The Popularity of the Equitable Life Assurance Society,"
indicated by the fact that for Eleven years its average an
nua New Business has been larger than that of anv other
Company in the world is DUE in great measure to its we'll
known promptness in the payment of Death Claims and its
rule never to take advantage of eccaities where an
Equitable claim exists

TO YOUNG READERS.

Form home libaries. No matter how
few or small the books are to commence
with, they will make beginning, and
that once made, you will wonder at its
growth. Don't let your books be scatter.
ed through every room in the house. II
you haven't shelves, make them. They
need not be Of black walnut, and they will
hold books If they are not polished. It's q
poor sort Of boy that cannot knock together
half dozen boards that will answer such O
purpose.
And now suppose that you have made
your shelves, or bought them, or have them
already at hand, and have brought together
all the books which you can lay claim to,
big and little, important and unimportant,
school books and all, how shall the yet
vacant space be filed.
Make it a rule, in the first place, to put
nothing in but what is good-no dime
novels pirate stories, or milk,and-watcr
trash by popular SERIES authors. One
genuine good book is worth solid cord of
such, Get something that lasts; something
that you can take up again and again with
pleasure; something that teaches you while
it amuses.
Let us make few suggestions. Of all
the books published we know of nothing
better to base a home library upon than
the several volumes Of the Wide Awake
Pleasure Book. 1t contents cover wider
range of subjects than any other publication
Of the kind we know of,and are made up of
contributions from the very highest literary
talent in England and America, all writ
ten expressly for its pages and layishly il
lustrated by the best artists Each number
is perfect treasure house. The stories
are bright, breezy and healthy, and the
poetry is Of the same character. The pres
encc of this set of books 10 q family would
exert an influence for good not to be lightly
estimated. They are clearly printed and
beautifully bound.
Then add the two volumes of Poets
Homes, and the two companion volumes of
our American Artists, four books without
which no household library is possibly COM
pletc.
Find place then for the issues in the
Spare Minute eries-Thoughts that
Breathe, Might of Right, Cheerful Words
and True Manlincss, with the volumes that
are to come. In the line of history there
are the six volumes by Miss Yonge, and
the new series just begun Of Lothrops Lii
brary Of Entertaining History. Add to
these Eyes Right and Four Feet, Wings,
and Fins for lovers Of natural history; Mrs
Lilies Story Of English Literature; Mrs.
Peason's Gutenberg, or the Art
Of Printing, and Hopkins Waits and
Their Authors. Let the girls, if there
're any in the family, add, as
hey can, the "Pansy" books, Ella Farmans
Cooking Club, A White Hand and Anna
Maybe, and Julia A. Eastman's series Of
girls stories, while the boys should not for
got Good-for.Nothing Polly, the 0ut.of-
School series, and Mr.. Rand's Pushing

a high critical authority, has this to say
of it:
This Is very sumptuous monthly full Of
such reading as may crafty the varied
tastes which children as we'll as grown.uo
people cherish. Its illustrations, we are
bold to say, are not to be matched in our
own children's monthlies. They have the
effect OF drawings, and not that often SIN
gularIy unfaithful reproduction of draw
ing called an engraving. As soon as this
very striking magazine becomes known,
many homes will be thankful to the Eng
fish publishers for bringing it within their
reach"
The Little Folks Reader, issued monthly.
by d. Lothrop & Co., as reader for prim.
airy schools, has become very popular as
magazine for home reading. Each number
is beautifully illustrated.

purchased of Kate Greenaway the picture
she is painting for the next Royal Academy
Exhibition in London. 1t will be en-
graved as the trontispiece of the Christmas
number Of Babyland. Mr.. Lothrop also
secured a new work by the author of Israel
Mort. Overman, called The Temptcr Be-
hind, which will be published in advance
Of the English edition.
The publishers of Wide Awake have
secured for that magazine the new story
which George Macdonald is now writing.
1t will be printed directly from the authors

Horse shOeing.

A writer in the Gettysburg, Pa, COM
piler says The shoes Of the horse should
be Of equal thickness throughout, with a
fat ground surface; as those with high
heels, which asinine smiths make in imi-
tation Of their OVID, are dangerously alb
surd. The toe, which ought to be raised
is lowered, aud natures plan reversed,
which eleyates the point ia order to avoid
obstructions. The web should be wide,
and Of the same width throughout, instead
Of being pinehed in because the smith likes
to see the shoe well set off at the heels.
This is both unphilosophical and detri-
mental, 1t deceives the eye Of man, aud
injuries the foot Of the horse, The outer
edge Of the foot rests on the inner edge Of
the shoe, aud the remaining width Of the
web projects beyond the hoof; SO that the
master who thinks that his horse has a
good open foot, only has to be proud Of a
bad open shoe, which both eonceals de-
formilies underneath, and invites with
open arms bad road to come and do its
worst The heels arc made bare just
where the naFieular joint is most exposed;
and il that be infamed, what must the
agony be when the unprotected oottreads
on a sharp aintg The horse falls sudden
" lame, or drops as if he had been
phrases in much too common use to re-
quire explanation; and small is the pity
which the suffering animal meets withfrom
man, who, having first destroyed the use
Of his victims feet, abuses him because he
cannot go; and imputes ''groginess" to him
as a crime, as if he were in liquor like a
groom, and not in agony.
