The Ciydesdales, perhaps the horses
most highly esteemed by farmers, espe-
cially in the hilly countries, are bred in
districts bordering ON the Clyde and
owe their origin to one of the Dukes Of
Hamilton, who crossed some of his best
Lanark mares with stations he import
ed from Flanders This breed is con-
spicuous for its high courage, activity
and endurance. Several years ago the
late General Peel told me how success
full he had been in mating his thorough
bred Toxophylite with Clydesdale
mares.
"When you use, - said he, "a thor
oughbred for draft Mares always use
the biggest and best you have, and you
will be sure to produce draft horses sec
ond to none. Horses good as Stockwell
are not too good for my Clydesdales.
What / have bred will go on their
knees to move the heaviest loads. They
won't be beaten"
This fact proves how benefcially q
good cross Of fresh blood operates, and
particularly so when the new blood is
obtained from the ACKNOWLEDGEMENT
from inferior specimens of this breed,
but from the very best-from 'horses
as good as Stockwell +" The Clydesdale
differs from the Shire horse in that it
has long, low back; short, fat ribs;
good, hard legs and long pasterns, which
would seem to have been derived from
a cross with a half bred or thoroughbred
horse. This certainly is not desirable
conformation, and our Scottish brothers
have for several years past inoculated
this breed by the introduction of the
best Shire blood, both male and female,
which has resulted in the production of
animals with shorter and stronger pas
terms. This breed is much in request In
this country, and the best specimens are
readily sold to Americans at high fig
ures. -Nineteenth Century.

The Fad HEROINE.

There is still another type of heroine
which has not as yet to any great extent
invaded English literature-the vicious,
the reprehensible heroine. She abounds
in the French novels, both old and new.
Balzao had studied her profoundly

Flaubert dissected her with medical
skill and severity in mime. Bovary. "
Daudet demonstrated her destructive
ness in 'Forrnont Jeune ct Risler Aine, "

British novelists Malock has expert
mented with her considerably, but she

is in British fiction, it would be mat

WHAT is A MUMMY
A Chapter of Interesting Information About
Some Egyptian Customs.

sumo GBgPtAtah OuStOAiSs
When member of an Egyptian fam
lily died, all the relatives put on mourn
ing and abstained from baths, wine and
delicacies of all kinds from 40 to so
days, according to the rank of the per-
son deceased. Death in one respect put
AN end to all distinctions that had pre-
vailed in life, and king and slave were
subject to the same law.
The record of the life of the deceased
had to be examined by a tribunal of AZ
Judges before he could be given burial
with his ancestors. If the deeds of his
life proved that he was worthy Of
burial, his body was carried across the
sacred lake, of which each province had
one, and was there permitted to rest. If
the Judges found him unworthy, even
though he belonged to the highest rank,
he could not be buried with his ances-
tors. The body was returned to his rela-
tives and was buried on the side of the
lake opposite to the burial place of the
Just.
The belief of the Egyptians in fu-
ture state of existence gave rise to the
practice of embalming the dead. They
wished to carefully preserve the body,
so that the soul upon its return to its
former abode at the end of all things
might find it ready for its reception.
Bodies were embalmed in three differ
emit ways. The most expensive and mag
nificent method was used upon the bod
les of kings and other persons of dis
tinguished rank. the cost amounting to
a talent of silver, or 500.
A number of persons were employed
in the process of embalming, and they
were treated with great respect. They
filled the cavities of the body with
myrrh, cinnamon, spices and many
kinds of sweet smelling drugs
After certain time had elapsed the
body was swathed in lawn fillets, which
were glued together with kind of thin
gum, and then crusted over with costly
perfumes. By this mode of embalming
the shape of the body, the lineaments
of the face, the eyebrows and eyelashes
were preserved i'll their natural perfec-
ton. Bodies thus embalmed are what
we now call Egyptian mummies- Phil

NEW CURE FoR DlPHTHERlA.
European Hospitals Practicing Method of
Blood incubation.

European Hospitals Practicing Method of
Blood InoculatiOn.
So many thousands of children are
annually carried off by diphtheria, the
sufferiugs caused by the disease are so
agonizing and the remedies hitherto at
the disposal of the medical profession so
inadequate that the news of the intro
duction into the Berlin and London hos
pitfalls of new and eficacious cure for
this fell malady cannot be regarded
otherwise than as a matter of public in
terest.
Very little has been heard about this
remedy, owing to the fact that the dis
tinguished psychologists engaged in
its discovery have been unwilling to
subject themselves to the same disad-
vantage as DR.. Koch, whose cure for
consumption has been unjustly pro-
claimed a failure merely because 1t
was published to the world prematurely
and before 1t was ready for medical ap-
plication The new cure, briefly speak
ing, is one of incubation, with this
difference instead of injecting
the poison into the system of the pa
tient, one injeots the blood of an ami
NAL which has been inoculated with a
weak culture of the diphtheria bacte-
ria, the virus of the latter being, how
ever, of so weak character that it does
not affect the animal with the malady.
but merely renders it immune thereto.
Repeated experiments made Of late
have shown that few drops of blood
from horse or any other animal thus
rendered immune injected into hu-
man being suffering from diphtheria
are sufficient to arrest and cure the dis
ease. OF course it is too soon as yet to
quote the statistics of the few hundreds
of cures which have been effected in
Berlin and London by this treatment,
which is to be fully discussed in all its
complicated scientific aspects at the
forthcoming international congress of
hygiene in September at Budapest. But,
whatever the ultimate result of its ap-
plication, it has at least one advantage
over all other forms of incubation hith-
erto discovered-namely, that the matter
injected into the system of the patient
is free from poison and consequently
