TROUBLES OF HORSES.

At the season of the year when
most farm horses have rather an easy
time of life, there is likely to be more
or less liver and kidney trouble
among them, due. to some extent, TO
the liberal feeding and the inactive
life. Oftentimes these troubles de-
velop in an attack of acute indiges-
ton, frequently mistaken for collie.
The first thing to do with horse that
is not eating well is to give dose
of nux vomica three times daily un-
til it RECEIVERS its appetite.
The dose is twenty drops of the
tincture given on the tongue just be-
fore eating. The oats given the ami
NAL should be ground, and in the
grain given in the morning should be
placed half ounce of powdered nj
trate of potash. Then prepare the
following general condition powder.
which acts well on both kidneys and
liver, and give the animal heaping
tablespoonful once day, preferably
at noon. In two pounds of ground
fiaxseed, mix four ounces of powdered
gentian, five ounces or ginger, three
ounces of powdered sulphate of iron
and two ounces of powdered charcoal.
See that all the ingredients are mixed
thoroughly. This powder will tone
up the system of the horse generally.

ITALY,s BABY PRINCE.

Although the royal Italian nursery
is managed in a very democratic
manner, under the supervision of an
English governess and her corps OF
assistants, there are many ancient
prejudice regarding the proper rear
ing of royal baby that much be ad'
herred to and consequently the little
heir apparent, the Prince of Pied
mont, must submit in his helpless in
FAINT state to being swathed in long
bands of linen, which keep his lower
limbs almost immobile, although his
little arms are free.
Although the two little Italian prin
cesses and their new brothers are
not loaded down with the magnii
cence enjoyed by the occupants OF the
Russian royal nurseries, still these
little southern royalties posses some
beautiful and luxurious nursery arti
cles that would cause many western

THE CARE OF THIEVES.


Sinve the beauty specialists are
succeeding in their art in practically
identifying women's faces, every feai
ture Als been experimental upon and
with che most favorable results. The
eyes clone have withstood the sclen.
tific method, and as they are most
delicate organ it is well not to tamper
with them. They are without doubt
the mot salient feature of the face,
and should be cared for as such.
Their beauty lies entirely with the
woman herself. and whether they are
a credit or a discredit to her face is
of ones own making. There are a
few important "don'ts" which, if fol.
lowed, would do much to preserve the
eyes and have a great tendency to
make them beautiful. The following
are some:
Don't read with insufficient light.
Don't read in a moving train.
Don't read while you rock.
Don't read after the eyes have been
taxed with sewing or such like.
Don't use the eyes when they smart
Don't look at the sun.
Don't face the wind if avoidable
without some protection.
Don't squint.
Don't read with the head lowered.
