ruins belonged to one period only in

implements and ornaments were found
there; that is the negroid race, who
were akin to the Kaffirs. Frederick

GUS ruins Of Zimbabwo, Rhodesia, were
recently dispelled in lecture by DR..
McIver, before the research de-
partment Of the Royal Geographic
cal Society in London. It has al
ways been supposed that the ruins

origin. Rider Haggard's romance Of
king Solomon's mines" spread their
fame far and wide. DR.. McIver, how
ever, who was commissioned by the
British association to examine the
ruins, now reports that there are no
grounds for the belief that they were
OF any great antiquity.

"A horse is a valuable asset, and
should receive the best care possible.
He should be we'll fed, comfortably
stabbed, carefully groomed and clipped
in the early spring. If he receives
these attentions he will work well and
improve in value A horse lives under
artificial conditions. In his wild state
he required none of these attentions,
for he was able to look out for himself.
The domesticated animal, being worked
under conditions that are in themselves
artificial, must be kept in condition for
such work.
The clipping of q horse in the early
spring is now conceded py all the lead
ing veterinarians to be as essential to
horses we'll being as shoeing him or
giving him comfortable bed to lie on.
Farmers in England and France have
been clipping their horses for many
years, and American farmers are not
slow to realize its advantages. A
clipped horse dries out rapidly after
hard days work, and will rest comfort
ably and be refreshed for the work the
following day. An unclipped horse is
liable to catch the heaves, pneumonia
and all sorts Of colds, rheumatism, etc.
More especially is this so in the early
spring, when his hair is long and he
is soft" II worked hard he will per-
spire freely and the moisture will be

should 60 to nourish him will be used
to replenish the heat that is being con-
stantly taken from his body by the
mass Of cold wet hair. If clipped, the
perspiration will evaporate almost as
soon as secreted, and when put in the
stable he rests comfortably and his
food does him good.
Some years ago Buffalo street car
company tested the value Of clipping
in the following manner: They owned
500 horses. and $50 Of these were
clipped early in the spring and $50
were not clipped. A careful record was
kept of results, and it was found that
Of the $50 uuclipped horses 153 were
afflicted with coughs and pneumonia,
while of the $50 clipped not one case
Of sickness was reported
A man would not expect to enjoy
very good health if he did hard manual
work clothed with heavy underwear, q
heavy suit and a fur overcoat, and
after perspiring freely, as he naturally
would, go to sleep without removing
same. 1t is just as ridiculous to expect
a horse to be in perfect health If
worked under the same conditions.
If you would get the best returns
from your investment In your horse,
treat him right, and be sure and clip
him in the early spring.

A PICTURE SERMON.
Cartoon Which Shows the Root of
the BOy-Bandft EVIL.

Cartoon Which Shows the Root OF
the BOy-Bandit EVIL.
The cities and towns of the country
are having an epidemic Of crime of
greater or lesser degree, in which the
Offenders are mere boys who have
started on the wrong path so early in
life that for them the outlook is any
thing but encouraging. A strong ser
mon on the cause Of this youthful vice
was preached the other day by Nc
Cutcheon, the cartoonist of the Chicago
Tribune. His picture showed a father
and mother sitting by the fireside, the
father reading and the mother sew
ing. where's Willie tonight" asks
the father. 81 don't know" replied
the mother, "do you want him?" NO.
says the father, II just wondered
where he was"
That is the picture, but what a
story it tells! That boy is on danger
GUS ground when he is away from home
evenings and his parents do not know
where he is or what he is doing. The
worst may be imagined when parents
are so careless OF the welfare Of their
boys that they permit them to have the
run Of the town without knowing their
environments and associations. The
temptations Of the cities are so varied
and alluring that men and women of
experience fall. 1t is not to be won
dered, therefore, that youth becomes
an easy victim.
The situation Is so grave that the
question should be handled plainly.
Who is at fault? Primarily the par
ents. When fathers and mothers are
unconcerned as to where their bows
are after night, they are giving an
impetus to the wave Of crime. Juye-
nile courts are unit in demanding
such changes in the laws as will Der
NIT them to punish careless parents.
rather than their erring children, and
common sense proves the need of such
modification.
Parents who bring children into the
world are bound by every law of ma
ture to protect and guide them through
the formative period, and they should
be compelled to do SO by statute or suf-
fer a severe penalty. The parent
knows the pitfalls Of the city and
town, and it should be his duty as
well as pleasure to guide the feet of
bis children until they arrive at the
years Of understanding. If this were
done, the road to ruin would have
fewer travellers, and more boys would
elect to become worthy citizens.
No boy starts out with the aim and
ambition to become a bad man. All his
aspirations are to be a useful citizen,
and If he is properly protected during
his teens, the chances are he will land
all right. And to whom should society
and the state look for his proper care
during these critical years, If not to the

promised to telegraph if the settlement
appeared to be a good opening in the
