The editor Of Turf. Field and Farm,
in the course of an editorial on the horse,
pays this eloquent tribute to mans equine
friend: THE horse plays an important
part in the industrial projects of the
world. Draw chair close to one Of our
sanctum windows and look out upon the
streets which surround the postoffice
block. The surface cars roll up and
down with scarcely break, and the
mind grows weary in the attempt to
count them. Each car is drawn by two
horses, and the ceaseless tread tells upon
feet sinews and wind. Express wagons,
drays, carts and other vehicles moved by
horses choke the thoroughfares, and even
shallow thinkers are impressed by the
fact that the one-toed quadruped has
become necessity to commerce. We
leave the city and take a run across
the country. The line is immaterial.
We may continue the journey day after
day and night after night, and not get
outside of the domain in which the horse
is power, is essential to the civilization
Of man. He draws the plow and the
reap r, and carries the bag to the mill,
The fuel which keeps bright and warm
the winter hearthstone, the bread with
which fast is broken, and the garments
with which nakedness is covered, are
brought to each village and farmhouse
door by the horse. The doctor, the post
man, the small tradesman and the tax.
gatherer also recognize our four-footed
friend as an important agent in keeping
up communication with isolated homes
and scattered communities. The wheels
Of agriculture and commerce would
move painfully slow were it not for the
horse. Wherever we go we see that there
is great practical want to be met, and
we are compelled to laud the efforts Of
those who try to fill this want"

How the Mexicans Captura Ants.

An automatic combination self-adiust-
ing ant trap and intoxicating machine
has been in use for years in New Mexico
and Arizona, which is worthy of careful
civilized attention. The chief blessing
Of that arid section is held to be mescal,
fiery liquor distilled from species of
cactus, and the principal curse is an i'm
mense- black ant that considers himself
proprietor Of any premises to which his
nest may belong. 1t is said that the ma
tives could not live without either the
muscal or the ants, for while it is only
mescal that can make Mexican's life
endurable with the ants, it is only the
ants that wake Mexican from the pro-
found coma into which the mescal
plunges him.
The ancient Mexican method of trying
to get rid of an ants nest was to fill up
the main hatch with fine gunpowder and
touch it off, keep fire boiling over it
night and day for week, or drown it
out with boiling lye. The only result
was that the ants would stay down cellar
until the trouble was over, and then
cheerfully repair the damage done to their
dwelling, and clay for" the Mexican in
the silent watches Of the night with
vigor and alacrity that were truly awful.
One day desperate Mexican poured
a quart Of mesca1 down his throat and
buried the bottle in the centre Of the
principal ants nest in his yard, with the
intention of filing it with gunpowder
and blowing both himself and his enc
mics out Of the territory. Having buried
thebottle to the neck, he went to the
traders to get the powder. When he
returned, he found that the bottle was
filed with ants, whom curiosity had
prompted to drop in, and who, unable to
climb out, were indulging in rough
and tumbIe free fight that did the Mexi-
cans heart no end Of good Another
bottle was quickly procured and filed,
and by sunset the Mexican found him
self proprietor Of seven quarts Of ants in
various stages of mutilation and wrath.
To shake these into a bonfire was easy,
and thus in a day the colony was broken
up forever.
The writer has seen two pounds Of rife
powder remmed into an ants nest and
prove ineffective in its destruction, while
by the bottle system the work was thor
oughly accomplished il less than d week
By the capture Of the last ant in the COM
munity Scientific 1merfcan.

A correspondent writes from Whitley
Court House, KY, to the New York Worla
as follows: ''There are only 900 people
men, women and children-in all tf
this county, yet the murders and assas-
sinations during the year outnumber the
births two to one. To anybody who has
ever lived for a time in this section Of the
couatry, or who has ever Travelled through
Harlan, Bell, Knott or Fletcher counties,
the statement is too common to excite
comment. But no one ever travels
through these mountains-for there are
not any railways to travel by--and no
newspaper correspondent ever writes
from Harlan county, so the murders, and
feuds, and assassinatio1s and brawls are
not made public. There are courts here,
of course, and judges and juries, as there
are in civilized communities, bat where
every juryman is related to the murderer
on trial, and where the judge has his own
life to take care of in lawless commu-
nifty, the idea of convicting prisoner
never occurs to those in court"

Much Of the work is done by the piece.

Some Ties.

We hear great deal about family ties
and railway ties. Many people advertise
ties, even family ties, as when Eliza Ann
is implored to return to her distracted
family and all will be forgiven.
We hear, teo, a good deal about ties
of blood but we never had the un-
pleasant idea brought SO wildly to our
mind as on seeing young man the other
night nnder an electric light with scarlet
cravat and an ivory skull and crossbones
pin stuck in the middle. We have seen
ties at billiard and baseball matches.
There are ties in music, in architecture
and in elections There is typhus
(people generally make good deal Of
phus over this tye), and there is typo
graphy, which is quite a nice kind Of
tyc But the worst sort and description
Of tye is mans wife, that is to say,

A Terrible struuaIe with Maniac.

had little adventure on Goat Island
one afternoon last summer, which will
keep me away from Niagara Falls as long
as I live. 1t was during the last of Au-
gust. I was there to meet New Yorker
on business, and I had to waste whole
day for him. During the afternoon Of
the first day went over to Goat Island.
When / had walked clear down to the
brink Of the American Falls, just where
the bridges start to run out, I sat down
in the shade to rest. There were two or
three people round there at the time, but
they soon went away, and for half an
hour was all alone. Then a single per-
son approached. He was tall, black
eyed man powerfully built, and having a
troubled look on his face. He halted
near me, looked at me as if trying to es-
tabhsh my identity, and heard him
growing and muttering At length he
shouted at me:
'eWell, are you ready2"
t'For what?" Iasked.
ITO go over the fallsm
was on my feet like fash, for it had
struck me that he was insane. I was no
sooner up than he sprang at me with a
curse, and the next moment we were
struggling there on the bank, not six feet
from the water and not over forty from
the brink Of the falls. The fellow did
not try to push me over, but rather to
drag me with him. In rough-and-
tumble with him | would have had no
show, but in seeking to grasp my throat
he got his thumb in my mouth, and 7
shut down on it with all my might I
am famous in the gymnasium for my
left-handers. I planted my fist in his
face whenever the chance offered. He
was human bulldog. | bit his thumb
to the bone, but he never WINGED. Twice
he had me so near the brink that gave
myself up for lost, but l rallied on him,
and finally planted blow on his neck
which made him wilt.
When I got away from him I rushed
up the bank and down the path a few
rods, and then, laugh as you may, ]
tumbIed in heap and came so near
fainting away that everything turned
dark for moment. It was five minutes
before the weakness left my knees so that
/ could walk, and at once made tracks
for the mainland. Before I reached the
island bridge met party Of gentlemen,
and went back with them to secure the
lunatic. He was not to be found. The
toll takers of the bridge remembered Of
his passing over in the morning, but he
never returned. The island was thor
oughly searched, but nothing could be
found of im.-Detroit Free Press.

NUMBER 81.


The walls Of the stomach are thin and
elastic, and may Be temporarily diIated
BY oYermuch food, or BY gas generated
by the decomposition Of food. AdiIatad
stomach, crowding against a heart enfee-
bled BY fatty degeneration, or by any
other cause, may 50 far hinder the action
Of the latter as to result ii sudden
death.
But the stomach may become perma-
nently dilated, and enormously so. In
the latter case, the two openings
entrance and the exit-may be % affected
as to make it difficult for it to eject food
into the intestines.
The muscular walls Of a dilated stom-
ach are weakened. This causes the
food to remain too long in sometimes
several days. The food thus retained
decomposes into a number Of irritating
acids and annoying gases. The worst
forms of dyspepsia result
Such dilatation may be due to dis
eased narrowing Of the pyIorus the
opening BY which the food passes from
the stomach-or to its obstruction by
tumors of various kinds, thus hindering
the passage Of the food through it. Or
the coats Of the stomach may have Be-
come weakened by disease; OF the nerves
of the stomach, on which its peristaltie
action depends, may have lost their nor
NAL irritability.
Habitual overeating also causes this
dilatation. All persons are liable to il
who overload their stomachs with either
food or liquids, especially with beer.
clearest evidence of dilatation is the ha
bitualretention Of food in the stomach
over night.
Tis dilataion is faequent in children,
especially among those fed arti6cially.
But it Is not confined to them. Many
mothers nurse their children at night
almyst continuously. Such infants have
good appetites-for their food does not
duly nourish them-but they are badly
troubled with indigestion, collie, and
diarrhea. Their abdomens are distended.
The only relief is in more proper feed
ing.
1t is the same with adults, though the
muscular tone of the stomach may be
strengthened by tonics The worst cases

Lost HIS SatcheI.

A quiet-looking gentleman walked
down railway platform in search OF
place in a train which was almost full.
He stopped before a car in which there
was vacant seat-no, not quite vacant;
on it stood small black satchel. ssRoom
here2" demanded the quiet gentleman.
ssNo, growlGi the stout one. s'No one
is sitting theren-pointing to the satchcl
SCOT out--coming back-his satcheln
growied the stout passenger. The new
conner had his own views as to how far
this vague answer was trustworthy. for
he said, in his quiet tones, ~ will sit
there until your friend returns" The
train began to move ''Your friend IS
late, n said the quiet one. The train was
fairly in motion. fsYour friend has lost
the train, exclaimed the quiet one, in
tone Of sympathy, "but, he added, he
shant lose his property lp-and he hurled
the black satchel out Of the window on
to the platform The stout traveller made
an Intellectual effort to save the satchel,
and then burst out into language not that
of blessing. The bag was, Of course, his
