Stanehion Torture.

An eastern correspondent denounces
the use of stanchions in fastening cattle.
They are generally used by farmers be-
cause cattle, when confined in them,
can be placed close together, and they
are, perhaps, less troublesome than
other fastenings. Universal custom, also,
has great deal to do with their use.
but this does not lessen their torture to
cattle. Anyone who has seen the re-
peated struggles and efforts of cow
trying to get up when fastened in stanch-
ions ought to be convinced, he thinks,
against their use. Besides, they keep
the muscles and cords of the neck in
fixed position, and prevent the animal
from licking itself-which is unnatural
and from moving about in the stable-a
decided relief to cattle in stalls. The
most comfortable fastening, according
to the writer, is chain about the neck,
with ring attached to post, on which
it viii slide up and down. This would
allow the animal to raise and lower its
head, TO lick its body, and to get up and
down with ease. He describes stable
which is as nearly perfect as any he
ever saw In it each cow is allotted a
space of three feet in width for standing
room. The platform On which the cat

with half-inch inclination toward the
gutter, which is at the rear, to receive
the droppings. This is six inches deep
and fourteen inches wide. In the rear
of the gutter there is passage-way,
three feet six inches wide. The feeding
rack in front of the COWS is two feet, six
inches wide and boarded up next to the
cattle two feet high, but cut down one
foot directly in front of each cow to en-
able the animal to lower her head and
neck on line with her body when lying
down. There are no partitions between
the cows, and they can readily turn
their heads out of the feedrrack around
to their bodies, or they can lie down
lengthwise of the rack if they choose.
The COWS soon learn their position in
the stable, and march up to their posts
to receive the chain around their necks.
He has never seen any cattle injured in
stables, nor any abortions, which often
occur as result of torture and strain
ing.

Her PRAYERS.

The LIS are as nice couple as you
will find in New York, hospitable, warm
hearted and happy, bat not especially
interested in spiritual matters. They
have two beautiful young children
whom they are training for useful lives,
but whose instruction IN religious affairs
they have thus far postponed. A few
evenings since, Picnic, the new maid, a
bright and intelligent eolered girl, was
requested to put Miss Inez (aged y to
bed. Now IneE, like many of her ED
ers in wishing TO disguise her lack OF IN
formation on subjects of which she is
ignorant, SO, though she hadn't the
most remote idea what saying her pray
ers meant, she did not admit the fact,
but endeavored to avoid the issue by q
little fnessing. Her efforts in this di-
rection, however, were not successful.
for the pious Picnic, misapprehendingg
the object of her strategy, placed her OH
her knees, and stern1y commanded her TO
begin her devo5ions. There was no help
for poor Inez now. She had either to
openly confess that she didn't know
what her companion was talking about,
or say something that seemed ike com.
plianee. She did the latter, and to the
surprise and horror of her pronipser,
launched out into A, b, G, ID, Z. etc, to
the end of the alphabet. -Elecdted Ifdtt-
