$35 a month. When you come to
think OF it this iscertainly a most
reasonable figure, especially as the
horse is developed and turned out
as good as he possibly can be.
Now $35 a month for eight months
is $3.50 and the other four months,
when the horse is turned out, he
will cost $40 month. That's $50
more. Add it to the $3.50 and it
gives you exactly 1850. That is

KILLED BY HER GLOVES.

Rarely, it may be thought; has a
more singular case of accidental
death been recorded than that
which recently threw much es-
teemed family residing in the envi
rons of st. Petersburg into mourn
ing. A young lady in perfect
health, and with the brightest fu-
ture before her, was among the
guests invited to a ball, and, her
toilet completed, she drew on a
pair of long gloves, reaching above
the elbows. Scarcely halt an hour
afterwards she felt considerable ir-
ritation and pain in her arms and
hands, to which, however, for the
moment-taken up with the
pleasures of the evening-she paid
but little attention.
On returning home her suffering
increased, and the following day
her hands and arms became cover
ed with sores, which were attribut-
ed by the doctors called in to blood
poisoning. A week later the poor
girl died, after severe suffering and
despite the efforts made te save
her. The fatal gloves had been
handed over for analysis, the con-
lecture being that the animal with
the skin of which the were made
was In some.way or other diseased,
and that the skin used had been
imperfctly cleansed. In any case,
if this conjecture prove correct,
measures will doubtless be taken
to ascertain, if possible, whether
other gloves similarly contaminat-
ed are on sale.-London Standard.

Professor John Henry Comstock,

of six articles on the study of insects,
in which he describes, not only those
insects which are useful to the farmer,
but also, those which destroy entire
fields OF grain, cotton and rice,
and r.yage orchards, gardens
and vineyards. He demon
stratcs how it was scientifically deter
mined that an average annual loss of
$50, ,OOO,0 900 has been occasloned in
the south by the cotton-worm alone;
and that an average loss per year, of
nearly $4,000, 900, has been brought
about in the apple crop of Illinois by
the ravages Of the Goblin moth. The
series is profusely illustrated.

The Musical Poodle.

A gentleman, who had retired from
business, devoted himself, heart and soul,
to the enjoyment of music. Every mem
Der of the household was by degrees in
volved more or less in the same occupa-
ton, and even the housemaid could in
time bear part in chorus. One in
dividual alone in the family seemed to
have no taste for sweet sounds-this was
a small poodle; but the gentleman firmly
resolved to make this animal bear some
part or other in the concert, and by per-
severance he attained his object. Every
time that false note escaped either from
instrument or voice-as often as any
blunder, of whatever kind, was COM
mitted by the members of this musical
family, down came its masters cane on
the back of the unfortunate poodle, till
she howled and growled again.
The poodle perceived the meaning of
these unkind chastisements, and instead
of becoming sulky showed every dispo-
sition to howl on the instant false note
was uttered without waiting for the
blow. By and by mere glance of her
masters eye was sufficient to make the
animal howl to admiration. In the end
the poodle became SO thoroughly ac-
quainted with false notes that the slight
est mistake of the kind was always sig
nalized by yell from her. Sometimes
her master and his friends took pleasure
in annoying the dog by emittingall sorts
of harsh sounds from instrument and
voice. On such occasions the creature
lostall self command, her eyes shot forth
fiery flashes and she sent forth long and
frightful bowls. But persons were
obliged to be careful not to go too far,
for when the dogs patience was very
much tired she became altogether wild
and would fly fiercely at the to~naentors
and their instruments
