CEMENT FOR CRACKED HooFs.-Mr.
Delay has discovered preparation by
means Of which sand cracks or fractures
in hoof or horn may be durably cemen-
ted up. Even pieces of iron can be
securely joined together by it's means.
The only precaution necessary fer its
successful application is the careful re-
moval Of all grease by spirits Of salam-
monia, sulphide of carbon or either.
flr. Delay makes no secret of its compo-
sition, which is as follows: Take one
part of coarseIy powdered gum-am-
moniacum and two parts gutta-percha,
IN pieces the size of q hazel nut. Put
them in MINED vessel over a slow
fire, and stir constantly until thorough
ly mixed. Before the thick, resinous
mass gets cold, mold it into sticks like
sealing WAX. The cement will keep for
years, and when required for use it Is
only necessary to cut off sufficient
quantity and remelt it Immediately be-
fore application.-Eisggish lire Stock

PRESENCE OF MIND.-A cigar stimu-

tablishes this point to his own satisfac-
ton in the Laramie Sentinel. A man
who was working on the roof of the roll
ing mill, up near the ridge pole, and
smoking cigar at the same time, sud
denly slipped on the slate roofing and
began to slide down IN the same position
that boy sits on sled. Faster and
faster he slid over the slippery states,
while those who stood by held their
breath III horror-stricken Amusement.
Strong men were paralyzed with fear
and men who were accustomed TO see
death claim its victim by accident and
violence stood spellbound, wringing
their hands helplessly and waiting for the
fall. There was no hope, Tor his speed was
accelerated By the CLASSY states and the
slippery surface of his overalls. Near
er and nearer he came to the edge of
the roof in his rapid fight-nearer and
nearer to the fatal plunge. The specta-
tor closed their eyes in despair, for how
could they witness the awful death of
their comrade. When they opened their
eyes again their victim was Standing in
q pile of rubbish, where he had struck,

COSTLY LACES AND JEWELRY,

Queen Isabella, Of Spain, possesses a
collection of old laces which can not be
eqalled in Europe, and which is worth
several millions. Productions of all
countries, kinds and ages are there, all
perfect in work, and of infinite richness.
One dress of point D'Alencon is worth
more than a hundred thousand francs
Some full sets of trimmings In old point,
belonging to Queen Victoria, which is
estimated at not less than five millions
of francs. Her Majesty possesses Indian
shawls to which the labor of more than
twenty years had been devoted, and
which at no matter WI at price, could not
be reproduced at present, worhmen hay
ing lost the secret Of such an art. We
do not speak of certain shawls woven
with fine threads of gold, and in which
the embroidery. is ornamented with pearls
and diamonds. Turning to other matters
of female ornamentation, we can say the
finest emeralds in feminine jewelry are
possessed by the Empress Elizabeth of
Austria, just as the richest and most per-
feet collection of rubies extant is the
property of the Grand Duchess OF SAKE
Weimar, granddaughter of Paul l., En-
peror of Russia. Pearls and turquoises,
which are without rival, belong to the
Russian imperial family, as SO do sap
phires to the British house of Guelph.
As for acknowledgements the crown jew
els of various netions-private couec-
tions can vie with those of queens, and

HORSES SHOULD BE EXG4.o1.,r4D DAILY.
An experienced veterinary authority
says that daily exercise is necessary for
all horses unless they are sick; it assists
and promotes free circulation of the
blood, develops the muscular structure,
creates an appetite, improves the wind,
and finally inyigorates the whole system.
We cannot expect much OF q horse that
has not been habituated to sufficient dai-
" exercise while such as have been
daily exercised and well managed, are ca
pable, not only OF great exertion and IA
figue, but are ready for work at any
season. When an animal is overworked
it renders the system very susceptible
to whatever morbid influences may be
present, and imparts to disease an I'M
usual degree Of severity. The exhaus-
ton produced by want of rest is equally
dangerous; such horses are always
among the first victims of disease and
when attacked their treatment is embar-
RAISING and unsatisfactory.-Dc
