The Limit of Speed.

What is to be the extreme limit OF
speed to be reached by the trotter? asks
correspondent of a sporting paper.
Had the question been asked thirty
years ago the probability is that even the
most enthusiastic admirers of the light
harness horse would have hesitated at
setting the mark at 2:20, while now there
are many of them who do not hesitate to
say that the two-minute animal is a
possibility of the near future, but be-
yond that they hesitate to go.
Already mile at the trotting gait has
been reeled off in 2:084, while the little
black whirlwind Direct has paced a mile
in 2:06, to do which he was compelled to
cover Al 10 feet every second-a truly
wonderful performance. That the pacing
gait is the faster of the two has been
time and time again demonstrated, and
it is therefore safe to assume that the
sidewheeler, with his peculiar way of
going, will be the first to pass the mark
at which every breeder in the land is now
shooting.
1t is fact that the men who believe
that the extreme limit Of speed has not
yet been reached by the harness per-
formers are not, as might be supposed,
mere theorists in the art of breeding and
handling the trotter, but men Of prac-
teal experience, who are thoroughly
conversant with the different and most
approved blood lines and with the most
successful methods of training and pre-
pairing him for his battle against the

A Dogs Thanksgiving Guest.

A story comes from Milo which, al
though little late, is good enough
to tell. On Thanksgiving day, after
T. w. Perrigo's family had enjoyed
dinner, a platter was filled and placed
in the entryway for the family dog,
the outside door being left open.
After eating part of his dinner he
was seen to go to neighbours a short
distance away, hold a conversation
with that neighbours dog, and turn
and lead the way back, conducting
the dog into the entry to where the
platter of food was, and to which the
invited dog helped himself, while the
first dog went out and sat down upon
the doorstep and waited until his
guest had finished his dinner, after
which the two went and had good
play together. Bangor Commercial.

Caesars Stino.inesS.

A recently consecrated bishop of
the Episcopal church has a youthful
son who not long ago asked his Sun
day-school teacher who was the stin-
giest man mentioned in the Bible.
The teacher saw that the lad wanted
the opportunity to answer the question
himself, so he said: Il don't know,
do your" "Yes, Caesar" was the re-
ply. "Why Casar?" asked the puzzled
teacher. "Why, don't you see?" said
the boy, "the pharisees gave our Lord
a penny, and when he asked them
Whose subscription is this?' they
said. Caesars, and | think he must
have been a pretty mean man to give
so little.

was bound by severe and peculiar en-
actments of the Church of England
to properly observe the Lords day,

these laws was to the effect that
"every person of the age Of q years
and upward who should willfully be
absent from parish church for one
month, or, being there, should not

Juvenile Ideas.

A famous Brooklyn clergyman was
once addressing a Sunday-school on
the lesson of the day, which happened
to be Jacobs Ladder" He got along
swimmingly until a little urchin in
one of the back seats squeaked out:
why did the angels have to have
a ladder when they had wings?'
After the Inevitable laugh had sub
sided, the clergyman said: well,
that is a fair question, who can
answer it?" There was d pause, and
then up went pudgy fist. "Well,
my little man, }" asked the clergyman,
why was it?" Il guess, mebbe they
was moultin'," was the astonishing
reply, and the address was concluded
right there.

The Anatomy of High Checking.

Surprising we have the straight
backed roadster, with long, sloping quar-
ter and free stifle action. This horse
can go. Give him his head, and how he
reaches out, the spinal arch lifted to
allow the freer play of the legs. Secure
his head by the overdraw check, and as
the head rises the spine curves down.
ward, and the action cannot be as free
as before The drop of the spine is an
impeachment to the muscles of the leg.
If we continue to pull up the head and
consequently lower the back of the body,
additional tension is thrown upon the alb
dominal muscles, the stride is contract
ed, and finally its power reduced. The
check has without doubt shortened the
natural stride of many promising colt.
For the sake of greater road qualities
and greater comfort to the animal, re-
move the check or slacken it until the
horse can drop his head to level with
the body. Along the top of horses
neck runs a massive sinew strong
enough to support the head. 1t is at
tached to several vertibrR near the
shoulder, then it runs free over the
crest and becomes attached again to the
vertibre nearest the pole. When the
head is pulled up high, the crest presses
hard onto the sinew and causes intense
suffering, sometimes setting up the in

The Nature and Treatment of Stammer
ing.


Emil Behnke Jour. Laryngology
and Rhinology) has recently declared
that the term stammer and SHUTTER
should indicate the same condition,
rejecting former distinction that
stammer should refer to that form OF
obstruction in which there is inabili-
ty to pronounce yoWels, and stutter-
ing to that form of impeachment in
which the cOnsonants are at fault.
The causes of these disturbances are
attributable to the nervous centers
controlling the mechanism of respira-
ton, phonation and articulation.
Children afflicted with stammering do,
not, as a rule, outgrow the habit; rid
icule or severity will increase the diff
ficulty. Conditions needing surgical
or medical interference, such as spinal
curvature, post-natal adenoids, de-
cayed teeth, intestinal worms and
phimosis, may prevent cure Of STAN
mering until their removal. Cases of
stammerers are divided into two
classes-those in which fault lies in
management of respiratory apparatus,
and those in which it does not. In
the former the prognosis is more hope
full. To test patient, he is placed fiat
on his back upon a couch, and is
drilled in methodiZed and graduated
series of sounds and inspiration pro-
duced by diaphragm and muscles of
abdominal walls, the hand of the
trainer upon the epigastrium accentu-
ot;pr +hoco rocropapfc IF a ~ an
such practice, the patient shows i'm
provement, a favorable result may be
expected from treatment. In those
cases in which obstruction does not
depend upon imperfect respiration,
Behnke attributes much of the trou-
BILE to "an involuntary eXaggeration
of all the stops and checks taking
place in the vocal apparatus from
CLOTHS to lips, and he must there
fore be trained to make these closures
as shortly and lightly as possible. +"
Thus short aspirate may be inserted
after a consonant; as G-h-eorge, in
stead of George, or, as patient would
say, egg Gorge; and p-h-a, instead
of pa. Stammerers sing and whisper
without difficulty. because in singing
there is almost continued tone, and
in whispering there is absence of
tone. It is advisable to dwell on
vowels at expense of consonants-an
if vowel is difficult to sound, it should
be preceded by a short inspiration.
Another beneficial exercise is to
speak slowly, with teeth overlapping
and pressed tightly together. Re
suit of treatment Influenced by sever
ity Of case, intelligence of patient,
also existing morbid conditions, es-
pecially those due to chorea or other
nervous disturbances.

FIRST EPISCOPAL CHURCH

In America Was Built in Virginia in 1887.
Virginia, the home of the Presi-
dents, has yet other honors, and many
are the historical memories that cling
to the picturesque scenery of that
sleepy old State. Among the many
important events for which she is
famous is the founding of the first
temple of worship built in America
by the Church of England. This was
built in Norfolk in 1887. The first
minister in this parish, which was
called the elizabeth River Parish, -
was John Wilson. At that time to-
bacco being the chief currency, the
minister's salary was fixed BY law at
], 800 pounds of tobacco and Is bar
rels of corn. This was subsequently
increased, however, until in 1851 the
minister of this parish, which then
contained three chapels, received 20
900 pounds Of tobacco per year:

hope of the future is to make a mile in
