A KICK

Farmers kick, so do the horses, at
the malicious practice of throwing
waste paper on the street which has
resulted in several runaways, and
many have been averted only by
prompt action.
Waste paper and bills are scattered
promiscuously about, regardless of
consequences. However gentle horse
may be, he objects to flying scraps
of paper. And we, the farmers of adj
jacent territory, hereby protest against
this nefarious practice. FARMER.

Roman Bricks.

When the preparations for rebuild
ing the Campanile, in Venice, were
undertaken the archaeologtstS were
afforded an opportunity to make some
interesting studies Of the bricks. 1t
was found that they had been used
in arches, Notifications, the tops OF
walls and in other ways before they
were built into the campanlle and
that they were not Venetian but Ro'
man bricks. These ancient bricks
were made in slices, for in many the
layers could be seen undisturbed. It
Is said that bricks made this way can
bear a greater weight than modern
bricks. The bricks examined We're OF

the imprint OF q horseshoe, which
may prove that Romans used a horse
shoe like ours, although it Is generally
believed that their horseshoes were
strapped on. not nailed.

Loss of Weiqht In Rowing.

a we'll known physician in New
York city who has long been Identified
with aquatics, says that the average
individual loss OF weight in q four mile
pull whether In d race or row
against time, is two or three pounds.
Under peculiarly trying conditions OF
heat the individual loss may reach five
or six pounds. On the other hand.
says this physician, many oarsmen go
through i four mile pull with the
loss Of only about pound in weight.
This lost weight IS fully recovered by
the next day. Proper training Is so ar
ranged in these days that four mile
race comes only when the oarsmen are
thoroughly rested and at the top of
their training weight, SO that the loss
Of weight rarely indicates that the In
dividual is stale" or below good train
ing condition.
