1t is not work that kills, but
worry. It is not the revolution
that destroys the machinery, bat
friction. Work is good for the
soul, good for the body and good
for the mind. If you want a good
appetite don't worry. If you want
to stand well with yourself and the
world, and want things to go right
in your home and your business,
do not worry. If YOU want to size
up 100 cents on the dollar, do not
worry.-Albany Journal.
A rather unusual case of a po-
liceman's sagaoity is told by
gentleman of Central Missouri.
Some years ago Col. William E.
Switzler of Columbia, in company
with an old gentleman of Howard
county and a St Louis physician,
were in this city together witness
ing some exhibition. During the
performance a lady spectator ex-
claimed: I'm robbedr To pre-
vent the theft from dropping the
purse into another's pocket, Col.
Switzler exclaimed: Hold your
pocketsr' A policeman standing
near by Immediately and energet-
ically ordered the men to stand in
a line. Walking around the line
twice he began at the gentleman
from Howard and said: "You are
a carpenter" to the next: you are
a literary man." coming to the
next he said: "You are the thief"
and searching him found the peck
et-book. Asked by one of the
gentlemen how he could designate
a mans calling the officer said:
The doctor there has caustic on
MS hands; the literary man has
ink on his fingers; the thief has
hands which show no evidence of |
good work Of any kind"

Proper Food for Cows.

Food has two offices TO perform in
animal economy, TO keep the animal
warm and to give il force. and foods
are classed as heat producers or force
producers. Heat is supplied by car
bonaoeous food while force Is derived
from heterogeneous material. and that
food is best for the animal in which
these elements are in such proportion
to each other as the condition Of the
animal calls for. Foods are classeds
as rich when they contain
large proportion OF heterogeneous
or producing elements, and
poor when they arc the reverse.
Cotton-seed meal, wheat bran, gluten
meal and well-made clover hay are all
comparatively rich foods; while bog
hay, grain-straw or over-ripe or.
weather-beaten timothy hay are all
inferior because they lack due pro-
portion of force-producing material.
The Same kind OF food is required to-
produce milk that Is required to pro-
duee force, so the working OK, or,
horse like the COW in milk, requires
rich food or food containing high
proportion OF heterogeneous material.
The statement has been often made
that COW will require daily given
per cent. OF food to her live weight,
usually two to two and half per
cent, or twenty to twenty-five pounds
for an animal weighing 1000 pounds.
While this may be approximately cor
rect we should remember that the
richer and more concentrated the
food the fewer pounds may be re-
quired. A pound OF wheat bran may
be equal TO two pounds Of timothy hay
or three or four pounds Of meadow
hay. II should be remembered too
that while ten pounds Of good timothy
hay may be a perfect ration for a
small heiier. il does not follow that
twenty pounds Of meadow hay that
would show by analysis 90 be half as
rich would in practice be OF equal feed
ing value 10 that heller. There is
limit TO the ability OF the animal 10
chew and digest bulky food. II too
much bulk be crowded into the ma
chine. the machine may get clogged or

brooms that the region afforded Barns
would be literally stripped Of every
thing OF value.
After the prohibitory law went into
effect in Kansas, the country being more
thickly settled, Waterman found il adj
visable 10 change his plan OF opera
tions. He would visit towns in Mis-
souri, and lay in a large supply Of
whisky in quart bottles, and then, as
secret dispenser OF this beverage, he
would attack the Kansas farmer on his
weak side. When he found one who
properly appreciated the luxury OF
having liquor broushtto his very door,
he would tarry with him and open
bottle or two on his own account.
After the farmer had yielded TO the ef-
fects Of the potations and had fallen
under the table, Waterman would help
himself at the barn and disappear
The old min also enjoys the rare dis
tinction Of being the only man in the
world who ever stole horse while he
was an inmate OF a State prison. When
he was serving the last Of his three
terms in the Missouri penitentisry, his
conduct was 50 good that he was set
down as "trusty," and rs such was
on many occasions permitted 20 go out-
side the walls. On one Of these excur-
sions he was seized with an irresistible
impulse to make Of with horse, and
Ave minutes later he was astride a fine
animal which he had lifted from a con-
venient barn. With this exploit he
seems to have been content, for he
presently dismounted. left the horse 10
browse at will by the roadside and
hurried back to the prison. Having
had taste OF liberty Waterman longed
for more. and two weeks later he stole
q team belonging to one Of the keepers
and made for the country at a break
neck pace. He found no difficulty in
disposing OF the horses, and with the
money obtained he fed 10 Canada,
whore he passed several years without
attracting much attention.
Waterman. who does not appear 10
be as old as he is, talks freely of his
exploits. and seems 10 have no concep-
tion Of the fact that horse stealing is
not 8 perfectly Legitimate pursuit. He
told one Of his visitors the other day
that he was getting on in years, and
that Il any Of the boys wanted points
in the business he would give up at the
rate Of Ave dollars a point. Cor, Chi
