A Horses Toe Nails.

Few persons realize that horses hoof is really the same thing as the toe nails of human beings or of ani- mals having toes. The horn of hoof grows just as toe nail does. The hoof grows more rapidly in unshod horses than in those wearing shoes, and it grows faster in horses which are well groomed and well fed. But on an average the horn grows about a third of an inch a month. Hind hoofs grow faster than fore hoofs. The toe of the hoof being the longest part, 1t takes longer for the horn to grow down there than at the heel For in- stance, the toe will grow entirely down in from eleven to thirteen months, while the heel will grow down in from three to five months. As the new horn grows out any cracks or defects in the old gradually work down to where they can be cut off, just as with human finger nails you can watch the progress of bruise from the root to the tip.- London Answers.

Ancient Skatea.

The English chronicler has recorded that the youth of London in the twelfth century understood the art of flying over the ice like birds in the air, but the origin of skating is far more an- cient. An Icelandic saga relates how the Norwegian hero Frithjof not only traced verses upon the polished mirror, but also cut the dear name of Inge- bord. Skates have been discovered near Spandau, in Germany, which those competent to express an opinion at- tribute to a period of 5000 years ago. These skates were made from bones of horses, figured and perforated to at- tach to the sandal Similar skates have been found at Moorfelds, in Fins bury, and like discoveries have been made In Berlin in the bed of the Spree These and similar discoveries, we learn, enable the authorities to con- clude that the European ice area in prehistoric times extended from Great Britain to Finland and from Norway to Hungary.-London Globe.
