HORSES or THE WORLD.

y few years ago, a London journal says.
careful estimates were made from the
latest census returns, as to the number Of
horses in the world. 1t was learned that
there were over 6,0l0,00, divided as fol-
lows: In Europe, 37Cg0 000; Asia, ijOO,-
900; Africa, 1.0OO.00O; America, 90. 5000 0oD
Australasia, 100000 total, 6Io6O 900. Rus
sia among European states, has the
largest number of horses Q9,OoDOJW of
which about a million hides are tanned
yearly. North America, including the
United States and Dominion of Canada,
16 10000. with 2,2jO,GOO mules and asses
Argentina possesses some 5,0O0,0yO, prn-
cipallY wild horses. Paris owned 1lI5I7

THE MARKETS.
Wall street Review.

New York. Dcc. 1i--There was dispo-
Sition today on the part of holders OF
stock to realize profits on the recent rise,
and the bears helped along the reaction
by free short selling, There was one OF
two exceptional instance OF strength in
the market and some covering of sh orts
before the close by timid bears, so that
net declines do not indicate the extreme
fall in prices But the general tone OF
speculation as heavy ana no aggressive
disposition to buy was manifest The
iirmer tone of the call money market was
undoubtedly the cause of the malt in the
bull movement. The market was almost
wholly technical, the strength OF the
Coalers, with no news to account Tor it,
serving to sustain values somewhat. To-
tai sales were 100000 shares.

BAeVs SMOOTH, FAIR SKIN
A Grateful Mother Writes this Letter
Tells all about Her Troubles when

Tells all about Her Troubles when
Baby Broke out with Scrofula Sores.
"At the age of two months, my baby
began to have sores break out on his right
cheek. We used all the external APP
plications that we could think or hear of,
to no avail. The sores spread all over one
side of his face. We consulted physi-
clan and tried his medicine, and in week
the sore was gone. But to my surprise in
two weeks more another scrofulous look
ing sore appeared on baby's arm. 1t
grew worse and worse, and when he was
three months old, 1 began giving him
Hoods Sarsaparilla. l also took Hoods
Sarsaparilla, and before the first bottle
was finished, the sores were well and have
never returned. lie is now four years old,
but he has never had any sign of those
scrofulous sores since he was cured by
Hoods Sarsaparilla, for which feel very
grateful. My boy owes his good health
and smooth, fair skin to this great med
icine." MRS. S. S. WRoTEN, Farming

paralleled in the history Of parlia-
