CURIOUS LAND Law.

One of the curious phases of the
land law in Belgium is that the earth
of a landowner beyond certain
depth does not belong to him. Should
the owner of the surface discover a
coal or gold deposit underlying his
property he must first obtain gov
ernment concession before he can be-
gin mining operations. The land
beyond the prescribed depth in which
wealth in the raw has been discover
ed may be conceded to person other
than the surface owner, who may
operate under certain government
regulations, one of which is that the
owner of the surface is entitled to 8
per cent. of the value extracted.
The mine pays to the government
an amount determined by the value
and Importance of the concession,
after which it must pay to the gov
ernment sum proportioned to the
value of the total extraction. The
government names the conditions
under which the mines as we'll as
other industrial establishment shall
be operated and protects and safe
guards the health and lives on the
workmen as we'll as provides for
the public safety.
The minister of industry and labor
appoints a state board of mining
engineers, authorized to regulate the
working of all mines and all estab-
lishments considered dangerous OF
ipsanitary, whether shaft or open
mines, quarries, factories, coke oven
plants or briquette works.-B0st0'l

NAIL WOUNDS IN HOOPS.

1t has long been known that nail
pricks and other similar injuries in
the horse's hoof may lead to an infec-
ton followed by formation of pus uu-
der the horn of the hoof and a serious
general disease of the horse or at
least the loss of the hoof. In bull
letin of the South Dakota Station,
Moore has recently reported results
obtained in a number of cases from
applying strict antiseptic treatment
to injuries of this sort, says the In
dianapolis Mews.
The method consists in pairing
away the horn of the hoof from the
affected part until the blood oozes
out. The hoof is then thoroughly
washed in a solution of bichlorid of
mercury at the rate of one part to
500 of water, after which absorbent
cotton saturated in a solution OF the
same strength is applied to the
wound and the whole hoof is packed
in cotton surrounded by bandage
and we'll coated with tar. This pre-
vents any further filth from coming
in contact with the wound. The
operation must usually be done by a
qualified veterinarian. Subsequent
treasment, however, can be applied
by the average farmer, since all that
is necessary is to pour little of this
solution of bichlorid of mercury upon
the cotton which projects from the
upper part of the bandage. The
cotton will absorb enough of the So
luton to keep the wound moistened
and hasten the healing porcess.

TOO MUCH FOR HIM.

The proprietor of lanyard built
stand on one of the main streets of a
Virginia town for the purpose of sell
ing leather and buying new hides.
When he had completed the build
ing he considered for long time what
sort of sign to put up to attract at
tention to the new establishment.
Finally happy thought struck him.
He bored an auger hole through the
doorpost and stuck calf's tail into
it with the tufted end outside.
After a while he saw solemn
faced man standing near the door
looking at the sign, his eyes in a
round, meditative stare behind his
spectacles. The tanner watched him
a minute, then stepped out and ad-
dressed him.
"Good morning, sir,'' he said.
Morning" said the other, with
out taking his eyes off the sign.
"Want to buy leather?" asked the
tanner.
"No."

WOMEN, IN ORDER TO SAVE MONEY.

But the poor slave to economy
said it would be a 'bad habit" to
form, as she might want to rest
another day. So she remained awake
and talked about the money she was
saving for the future.
And what is the benefit of money
saved at such a sacrifice? During
recent trip to Paris the writer saw
a pathetic illustration of the results
of such economy.
A woman who had worked indoors
and out for a lifetime and who had
not been beyond the limits of her
country town for twenty years
occupied the same compartment.
She was, perhaps, fifty years of age,
to Judge by the appearance of her
husband, but her face was as old as
that of many town-bred women of
seventy. Her body was stiff and
awkward her clothing, bought for
the occasion, worn with evidence
discomfort. She. was i'll at ease in
the train, yet anxious to inform her
chance associates of her wealth.
"My husband has often travelled
in his business" she said, "but /
always stayed at home and looked
after things. Now we are we'll off
rich, in fact-and I mean to see a
little of the world" But how much
better had she seen little of the
world as she went along and accus-
toned herself to its ways and ideas.
No husband is doing his duty by
his wife who encourages her in such
a starved and mercenary life. No
woman is using the life God gave
her to its best advantage who works
year in and out with no food for
mind, eye or soul save the thought
that she is saving money.
Better live in the old house to the
end and make it bright with memo
ries of happy hours spent in books
and music, make and keep it nov
city by glad returns from vacation
jaunts, than to live starved exist
ence that some other woman or
your own wrecked self may move
into new mansion.
Subscribe for magazines, buy the
newspapers, take a vacation rom
home at least once each year, and
take at least an hour of relaxation
and rest each day.
Give your mind larger subjects of
thought and conversation than neigh
borhood happenings, and set higher
goals for your soul than a heap OF
money.
Learn little each day about the
people who have lived in the world
before you and those now living in it
under conditions different from your
own.
Give your body good care, and do
not be ashamed to try to keep youth
in your face and heart.
There is no excuse for ignorance
or ugliness or ill-health in the world
today.
A woman who has allowed herself
to be ignorant, unkempt or i'll into
middle life is a pauper, no matter it
she owns millions of money.-Wo-
mans Life.

THE MOTHER WHO LAUGHS.

There are many conscientious tath-
ers and mothers who make them
selves and their children miserable by
taking youthful foibles too seriously.
1t is an innate propensity of child
possessed of average good health and
spirits to make older people laugh
with him not at him, at the things
that seem amusing to his own sense.
And the mother who has the blithe
and ready humor to enter into his
fun becomes his most fascinating
companion. He heeds her rebukes
and bends to her correction without
i'll feeling where sternness would
arouse his pride and ire, for he is
assured that she is ready to share all
his innocent planks and that her dis
approval has no foundation in impa-
thence or injustice. And when the
day arrives that childish things are
put away" and the grown men and
women look backward to their early
home, with what throb of pleasure
they say, when things happen !:
Mother would appreciate this.
She had the quickest sense of humor
of any woman you ever saw !" And
underneath these light words is the
thought, "How happy that dear
mother made me, and how love
her !"
