce to hold the baby for minute while
she attended to a little matter of dress
that needed fixing. Luce bit at the baby
and said sail right, but be quick" Wife
left the store by side door, and went
down the street with twinkling feet. And
she took the whole day to do it. 1t be-
came unpleasant in the store from vari-
Gus causes, among which was bowling Mt
customers, and Luce tucked the baby
under his arm in desperation, and took it
out for walk. lie met the "boys."
They saw how it was, and enjoyed the
scene. They came around and made
faces at the Luce cherub, and pinched its
toes to make music for the march. II
was glorious merry-making for the
boys, but horrible predicament for the
| lulllCl VI bllub luuONOllb DupOt uhN Wiz hho-
band of that tricky wife. He roamed
arouud town looking wildly for the heart
less mother, and bewailing the day that
made him happy father. AT length he
offered five dollars for the arrest and re-
turn of his wife. The news of it reached
her: she came and claimed the money,
as she needed il to buy pin or two and
piece of tape. She got the five dollar
bill before she wond take the baby, and
had never been so rich in her life. Mrs.
Luce told Luce cartly that he now knew
how it was himself. lie made no reply.
1t was too late in the day to talk "horse," "
and the man had no appetite for it. He
has not been to town since. There is a
moral lying around loose in this domestic
incident, which the masculine reader
may gather for himself.
