- Councilman Forrest has had a letter

ing that the hose carts intended for this
city are about completed and are such
fine specimens Of workmanship that the
makers desire to hold them bark a few
days in order to exhibit them at the Me-

BURNING HORSES GUMS.
A Treatment Which a Veterinary Sur
geon Calls Cruel and Silly.

As a Louisville veterinary surgeon
was walking along street in the city
the other day, he came to a blacksmith
shop, and was attracted to enter by
preparations which were being made to
perform some sort Of surgical operation
upon horse that stood patiently with
in, while one of the blacksmiths was
trying to insert wooden gag between
its back teeth. The doctor entered,
and found that the party was making
ready to burn out the poor brute's
mouth as a remedy for an affection
known among horsemen as "the lam
pers." AS a member of the Humane
Society of Louisville, and an intelligent
friend of the equine race, the doctor
peremtorily forbade the cruel opera,
ton, and threatened the owner and op-
orator with the penalties of the law to
prevent creuelty to animals in case they
persisted. He came off victorious, and
the owner was compelled to give over
his designs. Talking with reporter a

Woman's Superiority.

Bill Arp in Atlanta Constitution.
l heard smart old man say once,
that woman who didn't have temper,
and show it now and then, was of no
account, for while man ought to be a
philosopher and 60 according to reason,
woman wasn't made that way. She
is full of emotions and is bound to show
them. She is up and down, ,now calm,
and now excited, according to circum>
stances. Her love is stronger, and her
dislike more intense. She has more
wonder and curiosity, more tenderness
and tears, more sympathy, and rever-
ence, and hope. In fact, she is a
purer, better creation, and was made
so because she was to be a mother and
the nurse of children.
Her prentice hand she tried on man,
ana tnen she maze the la8Ses.
/ was talking one day to nice lady
about women's rights, and she said
men and women both had too many
rights now, and INDUCED themselves
some that didn't belong to them,
"For instance" said she, "a man
has no right to be a fool, and no woman
has right to be homely."
"But how can she help it ?" 1 asked.
eff woman is born ugly as we call
it, it surely is not her fault"
"Of course not" said she; "but il
she was born that way she mustn't stay
that way. She can be good if she
wants to be, and she can be kind and
entertaining, and that will make any
woman pretty on neutrality-suspicious..
The homliest woman / ever knew wa;
the most fascinating and attractive.
And just SO the biggest Ounce of a mar

to; at least he can be q silent one, and

few moments afterward, the doctor un
bosomed himself upon the subject as
follows:
"The custom Of burning away the
gums of horses as a remedy for hampers
is, am sorry to say, a very common
practice. 1t is altogether cruel and
unnecessary, and the remedy is worse
in its effects than the so>called disease.
In fact, there is no such disease it is
merely swollen condition of the gums
induced by indigestion, and the RENE.
dies adopted should be directed to the
seat of the disease, the stomach, and
care should be taken to remove the
predisposing cause, which is improper
food or overwork, and usually both.
All local treatment should be palliative
merely, and the most heroic should not
go beyond simple scarifying of the
swollen gums to relieve the inflammation.
Think of burning away the gums en-
tirely and leaving the delicate and SEN
sitive part of the animals teeth ex-
posed to sudden changes of tempera>
ture or shocks involved from drinking
cold water or eating food with gritty,
ffinty ingredients like corn! 1t is per-
fectly horrible to treat a horse after
such fashion, and propose to use al
the influence of the Humane Society
backed by the powers of the law, tC
put stop to it in Louisville"
sis not this burning recommended by
the medical works upon the horse ?"
"No, sir; and nobody but a brut'
or an idiot, or what Is the next thing
to an idiot, the man who has no surgi
cal knowledge of treating a horses dis
ease, would ever resort to it. The fac
that it has been practiced for years b.
ignorant and heartless persons is no ar
gument in its behalf. 1t is wrong, infa
mously and radically wrong, and tn
