its contribution to Equify the dirt on our

satisfied with giving some hearty imoreca-

4 joke On n Horse.
Detroit Free Prrs.I

Detroit Free PTrss.I
One of the commission houses on
Woodbridge street has A horse which
was the terror of every pedestrian who
got within three feet Of his head. The
animal has teeth like a shark, and up
to a few days ago he'd bite everything
within reach except \ pile of grind.
stones. Whipping had no effect, and
he would get rid of muzzles as fast as
they were put on. The firm had paid
out considerable money to settle for
his bites, and was wondering what
they could sell him for, when along
came a man who guaranteed q cure
for five dollars. He wss told 10 go to
work, and bis first move was to get an
old suit of clothes and stuff it with
straw. The horse Wss driven down
the street, and the suit was tied 10 q
hitching-post, back 20 the street. a
full pound of Cayenne pepper was
then rubbed into and spTinkIed over
the garments and the straw stufiDg,
and the joke was ready. The horse
came jogging back, and the driver
left him standing within six feet Of
the man of straw. The old bitsr's
eyes had a twinkle as he saw a fine
chance to use his teeth, and as soon as
left alone he began edgiDg toward the
post. When ready for business be
made a sudden lunge and caught tho
''man" by the shoulder. That old
horse meant wiCkedness, but be had q
surprise in store for him. As he lifted
the figure off its feet and gave 1t IL
shake it fell apart, and his mouth,
nose, and eyes were filled with the
smarting powder. Great tears rolled
down his long nose, he sneesed, and
snorted, and coughed, and he was just
as chagrined at the general laugh on
him as a man would have been. He
backed away from the remnants,
opened his mouth to cool it, and hung
his head in shame. He did not cease
weeping for day, but when he got 50
he could look the public square in the
face he was a changed horse. Any
body can pail his ears or rub his nose
with imPunity. In fact, he courts
caresses where he defed them, and on
the approach of a stranger viii shut
his eyea and mouth as if fearful Of an
other dose.

GOneral Garfsld,s rsl,h.

Elder Hendryx, General Garfeld's
pastor at Mentor, says:
"Oh, you should hear Gen. Garfield
talk on religious subjects. He pays
little attention to mere religious for
malities, but he is a man of profound,
immovable faith. He believes that
God guides every step that he takes.
He is never worried by anxiety in re
gard to himself or his personal affairs.
He trusts implicitly in a particularly
personal Providence, whose care Tor
him is never-ceasing and all-sufficient.
He has the most exalted and joy-giving
views of the divine character, and his
conversation on spiritual subjects is
purifying and uplifting to every
hearer. When I become weak or dis
couraged, 1 go to General Garfield
and counsel with HIM, and always re
oeive refreshment and strength. He
has greater faith in God than any
other man I ever saw.

How inconsistent We arei How
childish and cowardlyH II a railroad

generally much more than the COW or
pig was worth. When people break
their legs or necks jumping on or off
cars the cry is: "Make the road
pay" We know n widow in certain

road because her husband was killed
by a train falling through a rotten
bridge. But in the same city were
widows enough-starving in garrets
and cellars-whose husbands had been
killed by whiskey- And they had no
recourse.
