HORSE SENSE.
How Old Roam Escaped From His
Stable Prison.


1t seems to me that there is no need any
longer to doubt the rational quality of many
of the actions of our four-footed friends
Old Roam was cavalry horse marked l. c..
inspected and condemned, says Forest and
Stream. My father Ia preacher, by the way,
and as keen a hunter ever trailed a deer
or fooled turkey bought him at govern
ment auction for s12. When plenty Of corn
and oats and good treatment had counter
acted the effects of hard cavalry service. ten
times that price would not have bought
him. He was capital traveller and good
farm horse. But his intelligence in open
ing gates was extraordinary. He learned the
trick of lifting latch as soon as the new
barn was built. Then we put a ring over
the top of the post. He soon got on to this,
and Tipped 1t off with mis- upper lip A chain
with the links keyed together. he could man
age very we'll, also a rope, If he could get
at the knot with his teeth
His stall was closed by sliding bars. These
he learned to slip back with his teeth al
most Immediately. We then bored holes in
them and put in pins to keep them from
slipping but he studied this out, and drew
the pins with his teeth. A hole was then
made in the same bar, but at the inner end,
behind the planking of the side of the STALL.
This stumped him for good while, but he
finally worked it out. found the pin, drew it,
slipped back the bar and walked forth in
triumph.

PLENTY OF CHALK.

Great Block That Was Once Large ss
 the Continent of Europe.
 The small piece of chalk which is in constant use in the schoolroom, the 1ee- ture room, the billiard room and the workshop has strange history, the un- raveling of which through all it's com plexities is one of the most difficult problems with which the science of the present day is called upon to deal. This piece is in reality chip of an inn ense block of chalk that once filled an area the size of the continent of Europe, and of which even yet several gigantic frag- ments remain, each hundreds of square miles in extent. These patches are scat tered over the region lying between Ire land on the west and China on the east and extend in the other direction from Sweden ill the north to Portugal i'll the south. .,.#s
 In the British Isles the chalk is found in greatest perfection and continuity in the east and southeast of England. A sheet of chalk more than 1000 feet iM thickness underlies all that portion of England which is situated to the south east of line crossing the island diag onally from the North sea at Flambor- ough Head to the coast on the English channel i'll Dorset This enormous sheet west, and its depressed eastern portions that dip toward the waters of the North sea are usually buried from sight by means of overlying sands and clays. Where the edges of the chalk floor come upon the sea the cliff scenery is strik ingly grand and beautiful. Any one who has once seen the magnificent rocks of Flamborough and Beeehy Head, the jagged stacks of the Needles or the dig zy mass of Shakespeare cliff, near Do yer, can understand why "the white cliffs of Albion" has grown into stock phrase.
 This massive sheet of chalk appears again ill France, in many other parts of Europe as far east as the Crimea, and even in central Asia beyond the sea of Aral How far it stretched westward into what is now the Atlantic may nev- CT be known, but chalk cliffs of at least 200 feet in thickness are seen at An trim, in Ireland, and less conspicuous formations are found in Scotland, in Argyll and Aberdeen. There can be lit tie question that all these now isolated patches were once connected in con tinuous sheet, which must, therefore, have occupied superficial area about 5000 miles long by nearly 1000 broad, an extent larger than that of the pres ent continent of Europe. - Pittsburg Dispatch.

FOR THE BABY.

Mother.
 There are two kinds of babies inl the world; the kind who have too little nour7 ishmsnt and the kind who have too much.

Stuart's Tablets con ain no so called drugs. but are composed of peps4n, pure aseptic, fruit aol1s, starch digestives aLii ars put up in lozenge form, with sugar of milk, very pleasant to the taste and have been used for years as the safest, best remedy for any form of indigestion and stomach troubles ia ad- ults, but recently many remarkable cures have been made in the cases of weakly babies who failed to grow and thrive as they should. .le''+'' "
 A Buffalo mother a short time ago who despaired of the life of hsr babe was SD delighted with the results from giving the child these tablets that she went be- fore ths notary public of Erie Co. N. Y, and made this following affidavit:
 Gentlemen:-Stuart's Dyspepsia Tabl- cts were recommended to me fo. my two months old baby, which was sick and puny and the doctors said was suffering from indigestion. ! took the child to the hospital, but therel found no relief. A friend mentioned the Stuart Tablets and I procured box from my druggist and used only the large sweet lozenges in the box and was delighted to find they Ware just the .thing for my baby.
