A Way to Cure Hoof Bound.
Hoof bound or contracted heels are
caused by putting horses that have
been running on wet ground, upon dry,
hard floors, cutting away or rasping
Of the bars, heels and frog, mailing the
shoes 100 close to the heels, high calks,
etc. Hoof bound causes the frog be-
tween the heels to become pinched.
The sole is naturally concave, the heels
are higher than usual and the hoofs
are very hard and dry. The animal
becomes uneasy and frequently shifts
his position from one foot to another,
and later there is lameness also. When
ever driven on hard roads stumbling
is very common, and rapid wearing OF
the shoe. To cure hoof bound, prevent
the cause of the trouble as far as pos
sible, then make poultice by boiling
together equal parts of bran and lin
seed Oil meal Apply poultice luke
warm, and change it twice a day. Al
ter twenty-four hours remove and
wash thoroughly clean with soft water
and soap. Wipe thoroughly dry, and
in half an hour apply pure cod liver
oil to every part Of the hoof and frog,
with rag or soft brush. Do not ap-
ply more oil than the frog will readily
absorb. If too much Oil is put on II
will accumulate dust and become
sticky. When the case is bad one 1t
may become necessary to poultlce the
feet twice a week for two or three
weeks. Apply the cod liver Oil once a
day, preferably at night ii the morse
is worked. It will require from two
to three months to perfect cure II the
case is a bad one. Whenever possible
turn the horse out on pasture that con-
tains some wet ground. We nave
found that cod liver oil applied occa'
sionally, say, once week, when horses
are required to stand much on haro
floors is a wonderful aid to keep the
hoofs in a healthy condition and pre-
vent them from becoming brittle ano
hard.-L. o. Folio, in Agricultural Epl
tomist.

Lord Pauncefote, the British Embassa-

All kinds of troubles are besetting the

deavoring to secure control of the new or

to effect their purpose demands have been
made upon Mayor-elect Schmitz for two
of the most important positions in his

not promise anything and proposes to run
the municipality according to his own
ideas. He took a hand in a stormy meet

and finally invoked the aid of the police in
the interests of harmony.
The meeting was originally called at 11S

the members got together they agreed to
disagree. A week ago ]. S. Parry and G.

ences of the past.
Mr.. Harnsiak's lost toes did not hurt
him, in fact they never did, but the
brain cells which governed his toes re-
membered the corns of former years, and
reminiscently, automatically, hurt him.
In other words, the pain was all in his
mind-as all pain is. No mind, no pain,
is the law. If Mr.. Harnsiak had changed
his mind vigorously enough to have
changed his brain cells. the pain would
have gone.
Lots of people are bothered with illu-
sions that they have built into them
selves. The thing to do is not to have
your brain cells amputated, nor to have
their activity shut off by morphine. but
to change your mind. This is no new
doctrine. Two thousand years ago some
writer said:

your mind"

you can believe it hard enough.

The more likely cause. however, and
one which was noted by the revenue
men, is that their presence was dis
covered by the tug which, without
lights, crept up close to the bank, when
some one on board discovered the glins
of brass buttons.
The tug Immediately steamed out into
the stream and flashed signals to the
house, and at last blew her whistle in
shrill warning.

HAWK STOPPED A

Pottersville, N. May ia chicken
hawk put a sudden end to the matrimo-

Owens. He is a prosperous farmer and
his house was roomy enough to accommo-
date all the guests-practically all the
people of Raritan Township.
The hour set for the wedding was 2
o'clock in the afternoon, and long before
that time the "Squire's" house was
crowded. The bridegroom was there, ner-

licked of the minutes in the sitting room.
Ten minutes before the hour set for the
wedding the carriage of Farmer Gresham
was not in sight. The clock tolled of the
hour of 2. and the guests began to whis-
