Easy Hour, in a recent issue says: "But
one of the most important Developments
concerning ST. JACOBS On is the discovery
that it has properties which are beneficial
to the animal as well as to the human
species. 1t has, Of late, been in active de-
mand among livery men and others for use
on horses suffering from sprains or abra-
sions. The most prominent instance known
Of in this connection, is that related by Mr..
David Walton, well-known Friend, who
keeps livery stable at 1915 North Twelfth
street. Mr. Walton states that he was
boarding valuable horse belonging to
Benjamin McClurg, also a resident of
North Twelfth street. A few weeks ago
the animal slipped and badly sprained his
leg, making him very lame. Mr.. Walton
used two bottles of ST. JACOBS OH on the
animal and found within less than one
week, that there was no need for any more,
for the animal was as well as ever.

An Execution In Persia.

This practice, which was adopted
partly from the exigencies arising ont Of
the conquest of the multitudes of China
by mere handful Of Tartar soldiers,
was continued. and became an integral
portion of the Manchu system of govern
ment, and the result has tended to con-
firm the wisdom of the founders of the
present dynasty. The popular views on
the subject of the pigtail have not yet
been ascertained with any degree OF GER
titude; but it may remarked that all
the Instructions of the last twenty
years have put forward, as one Of their
features, the intention to renew this
practice, which has there been repre-
sented as a badge of conquest. There
now, however. seems more chance than
ever Of its perpetuation. London Globe.
The execution of a Persian maraude.,
which recently took place at Teheran,
is described by the Armenian journal
Mchak as being very "brilliant." This
journal says: "Early in the morning a
large crowd filed the parade ground,
and about twelve o'clock the condemned
man was led out in great pomp to the
sound Of trumpets. Upon large plat
form in the middle Of the square was
placed cannon with its muzzle raised
upward. After Djalel Agha had recited
brief prayer, the executioner and his
assistants attached him securely to the
mouth of the cannon, and then applied
match to the touch-hole as coolly as
if they were lighting their pipes. The
explosion followed instantaneously, and
the body of Djalel Agha, blown into
thousand pieces, was hurled into the
air. Of all his bones only one rib was
found whole, and this was given up to
his wives, who had been present at the
execution. In short time this will be
looked upon as sacred relic"

A GRAND STEEPLE CHASE.

As if there were not sufficient excitement
at the usual horse-racc, these meetings on
the turf nearly always close with a grand
steeple chase. This kind of race combines
all the excitement of the regular race, with
the super-added element of danger which
seems to give further zest to the sport.
Horses, and good ones at that, often receive
severe injuries, which render them practi-
cally useless for long periods. AT least
this was the state of affairs until owners
and breeders of fine stock began to freely
use ST. JACOBS OIL, the Great German
Remedy for man and beast. This invalu.
able article to horsemcn has SO grown into
favor on account of its phenomenal efficacy
in diseases of domestic animals, especially
the horse, that n would be difficult indeed

its magical potency. The Philadelphia

There is young girl in Kansas who

to that place several years ago with

has about thirty acres under cultivation,
comfortable house, well furnished,
and other valuable improvements. She
