bands and the TOE piece are Joined by
a bolt, thus firmly holding the carrier
TIC the foot. because the hoof at the sole
has a larger circumference than at the
point where the bands encircle it,
as best shown in Fig. 8. At
the rear ends of the carrier, cups are
formed to receive the heels of the
hoof. These cups prevent the carrier
from spreading open and slipping off
the hoof.
This is a most valuable feature of the
invention, for it obviates the necessity
of binding the rear ends of the carrier
together with a cross-bar, and thus
avoids that circular constructing pres
sure which has been the chief failing
of many previous Inventions 1t is
claimed for the horseshoe carrier, that
it will greatly reduce the cost of horse
shoeing. The shoe proper is attached TO
the carrier, as shown in Fig. l, by means
of screws or countersunk rivets, SO that
it can be removed from the carrier
when worn out, and another shoe at
tached. Also this method greatly di-
minishes the difficulty of shoeing a
restless horse, as, before applying it to
the hoofs, the shoe is first made fast to
the carrier, and then the carrier with
the shoe attached is put On in half
minute, and made fast by the turning
of single bolt. a shoe of paper, IN
dia rubber, leather, or any other ma
terial can be as easily attached to these
carriers as an ordinary shoe. Patents
on this naillesS device for attaching
horseshoes have been procured by

Secretary Fisher S. Harris of the

Secretary Wood of the Promotion Com

Governor Carter a strong letter urg-

Fisher states that he is not unmindful
of the difficulties in the way of his
Exceliency's attending. but failing his
presence we will be very glad to have
him send some strong man as his per

You will note also," continues Mr..
Fisher, that the Territory of Hawaii
is entitled to two delegates in addi-
ton to the one from your organiza-

of the Governor not being able to send
these two delegates directly from Ho-
nolulu, he might select two good men
from the mainland.

QUICK LUNCH ROOMS
FAIL IN LONDON

Many thousands of American Wis
itors to London last summer will learn,
without much regret probably, that the
two American quick lunch rooms in
the Strand have gone out of business.
by the display of American
bunting, and dreaming perhaps of sue
culent green corn and sweet potatoes,
many Yankees entered these shops to
find as the most characteristic Ameri-
can dishes their old Park Row friends,
''sinkers'' and griddle cakes. Even
Americans, if they are wise, do not eat
such fare in summer. Though many Of
the viands had American names, and
were doubtless prepared according to
American formulas, they rarely attain
ed the true flavor of Yankee dishes.
The ice cream soda dispensed tasted OF
the smoke laden London atmosphere,
and failed utterly to recall Broadway
mixtures. except with longing Waffles

lic but they lost their sweet crispness
in crossing the Atlantic.
The many mirrors and bright lights
of these Strand lunch rooms did not,
alas! reflect the brighter faces OF
American Mattresses. The English
girls who took ones order lacked the
retentive memory and dizziness of their
New York sisters, and the service was
often quick only in name. Their
cockney accent. too, dispelled all re
collections of the shrill beef and draw

It is we'll known that the common
on the shoe is not only primitive in
the extreme, but also very injurious to
the hoof. This is especially true of
the thoroughbred horse, whose hoofs
those of a coarser-bred animal. Furth
ermore, a racehorse must be shod with
a special racing shoe before each race,
and Immediately after the race this
with an exercising shoe. AS a result of
this constant changing of shoes, the
hoofs are, in time, SO badly torn as to
seriously cripple the horse. To remedy
these conditions, inventors have long
been endeavoring to devise a horseshoe
that could be applied without the use
of nails; and while some very clever
inventions have been made, most of
them have been too complicated or eX-
pensive to compete with the common
horseshoe. In the accompanying en-
craving we illustrate a very simple de-

hoofs without the use of nails. This
device. which is properly called
horseshoe carrier, is the extreme of
simplicity, being stamped in a single
piece out of mild sheet steel, one-eighth
inch thick and bent to the required
shape. 1t viii be noted that the car
rer is formed with a toe piece, and
with two side bands extending forward
from the heel ends of the device. These

correctness. Surely you cannot ask for
better proof than such a conclusive

as follows: MY age is 79-well past

the parent of eight children. Being
so far advanced in years. I regard the

satisfied the pills did me much good"
Our kidneys filter our blood. They
work night and day. When healthy
they remove about 500 grains of i'm
pure matter daily, when unhealthy
some part of this impure matter is
left in the blood. This brings On many
