THE HORSES FORE-FEET.

The foot should be neither large nor
small, but of a neat appearance, and
medium size. We are no friend to the
large fat foot, but regard this forma-
ton as very undesirable one. 1t sug-
gests to one that the companion bones
of the skeleton of which it is part, are
likewise soft and porous.
1t is not the large. iat-fOoted man,
that can walk the farthest, or leap the
highest and the spryest, swiftest foot
ed, animals in the world, have small,
upright, horny hoofs. The chamois,
antelope, reindeer and wild horses, all
have this formation of the feet. The
mule has hOof that many horsemen
would call contracted. yet who ever saw
a mule lame in the foot? Our idea is
that medium sized and neatly proper
toned foot is as good sign in the horse
as in the man. A foot that is either
exceedingly large, or quite small is sug-
gestive of disease in the internal struc-
ture of the foot. The great hue and
cry. about wide open heel, is hum
bug. The heels that never look that
way, are those of a Morgan or French
horse. both of which are noted for foot
souudness. We do not remember ever
to have seen an unsound foot under a
Canadian horse; and yet the foot of the
Canadian horse is invariably upright,
nearly circular, mule-shaped. We CON-
mend these suggestions to those who are
forever crying contracted feet" against
horse, unless he has foot large and
fat as an old-fashioned frying pam

now SHOULD You DISPOSE OF
YOUR PROPERTY

In all ordinary cases it is very desir-
able for every man to be his own execu-
tor, rather than to defer his benefcence
till after his death. STILL if men have
estates that cannot be disposed of dur
ing their life, or if for any good reason
they prefer to distribute their substance
by will, they should be careful to do so
with the strictest Christian integrity.
In discharging your testamental du-
ties, you naturally remember those per-
sons and objects, which hold the dearest
place in your affections. Your Supreme
Friend, Christ, will therefore, undoubt-
eddy, occupy the first place In this most
important and solemn moment of APP
portiOning the wealth which he has be-
slowed upon you.
Whatever disposal you make of your
wealth is the expression of your will
not mere passing thought, not pre-
cipitate, unconsidered act; but an act
which you formally preface with saying
that you perform it "being in sound
mind" in q word, it is the deliberate.
act of the sovereign part of your nature,
your will. You have during life enjoy
ed the wealth God has placed in your
hands, and all the comforts and advan-
tages it has brought; and now, at your
death, the Christian principle which
prompts you to provide generously for
your loved ones, also requires you so to d.
vide the remainder, as to accomplish the
most good, to the greatest number, of
Gods own children, and to the advance
ment Of his cause in the earth. You
actually give this to Christ, with the
full consent of all the powers of your
mind, and impress it with the sovereign
seal of your will
Your will is part of your prepara-
ton for death. You make it avowedly,
that the subject of your property may
not disturb you in that solemn hour,
that you may then be able to think OF
your business affairs with peace. You
] take it as a part of your preparation fol-
that awful moment when it shall be

{ stewardship" and on the way to tina

THE HoRsE's AGE.-A colt is born
with twelve grinders in twelve days ne
will have four front teeth added, and
when another four make their appear
ance he will be four weeks old. At
eight months of age, the corner teeth
have come, and when they have attained
to the length of the front teeth, he is
one year old. A two year old colt has
the dark substance in the middle of the
crown of the teeth, called the kernel,
ground out of all its front teeth. Dur
ing the fourth year. the next four teeth
are shifted, and the corner teeth in the
fifth. At six years of age the bride
teeth have attained to their full growth,
and the kernel is worn out of the mid
die front teeth. At seven years, the
bride teeth begin to wear off, the ker-
mel of the teeth next TO the middle front
is worn out, and hook has been formed
in the corner teeth of the upper jaw.
The kernel is worn out of all the lower
teeth and begins to decrease in the mid
die upper front at eight years. In the
ninth year tho bride teeth lose theil
points, the hook in the corner teeth has
increased in size, and the kernel has en-
tirely disappeared from the upper mid
die front teeth. At ten years the ker-
mel has worn out of the teeth next <
the middle front of the upper jaw, ant
it has entirely vanished from the cor
ner teeth of the same jaw in the elev
enth year. When the animal has at
tanned twelve years the crowns of al
the front teeth i'll the lower jaw have be
come triangular, and the bride teet
, are worn down great deal. As tn
e horse further advances in age. the gun
e shrink away from the teeth and the kel

he has laid his master hand upon the

hills in scales and the mountains in
balance. Man weighs planet against

the balance in which this very world
was weighed. You say how great is

youth ard beauty, beneath the grace
full folds Of a guazy green veil. and her

didn't kick her tiller as high as the
small Of her back. She didn't walk
like mule with loose set of harnes:

SELF CONDUCT AND GOOD
MANNERS.

'Tis rule Of good manners, says
Ralph Waldo Emerson, to avoid cxag-
peration. A lady loses as soon as she
admires too easily and too much. In man
or woman, the face and the person lose
power, when they are on the strain to
express admiration. A man makes his
interiors, his superiors, by heat. Why
need you, who are not a gossip, talk as
a gossip, and tell eagerly what the
neighbors, or the journals say? State
your opinion without apology. The at
titude is the main point, assuring your
companion that, come good news or
bad. you remain in good heart and good
mind. which is the best news yor can
possibly communicate. Self control is
the rule. You have in you there, a moi
sy. sensual, savage. which you are to
keep down. and turn all his strength to
beauty. For example, what seneschal
and detective is laughter? 1t seems to
require several generations Of gener-
al education to train a squeaking
or shouting habit out Of a man. Some
times. when in almost all expressions,
the Ch0ctow and the slave. are worked
out Of him, coarse nature still betrays
itself in his contemplate squeals Of joy.
The great gain is, not to shine, not to
conquer your companion-then you learn
nothing but conceit-but to find CON-
panion who knows that you do not to

LEARNING TO KEEP HOUSE.

Begin with your own things and your
own place. That is what your mother
will tell you if you rush to her. en-
thusiastic with good intentions. and off

ing. Don't draw that little bucket of
cold water to have it poured back upon
your early zeal. Reform your upper
bureau drawer; relieve the closet pegs of
their accumulation of garments out of
use month or two ago. Institute a
clear and cheerful order, in the midst of
which, yOu can daily move; and learn
to lseeplt! - Use yourself to the beauti.
ful-which is the right-disposing of
things as you handle them so that it
will be . part of your toilet to dress

you dress yourself; leaving the draper
les you take of as lightly and artificial
ly hung. or as delicately folded and
placed, as the skirts you loop carefully
to wear, or the ribbon and lace you put
with a soft neatness, about your throat.
Cherish your instincts of taste and fit
ness, in every little thing that you have
about you. Let it grow impossible t.
you to put down so much as q pin box
where it will disturb the orderly anC
pleasant grouping upon your dressing
table or to stick pins in your cushion
even, at all sorts of tipsy and uncom
Portable inclinations. This will no
make you "fussy"-it is the other thing
that does that; the not knowing, ex
cept by 6dgety experiment, what is har
mony and the intangible grace of rela

LEAVING THE FALL GRowTH.-Ansel
W. Putnam. of DanverS. writes to the
Netc England Farmer: when is it
best to leave the September and October
growth on the land ? think it had
better be left whenever the land is not
fertile enough for one to expect his
grass to fall down before it blossoms
why? Because thick grass which does
not, in favorable season, fall before it
blossoms, has not all the plant food, it
can use. Now, if the fall growth is left.
ard if, as l think. what the grass loses
while drying and ripening on the roots,
returns directly to the roots, they are in
very much better condition to grow in
the spring, than they would be without
that help. AS l understand it, the case
is like this: If man must do day s
work upon the food he eats before going
to bed the night before the work is to
be done, it is better for him to 90 tc
bed full, but, if he feels sure of a good
breakfast in the morning, it is better
for him not to eat the late supper; 81
with the grass: if the land is poor, and
the grass is not to be fed in any othel
way, better feed it with grass than lie
it starve. 1t seems to me that the pro
cess by which the next seasons crop il
benefited by leaving the fall growth o
this season on the land, is an interna
process. rather than an external one
l have never been able to find any proc
that there is any value in the fall growtl
as winter blanket, or summer mulch
