the proper entries in the books or turn

thieving was continued until August

larger than usual. On September 2 he
was discharged from our employment.
He had stolen probably $4,000 alto.

members Of the Exchange, to make a

WOman'S Health.

81 would, says Gail Hamilton, "that
women were happier" The wish meets
an evident need, but if Gail had gone to
the root of the matter she would have
said, 81 would that women were health
ier." it has come to be commonplace
truism that health holds, in itself, the
secret of all life's success, but its full
significance has never yet been ade-
quately appreciated. Women are apt
to regard the measure of health as
men if they are not actually i'll. Now
true health is positive, rather than Il.
negative state. 1t is physical exhilara-
ton; it is the state where duty becomes
delight, when the surplus energy Graves
eXertion. In this state the keen morn
ing air is like wine, and life takes on a
zest, glow, sparkle. This is the
physical state that renders possible men,
tai enthusiasm, spiritual eXaltations.
60 I'm so nervous signs q woman
whose life is set in the midst of all COM
forts and perhaps luXuries. But where
fore? What need is there of being $50
nervous" when exercise, sleep, and
proper food are attainable? GA
woman of twenty ought to be as much
ashamed of being dyspeptic as of being
drunk" severely says the scintillating
Gail, and it is true, even if severe. If
women can once become regenerated
with the fact that a state of vigorous,
robust health is quite compatible with
intellectual power and refinement, and
being only negatively well is not neces-
sarily synonymous with a lady, it will
do more for womau's advancement
than all the ballots she could cast be-
tween Boston and San Francisco.
Probably, however, she requires the dis
cipline of political Embarrassment to
educate her up to wider views of life
and its possibilities and its deep signifi
cances.=BOSton Monitor.

Care of Horses i'm Winter.

In warm, properly ventilated stables,
it is doubtful whether horse ought to
be blanketed, but in cold stables there
is no doubt that he should be; also in
all cases when stopped in cold weather
on the road. 1t is better when horse
comes in warm and sweaty to rub him
dry before feeding or watering. Horses
are much like human beings; they take
cold by exposure as q man will. They
should be carefully treated, and never
be allowed to stand long in cold weather
in s. sweaty condition without being
blanketed Many horses are ruined by
exposure and drinking cold water when
warm and sweaty.
The average farmer is slow to learn
the value OF carrots for horses. They are
so nutritious that livery men and some
others feed considerable quantities reg
uIarly to their horses instead of grain.
Many consider that 1 quarts OF oats and
the same of carrots is as good feed
for horse as quarts of oats, and
horses that are worked little more than
for mere exercise will keep in good con-
dition and look sleek and smooth on hay
and carrots alone. An occasional feed
of raw potatoes is also good for horses,
especially to give a smooth, glossy coat,
and if troubled with worms it tends to
clear them away.-W. II. White, an
Country Gentleman.
