Chimes. Worship Of Ancestors.

The one spiritual force that DOM
mates every class of society in Chi
ma is ancestor worship. In the Chi
nese religion there is no other that
can take its place for moment. A
man may or may not worship idols.
He may express his utter skeptic-
ism about them or profess belief in
them. No one cares what he
thinks. Let him, however. neglect
the worship of the dead and he is
looked upon and pointed to with
the bitterest scorn both by his own
relations and by his neighbors. The
worst taunt that the heather can
hurl against the Christian, and the
one that stings him most, is the
sneerlng statement that he has no
ancestors.-New York Tribune.

More About Horse Shoeing.
BY WM. T. BACON.

Editor of the TRIBUNE, Rathdrum,
Idaho, Sir: You aud some of your
readers may think that am crank
on horse shoeing, but 1t has been
done so poorly at this place and
Others that l would like to have 1t
done right. Having had 25 years ex-
perience at the business, / know
something of what l am writing
about. We find a great difference in
horses feet, generally speaking. Even
In single cases we find no two feet
which should be shod exactly the
same. In the first place it is of great
Importance for the shoes To under
stand the nature Of horses foot.
Then he can easily tell when a foot is
In a right position, or when it is mis-.
placed, then be can easily see where
the foot needs trimming. Now there
is not attention enough given to this
part OF the trade of shoeing. Some
owners OF horses like to have their
horses feet cut but very little, es.
peca!Iy at the frog; il possible the
frog should he allowed to come in
contact with the ground, for it acts
as pad and very much lessons the
jar. On the other hand should we ex-
anime some horses feet after they
have been submitted to the evils Of
faulty shOeing we shall find that the
frog is very impe effect. The black.
! smith is not always to blame for this
loss Of the frog. The intelligent sheer
IS certainly aware that If the frog be
cut away, so that nothing but the
shoe cOmes in contact with the earth,
the bndy Of the animal has little If
any sole support. II the borse is ten.
der-f0Oted, leave the shoe of a little
at the heels,a little by bending it but
not by cutting the heels away. l say
1t Is wrong To pare the sole of the
foot as some shoers do. Very little
pairing should be done to the sole.
The braces should not be pared. All
or most Of the cutting, pairing and
smoothing Of the frog, brace, bars or
soles is an injury TO the horse, max
ing him less valuable to his owner.
Nearly all the corns in horses feet
are produced by this practice of par
ing. The frogs have been placed in
the foot by nature to expand the wall
OF the foot. and as soon as you cut
the frog the oily substance begins to
leak out, the frog dries up and be-
comes hard, the wall gets dry and
hard and then cracks. l say no man
that owns horse should ever allow a
blacksmith to cut the frogs, braces or
soles Of his feet. / don't think any
blacksmith ever saw a contracted foot
which had good frog. BY throwing
the weight upon the frog, you force
them up between the walls and cause
them to spread which in turn will act
as wedge crowding out the walls
and contraction will he no more.
Next time will write a small item
on interfering. VIM. r.. BACON
