The lawn could be started the first
year, and a few trees planted as c.
sired about the house and at the
driveway entrance, with perhaps suf-
fisient properly grouped in intermedi-
ate positions to relieve any baroness
that might exist. The next season
snrubbery borders and groups might
be planted with additional trees on
the lawn for ornamental purposes.
The flower garden need not follow till
later. Meanwhile, the pleasure &C.

going on with always some little thing
to look forward to.
Plant trees and shrubs that have
permanent value and not too ordi-
nary. Avoid the cheap. quick-grow-
ing trees which are invariably less
satisfactory in the end and are short

Such beautiful things as the Yellow

An unused piece of swampy ground

FAILURES IN BREEDING HORSES.

Failures of course must occur in
any business when careful attention
to details are not given. In horse
breeding the largest things to study are
the demands of the market. MIR. G.
NJ. Rommel, of the Department of
Agriculture, says to stand at the
horse auction market and note the
horses that do not sell for prices to
cover breeding and growing them.
He says that the reason is that in a
great majority of cases trotting blood
predominates. if any breeding at all
is noticeable. Ask the dealer what
is the breeding, If any. of most of the
large numbers Of unclassified horses
on the market, mis- answer will be-:
"Trotting and coach blood" This is
not because draft blood is more valu-
able, or that the blood Of the light
breeds is not wanted. for the great
cry of the market at present is that
good drivers and saddlers are ex-

The Way to be Brave.

Speak kindly to that poor old man,
Pick up his fallen cane
And place it gently in his hand
That he may walk again.
His bundle, too, replace with care
Beneath his trembling arm,
Brave all the taunts that YOU may hear
To give his life charm.
A drawer deed than scorners boast
Will be your triumph then:
A drawer deed than annals tell
or some distinguished men.
Yes, leave that thoughtless sneering
crowd,
Dare to be good and kind;
Let them laugh, as laugh they may,
Pass on, but never mind.
Pass on, but think once more of him
The wreck that you have seen
How once happy boy like you
He sported on the green;
But all the change-he wanders now
FOrsaken, lone and sad:
Thrice blessed is the task of those
Who strive to make him glad.
Speak kindly to that poor old man,
Pick up his fallen cane,
For that will ease his burdened heart
And make him smile again.

AZTECS AS MEDICAL MEN.
Ancient Race Believed to Have Been
Advanced in Healing Art.

According To recent medical
writer the ancient Aztec race of MeXi-
co was far advanced In the practice
of medicine. The native MeXicans
practiced massage, spliuts were used
in the dressing Of fractured bones, in
famed gums were lanced with obsi
dian knives, aching teeth were ex-
tracted, salt was used as an antisep.
tic, and ground obsIdan as a busting
powder. Stiffness of the muscles and
joints were treated by the sweat bath,
wounds We're sutured with human
hair, the actual cautery was applied
to the edge of the wounds, and venom
was drawn out Of poisoned wounds by
sucking, while bleeding was practiced
in obstinate headaches.
The hygiene of the teeth was well
looked after very hot food being
avoided, as was the use of cold water
after eating hot food Wooden tooth
picks, clean water, and powdered
charcoal served for dentifrice In
short, the practice of medicine anon a.;
those early MeXicans compares very
fayorably with that in vogue at the
time Of the landing of the pilgrim
