Handing Sheep.


Not even the COW should receive
gentler handling than the sheep. Kind
ness is always well repaid by any of
our domestic animals, but the sheep
being so shy an animal, it REQUIRES
special exhibition of kindness. Itsbould
be so handled and treated as it will
never become frightened at the aA
proach of person. Their treatment
should be such as that they will actual
" learn to entertain an affection for
their keeper, and if they do, they will
naturally be tame and dOcile. A flock
of wild sheep is about the most IN
profitable investment that afarmer can
make. They are continually getting
themselves into some trouble, and Caus-
ing great annoyance, if not loss, to
their owner.
We have seen some fockmen jUmp
into flock. and pull and haul the sh eep
by the wool until the animals were not
fered great injury otherwise. A 81 leep
should never be caught or lifted by the
wool. Some one has said that if ny
one doubts the impropriety of 1ftin 8 q
sheep by the wool, Just let him per nit
himself 10 be lifted by the hair, and it
is a good suggestion. When sheep are
thus caught or lifted, the skin in so me
instances is actually torn from the
flesh, and if the injury is not to that
extent it cannot but affect the flesh to
some degree.
A sheep should be lifted by placing
the arms around the body and near the
forelegs. This is the easiest way to do.
especially with large sheep. To catch
the animal, the hands should be thrown
about the neck, or else the sheep should
be caught by the hind leg Immediately
above the hook. This latter may DO
done with the hand or the crook, and
when this way is adopted the utmost
gentleness should be observed, and the
sheep gently drawn back until the other
hand can reach the neck. 1t is scarce
ly necessary to remind the keeper that
when the crook is used upon a sheep
which is closely surrounded by other
sheep, that great care must be exer-
cised lest the other sheep jump against
the one caught or against the crook, in
which case severe damage may bedone-

New STYLES In JeMeIry.

The present display of jewelry COM
prises so many novelties that it is diff
cult to determine where to begin their
description. The 9 slide pin'' or ia, e
pin" is very popular, owing to its con-
worn by fashiOnaDles not only TO fasten
lace bows and ties, but to attach the
collar and tichu.
One of the most novel of these is a
bar on which lies a round, open fan.
Through this-gold on gold with silver
tracing-a mouse has nibbled a hole,
is reaching through, and, to ali appear
ances, interviewing another mouse as
to the difficulties of his ambitious at
tempt. Another pin has two mice run
ming over a golden girdle, which, by
the adjustment of glowing topazes of
extreme smallness, and garnetS equally
small, looks as though heated, which
would argue certain recklessness. to
say the least, on the part of the mice in
question. Still another pin has upon
it horrid little Deaths head, in white
enamel, in which very diminutive
points glow behind the hollow sockets
of the eyes, and, upon examination,
prove to be two lighted cigars of ruby.
This is of French design. A fourth pin
has golden skeleton adjusted by inVis-
ible wires, which jerks at every motion
of the wearer.
There IS certain fascination about
these weird pins that gives Une an un-
accountable desire to possess them
Pin fifth has two skeletons dressed in
tho ID -E - Da,,f,ln,sl
of the ballet, and with their caps set
jauntily crooked over their sightless
eyes.
A beautiful design is bird balancing
itself upon a silver-barred fence and
holding in its beak a spray of coral
berries. Another equally pretty has
two unfurled fans at the end, and in the
center a "carbuncle stone" An odd
pin has two heads of negro children in
black enamel, with diamond eyes and
grinning mouths with teeth of ivory.
One of the most curious and costly,
and most difficult 10 keep from injury,
owing to its mechanism, is slide upon
which are set two jeweled eyes, imita-
ting human eyes, shaded with lashes
and eyebrows of enamel, and which
move from side to side by tiny spring
that the motion of the wearer stirs.
The effect is odd, and is that of rolling
rather than simply turning the eye
