The Milan exchange. (Milan, Gibson County, Tenn.) 1874-1978, 1879-12-18


THE discovery that an animal on the
farm, however valuable, has broken
leg is generally the signal for taking its
life, as if no other course were possible.
Mr.. L. C. Naramore, Wilhston, Vt, de-
clares that in most cases a cure Gamble
effected, and he describes his plan of
treatment in the american CaltirGtOr i:
1.-The difficulty of managing an animal
in the ordinary way is that it keeps
straining the leg, thus preventing the
broken parts from knitting together. If
the leg is swollen, cold water is one of
the best applications for removing the
swelling, and this should have immedi-
ate attention. After the bone is care
fully set in case the fractured parts (al-
so space above and below them) with
heavy leather something like q bootleg.
Tin or wood might answer sthe same
purpose. 1t should be large enough to
leave two inches space all around the
leg. which space should be filed in solid
with wet plaster of Paris. The latter
will harden very quickly and hold the
bone as securely in position as though
in block of wood, still allowing q free
circulation ofblood witmnt the Leg

How He Made Economy Tremble.

Many years ago we knew mana
good-natured, harm-scarum old sailor
who, though an inveterate smoker and
even more improvident than the aver
age of his class, was a great hand to
save in the expenditure of matches. He
would fill his pipe and then wait for an
hour until he saw some other smoker
preparing to light up, when he would
stand by to get light himself, and if
the two pipes were successfully kindled
with the one match he would eXultingly
remark. II say, matey, amt this max
in economy tremble!'1 Then when Sat
urday night came he would 90 on a
spree, and spend as much money in
whisky as would have kept him in
matches for a year.-POrtSmO1th On.

Mr.. HAwEIs, leading London Epis-

mon on the drama, in which he said /:
" Though the teaching may not be di-
rect, no picture of human life can fail
to be instructive, and the dramatist and
actor are both responsible for impress
ions made. How incalculable for good
and evil are these indirect teachings of
the stage. How often a man has sat
quietly and seen his own mean life sifted
before his eyes-seen the Nemesis fall
which was awaiting the close of his
own career-watched tendencies in HIM
