PHoToaRAPHING HORSES.
Little Tricks of the Camera to Get
the Best Effects.
From the New York Tribune.

From the New York Tribune.
Photographs of horse show prize
winners and of beasts whose owners
aspire to honors are in good demand
during show times. and photograph
ers who make that branch of the busi-
ness speciality have a busr time.
"lt makes no easy matter TO make
good horse picture" said one photo
sraphcr. although every amateur
thinks himself equal to the task. A
horse must be taken from the proper
point or his owner VIII not recognize
the picture. If the camera is too near
the subject certain points will be eX-
aggcrated in the photograph.
THE best results are obtained by
placing the hors. on ii slight incline
so that the fOrefeet are Il trile higher
than the hind icch This position
throws the head up. Then swapping
the fingers or making any slight noise
will cause the animal to prick up his
ears, and at the moment when he Is
in this position of attention the pho
tographer makes tn" picture.

ISLAND OF MONTE CRISTo.
History of the Spot Made Famous by
Dumas.

from the Detroit Free Press.
The submarine cable CONNECTING
the mainland of Italy with the island
of Monte CriSto is now completed
otherwise no changes have been
made on the island, and the small
but pretty villa. surrounded by its
picturesque grounds and park. has
not been enlarged. as when the King
and Queen stay there they will dis
penSe as heretofore with the presence
of gentlemen and ladies in waiting
and liv" the life of private people Of
Bourgeois rank.
The history of this island rendered
SO famous by the most popular of all
the novels of Alexander Dumas, writes
the Maruuise de FOntenoy is an in
teresting one, which doubtless those
who have read the book will like to
hear. From the eighth to the six.
teenth century it was inhabited by
monks. the ruins Of whose monastery.
perched on the loftiest peak of the
highlands, are. still to be seen. as are
likewise the ruins of the fort on the
SeashOre. which they built in the
twelfth century. to defend themselves
against the attacks of the Barbary
pirates. The latter, however, invaded
the islands in force in the sixteenth
century. sacked the monastery and
carried the monks off into slavery in
Tunis and Algeria For the next two
hundred years the island remained
absolutely uninhabited, and il was
not until the end of the eighteenth
century that the Grand Duke of Tus-
cnny established penal colony there,
with IA small garrison of soldiers To
keep watch over the convicts.
This was in turn abandoned after IL
time. and again the island remained
uninhabited until a very wealthy and
eccentric Englishman of the name Of
Taylor took Il fancy to the place while
yachting in the Mediterranean and.
visiting Florence. induced the Grand
Duke of Tuscany to sell the island To
him. He built the villa. Which still
exists. surrounded 1t with pretty
grounds and park and lived ther~ In
solitude for a number of Years, his
island monarchy and his eccentric
isolation undoubtedly giving to Alex
ander Dumas the idea of his novel of
Monte Cristo." Al length Taylor
got tired of the island and disappeared,
whereupon first of all the Tuscan au-
thorities, and after 1860 the Italian
government. made vain efforts to
culoniZe il, ultimately selling it to the
we'll known Florentime Marquois Gi-
nori who used il as game preserve.

Mrs. Edward Stevens, of Carthage,

81 now take pleasure in notifying
you that my husband has entirely re-
covered from catarrh. He is well
man to-day, thanks to you and Peruna.
He took six bottles of your medicine
as directed, and it proved to be just
the thing for him. His appetite is
good and every thing he eats seems to
agree with him. His cough has left
him and he is gaining in flesh, and
seems to be we'll every way. l hope
others will try your medicine and re-
ceive the benefits that we have. Mrs.
Edward Stevens.
When the catarrh reaches the throat
it is called tonsilitis, or laryngitis.

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that is
by constitutional remedies. Deafness is
caused by an. infamed condition of the mt.
cous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets infamed you have rumbling
sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal con-
dltion, hearing will be destroyed forever;
