CLAIMS.

The small, round, hard-shell clam Is
oy no means driven out Of the market,
or away from tho table, by that big,
Dloated member of the family, tho oy-
ster. CLANS which are good in summer :,
are cvon better through tho fall and
winter, There is common prejudice
against CLANS that they arc indigestiblc.
If they arc so, 1t is because they are inn
properly cooked; they are stcwed
whole Into tough leather; the cook fam
cying she must serve solcs, or other
monstrositics, instead Of clans. Or
they are baked to cindcrs, as at some of
the popular clam bakcs, where they
arc only digestcd by such mechanical |
means as by pouring into the stomach
whole pints of strictly prime Bourbon
benzino, as the ostrich swallows rail-
road spikes and bites Of junk bottles to
assist IN cutting up its tough TODD.
CLANS should never be stewed, but cut
up finely and gently simmercd. But
the royal way Of serving tho clam is to
roast 1t on bars Of gridlren over a
bright grate firc-.the quicker tho bet
ter--and tho minute 1t "sizzlcs," open
1t, pan 1t, and lot 1t simmer a little in
Its own saved juice and bit Of butter.
The clam thus cooked is a grateful
creature that will repay all tho atten-
tion shown 1t. And so served, far from
being digestible, 1t Is tender as the
swan song in tLohengrin."

DOMESTIC.

KEEP THE BODY EREcr.--Alf" erect
bodily attitude Is Of vastly more impor-
tancc to health than people generally
imaglne. Crooked bodily positions,
maintained for any length of time, arc
always Injurious, whether in the sit
ting, standing, or lying posture, whctll-
or sleeping or waking. 10 sit with
the body leaning forward on tho stom-
ach or to one side, with the heels OLE
waited on u level with the head, is not
only In bad taste, but exceedingly det-
rimcntal to health. 1t cramps the
stomach, presses the vital organs, in
terrupts the free motions of the chest,
and enfceblcs the functions of the alb. ..
dominal and thoracic organs, and, IN
fact, unbalanccs tho whole muscular
system. Many children become slight
~ hump-Dackcd, or severely round
shouldered, by sleeping with their head
raised on a high pillow. When any
person finds 1t easier to sit, or stand, or
walk,or sleep, in crooked position
than a straight one, such person may
DC sure that his muscular system Is
badly deranged, and the more c..rntu,
he Is to preserve straight or upright
position, and get back to nature again,
the better.

SCIENCE.

Mdny-toed Horses. es.--PrOfessor 0. G..
Marsh has q brief but interesting article
on Polydactyle Horses, recent and ex-
tinct," in the Juno number of The
american Journal Of Science and Arts, in
which he cites several curious instances
of extra digits in the foot Of the modern
horse, and shows that these reversions
to an older type are far more numerous
than is commonly supposed. AS to the
ancestors of these animals, says the
Professor, there can be no doubt. Amer
and during the whole of Tertiary time
this continent was occupied with equine
mammals Of many and various forms.
Although all these became extinct be-
fore the discovery of this country, their
abundant remains mark out the gcneal-
ogy of tho horse In an almost unbrOken
succession Of forms. If We examine the
remains of the Oldest representatives of
the horse In this country we shall find
that these animals were polydactylc,
and Of small size. AS the line was con-
tlnued toward the present era, there
was agradual increase in size, and dim
mutton In the number Of toes, until the
present type of horse was produced. .
The original ancestor of the horse, not
rs yet discovered, undoubtedly had five
GocS VII CitCIl lOUI. uS OIucSC member
of the group now known is the Eohip-
pus, which had four we'll developed toes
and the rudimcnt of another on each
fOrc-foOt, and three toes behind. This
animal was about as large as a fox, and
its remains are from the Coryphodon
beds near the base of tho Eoccne. In
the next higher division OF the Eoccne
another equine genus, Orohippus, makes
Its appearance. 1t rcscmblcd its prcdc-
ccssor IN size, but had only four toes In
front and three behind. At the top Of
the Eoccnea third allied genus has been
found (Epihippus), that closely rcscm-
blcd Orohippus in its digits, but differed
In it's teeth. Near the base Of the next
formation, the Mioccne, another equine
mammal, Mesohlppus, occurs. This
animal was about as large as sheep,
and had three usable Toes and the splint
of another OH each forc-foot, with but
three toes behind. Alta somewhat high
er horizon nearly allied genus, Milo
hippus, has been found, which has the
splint bone OF the outer or fifth digit re-
duced to short remnant. In the PHO
Gene above three TO ed horse Urotohip-
pus) about rs large rs Il donkey was
abundant, and still higher up a near al
ly of the modern horse, with only q
single toe on each foot (Pliohippus),
makes his appearance. A true Equus,
rs large rs the existing horse, appears
