Two Pointer. a. to the Cont

"You may go into the goat business
and educate the people of the middle
west to eat goat meat" said Wiley O.
Cox yesterday "but you will not learn
from books what my father learned
from experience" and then Mr.. Cox
gave away trick of the trade.
1.-THE man who goes in for Angoras
will find that it is true they will jump
anything under 100 feet high and climb
a sapling. They will get at the neigh,
bor's wash as sure as it goes on the
line, and there will be lingerie to pay
for. But if you would be on the safe
side and keep the billy there turn him
up and cut away the little crccper that
you will find at the bottom of the hoof
1t will not hurt him to lose it, but it
ruins his ambition as a mountebank.
1t will save lots of trouble to have a
chropodist get at the Angora with Il
nail trimmer"
Goat meat cannot lie distinguished
from mutton ordinarily. In every car
of sheep that comes from New Mexico
there are sure TO be from two to a dOZ-
Ell goats in the lot. They all go to the
same block at the packers and the

and six consonants. Combine these
two figures. and we have the number

In a certain North Dakota town there
are two physicians. one with a long
record Of cures and the other popularity
rated as mo good"
The favored doctor found his services
In great request but as payment was
not always forthcoming he made n rule
that certain class of his patients
should pay in advance.
one winters night he was reused by
two farmers from a hamlet ten miles
away. the wife of one of whom was Sc
riously i'll. He told them to 20 to the
other doctor, but they refused saving
they would prefer his services. VERY
WELL" replied the medico, ''ln that
case my fee is Sl0 the money to be
paid now"
The men demonstrated. but the doc
tor was ohduratc and shut down his
window. He waited, however to hear
what they would say. "Well, what will
we do now" asked the farmer whose
wife was i'll. And the reply that was
given must have been as gratifying as
it was amusing to the listening doctor.

A Jockeys s. nxation when Riding.

IF you ride with your head down.
that'is to say, bent slightly so that the
wind does not beat right on to YOUR
face--you can breathe easily, but if you
hold your mouth wide open and let the
air beat right in your face then you
will have great difficulty in breathing,
and If the race is long one you will
become exhausted by the end of the
ride" SO said well known Jockey
when questioned on the subject of
what his sensations were when riding
In race.
"A mile race on a good horse is run
In about minute and 40 seconds. A
mile In ! minute and 40 seconds is at
the rate of Sc miles an hour so, you
see. race horse travels at train speed.
"lf you want to know how it feels to
60 through the air at race horse speed,
just hang your head out of a railway
carriage window, turning your face to-
ward the way the train is travelling.
At the same time imagine that you are
sitting In a saddle and have to hold on
to your horse and guide him on to vic.
tory If possible, keeping him from be-
Ing run down or interfered with.
ut Is no easy task to ride horse in
race. The jockey must have all his
wits about him. He does not have
much time to think how he feels. When
