The Llama With a Saddle,

In his native country the llama is
trained as a beast Of burden, and in
this capacity is very useful for. hard
and wiry by nature, he can carry as
much, as 100 pounds. AS a mount.
too, he is quite easy to train. Indeed.
both the llama and the oneiko take to
the saddle as to the manner born
when once they have assured them
selves that their teacher wishes them
well. Their most striking popularity
as saddle animals. however. is a strong
objection to having their heads in any
way pulled about by their riders. So
long as their mouths are left alone
they will amble along quite contented-
~ at a fair rate of speed. but if they
are ridden by some one with a heavy
hand they show tendency to stop at
once. whipping round in a manner dis
tinctly disconcerting to those who do
not quite realize what is going to hap

It is not generally known that John
Wesley in one of his brief intervals of

primitive Physic.'' 1t was first pub
ished in 1747, and it ran into. at least
twenty-four editions. The author was
greatly surprised there was SO swift
and large demand for it. In the
later editions he was able to add the
word Tried" to certain remedies the
virtues of which he had meanwhile
found opportunities of testing: After
five years careful trial and notwith-
standing the objections of the learned
he recommends for the ague Ito go
into the cold bath just before the cold

coming of the fit. To prevent apoplexy
use the cold bath and drink only wa

"put handful of salt with pint of
cold water and If possible pour it

gives four ways Of curing old age
''take tar water morning and evening
or "a decoction of nettles'' or .'be cleo

great panaceas in the Wesleyan doc
trine are the use Of cold water and the
use Of electricity, and at the end Of
the book are columns Of every sort OF
disease which may be overcome by
these simple expedients.- st. James,
