Sometimes an ounce of prevention is
worse than pound of disease. One
day last week the children came run
ming in, shrieking that a big hawk was
circling over the poultry-yard. Old
Farmer Thistlepod dropped his paper,
caught his trusty gun from the rack,
and charged for the poultry-yard. He
ran right over bee stand just the
other side of the cypress bush, and was
stung in thirty places before he jumped
over the fence of the poultry-yard
alighting upon the old black hen that
was brooding thirteen chicks, breaking
her neck, and MASKING five hapless
"weetles :" the gun caught in the fence
as he jumped, and went off, killing a
young turkey. and filling the Durham
heifer in the meadow nearly full of
buckshot; while the hawk, alone calm
and self possessed in the midst of the
tumult and confusion, sailed gracefully
away with one spring CHI cken he had all
along intended to levy on.-Robert j.

London has giant horses. Some of
the brewers have animals that are ele
phantine in bulk. In no other place
have we seen horses of such size and
strength. These mammoth horse are
very expensive, and are not so servicea-
BILE as the smaller varieties.
The London railway carriers run q
fine line of horses, carrying produce to
market. All the hours of the night
these teams dash through the streets,
awakening the echoes of the sleeping
city.
Like all other cities, London is much
indebted to the horse. People are at
tracted to menageries to witness curl
Gus and rare animals, but there never
was an animal of such exquisite symme-
try and intelligence as the horse that
hauls the menagerie to the circus
grounds. We are not surprised that
men should like horses, or that boy
should wistfully desire the possession
of smart pony to carry him down
country lanes and through busy streets.

a Terrib e Alternative.

An engineer on the New Pine Creek,
JERSEY Shore and Buffalo railroad
climbed a rock bluff on Pine creek to
make an observation. He was holding
on to small tree, some fifty feet up the
almost perpendicular bluff, when he was
alarmed by seeing huge rattlesnake
preparing to spring at him. In flash
he had to decide whether to drop to the
bottom of the bluff and probably break
his neck, or to grasp the snake with his
other hand. He chose the latter as the
lesser of the two evils, seized the rat
tlesnake with firm grip in the left
hand, hurled it from him down the prec'
ipice and saved his own life.-Bay city
