The TronicaI Nose.

DR.. William C. Braislin shows that in
negroes the nasal canals are wider, short
err and less deep than in other races, and
thereby less protection is afforded the
lungs. The author believes that the Afri-
can nose, being adapted to tropical eli
mate, is not suited for the colder climates,
and that in this lies the greater suscepti-
bility OF the negro to consumption and
other diseases depending upon irritating
qualities In the NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..

HORSE HINTS.

Do not keep the hay over the stable, as
the gases from the manure and the breath
of the animal will make it unwholcsomc.
Keep your harness soft and clean, par
ticularly the inside of the collar and sad
die, as the perspiration, if allowed to dry
in, will cause irritation and produce gals.
Kindness will do more than brutality.
Therefore do not use harsh language to
your horse or lash, beat or kick him. Bear
in mind that he is very intelligent and
sensitive, a willing servant and deserving
Of your kindest treatment and thought.
Never allow your horse to stand on hot,
fermenting manure, as this will soften the
hoofs and bring on diseases Of the feet, nor
permit tho old litter to lie under tho
manger, as the gases will faint his food
and irritate his lungs as we'll as his eyes.
The collar should fit closely, with suffi
cient space at the bottom to admit your
hand. A collar too small obstructs the
breathing, while one too large will cramp
and draw the shoulders into an unnatural
position, thus obstructing the circulation.
Remember that horses are made vicious
by cruel treatment; that a careless appli
cation of the whip has blinded many
horses; that more fall from weariness than
from any other cause, and that no animal
should ever be struck upon the head
