PRsstnE of Horned Cattle.

Horned cattle and horned sheep are
rapidly disappearing. Many of the
cattle bred and fed in the corn belt
are hOrnless. Breeds of this kind are
growing In popularity. In the noun
famous country and on the plains
wild cattle needed long horns for the
protection of themselves and their
young. Now, however, with the plains
thickly settled and with few wild ami
mails the cattle do not need horns.
Among the hornless breeds are the
Galloway, Angus, Red Poll and Polled
ShOrthorns. Polled Jersey and Polled
Hereford are also coming into favor.
By the application of caustic potash
the growth of the horns Is prevented
in the young calf-Inter Ocean.

CONSCIENCE NOT CoWARDLY.

Our glory Is this, the testimony Of
our Conscience Cor. I: IL.
Paul's statement Is the answer to
the question. Does conscience make
towards of us all? 1t is an emphatic
no. A gift of God, conscience could
not be the curse 1t would be If 1t
made its owner victim of abject fear.
1t may make one afraid of the punt
tive sanction Of the law. If so it Is
salutary check, but does not unnerve.
The best among us, when the blood
burns and greed goads needs to have
the awfulness of an offended Deity
flashed terrifyingly upon him. Such
warning engenders a caution which
implies courage, not pusillanimity. He
of Tarsus when He calls conscience
our glory lifts that faculty up to the
dignity which is its by every right,
divine and human.
Conscience makes us towards? No!
But 1t unmasks towards. 1t reveals
every character of which the fiber
makes not for intrepidity. Where
manhood is, conscience inspires PROV
ess; where cowardice Is, it exposes the
aspen trembling of him who dares not
battle for the right. Mans glory and
mans shame come from the evidence
OF conscience. BY It's declaration he
Is acquitted or condemned. It's ver-
dict CARDS him with a glory which
dazzles in the dark ways of life or
accuses him of backsliding from high
ideals into the slough of mean aspira-
tions, corrupt desires and dishonest
practices. The noblest thing we can
say of man is that his word Is his
bond, and that his bond Is stronger
than corporations or trusts or any of
the associations of men.
What has fortified such a man so
impregnably is the courage with which
he has followedsthe suggestion Of con-
science As It babe, he gave to God
what was Gods and to Caesar what
was Caesars. No man can do more.
Such a one, whether confronting the
terror of unprecedented adversely or
riding on the highest wave of prosper
ity, whether in war or in peace, in
health or in sickness, in life or in
death, whether summoned by God or
by his fellows, is sublimely afraid
Before the bar of unpurchasable JUS
tice the testimony of mans con-
science Is the umpire of his fate, no
matter what his creed may be. AS he
has treated his conscience here so will
1t deal with him then. Yet conscience
is only the herald of the law. 1t gives
light, but the strength which the will
needs to obey its behests must de-
scend from above. Here religion comes
to the rescue That religion must be
heaven-born No religion can prove
that its charter is divine unless it
make it irrefutably clear that it holds
within its gift a light which so illu-
mines conscience as to make it iner-
rant and endows mans will with a
robustness which makes it indomit-
able
A man whose conscience Is so en-
lightened and whose will is so pano-
piled can never be coward, but al
ways and everywhere a hero.

DoN'Ts FOR cHURCHMEN.

Don't try to give this world holy
tone by drowning it's walls with hymn

Don't overlook the fact that the
value of a gift is measured by it's real

Cows GIVING Dov, Min


Cows Giving Down Milk.
John Burrows, the well-known scien-
llst' In regard to COWS giving down
tnelr milk says: Many persons think
tnat giving down or holding up the
milk by the cow is voluntary act.
In fact, they fancy the udder as a
vessel filed with milk, and that the
COW releases or withholds 1t just as
she chooses. But the udder is a
mandatory; it is filled with blood,
from which the milk Is manufactured
While you milk. This process Is con-
trolled by the cows nervous system.
When she is excited or in any way
disturbed, as by strangers or by TAX
Ing away her calf or any other cause.
the process is arrested and the milk
will not flow. The nervous energy
goes elsewhere. The whole process is
as involuntary as is digestion in man
and is disturbed or arrested in about
the same way.

Civil War Stories
In Bad Taste.

There was unveiled at Anderson
vile, Ca, monument of Capt Hen
ry Wirz, of the Confederate army.
The monument was erected through
the efforts of the United Daughters of
the Confederacy Of Georgia. There
regiments and divisions who have not
been honored thus They have been
passed by to commemorate a captain
who Is remembered only because he
was in command of a prison camp
where $4,000 Union soldiers are bur-
led and because he was hanged after
having been found guilty by a mill
tary commission of having conspired
to injure the health and destroy the
lives Of the prisoners in his charge
and of having murdered some Of them
In violation of the laws and customs
Of war.
A saner view can be taken now of
the Andersonville question than was
possible in 1865, when Wirz was exc
cuted. The Confederate government
was willing to exchange man for man
all the prisoners it held. 1t would
thereby have strengthened its armies,
prolonged the war, and added to the
number Of it's victims. Since that
would have been the result an ex-
change was refused
1t was easier for the North to care
for prisoners of war than 1t was for
the South. AS a matter of military
necessity the Confederates had to
care first for the soldiers at the
front. So poor we're their transporta-
ton facilities that the men in the
trenches at Petersburg were often on
short rations. This may be urged in
mitigation of the inadequate supply
at Andersonville, but with a little
more energy the prisoners could have
been better fed
The prison guard was small and
made up largely Of half grown boys.
There was the ever present fear of a
concerted outbreak by the prisoners.
That fear explains, while it does not
justify, some of the crimes charged
against Wirz. 1t was his misfortune
that he was in no way qualified to fill
SO trying position. He could in
several ways have bettered the con-
dition of the prisoners without being
false to his duty, but he could not
see 1t, or, If he did, he refused to act.
If Wirz were to be tried to-day al
lowances would be made for his diff
cult position which could not be
made in 1865. He would not be sent
to the gallows, but he would not es-
cape punishment. Even admitting
that he ought not have been hanged,
the United Daughters of the Confed-
eracy cannot make a hero or a mar
tyr Of him. He never showed YES
tige of sympathy for the brave men
who were in his custody He was an
unfeeling and sometimes brutal jail
er. AS this is the best history will
condescend to say Of him, and as
there are thousands Of homes where
his name Is odious, the Daughters of
the Confederacy were guilty Of poor
Judgment and bad taste in giving him
monument. The South should dis
own him and ask that his name be
rgotten.-Chicago Tribune.
