AND USEFUL INFORMATION.
Fnnl Sheath in Horses

There is nothing that pulls a
horse down faster than foul sheath.
Farmers and all having charge of
horses should know that it is no
hard matter to clean a horses
sheath and keep it clean. The best
way is to feed good wholesome
food, that will prevent the disease;
but that cannot always be done,
and then we have to resort to
cure, which l find generally a very
easy matter. Pare the nails OF the
right hand smooth, and take as
much clean lard, free from salt, as
can be held by the points of the
fingers and thumb, insert the hand
to the bottom of the sheath, and as
the hand is Withdrawn leave all the
lard. Repeat the operation two or
three times at intervals of about
two days, and my experiences is that
in nine cases out of ten the horse
will be all right. If not, wash out
carefully with lukewarm water, but
it is bad plan to use the water in
very cold weather. l am now near
ly three score years old, but never
saw a case of foul sheath until
about twenty five years ago, and l
find now, when my horses are fed
on good pure hay. or well cured
corn fodder, free from all mold or
dust, that they are not troubled;
but while feeding Hungarian hay,
it is next to impossible to keep
them clean l have never seen a
horse troubled with that disease
while fed on good corn fodder.

An Afectionate Cow.

/ have read in your paper lately
many Interesting anecdotes of the
affection of animals, and l am
tempted to give you the following
instance OF the sagacity of the COW,
which occurred at Beaconsthorpe
some years ago to the nephew of a
deceased relative, from whose diary
l take the story:
A fine boy of about ten years of
age, the son of Mr.. Iyers, had for
some time been INDUCED in the
habit of milking a favorite COW; he
was one day doing so in a field adj
joining the barn-yard, when a mis-
chievous bull, which was in the
same field, ran at the child and
tossed him up; the COW, seeing its
innocent attendant thus treated. be-
came enraged, and, running furi-
ously at the bull. gored him so
dreadfully in the side as to render
him wholly incapable of renewing
the attack upon the child, which he
was about &c do. Mr.. Hudder-
stone, a neIghboring farmer, was
passing through the field at the
time, and took up the child in a
state of insensibility, but he had
received no very serious injury

One of these was a priest of the

Meantime little Lilline rushed out
from her watch-house and began to
bark very loud, for this gentle lit
tie creature, who never hurt or at
tackled any body. had yet, in some
wonderful manner, found out that
harm was about to be done to her
master. Henry had the dog taken
into an adjoining room. She began
TO bark still louder, and il a short
time the unhappy king was found
dead, stabbed by Clement to the

Onions.

From our own experience, and
the observation OF others, we can
fully indorse the testimony of the
st. Louis Miller, on the healthful
properties of the above esculent.
Lung and liver complaints are Ger
tainly benefited, often cured, by q
free consumption OF onions; either
cooked or raw. Colds yield to
them like magic. Don't be afraid
of them. Taken at night al offense

the digestive organs. An extract

well, but fried, roasted, or boiled on

The Little Ssntinels-

King Henry Ill of France was in
the habit of spending every year
large sums upoh pet dogs. Among
these he had three favorite Lap
dogs called Lilline, NJ imi and Til.
These little animals, which were
very beautiful, and had been
brought with great trouble from
Turkey, were such darlings of their
master that the king used to keep
them in a basket hung by a splen-
did chain from his neck. He even
trained his little dogs to act as
sentinels, and keep guard over him
when he slept. Stationed beside
the head of the kings bed. the
three little dogs stood Sc ntry in
turn, each for a time standing on
its hind legs, and supporting itself
against the tester of the bed, which
served instead of n sentry-box.

A War Anecdote.

Savannah News: During the late

at Savannah, was riding down his
picket line, and encountered a gen
uine son OF the Old Pine Tree State
on duty, VINO had taken his gun
apart with the intention of giving
it a thorough cleaning. The Gen
eral halted in front of him, when
the following conversation ensued
Look mere, my man, are you not

"Well, vas, bit of a oner'
Don't you know it is wrong to

Freak Of Nature.

b. W. d. Blanton makes the fol
lowing statement in the Richmond
IVA. Commonwealth: / butchered,
a few days ago, lot of pork
Among the lot was a blooded SOW
about five years old, weighing 225
pounds. In opening this hog, to
my SURF rise, L discovered a tube
about the size of a small reed run
ming from the stomach. passing par
allel with the throat on the upper
side of the windpipe, entering the
head between the left jaw-bone and
the brain. At this point / found u
natural stomach the size of a tur-
key egg, in which food was under
going a state of digestion. The
food entered her stomach by way Of
another tube extending down
through the lett jaw bone to the
mouth. To the truth of the above
statement l will testify on oath, as
will also some hall dozen others of
my family and neighbors who were
present.

Gilt Edged Butter.

A farmers wife who makes sweet,
gilt edged butter says she uses no
coloring, neither does she wash the
butter. She churns sweet cream at
a temperature CT GO degrees in a
dash churn. To make nice fresh
butter, 1T is necessary to arrange
that different members of the herd
should ''come in" at different peri
DDS. If the cows are fed on good
second crop hay the butter will
need no colorlng. She allows the
milk to stand from thirty-six to tor
weight hours, the cream being
kept in jars and well stirred, churn-
ing three times a week.

Danperous Sport.

indianapolis lind. Sentinel: DR..
Peck, of the surgical institute, yes
terday performed a surgical oper-
alton on the leg of young girl by
the name of Jordan, from Illinois,
sent here for treatment. The bones
of both her legs will have to be par
TALLY removed, and the little suf-
ferer will have to submit to two
painful operations. The cause of
her affection is from jumping the
rope" pastime engaged in gener-
ally by young girls. resulting In ne
crosis, or death of the bone. The
doctor stated to a reporter, in this
connection, that similar cases were
constantly occurring from this same
cause, but more frequently result
ing IN necrosis of the spine, and
that there has not been a month
passed but more or less cases of
this character come to the institute
for treatment. He says that rope
jumping produces continuous con
cussion on the joints which impiDge
upon the bone, causing at the first
stage periostitis, and finally result
in the death of the bona. He thinks
that parents and teachers should be
warned of this dangerous sport, and
eradicate it entirely from the play
grounds of children, as it is ruinous
In effects, and is the prime cause of
more cripples among the female
portion OF the community than
probably any other cause. He also
added that, during the practice of
his profession, deaths had been oc-
curing, coming under his observa-
ton, which was the result of this
pernicious pastime. In conclusion
he said: II would warn children
against rope-iumping, and would
advise parents and children to pro-
hibit it under all circumstances"

a boy of fourteen, was struck on
the temple and instantly killed, the

Paris Spring Fashions.

Lucy Hooper in the Philadelphia
Telegraph: The warm, lovely wealth
er is calling for the spring fashions
somewhat in advance of their Eas-
te- display. / note with pleasure
that the hideOus poke-b bonnet is
numbered with the things of the
past, and the bonnets of the season
are close, compact and shapely, as
indeed they ought to be to show of
TO any advantage the masses of
embroidery in gold, in silver, in col
ored beads, in jet, etc, ETC., where
with they are decorated. / saw a
capote shaped bonnet the other day
that was decorated in most tasteful
fashion. The white bonnet, with
the exception Of the brim, was COW
cred with fine, close embroidery
on gold thread upon black net.
This covering was drawn gracefully
aside at one side Of the bonnet to
give place to three iris blossoms ia
vivid shades of purple and lilac.
The combination of these rich tints
OF violet with the gold was very beau
tiful. Foulards are to be very
much worn this year. Some are
figured with small polka dots, and
others with small size flowers, plain
foulard being combined with these
patterns in making them up. Satin
is all the rage Tor full dress toilets
and costumes for ceremonious Wis
iting. 1t has driven all other forms
of silk materials out of the field al

while even brocades and pekins |

existence. Everybody wears satin

lve-green satin, prepared by Worth
for an American lady now residing

20 be worn for paying ceremonious
7isits. The skirt around the edge
s cut into long double loops, lined
With the same material as the dress, p
md falling over a plain founce
dyed with a narrow plated one.
The panier overskirt is edged with I
broad, rich passementerie IN ruby,
old and sapphire beads, and with
wide fringe to correspond. At c
ne back q satin drapery, edged L
nth black lace, falls in a single full
urve over a wide flounce OF black t
ice, set on in curves and continu- a
lg to the hem of the skirt. The '
aist is cut in a long, rounded i
ONT in the front, sloping upward
the sides, and cut long and
luare at the black, with two loops
illing over the point to match
nose on the skirt. The corsage is
lightly open at the throat, the
