ELECTRICITY for Baby Horses.

Pittsburg Dispatch: Electricity has
been put to a new and SO far success
full USE, that of conquering a balky and
lazy horse. In one ease n very high
spirited and valuable animal, but ex-
tremely vicious and balky, was cured
in one hour with the aid of a three
volt dry battery.
( The officials of the Western Penn
syivania Humane Society were noti-
fed some time ago that Thomas Rog-
ers of Avalon was using the dry bat
terry on his horse, which was as bad as
a valuable high-hred horse could be.
Superintendent Thomas NJ. Porter in
~vestigated the case, and Friday he
gave Rodgers Il hearing before Justice
William Griscom of that place. Rog-
ers said his horse was worth $1,000 to
him if he could be cured of baking
and one or two other vicious habits.
He had offered $500 to any one who
could manage the animal, and at last
consulted DIR. Y. C.. Mcneil, the city
veterinary The doctor advised Rodg-
ers to try electricity, and he bought
u three-volt storage battery, and by
means of three wires connected each
side of the bit and the with
the battery. The horse was hitched
to a road cart, and at first refused to
move, standing with all four feet in a
braced position.
Mr.. Rodgers then had the wires con-
nected to the battery, which was
placed in the cart, and at the first push
OF the button the horse jumped, snort
ed and then moved off. Each day for
n week he went through the same les
son, and is now the pride road horse
of Avalon and never balks, bites or
kicks.
That was the testimony brought
out at the hearing, and as the veteri-
nary and squire thought three volts
was not a sufficient shock to hurt the
animal, Rodgers was discharged.
Superintendent Porter had a similar
case some months ago. He found that
one of the rich suburban r%esidenters
was using the fluid battery on a lazy
horse in cultivating his summer gar
den. After several unsuccessful at
tempts to catch the gardener using
the horse he wa at last rewarded one
bright sunny morning by catching the
gardener wedding the potato patch
with the horse hitched to a harrow.
The superintendent went to the driver
and after introducing himself aud In
forming the man why he visited him,
he was shown the contrivancc.
Strapped to the backband was a
small fluid battery with wires running
from it to the martingale and the
crupper. a sponge was fastened to
the wire at each place and kept moist
by the heat of the horses body. When
the animal got tired it would stop, and
pressing W. buttons together the cir
cult was formed and the horse would
move on for several hours. Porter
tested the full strength of the battery
on himself and found that the sensa-
ton did mt go above his elbows and
that the voltage was only a fraction
over two. He said he thought it was
letter and more humane to use a small
mount of electricity on n horse than
to whip it, and was satisfied it was
not a case of cruelty. He has written
to several of the best known horse
doctors in the United States, asking
their opinions on the subject, and is
waiting for their replies with a good
deal of interest.

A German Specialists Advice to n Pam,
pcred Beauty.

Some dainty-minded poets and novel.
lists of peculiar taste have shown marked
preference for the li%ly-skinned maiden
n openly deplored the vulgarity OF
hearty red cheeks as becoming only to
milkmaids and the gardener daughter,
says Demorest's Magasine. That may
be all very well in poems and novels,
but among the stern realities of life the
smart young woman prefers a high,
clear color that owes nothing to art but
everything to nature. Now. unhappily,
1t has been found that the more fashion,
able the life young women live the more
quickly they lose their schoolgirl rosi-
ness, a phenomenon that has caused
serious consideration among the atflict.
ed. Electricity, massage, etc, have all
been tried in vain. In no instance has
the cure for pallor proved permanent
and it was in something of despair the
more energetic and hopeful resorted to
a famous specialist just come to town.
He is q tiny, mild-mannered but IRON
willed little German doctor, to whom
the secrets of nature seem wholly re-
vealed. He contemplated his wan.
checked patients and remarked, calmly,
that sweets and ice-water were at the
root of the trouble, augmented by too
much driving in victorias, broughams.
coaches, etc.
Not enough honest leg exercise" he
said, firmly, and proceeded TO draw out
Il daily hrs of exercise that made the
poor patients shudder.
Walk" he CALCULATED. "Neyer put
your feet in the horse cars, cabs or
carriages If you can help yourself. Walk
five or six miles a day. and.let me see
your shoes"
A dainty foot, incased in a pointed.
patent-leather tie, was put u for in
spection.
"Bosh!" was his unkind comment,
Get these feet into high buttoned.
round-toed, heavy-soled calfskin shoes.
and not only don't be afraid of rain and
snow but go out in the storms. Wear
goloshes, a macintosh, a glazed hat, but
do not carry an umbrella. Take the
snow and rain into your face; that's
good for the skin. Don't let a grain of
sugar pass your lips. Drink -FOUR ten
unsweetened aud favored only with a
slice of lemon. Bonbons, desserts, auy
sweetened dishes whatsoever. must be
refused utterly; also never, never drink
a drop of any fluid with your meals.
Avoid ice water as if it were poison, but
take whatever amount of water YOU
need an hsur after eating. Toast every
crumb OF bread, sleep eight hours and
don't touch a drop of any medicine, or
I'll not treat you"
1t is a stern regimen, but the little
physician is right, and the color is come
ing back into faces hitherto too pale
even for the poets taste.

Lesson Of History.

New York World. AS to whether
the woman or the Il is more eNtrav-
agant, read history.
Nearly all the worlds great money
spenders have been men. Very few
women figure OH the list.
1t was SO in ancient times-in Rome
in Greece, in Nineveh and in Babylon.
1t is SO in all countries today. The
speudthrift bankrupts, the scatterers
of great fortunes, are always the
heirs-never the heiresses.
Go over the record of the past thirty
years in New York. That tells the
story. 1t is the same in London or in
Paris or in any other large city.

SUFFERING ARMENIANS.
Subscription List Being Formed in
Their Aid.

The nations of the world are inter
esting themselves in the condition of
the helpless Armenians, sufferers be-
cause of Turkish atrocities. 1t is es-
timated that in the field which can be
reached from Harpoot there are no
less than 10 1000 widows and orphans.
Many of the children are helpless and
without homes, and it is proposed
turning what houses that are left
standing and untenated in the district
into houses of refuge for them.
Many widows and houSeless women
have been found who are willing TO
take charge of children for the sake
of the home which will be provided for
them. Some expense will be incurred
in collecting. distributing and support
ing the children, and call has been
made upon the Christian nations for
aid. During this week there will be a
subscription list at w. w. Halls, who
is TO send money under the auspices
of the Mission Board.
