government academies he has 20 stand an ex-

his physical defects are noted. careful study

"a realization is evidenced by the enormous in

the large attendances annually recorded at these

The two government academies at West Point

point OF the excellence and perfection of their
military training, and il would be hard TO find
any military school abroad which could excel
rither OF them. But there are in this country
several schools any OF which could give either

The Middle Horse.

A farmer. blowing with three
horses hitched abreast, noticed that
the middle horse became tired and
exhausted long before either of its
mates. AS the animal was the
equal in every way of the other two
he was puzzled as to the cause Of
its not being able to stand the same
amount of work. He finally OBJ
served, however, that as they drew
the pillow along the three horses held
their noses close together, and with
the result that the middle horse
was compelled to breathe the ex-
pired air from its fellows. The
farmer then procured a long Jock
ey" stick which he fastened with
straps to the bits of the outside
horses. The device worked perfect
ly, for, given its rightful share of
good fresh air, the middle horse
was able to do the same amount of
work with no greater fatigue than
its fellows,
Many persons are like the mid
die horse; they do not get their
rightful share of fresh, pure air
And this is why they are not able
to perform as much work nor Of
as good a quality as they would
otherwise be able to do. Rails

when searched a pair of (brass)

been in trouble for he boosted OF
getting out of the Shelby County

will ferment, and undigested will
pass along through the bowels,

possible.
We know a man who is mad all
the time because people eat let

lieveS others should.
Every time We hear a funeral
sermon mentioned, it is referred to
as the worst ever preached. That
funeral sermons are very unpopu-
lar may be accepted as a fact.
We have observed in a long life
time that the fatter and more COM

When a man is treated mean by
