The stiff scrubbirg brush the wife
uses in house cleaning is a good and
merciful horse cleaner. But do not ap-
propriate hers.
So treat the horses that they will be
glad to see you come into their stable
and not act as if they would like to
climb through the roof.
Rely less upon drugs and more upon
good care to keep the horse in good
shape. Condition sanitary will beat
condition powder every time as a con-
dition maker.
If the foundation of the stable is
getting out of condition you should fix
it at once and prevent it's recurrence.
The foot is the foundation Of the horse
in the stable, and it's condition must be
kept good or there may as well be no
horse kept there.

Il. Il Is the -uninpeachaDle evidence
of the manner in which the hoof has
been set to the ground since the shoe
was nailed to 1t and gives valuable
pointers in leveling the hoof. Wear
is the effect of friction between the
shoe and the ground at the moment Of
contact. Since the properly leveled
hoof is set fiat to the ground, the
grounding wear" of a shoe should be
uniform at every point, though the toe
will always show wear, due to securing
at the moment of breaking over"
Everything which tends to lengthen
the stride tends also to make the
grounding wear" more pronounced in
the heels of the shoe, while all causes
which shorten the stride, as stiffening
of the limbs through age, overwork or
disease, bring the grounding wear
nearer the toe. An exception should
be noted, however, in founder, in which
the grounding wear" is most pro
nounced at the heels.-John W. Adams

THE NEwpoRr RINGER.

With Introductory Comment on That
Towns Etiquette of Hospitality.
At luncheon many of the guests do not
take the pains to remove their gloves.
and frequently they merely toy with
the viands placed before them, making
unkind remarks about the same and
''palpably shifting" at this or that dish.
When a matron or bud palpably shifts
at this or that dish in Hohoken. Far
Rockaway or Marthas Vineyard it is
generally assumed that she is almost
angry, but in this city by the sea no
offense is given or intended. Further
more, 1t is the universal custom to ac-
cept half dozen invitations to eat and
Their to turn the back. on three or four
or perhaps five of them, without sery-
ing notice on the hostesses or ever re-
ferring to the preferred and neglected
hospitality. This popularity is attribute
ed by this authority to the fact that
genuine society revolyes within Sharp
ly defined and narrow bounds and sees
so much Of itself that ordinary polite
ness seems almost as ridiculous as
they do in the home circle. The imita-
lions imposed by excessive wealth leave
no room for anything approaching for
mality, unless 1t becomes necessary to
favorably impress an American heiress
who has been fortunate enough to wed
an italian count or some other foreign
notable.
Buffers, bellboys and walters in the
grand houses of Newport, who have
unlimited opportunities for taking notes,
testify that every season develops an
increasing number of ringers. bent on
saving money and determined to be
entertained rather than entertain. The
game as played is not only to partake
Of food as the expense of others as often
as possible, but also to partake Of the
best fare provided on any given day.
Usage does not vet sanction the practice
of inquiring OF hostess what she is
going to have when she urges her
friends to join her at the table, and It
is consequently necessary to forage
around as it were and make selections.
II the menu is satisfactory the first
time trying, well and good; If 1t isn't
1T is the vogue to move on. Mrs. Hobart
Clarence lost all Of her guests one noon
last week. She served consonme and
after they were seated word was
flashed around the board that there was
clam choWder over at Mrs. u. Pembroke
Spencer's cottage. Everybody knows
that clam chowder is more filling than a
thin soup. Self preservation Is per-
missible under all circumstances, and
the Newport climate ,whets the appetite
to the point of distraction. In carrying
out this plan, it has come to be accepted
as matter Of course that the older
families, whose standing is firmly estab-
lished will work the newly admitted
and initiate them into the mysteries of
living well without lighting the kitchen
fire or buying pound Of meat. The
former, upon rising, will swallow a crlii-
Ter or a piece of lemon pie In their own
villas, and they are off to make the
rounds until o'clock the next morning.
It is a gay, light-hearted existence, and
passed in the manner described a very
economical summer can be enjoyed.
