The latest novel charity in London,
that town which beats all the rest of the
world in the multiplicity and magnitude
Of both its charities and its poverties, is
the Home of Rest for Horses, which has
been recently established in the Victoria
buildings. The scheme is to take the
horses of the poor when they are well
nigh broken down from too much work
and too little food, and give them plenty
Of food and nothing to do till they are
ready to start out on their labors once
more.
That is very well for the people, but it
is piteously hard on the horses. About
the most painful object in the world is
the underfed, overworked city horse, and
the most cheering thought connected
with him is of his death. To systemat-
ically prolong his misery is cruel, and If
it must be done the "Home of Rest"
people ought to make arrangements to
themselves kill off in some merciful way
the hopeless horses. They owe them
some atonement for having helped them
to live.-New York Graphic.

Not every lover Of the oyster knows
that the size and plumpness which are so
highly priced in the American bivalve,
and which are so attractive in specimens
on the half shell or in the stew as to lead
the average man to pay considerable
extra price for extra size, are not entirely
natural, and even those who do know
that the majority of the oysters in the
market are artificinlly swollen by intro
ducing water into the tissues are not all
aware that the process by which this is
done is closely analogous to that by
which the food in our own bodies is con-
veyed through the walls of the stomach
and other parts of the digestive apparatus
and poured into the blood and lymph to
do its work of nourishment.
Psychologists are, believe, agreed that
the passage of the digested food through
the walls of the alimentary canal in man
and other animals is in large part due to
osmose or dialysis, and that the operation
of this physical law is very common
one in the animal body. But the quanti-
tative study of the chemical changes in
volved is generally rendered difficult or
impossible by the very fact of their TAX
ing place in living animals where the ap-
plication of chemical analysis is impossi-
BILE. An opportunity is, however, offered
by the oyster, which, since it lives in
water and has body so constituted as to
readily permit the inflow and outflow Of
water and solutions of salt, may be easily
used for experiments. The results Of the
experiments have practical as well as
scientific interest, since they confirm the
common explanation of the increase in
bulk of oysters by 'foating," and show
that it is essentially a process Of watering
in (which the bulk is increased without
any corresponding increase, but rather,
if anything, loss of nutritive material.

E 1t is announced that tho eminent
scientist, Professor Huxley, of England,
is making inquiries into the phenomena
of spiritualism, with view to elucidate
all there is in it, if anything can be
found. 1t is well that philosophers and
experimenters in the material turn aside
occasionally to investigate and test what
purports to be immaterial, or SO obscurely
connected with the material that thus far
no point of connection has been discov-
cred. Is the human nervous organism,
like an electrical apparatus, q machine
for the play of natural forces, or is there
something outside and beyond that vi
brates the sharp of thousand stringsp''
Professor Huxley, from long study, habit
and thought, is well adapted to settle this
question by all methods heretofore en-
ployed, Or any other that may be sug-
gested, or that he may himself conceive.

HOW BEN BUTLER GOT RICH.
Young Men of To-day May do Likewise
IL Ehey Follow Advice Given.

General B. f. Butler being asked fol
some suggestions on gaining success,
stated that when he was a young lawyer,
practicing in Lowell, Mass, bank rres.
idcnt advised him to take his little de.
post and buy real estate, from which he
could be deriving some revenue. The
general said that he had but little money
and was uncertain as 10 his future.
&c Never mind," said the bank presi-
don't, ego to the next public auction Of
real estate, bid Off lot with building
OF some kind OIL it, pay down what
money you have and give your promis-
sorry notes for the balance. You will
come out all right"
General Butler says this advice was
good. When man has obligated him
self, by his notes, to pay money ut GER
tain time, it inclinas him to economy.
He followed the advice, and in time be.
came the owner of several parcels Of val.
liable real estate in Lowell.
Two classes will not be likely to heed
such advice-the imrrovident and the
over-cautious. The latter will be apt to
say" 1t would he all right but for those
dreadful promissory notes. They are
always running OH and il man falls
sick they do not wait for him to get
we'll"
There ia this danger, Of course, but one
can make no business venture without
some risk, and wit. The knowledge &C.
quired by recent Investigations Of the
cause of most ordinary ailments, and the
means OF cure, one runs little risk from
that source. 1t is nov known that most
OF the common ailments have their orr
gin in deranged kidneys. They are the

where is soon inevitable, because the
poison, which in their healthy condition
is eliminated, is carried through the en-
tire system.

G. D. Dewey, n successful man, presi-
dent OF The Jolipston Harvester Com
pany, Batavia, N. Y, gives his expert
ence as follows:

Some weeks ago there appeared in your
valuable paper an article wherein Mr..
Len Lewis, of year county, cured several
horses of the fatal disease by applying
hot applications over the spine and near
the region of the kidneys. wish to
state that several of our animals in the
stable became afflicted with the dread
disease about this time, notably, one of
our Golddust stations, Kohinoor. He
had nearly run the course of the disease
and was unable to get up without help,
when happily the article above men.
toned was seen and, remembering that
"where thore is life there is hope" we
lost no time in trying the proposed rem
edy by boiling potatoes, which were put
could hear, placed over the kidneys and
covered with several blankets. These
sacks were changed from time to time to
keep.as hot as possible all the time. This
was kept up regularly for two days, and
the result was noticeable the first day,
and the third day the animal had nearly
regained his usual health and is now as
well as ever. The experiment shows
conclusivcly that but for this treatment
the horse would have died as he had the
sickness in the worst type. 1t may not
be cure in every case, but there is no
doubt il is good thing to try on any
horse with the sickness.
Horsemen should make known any
beneficial results obtained from treat
ment IN this new disease through jour-
nails like the Husbandman, for the bene-
fit OF this great industry which is just in
its beginning. In this way we may find
an effective remedy that will cure most
cases, if not all, for it may be some time
before the veterinary surgeons will have
told us the name of this disease, Its cause
and cure.
The horse disease has left this section
of the valley (Which is north of the Big
Black foot river) and has crossed over to
the south sida, where some four or Eve
work horses have died within the last
two weeks.-Correspondent of Husband
