IN POSITION FOR TAKING OFF THE HIDE.

IN POSITION FOR TAKING OFF THE HIDE.
If hide is taken off and properly
cared for it will often bring q fifth or
fourth as much as the dressed carcass.
If taken off improperly and neglected it
will bring very little. A hide ought to
more than pay for taking it off. After
the animal is dead turn it up on its back
and run a sharp knife along the carcass
as indicated by the dotted line in Fig. 1.
To do this, thrust in the knife, point
foremost and edge up, and run the slit
the entire length of the carcass, from
the chin over the breast in the line of
the navel to the tail. Then slit the skin
of each leg from the cleft of the foot to
the central slit. If these lines are fol-
lowed the hide will be the right shape to
care for when removed. The horns do
not go with the hide, nor does the tail
bone; the tail and ears do,
After the hide is removed spread it
out as in Fig. g Cut off all pieces of fat
and flesh for if you are not an adept you
will probably either have some such
pieces on the hide or some holes in it,
and it is better to have meat than holes,
as very slight cuts, especially at or near
the center, makes badly damaged

Tn. Use of Glasses.

Those persons who find it necessary to
hold any object nearer than fourteen inches
from their eyes, who find that their eyes
become dry and itching on reading need
glasses.
Persons under forty years of age should
not wear glasses until the accommodating
power of the eye has been suspended and
the exact state of refraction determined by
competent ophthalmic surgeon. The
spectacle glasses sold by peddlers generally
are hurtful to the eyes of those who read
much, as the lenses are made Of inferior
sheet glass, and not Systematically ground.
No matter how perfectly the lenses may be
made, unless they are mounted in a suitable
frame and properly placed before the eye,
discomforts will arise from their prolonged
use.
Persons holding objects too near the face
endanger the safety Of their eyes and incur
the risk of becoming nearsighted.
The nearsighted eye is an unsound eye,
and should be fully corrected with glass,
Notwithstanding the fact that it may need
no aid for reading. The proper time to be-
gin wearing glasses is just as soon as the
eyes tire on being subjected to prolonged
use.-Detroit Free Press.

shall find two sets Of eyes, the simple and

of which is in reality cornea; and the

Such powders not only undermine the
