Il B.iLKY HORSE.

A Canada paper gives room to the fol-
lowing curious mode of dealing with a
balky horse I would prepare myself
with a good strap-I want no whip ;
perhaps he has got good taste of that
already, ana still he is master. But
some day, when I was at peace with my
self and nil around, would hitch him
to the buggy, turning his head to the
village He goes half the way very we'll
i-,,spv,,l tir'ss rH-,c,--.- 4i;.sf. Ire has
gone far enough in that direction, and
stops. I step down; he expects me to
use the whip; he is mistaken. As a
criminal, I treat him on the silent sys.
tenn. push him back little out Of
the way. show him the strap, putting
it up to his nose. ] go to the off side
and buckle it to his fore leg, close up to
his breast, throwing the other end over
his shoulder; 1 then raise his near foot
and fix it with the hoof almost touching
the belly. This done, I say, Now, old
chap, you Just stand there" l don't
smoke, SO I take paper from my
pocket, and finding place where ] can
sit down, and he see me, begin to read.
: This is something he did not brgain for,
and the novelty of standing on three legs
somewhat diverts his mind from the
cause that stopped him. I TIM that is
the Chief point gained, and The most
humane. When the strap is taken off l
| show it to him, caress him little, and
we move on without irritation. The
strap will now become part Of the har-
ness for month or two, till at last the
sight OF it will act as talisman.

ROUND TO TEST 1T.

Prince Peter of Oldenburg is at the
head of the imperial Russian colleges
for girls, and is very diligent in per
forming his duties. One day he deter
mined to see for himself whether there
were any grounds for the numerous
complaints of the poor food furnished at
a convent, where 500 girls are being
educated. Proceeding to the institu-
ton, just before the usual hour, he
avoided the main entrance, and went
straight to the kitchen. At the door he
met two soldiers carrying huge, steam
ing caldron.
Halt !" he cried "put that kettle
down.
The soldiers, of course, obeyed.
"Bring me q spoon," added the
Prince.
The spoon was at once produced, but
one of the soldiers ventured to begin a
stammering remonstrance. .
"Hold your tongue |" cried the
Prince. "Take off the lid; insist on
tasting r
No further objection was raised, and
his Highness took large spoonful.
..You call this soup?" he exclaimed.
"Why, it is dirt, waterl"
ssIt is, your Highness, " replied the
soldier tive have just been cleaning oui

THE WOODEN MAN.
The most interesting statue to us, an

| The most interesting statue to us, and
perhaps the oldest image in Egypt, and,
ii SO, in the world, is the Wooden Man,
which was found at Memphis. This
image, one metre and ten centilnetres
high, stands erect, holding staff. The
figure is full Of life, the pose expresses
vigor, action, pride; the head, round in
form, indicates intellect. The eyes are
crystal, in setting Of bronze, giving a
startling look of life to the statue. 1t is
no doubt o portrait.
"There is nothing more striking,
saws its discoverer, than this image, IL
a manner living, of person who has
been dead six thousand years" He
must have been man of mark, and q
citizen of state well civilized; this is
not portrait of barbarian, nor was il
carved by rude artist. Few artists,
think, have lived since who could impart
more vitality to wood. And if the date
assigned to this statue is correct, sculp'
ture in Egypt attained its maximum Of
development six thousand years ago.
This conclusion will be resisted by
many, and on different grounds. heard
clergyman of the Church of England
say to his comrade, as they were looking
at this figure:
"It's all nonsense; SIX thousand years!
It couldn't be. That's before the crea-
ton of man."
"Well," said the other, irrevcrently,
"perheps this was the model. ."-Charles

K,osmos, OF "kumyss, the Russian
drink, is made of milk, sugar and yeast.
In Russia mares milk is used, but here
they take that of the COW. It is put up
in bottles with patent shoppers, and, SO
highly effervescent is it, that the only
way to open bottle without losing the
greater quantity Of its contents is to
turn it, head downward, in pitcher,
close the top Of the pitcher with cloth,
and then, inserting the hand, remove
the clasp from the cork as gently as pos.
sible. Its nutritive value is very great,
and it is not now widely known, on ac-
count Of its expense, as generally sold.
After the sugar and the yeast-an ounce
Of sugar and a piece Of compressed
yeast about the size of pea to each
quart Of milk--has been added, the fluid
is allowed to. stand in the bottles, un-
corked (the bottles not quite fully, until
fermentation has taken place, which will
be the case in eighteen or twenty-four
hours under favorable conditions. The
bottles are then corked and placed in a
cool place for week or two, when the
product is ready. The fermentation de-
yelopsa small quantityof alcohol. but the
regularity Of the new milk is that the
casein, instead Of being coagulated in
large Jumps, more or less diAicnlt to di-
rest, is separated in q very finely di.

assimilated by the weakest stomach.

OUEFN VIC AND TIE REPORTERS.

Queen Victoria, it is related, had the
pleasure of witnessing q remarkable
piece OF journalistic enterprise. When
iuncl..ng out -of-tloors with the Princess
Beatrice and few attendants the party
was surrounded by no less than eight re-
portsrs, who stood boldly looking on at
the consumption of cold lamb and salad
much, of course, to the Queens an
loyance. Finding that they did not
move, Princess Beatrice herself went
,cross to where they had planted them
selves, and said that the Queen had q
great objection to be stared at while she
vas at luncheon, and would be glad il
hey would leave. The young lady's
gentle remonstrance, however, had no
effect upon these amiable persons, who
murmuringly declined to depart. So
stronger measures were tried; and un-
der dire threats from an attendant the
disappointed journalists withdrew.

BLACK WALNUT FOR TIMBER.

The growing demand for black walnut
for timber, together with the acknowl-
edged scarcity of this wood. opens
road to proftablo planting. There are
so many uses to which walnut wood is
being put, such as its use by sewing
machine and furniture manufacturers,
that there could hardly be an over sup
ply. No doubt many persons have
fields from which but little profit now
comes and on which the walnut could be
successfully grown. The nuts of this
tree grow easily, and could thus be
planted where the tree is wanted. Usu.
ally. Seeding trees have first to be raised
in bed, and then transplanted when q
year or two old. But if the nuts Of
walnut lie sound, they sprout easily,
and one to hill, SO TO speak, will be
sufficient. Walnut trees grow very fast
and, when planted in rich ground, make
large trees, bearing nuts. in eight or ten
years. Ground should not be allowed
to remain idle. Be it ever so poor, there
is some profit to be got out Of it by ju,
dicious planting OF trees.

NEWSPAPER INFLUENCE.

Discussing the influence of American
newspapers upon the popular mind, the
Contemporary Review says "Perhaps
the most curious circumstance is the
fact that there is not single newspaper
at Washington, the national capital,
which has any influence in the country,
or even in the city itself. Formerly this
was not SO. Forty years ago the most
influential papers in the country were
published at Washington, and great
statesmen of both parties made use of
them for the discussion of constitutional
questions. They were read all through
the land, and they educated the people.
There are no such papers in America
now. and their place is not supplied. as
1T is in England. by the general publiea-
uon OF full reports of such speeches as
English statesmen are constantly max
ing, both in and out of Parliament. 1t
is difficult to overrate the value Of this
political education, which makes the
people of England familiar with the best
thoughts of her greatest men. There is
very little of this in America to-day. ]
am not quite prepared to indorse the
opinion expressed to me not long ago by
one of the leading journalists in En-
| gland, bnt there is too much truth in it.
He said American newspapers are be-
meath contempt The fact is that they
are news papers and nothing more. As
newspapers their enterprise is unsur-
passed by any in the world. 1t seems
to me that the English press is gravi-
tating in the same direction. The New
York papers are less provincial and more
generally read than any Others, but their
influence in the country is very much
less than it was twenty years ago. They
have larger circulation, but their edi-
torialsa are neglected, and they speak to
the people with no authority on political
questions. Quite as good papers are
published in some other cities but, as
a general rule. even the city papers are
badly edited, and made up chiefly of
sensational paragraphs with headings
worthy of Mark Twain. There are nota-
BILE exceptions to this rule, but they are
| few"

2. ]. White relates in the Providence
Press the following incident Of the war,
described to him, in company with Gen.

by the lady who was til, heroine OF the

and Gen. Garfield had seen important

She was young in 1856, and her lover
had gone into the Confederate army. In
one of the Kentucky batles he was des-
perately wounded, and d the Confeder-
ates were defeated he had to be left
upon the field. His sweetheart, with q
devotion which is the gory Of her sex,
accompanied only by 4 child, went to
the field almost beforethe battle was

AwFUL coyDrcr OF 4 Gro an.

A young man who was riding on the
New Haven railroad was boosting that
he never smoked any other cigars than
clear Havanas. As the car passed a
cabbage field the cigar that he was
smoking, being very strong, broke loose
and jumped out of the car window
and cried, :" must go and see my broth
ers, sisters and friends" and made
straightway for the cabbage-feld. The
young mans discontinue was SO great
that he went in the forward car and sal
there till the train reached its destina-
tion. The moral Of this story is never
to say that you smoke clear Havana ci'
gars particularly when you're passing
cabbage-farm. Puck.
