A LITTLE SUFFERER
CIsansed, Purified and Beautihed by the
Cuticura Remedies.

II affords me pleasure TO give you this
report Of the cure of our little %grandchild
by your Cuticura Remedies. When SIX
months old his left hand began to swell
and had every appearance OF a large boil.
We poulticed 1t, but all to no purpose.
About five months after 1t became n run
ming sore. Soon other sores formed. He
then had two of them on each hand, and
as his blood became more and more i'm
pure it took less time for them to break
out. A sore came on the chin, beneath
the under lip, which was very offensive.
Ills head was one solid scab discharging a
great deal. This was his condition Mt -

him, his mother having died when he was

having no use in his hands. | immedia-
tely commenced with the Cuticara Rene
dies. using the Cuticura and Cuticura
Soap freely, and when he had taken one
bottle of the Cuticura Rcsolvent his head
was completely cured, and he was improv-
ed in every way. We were very much
encouraged, and continued the use OF the
Remedies for a year and half. One sore
after another healed, a bony matter form
ing in each one of these five deep ones
just before healing. which would finally
grow loose and were taken out; then they
would heal rapidly. One of these ugly
bone formations | preserved. After taking
a dozen and n halt bottles he was compile
tely cured. and is now at the age of
years n strong and healthy child. The
scars On his hands must always remain;
his hands are strong, though we once
feared he would never be able to use
them. All that physicians did Tor him did
him no good. All who saw the child before
using the Cuticura Remedies and see the
child now consider it a wonderful cure. If
the above facts are OF any use to you. you
are at liberty to use them. Mrs. l.. s.

PAN AND sYRlNx.

There was "A secret vale in Already,
Wherein grew many II flower sweet to
smell,
And many a pleasant shadow of a tree
Darkened the slant sides of the cup-like
dell:
And day and night did birds make
melody,
And n clear streamlet slipt through fern
and brake,
Singing until 1t ceased within a lake.
And often when the drowsy summer heat
Had wrought a longing for some little
rest,
Here from the chase did Artemis retreat.
With bow unloosened and bare snowy
breast;
And maidens following with buskined
feet
Trooped through the fern that bathed
them to the knee.
While the red staghounds leapt beside in
glee.

1 have no sympathy for skin-flint saw

You say it is impossible now to lay up
anything for a rainy day. l know it,
but we are at the daybreak of national
prosperity. Some people think it is
mean to turn the gas low when they go
out of the parlor. They feel embarrassed
if the door-bell rings before they have
the hall lighted. They apologize for the
plain meal if you surprise them at the
table. Well, it is mean if it is only to
pile up a misery hoard. But if it be to
educate your children, if it be to give
more help to your wife when she does
not feel strong. if it be to keep your
funeral day from being horrible beyond
all endurance because it is to be the dis
ruption and humiliation Of the domestic
circle-if it be for that, then it is mag
nificent.-Dr. Talmage.

HORSE FLESH AS o o


English Speaking People Do Not Take
Kindly to the idea.
English speaking people have never
taken kindly to the idea of eating horse
flesh, although some persons in this
country and many more in England
have, from time to time, strenuously ad-
vocated its use. The belief, however,
that large quantities of horse meat are
fraudulently sold for more orthodox
meats in the latter country, has recently
provoked the people of Manchester and
Stafford to call a public meeting and pc
tition parliament to pass an act to COM
pei butchers, who sell horse flesh, to
label it as such.
In Paris, Berlin and Vienna, the popu-
lar consumption of horse flesh seems to
be constantly increasing. In 1877 there
were slaughtered for food, in Paris, 10,-
.619 horses and mules, and in 1873 the
number increased to II, $40. In the win
ter seasons of these two years there
were slaughtered in Berlin about 6, 1000
horses, the flesh of which was mainly
used for sausages. The central horse
Strengthening establishment of Berlin
comprises an acre of land, upon which
are buildings for the inspectors, stables,
etc. Every morning the horses to be
slaughtered are mustered for inspection,
and such as appear diseased are con
demned to the knockers. 1t is stated
that good horses are generally bought
for this purpose, the butchers buying
many young horses from the farmers
and breeder, which, for various reasons,
are not considered desirable to raise.
An enthusiastic French scientist de-
clares that the flesh of horses is more
digestible than that of other animals,
and it never contains the germs of tape
worms or other parasites which afiict
the human race. If physicians have to
prescribe raw meat, he thinks the flesh
of the horse should be chosen in prefer
ence, because it is more healthy, palat-
able and nutritious than that of the OK,
sheep or pig
DR.. Billings observes that poor men
are often compelled by a tyrannical law,
the result of n sickly, disgusting senti-
ment. to sacrifice to the knacker, who
pays them nothing, horses that a few
weeks suitable feeding and rest would
make worth $40 to $50 for meat. Hun
dreds of so-called weeds are yearly
born and raised by farmers and breeders,
to be at maturity, simply objects of tor
ture from their unfitness for work, that
at 4 to 6 months old would pay a reason
able profit to the owner as horse veals,
for the expense of rearing and breed

The use of horse meat was at one time
All almost universal custom among the
pagan people of northern Europe and it
may be that the rapidly increasing popu-
lousness OF modern nations, and conse-
quent difficulty of procuring food by the
poorer classes, may in time, swing the
custom round again. But it can neve
prevail in this country while food is as
abundant and cheap as at present. Even
if it be wholesome and palatable, it will
take generations to remove the feeling of
repugnance to its use.-New York
