"Condition" has much to do with the
question OF ability to undergo severe la
Dor in inclcment weather without undue
hazard. Condition is a state of the
body not acquired in day, as all ex-
pericnced horSemen know Without
this, the trotting or the running horse is
well understood to possess no hardness;
in other words, no power of endurance
under hard pushing, and at the same
time = vital stamina that will enable the
possessor to ward off disease, though
hard pressed and over-heated. An at
tempt, often made by the novice to put
a horse in condition for hard labor by
suddenly increasing his feed, is inevita-
bly, followed by failure. Only system
of prudent, steady feeding. daily, vigor-
Gus exercise of the muscles being prac-
ticed at the same time, will insure sue
cess. If this be omitted, the animal
will perspire freely with even moderate
exercise. His heart will be found to
run up in the frequency of its motions,
humping against the ribs more or less
violently. This can easily be detected
by placing the ear over the region of
the heart, or, in fact, over any part of
the chest in proximity to the heart.
Suddenly feeding the horse up fixes a
tendency to this. Steady, muscular eX-
ertion builds against this tendency, and
virtually removes it, if the practice be
thoroughly carried out. Do not mistake
by supposing that these results will only
follow fast work. A severe pull-even
a single effort, if severe-will cause as
vigorous spasmodic efforts of the heart
as though the animal had been brought
to his best speed under the lash.-Na-
tiOnaI Lire-,StOck Journal, Chicago.

Ague Cure

Is a purely vegetable bitter and power
full tonic, and is warranted a speedy and
certain cure for Fever and que, CiifIli
and Fever, intermittent or Chill Ec-
yer, Renifttent Fever, Dumb Ague,
Periodical or Bilious Fever, and all
malarial disorders. In T1ia5Inatc dis
tricts, the rapid pulse, coated tongue, thirst,
lassitude, loss of appetite, pain in the back
and 1oins, and coltness of the spine and
extremities, are only premonitions of
severer symptoms, which terminate i'll tho
ague paroXysnl, succeeded by high fever
and profuse perspiration.
It is startling fact, that qrinine, arse
mic and other poisonous minerals, form the
basis of most Of the Fever and Ague
Preparations " Specifies" Syrups," and
"Tonics," in the market. The prepara-
tions made from these mineral poisons,
although they are palatable, and may
break the chill, do not cure, but leave the
malarial and their own drug poison in
the system, producing quinisnl, dizziness,
ringing in the ears, headache, vertigo. and
other disorders more formidable than the
disease they were intended to cure.
AYERS AGUE CURE thoroughly eradicates
these noXiouS poisonS from the system,
and always cures the severcSt cases. 1t
contains no quinine, mineral, or any thing
that could injure the most delicate pa
tient; and its crowning excellence, above
it's certainty to cure, is that it leaves the
system as free from disease as before the
attack.
For Liver Complaints, AYERS AGUE
CURE, by direct action on the liver and
hillary apparatus. drives ont the poiSonS
which produce these complaints, and stinl-
ulateS the system to a vigorous, healthy
condition.
We warrant it when taken according to
directions.

Professor Williams, of Yale College,
says the story of the beheading of Chin
Chin Chai, formerly Il student in New
Haven, Conn.,, must be apocryphal. He
cannot trace the letter said to have
been received, and is certain no behead-
ing could be done at Hong Kong, as re-
ported, for that is an English province.
He knew that the Government does not
behead for Christianity, nor as a penalty
for an affection for Christian girls.
Rector Gushing, who was Chin's teach
er, declares the whole story senseless
and untrue.

ton of young physicians from all parts
towards Kansas. The secret of it is the
new Liquor law. Liquors are only sold
on physicians prescription. Halt dol
lar is charged for prescribing two gills

the doctors will soon have all the money

sure to direct your mail to some postofiice
as then the postmaster at that Office will be
called upon to take proper care of it and

such return. There is no doubt that
great deal of trouble and delay in the deliv-
