FAST WALKING HORSES.

Why Farmers Should Raise None But
Spirited, Energetic Animals.
Profits are small on the farm and all
waste must be prevented ito make both
ends meet Waste of time is one OF
thu things to be looked after as closely
as any thing else, and with it the kind
of horses that are kept has considera-
BILE to do. Compare the distance trav-
eled in a day by strong, sturdy. fast
walking team, with that which slow,
creeping team will travel, and the diff
ference will be surprising. If this diff
ference of a day is SO noticeable, what
must that of year or the average
lifetime of a horse beP If the slow
team pulls a plow or draws load but
twenty miles per day, while the other
covers twenty-five miles with as little
fatigue, it is easy to calculate what the
difference would be in a year, and how
long it would take to gain whole
years time by using the active in
stead of the slothful horses. As
the most of farm work is done
at the walking gait, it is then
the duty of the farmer to look after the
walking qualities Of the horses he
breeds as much as it is for those who
breed fast horses to look after the speed
producing qualities of the horses they
rear. While much depends upon the
training of a horse as to whether he is
fast walker or not, there is a great
deal in the breeding. Some horses are
naturally fast walkers, and, like natu-
raj fast trotters or PAGERS. can stand to
work at their natural gait much
better than those which acquired
the habit Of walking fast by
being pushed. Active. energetic
horses, with an inclination for getting
over the ground with strong, square
walk. will be more apt to produce colts
that will be success in this direction
than clumsy horses with sleepy dispo-
sitions. and these points should be con-
sidered when selecting for breeding
purposes. = Agricaltural Gazette

FIGHTING TARANTULAS.
The Remarkable Yarn Related by Truth
ful California Man.

The Remarkable Yarn Related by a Truth
ful California Man.
'Talking about centipedes, tarantulas,
and all the poisonous bugs and reptiles
that infest the southern Deserts" said
Henry Carmello of Pomon. to San Fran
cisco Examiner reporter, 81 never did see
so many things of this sort as did late
one evening just east of Pomona, in Los
Angeles County, last August. 1t beats
any thing 1 ever read about. Myself and
three or four others were coming from Sill
verton creek, where we had been fishing.
We were passing over the sandy plain,
where small vineyards here and there
dotted the surface. Suddenly, as we
drove along, one of the boys
uttered an exclamation of sur
prise and let his gun go at something.
Then he leaped out and crack went his
gun again, as though straight into the
ground. Again he shot, and to our exca.
nations of surprise-for we could not di-
vine what he was shooting at-sad:
"'Why, there! Don't you see? Taran-
tulas?'
land sure enough there they were,
thick and fast. upon the ground, crawl.
ing hither and thither, as though an army
of them were loose, and devastating the
country. Now, this sounds to you
like a fish story, but it is true.
That section was just swarming
with these poisonous reptiles. Every
one of us began firing. We shot and
shot and must have killed scores Of them.
Then, by deity using some sticks we
had, we got about sixty of them in q
bucket. Fight? You just ought to have
seen them. At first they wouldn't fight.
We put two or three together and tried to
egg them on. No go. They seemed slow
about beginning to use the poison on
each other. Then we put in some more
and began stirring them up with stick.
You ought to have seen them launch into
each other. The more we put in the
more they fought, until when we
had put in the three-score have told you
about, and had the bucket half full g
had just writhing mass of poison. Sting
and fight! My land. how they did do it,
though. They kept it up for quite long
time, until we got tired of watching
them! The little ones died the soonest
and sank to the bottom, amidst mass of
blood, while the old and big ones stayed
on top.
"At length two old bull tarantulas held
the field. All else had sunk down. These
were two veritable Napoleons. Fight?
You ought to have seen the blood fly,
now. Such awful and vindictive thrusts
and such merciless belligerants I shall
never see again if live thousand years.
The battle TASTED about five minutes more
and then they went down almost to.
gother. Which was the stronger, more
enduring, or gamier it would be hard to
say. When they got through we just had
hncketful of dead spiders. That was

SWALLOWED A SPIDER.
A Novel but q Marvellous Cure for Ms
Iaria.


Iaria.
s'Malaria!"
ssYes, malaria"
ssNo, sir. am no more afraid Of malaria
! than am of you," and as the speaker was
at least ten inches taller than the reporter
and proportionately broader, his fear Of that
dread malady was probably not excessive.
ave had malaria, and I've been cured
eyes. but a man can have malaria more
than once"
Not if he is cured the way I was. About
ten years ago was living in Indiana, in
Vigo county, near Terre Haute. In those
days a man was regarded as stranger
until he had drank abouta gallon Of whiskey
and ouinine, and shaken down his bedstead
three or four times with the ague. l had a
rather reticent nature, and l suppose it
took the climate longer to get acquainted
with me than it did the ordinary run of
men. For had to drink about barrel of
whiskey and take whole pounds of quinine
before I could get strong enough to even
shake myself, let alone bed.''
"How was I cured:''
s'Well, it was a novel cure. I boarded
with a Mrs. Dennis, who told me she could
cure me if I would take her medicine. FL
nally agreed She brought a towel and
bound it around my head so could not see !;
then she broughta glass of water, and told
me to take my dose, and Immediately swal-
low the water.
The dose tasted like a little ball of dust,
and as it was going down felt sharp pain
in nv throat, as if it had been scratched.
1.-THE next morning Mrs. Dennis brought
little box and showed me her medicine. 1t
was big, hairy, black spider, alive, and the
mate to the one had swallowed the day be-
fore''
The medicine this gentleman took for ma
laria, may have been effective, but few
would care to try the remedy Nor is there
any necessity for it.
Malaria is a,poisoned condition of the
blood produced by bad air and water, which
enter the blood-channels through the
stomach and lungs and other ways, and pro-
duce injurious effects on the liver and kid
neys. 1t is cured by putting the liver and
kidneys in perfect, healthy working order.
The drugs ordinarily used for such pur-
poses frequently do quite as much harm as
good, and leave the system in an enfeebled
condition.
The certain and harmless remedy for ma
laria is Warmers safe cure which puts the
liver and kidneys in healthy action, when
the poison is carried out Of the system, and
the serious effects it engenders, pass away.
J. NJ. Booth, Springfield, Mass, under date
of March 2Sth, 1887, writes: "One year ago
had the malaria-had had it more or less
for ten years. 1 stopped all other medi-
cines and took Warmers safe cure, and it
cured me. This country is famous for ma
laria, and l know Warmers safe cure will
cIre it,"
People who live in malarious localities
will find in Warmers safe cure specific
against CONTRACTING this disease. The NAL
arial poison can find no entrance to the sys-
TEN, if the liver and kidneys are kept in
healthy action
The gentleman who swallowed the spider,
concludes his narrative in the New York
Mail and Express by saying:
Il was effectuaRy cured, but wouldn't
take another dose Of that medicine to save
my life.''

Famous Women,

1t is significant fact that most of the
women who have achieved fame in art, lit
erature, or affairs have enjoyed vigorous
health. This shows that the mind is never
capable of the severe and continued applica-
ton necessary to creative work, unless the
body is at it's best. The woman who aspires
to fill an exalted place among her associ-
ates must be free from nervous debility and
female weaknesses. DR.. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription will Danish these, and it is
warranted to restore those functional har-
monies which are indispensable to health
As a specific for all those chronic weak
nesses and ailments peculiar to women, it is
unequaied.

Great Little Men.

Some of the greatest men that ever lived
were of small stature and of insignificant
appearance. The reader will readily recall
many instances. Very small are DR.. Pierce's
Pleasant Purgative Pellets, but they are
far more effective than the huge. old
fashioned pills which are so difficult to swal-
low and so harsh in their action. The ''Pel-
let's" are gentle and never cause constipa-
ton. For liver, stomach and bowel derange-
ments they have no equal.
