1T has long been a disputed question,
among horsemen, whether a horse gets
sick or dies of bots, but there is no ques.
ton as to the fact that horses have bots
in their stomachs, which get there by
the horse swallowing the nits deposited
on their bodies by the crooked fly, which
the horse so much dislikes. The nits
hatch in the stomach and grow to be
bots, and pass from the horse the next
summer, grow wings to fly around and
deposit nits again on the horse. The
nits are easily scraped Off with q sharp
knife, and II every horse was thus freed
from them before they are swallowed, al
most, two years would entirely rid the
country Of bots and free the horse OF tina,

UMBRELLAS.

There is language of umbrellas as
well as of flowers. For instances, place
your umbrella in rack and it will indi-
cate that it will change owners. To
open IL quickly in the street, means that
somebody's eye is going to be put out !;
to shut it, that hat or two is to be
knocked off An umbrella carried overa
woman, when the man sgetting nothing
but the drippings of the rain, signifies
counting. When the man has the
umbrella and the woman the drippings,
it indicates marriage. To punch your
umbrella into q person and then open
it, means, Il dislike YOU" To swing
your umbrella over your head signifies
II am making nuisance of myself
To trail your umbrella along the foot
path means that The man behind you is
thirsting for your blood. To carry it at
right angles under your arm signifies
that an eye is to be lost by the man who
follow you. To open an umbrella quick
ly, it is said, frightens mad Lull To
put cotton umbrella by the side of u
silk one signifies " Exchange is no
robbery To purchase an umbrella
means, 81 am not smart but honest
To lend an umbrella indicates, 81 am o
fool" To return an umbrella means
we'll, never mind what it means, nobody
ever does that ! To turn all umbrella
in a gust of wind presages profanity.
To carry your umbrella in a case signifies
it is shabby ONE To carry an umbrel-
la just high enough to tear out mems
eyes and knock Off mems hats signifies
81 am a woman" To press an umbrella
on your friend, saying sob, do take it
I had much rather you would than notl''
signifies lying. To give a friend half
your umbrella means that both of you
will get wet. To carry it from home i'll
the morning means that sit will clear
off,,

BUILDING STONE.

The sandstone commercially known as
freestone, which is extensively used for
building purposes in American cities
is subject to disintegration from the
action of the sulphurous acid, produced
by the consumption of coal and from
frost There is much difference in the
ability of various quarries to withstand
these destructive influences The outer
surfaces of some buildings in New York
and Philadelphia have been, by the
advice of an eminent chemist,
treated with mixture of paraffin and
carbolic acid with apparently good re-
suits. The fiat surfaces are warmed by
means of stove like plumbers stove,
but with flat side, and the paraffin
when applied in a melted condition,
penetrates the stone readily-it is said
that in some instances to the depth of
one and a half inches holdings and
carved work are heated by means of o
blast flame from India rubber bags of
illuminating gas Another process has

suits do not appearto be of satisfactory
nature on account of its tendency to
crack. In this process the mixture used
is an artificial stone, and consists of
three parts glass sand, three parts
broken marble, two parts anhydrous
clay and two parts freshly slaked lime
still warm After coat of the above
has been applied, washed in with water
on the following day. The central por-
ton and wings of the Capitol building
at Washington were originally built of
freestone, which desintegrated SO
rapidly as to threaten the performance
of the structure, and the whole was
pro, ectedby several coats ofwhite paint.
The wings afterwar,l added to the above
and now used for their House of Rep
resentatives and Senate Chamber, are
built of white marble, which conforms
in color to the central portion of the
building, SO that the whole building,
appears to he made of marble.

MUST LIE DOWN TO REST.

Says an authority on horses To a
Woodworking horse repose is almost as
much necessity as good food, but tired
though he may be, he is often very slry
to lie down, even when clean bed is

down regularly, his rest is never COM

sleep in a standing position continne TO

TILL He KILLED HIS PIG.

Lawyer V, who can tell story as
well as any living man, was once urged
to relate one of his experiences.
"Well," said he, when I was
young man and had just passed my ex-
animation, and been admitted, hadn't
much money. had made up my mind
to get to work at once and not to run in
debt. The first question was, where
should l hang out my shingle? After a
60 ii deal of consideration, 1 made up
my mind to visit the town of s. and
see what chance there was for young
lawyer there. AS I trudged along, I
drew near to apparently the only hotel in
the place. A man in his shirt sleeves
was seated in the chair outside the hotel
The chair was tilted against the wall,
and the man was smoking short pipe.
This is the hotel I believe, I said
"' Yes, said the man, blowing out
cloud of smoke.
IS Where can I find The proprietor !?
Iasked.
GO I'm the mau, was the answer.
"'W Well said |, I'm young lawyer,
and I came here to see whether there
was an opening
81 guess there is the landlord said;
a lively young fellow that will act
square and not charge over much will
get along here, reckon
"' Glad to hear it, said [, adding, I
should want room and board at mod
crate rate.
"' There's room right upstairs on
the first floor, said the Landlord there
it is pointing with his pipe to the win
dow; go right upstairs and look at it.
"' But about the price P I asked
"' Go up and look at it, the landlord
said, and we'll talk about the price
afterward.'
ct went up and saw the room. It
was small and scantily furnished, but it
would do. When 1 came down the
landlord asked me how 1 liked it, and 1
said it would suit.
as But how about the price for room
and board p I asked.
"' Well settle that after you've got
fairly started, said he.
81 insisted, however, that it be settled
at once, and at length the landlord
said,-
VIII two dollars and a half wccl,
meet your view?'
&C You may be sire it did, and the bar
gain was made. Well, hung out my
shingle and sat down at small table
spread with paper and few law books
and pen and ink to wait for clients.
After waiting two or three days, knock
came to my door and l said, Come ill.,.
Business ut last, 1 thought to myself.
The door opened and q shock-headel,
roughly-clad man entered.
sc Is the lahyer in ? he asked, in nm
unmistakable Irish brogue.
"' I'm the man. said; come in and
sit down, and offered place on my
trunk as 1 had not a second chair. lie
came forward, sat on the edge of the
trunk, and nervously fingered his bat
tered hat. After few questions found
out what he wanted aud that he had
q good case, and told him so.
"' And what shall have to pay you?'
he asked.
Never mind that now, said I;
we'll settle that when I've won your case.
"You're moighty kind, he said 'and
it makes me bold to AK We favor. Will
yer honor lind me the loan of twinty-
foiye cints till kill me pig2"
"This might have disheartened some
new beginners, but it didn't me. I lent
him the twenty-five cents and won his
case for HIM. He became a prosperous
man and was my client till the last, and
brought other clients to boot"
