ELECTRICITY for Rnlky Hnrsna

Plttsburg Dispatch: Electricity has
oeeh put TO "a new and so far success.
,ul use, that of conquering "a balky and
lazy morse. In N case n very high
spirited and valuable animal, but ex-
.remely vicious and balky, was cured
IN one hour with the aid of a three
volt dry battery.
Inc officials of the Western Penn
sylvania Humane Society were mott
hed some time ago that Thomas Roy
ers ol Avalon was using the dry bat
terry on his horse, which was as bad as
q valuable high-bred horse could be.
superintendent Thomas NJ. Porter in
Ncstlgated h case, and Friday he
gave Rodgers II hearing before Justice
William Griscom of hat 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 DR.. II. c. Mcneil, the city
veterinary The doctor advised Rodg-
ers to try electricity, and he bought
a three-volt storage battery, and by
means of three wires connected each
side of the bit and the y 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
q week he went through the same les
son, and is nov 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 was at last rewarded one
bright sunny morning by catching the
gardener wedding the potato patch
with the horse hitched To n harrow.
it iillNibClll went W tlt uIlNtI
and after introducing himself and 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 two buttons together the cir
cult was formed and the horse would
o on for several hours. Porter
tested the full strength of the battery
on himself and found that the sensa-
ton did not go above his elbows and
that the voltage was only II fraction
over two. lie said he thought il was
better and more humane to use a small
amount of electricity on a horse than
to whip it, and was satisfied il was
not a case of cruelty. He has written
10 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.

Some dainty-lninded poets and novel.

preference for the lily-skinned maiden
md openly deplored the vulgarity OF
hearty red cheeks as becoming only to
milkmaids and the gardeners daughter,
says DemoreSt'S MdgaziRe. That may
be all very well in poems and novels,
but among the stern realities of life the
smart young woman prefers q high,
clear color that owes nothing to art but
everything to nature. Now, unhappily,
II 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 afiiict.
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
q 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, I" he
said, firmly, and proceeded TO draw out
a daily course of exercise that made the
poor patients shudder.
Walk" he calculated. Never put
your feet in the horse cars, cabs or
carriages if you can help yourself. Walk
live or six miles a day, and-let me see
your shoes"
A dainty foot, incased in a pointed,
patent-leather tie, was put out for in
spection.
"Bosh!" was his unlSind comment,
Get these feet into high buttoned.

and not only don't be afraid of rain and
snow but go out In the storms. Wear
goloshos, a macintosh, Il 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 your tea
unsweetened aud favored only with a
slice of lemon. Bonbons, desserts, any
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 hour 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 q stern regimen, but the little
physician is right, and the color is come
ing back into faces hitherto too pale
ever for the poets taste.
