Heayes in Horses.

What is known as heaves in horses is
closely allied to asthma IL gets its
specific name from the heaving of the
TANKS caused by abdominal respiration.
There is difficulty in breathing, with a
short dry cough. followed by wheeling
noise in the throat. These symptoms
are developed sometimes into paroxysms
by labor, sudden change from warm to
cold. or after drinking cold water.
Heaves are almost always accompanied
by indigestion. manifested by a morbid
appetite and disposition to eat anything
and everything. The different stages
may be called functional and organic.
The first is often brought on by over
feeding on musty hay or innutritious
food. IL is curious fact that in New
England, where il was very prevalent
years ago, it has disappeared in proper
ton as clover hay is less used. and has
Travelled westward as clover has been
there introduced. Feed an idle horse

hay of any kind rs much as he will eat.
and then drive him briskly for ten or a
dozen miles. and the chances are he will

SeOlding.

No woman who would retain her true
ascendancy in her family can afford to
scold. 1t is the most undigniiied, be-
lifting, Disseminating, self-disrespecting
performance that any one can engage
in at any time, or under any circum-
stances, but it is especially so in the
case of a mother and housekeeper.
Scolding may be distinguished from
the giving of reproof. for which there is
often occasion in the best-regulated
families. by its being an expression of
personal irritability, and by the intend
ed effect of producing irritation and dis
comfort on those around. Its most
frequent form of expression is sort of
generalization which is usually false.
