String halt is virtually an incurable
disease; in other words, medicinal treat
ment seldom proves successful. ..e first
thing to do is to look after the diet Care
full feeding and tonics are sometimes
beneficial. The food should be nutritious
and easily digested, and should be as va
ried in character as possible. Many farm
ers make a serious mistake in feeding
their mules on corn and pulled fodder
alone. A greater variety in the ration
is essential. Such a ration can be improv-
ed by the use of some cotton-seed meal
The farmer should try to grow some cow
pea vine hay, or better still, some vetch
and oat hay, and have a rye pasture or
some other green feed available to turn
his animals on at odd times during the
winter when the ground is not so wet
as to be injured by tramping. If these
suggestions were carried out, there would
be much less trouble from indigestion and
other ills which follow it in horses and
mules. oats, oil meal and bran fed to-
gether prove the most satisfactory diet
to feed animals with this trouble. Four
ounces of common salt, ounces of sui
phur and ounces of hard wood ashes
mixed together and a tablespoonful given
three times a week will sometimes prove
helpful. Fowler's solution of arsenic may
sometimes be given in half-ounce doses
in the weed once daily with good results.
The dose shouldr be increased about one
fourth of an ounce a day until one ounce
is given in the morning and at night.
The treatment SHOULD be discontinued at
the end of two weeks for a fortnight
and then repeated. Care should be ex-
ercised not to continue il too long. In
some cases an operation will relieve

* MiIady's Mirror K

Persons whose noses are red usually find the trouble increased when eating or sitting in a warm room. When flushing. which always shows bright est about the nose. is common 1t is likely an indication that circulation is defective and the blood thin In rec ognizing these two facts and chang ing them lies the secret of cure.
 Rarely will external applications be of any real value. for they are simply strong astringents. calculated to shrink the tiny blood vessels that have be- come distended. Before these lotions can accomplish this shrinkage. how ever. they may dry the skin SO 1t will look chapped or scaly. while the color Is not iessened. So the many formulas for external application are of no avail.
 But. when the blood is thin and cir culstion defective. treatment which will improve these conditions should be resorted to. For instance. iron is an excellent tonic to take internally as it is blooJmaking. To cut down food because 1t causes one to flush is only to aggravate an already weakened state. for one must take nourishins and bloodmaking food and by build ing the system gain sufficient strength to overcome the tendency toward heightened color.
 There is no special diet to adopt. for any food difficult to digest should Dc avoided. and tea and coffee. being stimulants, should not be drunk.
 Only tepid water should be used on the face. and the skin should be gently patted. not rubbed. for the latter brings color to the surface. Under nc consideration should one stay in [ room that is hot or where the air fl stale. as the result in either case vii be the same-an exceptionally red nose
 Exercises that will make the bloot circulate rapidly should be taken regu Iarly. For this walking is excellent if the pace is brisk. and any one wht can use dumbbells or Indian club' should do so or take simple calistheni' exercises every morning before an opei window

About blackhsads.

Blackheads are among the most try ing blemishes. They are ugly and give the appearance of lack of cleanliness. Sometimes they do indicate that not sufficient care has been taken in wash ing the skin and removing the impuri- ties. but there are times when they are due to some internal disorder. and then physician should be consulted. A lotion which can beapplied e1ter- nally and which Is said to be very beneficial is made as follows: Pure brandy. three ounces: cologne. one ounce: liquid potassa. one-half ounce Apply at night after washing the face thoroughly with soap and water.

4 stageeoach numbered up zigzag road in the Rocky mountains. On tho outside scat behind the driver sat gentleman whose eminently respectable traveling suit and his clean cut fea- lures indicated that he was 10 the manner born. Beside him sat a young man in the costume of the country. His skirt was flannel: his hat was sombrero.
 On the Dext seat back sat a lady. the aristocratic gentleman's wife. and beside her girl of nineteen. their daughter The man in the sombrero was telling them about the mountains and its people and pointing out the more prominent peaks. 10 which the travellers listened with great interest. The sun was hot. the pace was slow. and the two com mbined tended to make the driver drowsy When the coach reached an enlinence and started down an incline. instead of being wide awake to the dangers of mountain travel. he was nodding. He not only failed to put on the brake. but drop ped the reins. Be was awakened by the shouts of the passengers behind him. who saw terrible death staring them in the face. The horses. un- checked, started down the slope and were soon going at breakneck pace.
 The driver basely abandoned his post and. putting lis foot on the iron step beside him. swung himself to the ground. The young man who had been pointing out objects of interest let himself down over the footboard on to the tongue. gathered up the reins. quickly remounted to the box, put on the brake and managed to reduce the pace sufficiently to enable the coach to turn curve without going over a precipice. Then after further short descent he brought the horses to a standstill. The first sensation that came 10 hira after it was all over was feeling the arms of the aristocratic gentleman about bis neck.
 One day E. couple of years after thi, episode Mrs. Murphy and her daugh ter. while bowling along Ocean avenu, at Newport. received a terrible shock.
