The HandsOmest Horse in the World.

At the horse annex Of the Buffalo (N.
" fair, every variety of the equine race
was represented from the huge Clydes-
dales weighing over 1000 pounds, with
hams like an elephants and white fet-
locks that sweep the ground, down to
the daintiest darling OF Shetland pony,
mouse color and white. hardly larger
than Newfoundland dog, and limbed
like deer. Very funny was group of
extra diminutive ponies with their de.
mure little mule colts beside them.
There were many Percheron and French
coach horses, splendid creatures, most
of them imported, but perhaps the two
most notable animals were Mambrino
King and Al.Nlonarch. Al-Monarch, the
bold originality of whose Arabo-Greek
title cannot be too much admired, is not
so celebrated for his speed, as for the
fact that he is the father of FL. Monarch,
horse of 3;l1t record, the last quarter
being at n pace which would reduce it
to ;0S il the whole mile had been at
the same speed. tl.Monarch did not
himself appear in the flesh, but the pub.
lie were consoled by photograph, pre-
sumably instantaneous, which represents
him as dying through the air apparently,
all four feet being ali the ground. l be.
lieve the instantaneous process has es-
tablished the fact that q swift trotting
horse is frequently detached in that
fashion.
AS for Mambrino King, he travels on
his beauty, having the reputation of be.
ing the handsomest horse in the world.
This at least was the claim boldly made
for him by the placard in front of his
box. He certainly has beautiful head
and eyes of indescribable magniicence.
As it was impossible to exhibit him in
motion, the instantaneous photograph
was again brought INTO requisition, q

Washing Away a Continent,

The average discharge from the Mis-
souri, into the Mississippi is estimated at
40 cubic feet per second. This would
be 500, 600 cubic yards per day, aud
$50, 900, 900 cubic yards per year. At
flood stage the sediment has reached
the enormous amount of 4, 0U0, 900 cubic
yards in one day. This would make a
bank twenty.three miles long and 100
yards across, and 1000 miles of such
levee in year. When the united rivers
pour into the gulf, the output of soil
annually IL twice the above amount.
The meaning of such figures it is i'm.
possible to measure. One hundred and
fifty cubic miles of the continent
tumbled annually into the sea by one
watershed The wear and waste of
cultivable soil is enormous. But the
great problem for man is how to control
the mud laden waters so that they shall
not destroy ruthlessly on the way to
their discharge. - Globe Democrat.

A UNIQUE French Advertisement mt.

The latest device for attracting the at
tention of possible purchasers which has
been adopted by several Paris shopkecp-
ers is an ''immovable boy" Outside u
clothier's. for instance, the "boy" stands
without moving muscle, and bears on
his carcase the newest fashion in blouses
or coiduroys. Passers-by are easily at
tracted by the remarkable figure, which
they take to be an etfigy in waxwork
or u fableau pieant. The boy has been
well drilled AMI lives up TO his work.
He smiles not, neither does he wink, nor
does he betray the slightest sign, token
or movement that he has anything in
common with the ordinary palpitating
aud effervescing specimen of humanity,
the boulevard boy" The device
draws, for spectators are usually lost in
amazement at the impassive features of
the breathing impersonation of dummy
figure.

A MOman's Peculiar MnlndY.

There is living in Cleveland, Ohio. q
lady llictcd with a peculiar malady
which has puzzled and batlled the entire
medical fraternity of this section of the
country. Herself the sister of well.
known physician, she has been unable
to obtain any relief, and has turned in
despair from one fern of treatment to
another without avail. Some years ago,
when n young girl, the house in which
sGc was stopping at the time was struck
by Lightning. All of the inmates were
stunned, and more or less seriously in.
jured. This young lady suffered more
severely than the other victims. The
shock completely paralyzed both her or.
gans of speech and motion, and she lay
for days in most precarious condition.
hecovery, although slow, was appar
emily complete. however, and in n few
weeks the effect OF the stroke had en-.
tirely passed away, says tie Pittsburg
Dispdtch.
One day she felt the dread symptoms
OF paralysis stealing over her, and before
assistance could be summoned the un-
fortunate woman was again Frustrated,
speechless, and unable to move q muscle
of her body. 1t was noticed at the time
that heavy thunder storm was brewing,
and that the air was overcharged with
electricity. When the storm was over
the patient rapidly recovered, and the
next day was as we'll as ever, save the
nervous shock attending the relapse.
The next III Inder storm brought with
it the same alarming state of affairs, and
again was the young woman paralyzed,
recovering only when the atmosphere
was cleared of its overcharge OF elec-
tricty. The fact that the victims sys.
TEN, rendered sensitive to electrical
changes by the frightful shock it had re-
ceived when he was struck by light.
ming, was now susceptible to the slightest
presence of the subtle fluid, was row APP
parent, and medical science was called
into requisition to effect a cure. All
remedies proved ineffective, and with
every recurring thunder storm the un-
fortunate woman relapses into state of
partial or complete paralysis, according
to the severity of the storm. Her health
has, of course, suffered from the con-
slant strain put upon her both physically
and mentally. but there appears to be
no relief from the malady, If it can be
termed such.

HOuseh0ll Hints.

Use warm knife in cutting warm
bread and the like.
A paste of whiting and benzine will
remove spots from marble.
A salt ham should be soaked over night
in plenty of soft water previous to boil
ing.
After washing a wooden bowl place it
where it will dry equally on sll sides,
away from the stove.
Fruit stains on white goods can be re-
moved by pouring boiling water directly
from the kettle over the spots.
Hive sirup is good for Group or inflam.
nation of the lungs. 1t must be kept in
a cool place, for If it sours it is very
poisonous.
If you want poached eggs to look par
ticularly nice cook each egg in u mu lin
ring placed in the bottom Of saucepan
of boiling water.
A creaking hinge can he cured by the
use of black lead pencil of the softest
number, the point rubbed into all the
crevices of the hinge.
Corks may be made air and water tight
by keeping them for five minutes under
melted parafiine. They must be kept
down with wire screen.
For cleaning brass use a thin paste OF
plate powder, two tablespoonfuls of vine.
gar, four tablespoonfuls of alcohol. Rub
with piece of flannel; polish with
chamois.
Suet should be cooked before it is
stale. Boil for two or three hours. then
strain through linen cloth. One-fourth
of this fat and three-fourths lard is a
good mixture for frying doughnuts.
BE very particular about disinfecting
the kitchen sink. Washing soda, two
tablespoonfuls to gallon of boiling
water, makes an excellent wash to pour
hot into the sink at after you have fin
ished using it.

FOREST FIRE.

Summer heard a hidden locust whirring;
STOPPED she TO the flowers with Sigh.
"Darlings, come" she said; I'VE must be
stirring.
Hear the herald Autumn draweth nighr
So, her lifted skirt with flowers heaping,
Passed she through the fields and wood
land ways.
Tiny creatures, tween the bushes peeping,
Saw her go, with sorrow in their gaze
Laughing, turned she, ere she went, uphold
ing
Der the land her sun. glass high in air;
Soon was seen thin smoke veil enfolding
Distant hills and valleys everywhere.
Then she slipped away with silent laughter.
Ere the spark had quickened into flame.
"Ruddy Autumn swiftly follows after"
Whispered she, and he shall bear the
blame"
Soon stealthy yellow flame was creeping
Here and there along maple bough.
Swift from tree to tree ths fire went leaping
Lo how all the woods are blazing nowr'
