Every Kentuckian has had q good
excuse this week for throwing his hat
in the air, besides the fact that the
time has come for every man to buy a
new one. Next to his pretty sisters,
and beyond the peerless extrac, OF
Bourbon, the brave Of the Blue Grass
holds the speed of Kentucky horses
highest among subluuary things. On
Wednesday a Kentucky horse, bred
on Kentucky soil, and owned by a
Kentuckian, made on Kentucky y
track the best iour-mile time on record,
and had a full three seconds 10 spare.
Not only this, but a Kentucky trot.
ter on the same day carried of one Of
the great Centennial purses, two other
Kentucky horses coming after him in
two and three order. Therefore any ex.
travagance of feeling since displayed
by the stalwart sons of Old Kaintuck,
whether at home or abroad, is in the
natural order Of thugs. and to be
commended. The scene that followed
Ten Broeck's triumph on the Louis
willie course, on Wednesday, recalled
to old stagers the memorable contest
in the same vicinity score and half
years ago. when Gray Eagle was
matched against Wagner, and all Ken
lucky turned out 10 see. Men were
suddenly beggared or enriched by the
result, and it passed into kentucky's
history like the glory of The legs OF
Cebus into the annals of Flea.

A preacher is accredited with hav.
ing COTTON of something novel in a
Maryland county pulpit, lately, which
came near, however, involving him in
trouble. To draw full house he had
it rumOred far and wide, upon a Ger,
tain Sunday evening he would show
his congregation something they had
never seen before and would never see
again. Curiosity according led many
out who had not looked upon the inte.
rior of church for many days. AT
ter the large audience was seated. the
minister arose, and drawing a peanut
from his pocket, held it up so that all
could see it. That began he, "you
never saw before and then. breaking
the shell, he tossed the kernel into his
mouth, blandly remarking, "and you'll
never see ii again" The congrega-
ton was justly indignant, and it was
limited that if he did not shortly leave
town he would be treated to "pelt.
ing with stale hen fruit"

When dog barks at night in Ja
pan, the owner is arrested and sen,
fenced to work year for the neigh
bors that were disturbed. The dog
gets of easier, being simply killed.
Our enlightened country has still
many things to learn from that more
favored but less civilized people.

Feed literally, work steadily, and
clean thoroughly, is my motto in the
management of horses. My great
motto is to have the horse rubbed dry
and clean before leaving him for the
night. Where horses are worked SIX
days in the week, thorough grooming
is absolutely essential to their health.
The more highly they are fed the more
important it is to clean them. Most
men use the curry-comb too much and
the whisk and brush too little. do
not myself insist upon it. but believe
It would pay always to take the whole
harness from the horse when put in
the stable at noon. and rub them dry,
washing the shoulders with cold water,
afterwards thoroughly drying them
with a cloth. | question if one farm
er in a hundred duly appreciates how
much he loses from having poor
horses. and in a condition to do a maxi
mum days work.

While Mr.. Ludwig was driving his
trotling stallion, Black Shark, home
from the races, a barking dog made
the beast run away. Mr.. Ludwig
Was thrown out. The horse Jumped
over a stone wall into a field, where
there was an app!etree with two limbs
in the shape OF the letter V. Into
this crotch the horse leaped, and was
held as though screwed in wise. To
release him, Mr.. Ludwig saved of a

York over a fish called the pompano,
which has recently made its appear.
ance in American waters. Two years

before the Mt. Olive Grange, No.
1888, in Ca ey county, by Mrs. p. j.
Humpheys;
The subject which I have selected
for an essay, this evening. is Our
Humes.' What h there on earth
more delightful to contemplate than
a quiet, peaceful. well order d home :
What subject can be Of more impor-
lance to us than the way in which to
render "our homes happy Having
taken this view of the subject, I will
endeavor TO show what think is re-
quired Of each member Of the family,
in order to render "our homes happy.
In the first place, a few words to the
ladies, who are wives and housekeep-
ers, for !. think all will agree with me
that on them devolves the main task
Of making "our homes" happy. The
main point toward the accomplish
ment Of this object. is TO cultivate .
disposition Of cheerfulness and content
ment. Let US endeavor. amid the
trial. and vexations attending the
daily outline of housekeeping, always
to look on the bright side Of the pic
ture and the best Of everything. What
can be more disheartenipg TO a man
than, after q hard days toll in the
field. IN come home NJ might and find
his wife with a frown on her face,
grumbling aud finding fault with ev-
erybody and everything around her 7
Then. IL we cannot have things ex-
actly as we would wish to have them.
let us make the best Of what we 10
have, and with resources at our com.
msnd. make "our homes as bright
and pleasant as possible. Remember
