that no tig ht-lacing makes them

duces everything else, is apt to add on
the figure OF women, and time brings on
undesirable stoutness. This cannot be
better treated than it was by the late
duchess of Devonshire, one Of the most
beautiful of women, who grew at the age
of forty years, as English women are APT

Small Waists.

Small waists and early deaths have
been the subjects Of recent comments of
a physician of celebrity, and his notion
that the latter is the certain sequence of
the former is borne out by almos; all
authorities of every country. Yet, no
matter how the psychologist or the ply
sicians may talk, women have always
compressed their waists and expanded
their skirts, and they always will, until
public opinion pronounces for heavy
figure. It has never influenced fash
1onable woman yet to hear that the
Venus de Medici had large waist she
has been told SO ever since that laultless
image Of female beauty was lisin,crred.
She merely shrugs her shoulders and
draws her laces tighter. She knows very
we'll that if she went to ball with that
figure of Venus no man would ask her to
dance. So important matter is it to
have a small waist that it has become a
matter of pride to the Austrian people,
and is mentioned in the court Journals
that the empress of Austria is celebrated
Tor possessing q waist which only
measures sixteen inches. This is great
er nobility than even the possession of
sixteen quarterings on your shield, with
out which you cannot be admitted to
"best society" of Vienna. "Sixteen,"
therefore, is magic number at Vienna.
There are many persons, to be sure, who
have as small waist; but they have not

Let Pigs Roam.

A correspondent of the MilcA Zei1ung
insists upon the necessity of letting pigs
have access to plenty of moist sand or
earth in some form or other, and consid-
ers that the system of feeding them al
most exclusively on skim milk, meal, and
such materials is responsible tor many OF
the ailments of tho intestinal canal, SC
frequently met with. He states that all
ing pigs are often quickly restored to
health by simply putting a trough Of wet
sand IN Their sty, and recommends
that supply should always
be ke-t there for the inmates to help
themselves ad libitun,. Pigs roaming
alb ,ut at large consume considerable
proportion of earth with the various
aco'ns, roots, Larvae, etc, that they grub
up; and they should not he deprived OF it
when in confinement. Any one may con-

a natural want. If sucking pig, but =
fortnight old, that has never left the sly,
be turned out into the open, it will at

Keep Out OF tho Kitchen.

Now that the summer heat is upon us
I would urge mothers and housekeepers
generally, to spened as little time in a
hot kitchen as possible. 1t may seem like
an idle piece Of advice to a great many
who, like the late Pope, regard them
selves as 'prisolers,' with no chance Of
escape from their enthrallment. Yet the
busiest worker can lessen the hours she
spends IN its torrid heat, if she will only
prictice little headwork over the matter

done towards preparing meals before the
fire is lighted; when the room is at its

If We were to 20 to many blacksmith
and ask him if he did not think Nature
had made a mistake in putting the
clumsy frog into the horses foot, he
would hardly be ready to say yes, and
very likely would put on a surprised look,
and perhaps explain that in some coun
.ries horses did very we'll without shoes.
and 50 tile fog was we'll enough left to
care fer itself. But, while not ready to
take ground with you in any criticism of
the plan upon which the foot is construct
ed, you have but to look in the corner of
the shop where two horses stand newly
shod, lift up their feet and observe for
yourself, that if the smith has not said it,
the knife has said the frog is bad thing
and must be cut away. The horses do
not stand on the ground, but nearly half
an inch higher, on the iron of their shoes,
and which takes the weight of the horse
on the outer she'll of the hoof. The
practice is as sensible as it would PC for
a man who had to travel on all tours,
taking the weight on the nails Of his
fingers aud toes rather than on the cushion
which lies behind them. II is always the
soft part--the india-rubber part of the
feet Of animals that have snch-which
receives the weight, and the shelly hard
part. We know what an elephants foot
is; it is all rubber-llke. The horse has
the same incased in shell, which gives
the horse accuracy and stcadiness Of
movement. Now this casing protects the
frog. 1t grows slowly; the frog grows
rapidly. The healthy foot of the colt
shows a centre, if not projecting. at least
level with the line of the hoof He does
not take his weight wholly on the rim of
his feet. Old horses would have feet more
like them, if only blacksmiths would
allow they knew little less than Nature,
ana really knew enough to read her in
tentions.
The object in shoeing the animal, aside
from the occasional one of changing its
gait, is simply to prevent the wear and
SCATTERING ofthe outer she'll. and to enable
1t to take a tirmer hold Of the ground,
escaping the slipping Of the unshod horn.
1t is an unfortunate incident Of our
system of shooting, that the horse is raised
from the ground, as boy is when he
mounts stills.

Why Gold Changes Color.

1t is we'll known that the human BODY
contains humors and acids, similar 10
action to, and having a like tendency
toward, baser metals, as nitric and
sulphuric acids have, namely, to tarnish
or dissolve them, varying in quantity in
different persons; of this theory we have
abundant proof in the effects which the
wearing of jewelry produces on different
persons. Thousands wear continually,
without any ill-efcct, the cheaper
class of jewelry vita brass ear-wires,

What is our doom when life is spentf &C.
