Americans in Paris with the Johnstown
sufferers. The rooms of the legation were

Minister Reid presided. Among the
resolutions adopted expressing sympathy
was the following:
That az American citizens we congrat-
ulate them upon and thank them for the
numerous acts OF noble heroism displayed
under circumstances calculated to unnerye
the bravest.
Especially do We admire them for the
capacity shown for local self government
upon which the stability of Republican
Institutions depends, the military organi.
cation sent from distant points to preserve
order during the chaos that supervened
having been returned to their homes as no
longer required within forty-eight hours
of the calamity. In these few hours the
civil power was recalled and asserted itself
and resumed sway without the aid or
counsel from distant authorities but
solely by and from the inherent
power which remains in the people of
Johnstown themselves" Brief and
touching speeches were made b. Gen.
Layton, late United States minister to
Austria, Abram S. Hewitt and others.
A committee was appointed to receive
subscriptions, and about 81 900 was sub.
scribed on the spot. American bankers

Dealing with a Kicking Cow.

Speaking OF blows makes me think
of those milk-stool blows which fall on
the ribs OF COWS if they yield to their
impulse to kick a careless mixer.
have seen gentle cows spoiled by
pounding, but / never saw kicker
cured by it. If any horned animal
kicks you, try to make it think you like
to be kicked Kind treatment and the
entire ignoring Of a kick from COW
will generally cure. Animals kick be-
cause they are afraid of you, and can't
get out Of your way. Convince them
that you won't hurt them under any
circumstances and the cause Of the
kicking is removed. For an unsafe or
nervous COW, however, use rope;
about three-eighths rope is best. Tie
a good snap to one end and string to
the other, and have it about two and
one-half feet long over all. Pass the
rope around the left hind leg just
above the gambrel joint, give it one
twist between the legs and then snap
the ends together outside of the right
leg. aid your COW is harmless. The
more she is inclined to kick the tighter
the rope may be twisted. Now keep
this rope hanging Just behind the
kicker and you never need whip her.
! use the same rope to break heifers.
and after putting 1t on q few times
there's no trouble in milking without
it. Farm, Stock and Home.
