A Horses Toe Nails.

Few persons realize that a horses hoof is really the same thing as the toe nails of human beings or of ani- nlals having toes. The horn of hoof grows just as a toe nall does. The hoot grows more rapidly in unshod horses than in those wearing shoes, and it grows faster in horses which are we'll groomed and well fed. But on an average the horn grows about & third of an inch a month. Hind hoofa 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 a bruise from the root to the tip.-.

A book about George Canning and his friends contains among its anec- dotes two which deal with Hookhan Frere and the absentmindedness for which he was noted. Frere married Lady Errol. and while they were en- gagged he took her into supper at q ball. While they were talking he drank up the glass of wine he had poured out for her and then took her back supperless to the ballroom. After the wedding he went straight from che church to, MT. Murray, the pub fisher, who asked him to stay to din. ner, to which he very nearly agreed, remembering only just in time that Lady Errol was waiting to start on the honeymoon"
