No man in this city need drive q
poor horse, yet it is undeniable that
a good many do.
MIR. John Sweeny now has his
trotting nursery in such shape that
anyone DESTROYS of getting good
trctting blood can do go at conpar-
atiyely slight expense.
He now has on his stock ranch
ten of Gibraltar's colts, most OF
which are now ready to serve as
sires, and they are all animals with
ont flaw or blemish and stamped
with the splendid qualities OF one
OF the best sires of trotting stock in
the United States.
Gibraltar stands today with tho
best trotting record of all the great
stations that have shown their
speed IN public trials, and his get
are uniformly fine trotters, with the
graceful carriage and well knit build
of their famous progenator.
We have yet to see a man who
has not made money on the Gibral-
tar strain, ard who has not been
enthusiastic in praise of the build
and speed Of Gibraltar colts.
The get now on the ranch have
had excellent dams, and mostly
blooded stock, and the young stall
lions will be sold at low figures to
those wanting to secure fast trotting
stock with large frames and uniform
gait, combined with frst-class stay
ing qualities and acknowledged
gentleness Of disposition.
A matched team OF roadsters
sired by Gibraltar is worth $1,000
the moment they are taken to San
and from that up.
Mr.. Sweeny having SO good a
stallion as Gibraltar, his reasons for
reducing his stock are too obvious
to need any further mention.

REGIMES to Overcome WakefuIness.

Among the many recipes that havl
been given for overcoming wakefulnesi
is one devised by a Mr.. Gardner, and
formerly celebrated in England, but BOW
almost forgotten. It is to lie o'P the
right side, with the head SO placed on
the pillow that the neck shall be
straight; keeping the lips closed tightly,
a rather full inspiration is to be taken
through the nostrils, and the lungs then
left to their W action. The person
now imagines that he sees the breath
streaming in and out of his nostrils, and
confines his attention to this idea. II
properly carried out, this method is said
to be infallible. Counting and repeat
ing poetry are other means that have been
recommended. Combing the hair,
brushing the forehead with a soft shaw
ing-brush, or tanning, are all good sleep
inducers, and might well be tried on
sleepless children.
To these may be added the Spanish
practice of getting a baby off to sleep by
rubbing ITS back with the hand. A sen,
sation of dry, burning heat in the soles
and palms, which accompanies certain
diseases in some people, is a cause Of
sleeplessness that will give way to spong.
ing the parts with vinegar and water.
Wakefulness is sometimes the result Of
lack of food, and a glass of cold water Oh
pale ale, OF the eating of a sandwich,
will, by setting up~activity in the abdom'
inal organs, divert the superabundant
blood finn the head, thus removing tha
cause of the unnatural activity of sthe
brain. One reason why the most gifted
of minds have frequently been afflicted
by sleeplessness is because bodily exercise
is too often neglected by people devoted
to intellectual pursuits. For such per
Sons there isno better soporifc than mus
cular exertion, carried even, in extreme
cases, to a sense of fatigue.--Onee a
WeeE.

a Duck. Farm.

Not far from Boston, in the town OF
Easton, Mass, is situated the largest
duck farm in the world. For years past
the business of raising ducks for market
has been carried on upon an enormous
scale in this neighborhood. The biggest
establishment devoted to the industry
used to be found along the shore, it be-
ing supposed formerly that the web
footed birds could not possibly thrive
without plenty Of water to swim In. be
sides, the ocean was q most CONVENIENT
source of food-supply in the shape OF fish,
which were caught in huge quantities
with seine and net for ~quacking stock.
The trouble with this method of feeding,
however, was that the flesh acquired an
undesirable fshy flavor, calculated to oil
minish its selling value. Then, too, it
was discovered at length that ducklings
could be raised and make to thrive with
out anv water facilities at all-in short,
that natatory exercise was merely a lux
ury for them and not a necessity by any
means. And it is on this theory that the
oipnantic duck-farm at Easton is con-
Quoted.
Everything appertainingt to the rearing
of the ducklings is performed artifcially,
for this business is one in which art out
does nature altogether. Even IN Old
| old times the device was resorted to OF
employing the maternal offices of the hen
| for Matching out the duck eggs and bring
inc up the broods. But now the moth
erly b~arn-yard fowl has been superseded
bv the incubator, which turns out the
fuzzy little yellow creatures by thou
sands, ready to nestle under an imitation
mamma with steam-pipe vitals and gorge
themselves to adult fairness on especially
prepared soft food. The duck thus
brought by patent methods to marketable
size is sure to be tender, juicy and most
! delicate of flavor. At forty to fifty cents
6 pound it pays the producer admirably
Most breeders says that the "Pekin'
duck, a bird Of Chinese origin, is the
most desirable for all purposes. It il
hardy, natures early, and weighs from
fourteen to twenty pounds to the pair

The New York Journal Of Commerce,
which favors industrial schools, says OF
those institutions: "They might well be
founded and conducted at the expense
lof the several trades. It would pay enor-
mously to the trades if they had schools
i'm which girls and boys were educated for
Hhe labor in those trades. The regular
course to the door of any industry, any
workshop, would be through a school.
The result of such a system would be a
constant supply of skilled workmen, any
one of whom at the age Of eighteen would
earn higher wages for himself and more
profit for his employer than is now earned
Eby the average workman of forty. In
tdustrial education instead of the present
Ediffuse, inapplicable and useless sort OF
education would thus be a blessing to the
!laborers and the laboring classes first, to
the capitalists and employers next, and so
ito the whole community. And the Ia
Fborer who had been educated to his trade
and had pursued it c~onscientiously would
be infinitely better fitted to represent his
fellow-citizens at the Capitol than are
nine-tenths of the men now sent to Legis-
latures and Congress. One educated,
skilled, and able mechanic is worth more
to his country than a hundred half-edu-
Gated lawyers, physicians or other pro-

Gamers of Cannon Balls.

CAPTAIN Meredith, John Richie and
George Shields, known as cold HOSES"
and uold-timers," sat around in the Press
club one afternoon recently and talked
about the times of the war and told OF the
funny capers that cannon balls ana
musket balls cut. Captain Meredith
,aid he once found a dead Confederate
behind a big tree. The dead man was
resting on n knee, in a position to
shoot. His musket was in his hands, the
butt of the gun was against his shoulder,
and one eye was open, squirting along
the gun-barrel. There wasn't a mark on
the body, but the man was stone dead.
There was o ten-pound cannon ball burleo
in the tree, The man had been killed
bv the conclusion. Mr.. Shields said that
be saw a cannon ball 60 into the ground
about 200 yards in front of where ne was
standing. He thought that was the end
! of the matter, but in about three seconds
The ball came out Of the ground fifty
yards beyond the place it struck 1t
then in its fight struck a stump, car
romed off, broke a soldiers leg, and,
rolling on a few yards further, upset a
camp kettle and scalded a mans hands.
John Richie said he saw a man hit
with a "spent" cannon ball. He walked
over to where the man lay to see what he
could do for him-give him a drink out
of his canteen, or a chew of tobacco, or
something-but all that was visible was
b mass of about 100 pounds of flesh and
blue cloth, mixed up like sausage, with
an eye and two teeth sticking out ON
top.
Captain Meredith said that, speaking
of cannon balls, one of the most novel
sights he witnessed during the war was a
cannon ball about as big as a -four barrel
going through a horse lengthwise-that
Is, l~engthWise of the horse. There was
left of the horse its head, its four feet
and the lower six inches of its tail. The
Captain said he could always tell the
body of a Confederate soldier from q
Northern man on a battle field, because

WHISTLE THEM AWAY.

Have you any petty cares, boysS
Whistle them away,
There's nothing cheers the Spirits
Like a merry roundelay.
No matter for the headaches,
Meath silk or hodden-gray,
For the sake of those who love you,
Just whistle them away.
IT'S strange how soon friends gather
About a cheerful face;
That smiling eyes and lips count moro
Than beauty, wealth, or grace:
But I have seen it tried, boys,
When trouble comes to stay,
The brave heart leaps to work, and strives
To whistle it away.
Then as you climb life's hill, boys
Put music in your toll,
Turn to your traitor trials,
A whistle for a foil;
90 steadfast in the right, boys,
Whate'er the world may say,
Temptations never conquer those
Who whistle them away!
