A Protracted Game.

There is a story of protracted
sitting at the card table, at which Gov
Stokes, of North Carolina, and Mount
iov Pailey, sergeant-at-arms OF the
senate. We're two of the players. II
ran in this wise: The senate had ad'
iounrned from Thursday over to Mon.
day.
The party sat down to cards Thurs
day evening. They played all night
and all the next day, only stopping oc'
casionally for refreshments. The game
was continued Friday night and Sat
urday. through Saturday night and all
day Sunday and Sunday night, the
players resting for a snatch of sleep
as nature became exhausted. Monday
morning the game was in full blast,
but at ten o'clock Bailey moved an adj
iournment, alleging that his official
duties required his presence in the
senate chamber. Stokes demonstrated
but the ergeant-at-arms persisted and
rose from the table. The governor
grumbled and scolded, but finally gave
it up. swearing that if he had suspect
ed Bailey would break up the game
thus prematurely he would have seen
him-anywhere before he would have
invited him to join the party.

THE FOOD VALUE OF
THE IRISH POTATO
Ninety-Six Per Cent OF is
Composition.

The digestibility of the potato de-
ponds upon the mealiness. AS a rule
the potato is easily and completely
digested but, as is true in regard to
all starchy foods, it must be thorough
ly cooked or it is difficult of diges-
ton.
Stories of Irish life give accounts
of the times of famine, when the peo-
pie lived almost exclusively upon the
potato. Under these circumstances
the potato is cooked in such way as
to leave the center hard. The children
call this hard part the bone" of the
potato and will cry for it if the potato
should be well cooked. The half
cooked part of the potato is hard of
digestion and consequently remains
longer in the stomach than we'll
cooked potato would and so prevents
the sensation of hunger. AS the di-
gestibility of the potato depends upon
its mea1iness, very old or very new
potatoes are Objectionable as they will
be soggy, no matter how well they

Breeding of Draft Horses

An English horse breeder of large
experience says in London breeders
journal that the question of age is of
Importance in breeding, but it is one
about which there exists considerable
difference of opinion, or, at least, of
practice. In different parts of the
country we often find unbroken FLIES
mated at two or three years old, and
it looks economical for the animal to
be carrying foal while herself grow
ing into money, but we must remem
Der that such animals are not mature,
and there is a general agreement that
the growth and development of the
dam are impaired, while the foals are
never so strong, healthy, and full of
vigor as when the dam is mature,
when she has her first foal. At the
same time, we would rather breed
from a well-grown three-year-old filly,
doing nothing but carry her foal, and
given good keep during the CESSATION
and lactation, than from some poor old
crock who has spent her best days
in city, on hard corn and harder
roads, or one that old age or lameness
Or other infirmity has rendered unfit
for anything else. 1t is fortunate, per-
haps, for the race, if not for the own
er of the mare, that such animals very
often prove barren when tried, or dc
not appear in season, and older mares
that have bred regularly are in quite
q difforont nOcitiOn from tho old hard.

With the exception of bread, the
food most commonly found upon the
table is the white or Irish potato.
This vegetable, now so popular, has
not been known to the people of the
civilized countries as long as the
beans and peas, which were discussed
in the last paper. In fact the potato,
as an article of food, is a compare
lively recent discovery.
The name Irish potato is so com
monty applied to this plant, that many
believe it to be a native of Ireland.
1t is, however, product of the new
world, and was found under cultiva-
ton by the natives when America was
discovered. 1t is believed that pota-
toes were carried from South America
to Spain early in the sixteenth cen
fury and also introduced into Vir-
ginia by the Spanish explorers. His
torians differ as to whom belongs the
credit of introducing this vegetable
into Great Britain, but the majority
of them agree that Sir Walter Raleigh
