unable to endure the eXertion of active
movements, and they are designed also
for those others who are SO lazy that
they will not endure the work of or
binary physical gymnastics. One of
these machines is the saddle horse. 1t
is a luxurious bit from merry go
round in form, and is made for either
nan or woman. The patient mounts
it, lever is moved and the patient is on
his travels. He does not travel forward,
but up, then down, and that is all. The
exact movement of trotting gait is
reproduced, and it may be regulated to
the slightest staccato movement or the
wild rise and fall of bucking bronco.
Another instrument is for trunk rota-
ton. The patient sits on comfort
able and innocent seeming chair. the
lever is moved and the decorous patient
becomes in the twinkling of an eye the
rival of any oriental Nautch girl. The
seats wabbles and sways, undulating,l
gyrating until any desired amount of
external and internal agitation is pro-
duced.
BY other contrivances one can have,
rubbings of the feet, the hands or, in
deed, any part of the body, and that
with a gentleness and regularity that
are most gratifying. OF all this sort
the most popular is one in the form of
huge cushioned chair, which has a.
long opening in the back. The sybarite
lies in this, and of a sudden the chair
begins a slow and languorous move:
ment back and forth, while at the same,
time two covered wheels rise through
the open back and stroke his back soft
ly, yet firmly, with delightful assiduity
that soon induces sleep.
Another instrument has loOped rub

on any part of the body, that stimulates
the sluggish blood. Another allows
you to place your feet on box and
forthwith your toes are genuinely
twinkling in the quick vibrations. Or
you may lean against stolid seeming
pad, which forthwith imparts thrill
ing tremolo to your astonished flesh.
An interesting machine is one which
seizes your foot and lifts it high in air
without aught of effort on your part.
1t will, perhaps, fill long felt want
among those sprightly maids whose
admiration of Cissie LOTUS is greater
than the elasticity of their muscles.
1t should be added that every instru
ment is capable of the incest adjust
ment, SO that the most delicate need
not be injured by the motion, and all
are provided with minute glass, by
which the subject may time his exer-
else.

This is the age of machinery, and the
genius, OF mechanism pervades all de-
J,artments of Life. 1t is, however, none
the less startling to be confronted with
apparatus which lays hold on YOU in

min = in plain English, lice. They
might be fed twice as much as ordinary
horses, and yet they remained poor and
wretched looking. Mr.. D. w. Hayes.
. well-known trainer of western New
York, gives the following recipe for
getting rid of the pests: Half q pint
of kerosene to two gallons of water.
Wash the horses with this twice, with

tween the rows leaves deep depressions
and high ridges, thus exposing double
surface to the action of the sun and
air. The plank drag smooths down
these ridges, while leaving the land
light and porous. An Ohio farmer adj
vises rounding the edges of the plank
slightly, from end to end, SO as not to
disturb the earth deeply near the plant
rows. Our illustration shows an easy
way of attaching the plank. The plank
should be of medium weight wood, as
chestnut, as very light wood has not
sufficient weight to do the work well,
while heavy wood may by its pressure
pack the soil too tight.-Farm and

not all Peters are just like this one.
There are many grades of them.
Cows pass half the year in the stable,

observing farmer would indorse me i'm
saying that; on the average where man

loss of fertility by teaching as much in

SALT BOX For COWS.

How to Get Up q Convenient Arrangement
at Small Expense.
Live stock should have a quantity of
salt fed to them regularly. The better
way is to place a quantity of salt where
it will be accessible to them at all

SO much money in the fire. Attention
is called to this matter now because
it is the most suitable time to get a. few
logs out of the woods and have them
manufactured into suitable lumber for
a she'd. In such case all the cash shed
would cost would be the price of few
nails and the saving bill. Ordinary
dairymen have dread of contracting
any unnecessary expense. Al shed is
looked upon as involving more expendi
ture to construct than Unnecessary. A
man having "a COWS and no. shed re-
fused to subscribe for a farm paper be-
cause he 'could not afford it," 1t is
MASTERS to thinking.
Persons who have not been ON tours
of observation through dairy sections
can have but a faint idea of how ex
tensive the waste is; in this respect.
1T amounts to many millions of dol
lars annually in the state of New York
alone. Probably one-half of the dairy
men would plead guilty to this indict-
ment. But there are many honorable
exceptions. Some keep their manure
under shed cover, and the more able
have their cow barns so constructed
that they can drive team through
behind two rows of COWS. A vehicle
is kept standing in the stable, and
