y skinny, i'll fed, disconnected and an
archistic horse had come to the conclu-
sion that it had hauled it's load far enough
and that it would defy the overhearing
master and go no further. The result was
blockade of the street. caused by Il balky
horse. AS is usual in such cases Il crowd
gathered to discuss the situation. Every
one took hand in trying to lead the
horse, but it planted it's forefect firmly
and refused to he budged Various sug-
gestons were offered to assist its lucomo-
ton, but few of them were tried The
comedian of the crowd offered the time.
worn SUGGESTION that Il fire be built under
1t, but it fell flat and no one smiled.
In the crowd was IL well dressed man
in II silk hat and natty overcoat He had
observed in silence all the ways and means
for moving the obstinate horse. At length
he stepped forward and said:
Let me try. Who's got IL piece of
string y small boy went into his peck
cts and produced the desired article. Il

Nov get me II short stick and we'll soon
get this horse out OF the way said the
man. The small boy also produced IL stick
The crowd gazed stupidity and wonder

whose suggestions had been rejected
smiled sarcasticallv.
The man in the silk hat had tied one
end of the string to the stick and the
other end around the horscs ear. The
horse hung his head and looked obstinate.
AS the string began to tighten the horse
woke up and tried to jerk his head away.
The further the string was wound the
uneaSier the horse grew. i fter the last
wind had been taken the stick was thrust
through the brow band of the bride.
The horse wriggled his ear vigorously,
shook his head impatiently, then his eyes
grew wild and he began to move. His
VIII was beginning to weaken. Suddenly
he started off wagging his ear briskly
and the crowd cheered.
That's the way we used to start balky
horses and mules when was frcghtng
down In Mexico good many years ago.
a horse can only think of one thing Mt a
time and the string on his ear takes his
attention away from his balk. It's very
simple. kansas City Star.

ICE CREAM IN JAPAN.

Made and Served on Street Corners Whife
You Wait.
The little brown men of the mikado
have just as sweet II tooth us their white
cousins across the sea, says the phlndel-
phia Inquirer. They are very fond of
American candy, when they can get it,
but our cheapest candy is so dear to
them that they cannot afford to buy more
than half II cents worth Mt IL time Never
thelcss they make their own candies and
sweeties and some of them are very nice.
They have an ice cream which is cooler
and perhaps more healthful than that
which we make ourselves. 1t requires
no machinery and no cooking. 1t is made
for you on the streets corners of japan
while you are looking. The dealer has
in box any number of chunks of ica
You give him an order and he takes out
II clear, clean piece, half as large rs the
fist, and with II coarse iron CRATER rubs
the ice into IL thick snow which fall into
I cup or goblet. He rubs up enough ice
To about half fill the vessel, throws over
the top of it II spoonful of powdered sugar
and sqeezes into it the juice of half II
lemon
He hands the vessel to you, with IL
spoon, and you can eat it in whatever
style you like. You can mix it up and
it becomes like water ice or you can pick
out the ice and sugar together and con
sumo Tint separately. In the place of
lemon you can have, according to the sct
son. lime, orange, pineapple, mulberry,
cherry, tea and coffee. For Il small cup
of this simple but pleasant delicacy the
chnrgc is two cents, and for an egg cup
full one cent.

ELECTRO LIGHTS AND EYEs1GHT.
Unprotected Lamps Found to be Injuri-
Gus to Those Using Them.


The question OF injury to the eyes from
electric lights is being prominently dis
cussed by scientists, oculists and laymen
throughout the country. While the
opinions widely differ as to the ultimate
injury likely to result from the rapidly
increasing use of electric lights, the con-
sensus of opinion is that light from I'M
colored or uncovered globes is working
damage to the eyesight of humanity. In
the discussion of 1.-The subject n London
electric light journal, in defending its
trade, feels called upon to make some inn
portant admissions.
1t says at is not customary to look
upon the sun, ami not even the most en-
thusiastic electrician would suggest that
naked arcs and incandescent Gaments
were objects to be gazed ut without limit.
But naked arc lights are not usually
placed so us to come within the line of
sight, and when they do accidentally,
whatever may result, the injury to the
eye is quite perceptible.
1.-The filament. of IL glow lamp, on the
other hand, is most likely to meet the
eye, but II frosted bulb is an extremely
simple and common way of entirely get.
ting over the difficulty. The whole trouble
can be easily remedied by the use Of prop
crly frosted or colored glass globes. In
any case, however, the actual permanent
injury to the eye by the glowing filamcnt
is no greater than that due to IN ordinary
gas ilume.N

HOW TO PREVENT GROUP.

Against the Disease
Group is Il terror to ungmothers and
to post them concerning the cause, first
symptoms and treatment is the object of
this Item The origin of Group is Il com
mon cold Children who are subject to
it take cold very easily and Group is al
most sure to follow. The first symptom
is hoarscness; this is soon followed by Il
peculiar rough cough, which is easily re-
cogniZed and will never be forgotten by
one who has heard it. The time to act is
when the child first becomes hoarsc. If
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is freely
given all tendency to Group will soon dis
appear. Even after the croupy cough
has developed it will prevent the attack.
There is no danger in giving this remedy.
for it contains nothing injurious For
