The Experience of a Veterinarian Summed
Up liz short Paragraphs.
Once during lifetime is all any man
need expect 10 be suited in a family
horse. Be kind but firm with the horse;
abuse. Feed the horse out of a trough
placed on the ground; this is not only
the most natural position, but it pre-
vents the proper elevator muscles of
the shoulder becoming rigid and fixed,
which by constant use of high managers
and tight refining is frequently the case.
How often do we see horses worked in
towns to heavy carts or light carriages
unable when turned out to grass TO get
their heads to the ground without set
ting the fore feet out wide, sometimes
going down on one or both knees. or
setting one leg forward with the other
as far back as possible. Twelve quarts
of good, clean old oats with twenty
one pounds of good, clean old hay,
with sprinkling Of salt is sufficient
ration for an ordinary-sized horse for
one day. Beans are the most MUSCLE
producing food given to horses. Horses
in the habit of swallowing food without
thoroughly masticating can be cured
by covering the bottom of the feed
trough with loose stones about the
size of an egg.
Never offer unsolicited advice for
the medication of a neighbours sick
animal; if it RECEIVERS you have moth
ing to gain, and a good deal to lose if
it dies. Before venturing to use or
prescribe a medicine, become thor
oughly acquainted with its nature and
action; better leave sick animal
alone to nature than impose blind as
sistance. Never buy a horse afflicted
with mucus discharge from one or
both nostrils; by general observance
of this much could be done to prevent
spread of CHAMBERS, equivalent to thou
sands of dollars in some districts.
Never trot or run horse suffering
with tympanitic collie, which presents
a swollen appearance. Walk the ami
NAL slowly, or allow to roll ut pleas
ure, taking care to provide suitable
place. Carrots-about one pound each

Valuable horses have been sacrificed
by the ignorant practice of admins
tering medicine through the nostriIs.

What a Porterhouse Steak Is.

Very few people who sit down to a
good breakfast of 'porterhouse" steak
could tell. were they asked, what part
of a bullock this choice tidbit is cut
from. The .'porterhouse" is that por-
tion of the beef either side Of the spine
beginning where the ribs end and ex-
tending along to where the hip bone
begins. The tenderloin should form a
part of the porterhouse. This is mar
row strip of succulent and tender flesh
extending along and protecting the in
ner sides of the spinal column. Its
high price is due to it's choice quality.
and the fact that even in the largest
bullocks there are not above ten TO
twelve pounds of tenderloins. The
term ''porterhouse" is Of English
derivation, and it has no equivalent in
either the German or French language,
while tenderloin, on the other hand,
is known among the Germans as ''lum-
mel" and "fillet, by which latter name
it is also known among the French.
The term 'porterhouse" probably
originated from the eating-houses and
inns of England, also known as porter
and ale houses. A customary order
was: Give me porter and steak"
and in time the name 'porterhouse"
probably was applied to the choice
pieces Of steak as distinguished from
the more ordinary kinds.-Nctes and
Queries.

HOW TO COOK MEATS.
Roasts Cooked in ovens a De1uslon aud
"a Snare.

Roasts Cooked in Ovens a DelusiOn aud
Snare.
Baked meat is an abomination. So
called 'roast" meat cooked in ovens is
a delusion and a snare.
Roast meat is roast meat, and in or
der to roast you must have an open
fire. before which your joint is placed
in such a manner that the air circulates
freely around it.
The reason why it is Objectionable
to cook meat by baking it in an oven
unless it be a big bakers oven-is that
ii is difficult, if not impossible to keep
an ordinary oven in a cooking-stOve
clean and well ventilated. The sides,
roof and floor of the oven get bespat-
tered with PARTICLES OF fat and spots OF
gravy during the baking prOce and
these particles become charred. and
thus fill the oven with ammonia and
with a foul atmosphere of empyreu-
matte oils, by which terrible word the
chemists indicate the unwholesome
vapors generated through the action
OF fire.
In the p recess of roasting before an
open fire. these empyreumatic odors
are indeed generated, whereas they are
imprisoned in the oven. and there
penetrate the meat. destroy its flavor.
and render it more or less insipid.
Meat, however. may be baked in
pies, because in this case its surface,
being protected by the crust. can not
be charred and impregnated with the
foul empyreumatic oils. Meat baked
in a pie-crust amounts in reality to
stewing operation. the paste forming,
as it were. a stewpan with its lid.
Frequent basting is essential to sue
cessful roasting. Otherwise, the CO.
agulated surface of the meat would
crovass during the operation and al
low an escape Of the juice. The melt
ed fat poured over the meat penetrates
into every crack, and by means Of the
higher temperature of the fat. the sur
face of the meat is maintained in an
impervious state. Louisville Courier
Journal.

COLOR AND COMPLEXION.
What Blondes Should Avoid and What
Brunettes should Wear.

what Blondes Should Avoid and What
Brunettes should Wear.
The influence of color upon the com
plexiOn and general tone of the toilet
is very striking. Fair blondes should
avoid the lighter shades of blue. which
are apt to give an ashy hue to the COM
plexion. The darker shades of blue
may be worn more recklesslY by the
blonde than the brighter shades, be-
cause throwing out the complexion in
high relief upon an accommodating
background, and the darker and more
velvety the shade the finer is the effect
Brunettes can not wear blue becom-
ingly, since that shade, when shad-
owed by yellow skin, enters into the
composition of green, and the tawni-
ness Of the complexion is increased. The
lorid brunette can not risk the wearing
of blue. Green is a dangerous color for
brunettes, but well adapted to the fair.
A pale brunette can effectively wear
red-it heightens the effect of the
bruno beauty. 1t is stated by reliable
authority: Crimson should be charity
INDUCED in by the brunette, but Grim
son may be worn with safety by the
blonde"
Yellow is highly becoming to the
pale brunette, ana especially by gas
light Yellow grows paler aud softer
in artificial than in natural light It
enters into the olive shade in the bruno
skin with softening effect, giving it
a rich, creamy tint, that becomes beau
tiful in contrast with brilliant black
eyes and rich dark hair. The artists
long ago discovered what the milliners
are slow to perceive, and that is that
yellow clears every thing. Dress.

Time to Reform the Calendar.

An ingenious Yankee, with an eye to
adjusting himself 10 his environment.
has moved a reorganization of the cal
endar. Winter. he contends. should
begin on January l and include March;
spring should commence with April
and include June; July, August and
September should constitute summer,
and the fall. beginning with October,
should not end till after Christmas.
His new calendar would play the mis-
chief with traditions, but it would
come nearer to actual experience than
does the present antiquated European
article. The procession OF the equi-
noxes is too slow altogether for the
American climate. Facts are on the
side of reform. and If the weather does
not speedily repent and bring forth
frui more meet for repentance than
rank grass and dropsical potatoes. the
newly-established Department of Ag-
ricuiture viii re called on to revise the
calendar. Brooklyn Citizen.
