MORNING WoRK.-A bad custom il
prevalent in many families, especially
among farmers, Of working an lour
before breakfast, attending to "cho,es, 7"
hoeing the garden, cutting wood, now
ing, etc. This is convenient on many
accounts, but it is not conducive to
health. The prevalent opinion istlat
the morning air is the purest and the
most healthful and bracing; but the
contrary is the fact. At no hour o. the
day is the air more filed with damp
ness, fogs, and miasmas than O0ut
sunrise. The heat Of the sun gradually
dissipates these miasmstic influences as
the day advances. An early neal
braces up the system against thes. n
huences. Every one knows the lan:uor
and faintness often experienced 70 tse
first hour in the morning, and tbs In
increased by exercise and want Of bod.
We do not agree with the boarsiy-
school regime, which prescribes aloag
walk before breakfast a = means ofpD-
noting health.

The HORSE THAT TOOK RIDE.-Yes,
terday afternoon as one of the street
cars which run by the City Hall was
slowly going up D street, between Third
street and the Lincoln statue, one of the
horses used by the company to assist
the car horses up the steep grade at the
point named, for some cause left his
station at Third street and followed
after the car, which contained a number
of passengers, and among them several
ladies. Being pretty quick stopper
he overlook the car, and Immediately
mounting lis fore feet upon the step,
entered the car, so far as to rest his
hind fee, on the back step, and thus
rode several rods, to the CONSERVATION
of the passengers and amusement of
outside spectators. The driver of the
car stopped it to invite his unwelcome
guest out, as he hadn't put any fare in
the box. At this time a rather small
bystander climbed over the back OF the
horse to the inside of the car, and rais-
ing the head Of the animal from the hp
of terrified old lady, who was appsr-
emily at the swooning point with fright,
carefully backed the sociable animal
out of that in-horsepitable stall, and
landed him on the cobble.stones ON all
tours, right side up. nothing broken,
and no one injured except some q the
female passengers, whose nerves were

One OF the most cuflOuo lleeIe i0ofru-
ments lately brought ont BY Tiffany 3
Co. 10 the pedometer, . small machine
about the size Of . watch. which Won
carry IN your pocket TO denote the dis
lance you travel on foot or ride on
horseback. II is very accurate ma
chine. A friend OF mine put one in his
pocket the other day. and walked from
the Fifth Avenue Hotel to the Central
Park and back. Strange To say, il
marked the distance as accui ately as
surveyor could measure it. The little
machine works this way: 1t tells the
number Of steps you take, or that your
horse takes, during any given time. To
get the length Of these steps You take
All average. That is. you walk 300 feet;
then count the number Of steps; divide
the number If inches travelled by the
number Of steps. AMI you will have the
length Of your average step. Then set
the pedometer, and start.
The other morning young married
lady, Mrs. -, who had sn idea that
her husband was ''larking" it too much
when lac ought to be in his Office attend

as she kissed him as usual.
