Halrplns and Other Pins.

Hairpins have been elaborated as a
means of decoration since the earliest
times. Particularly beautiful is the
variety and delicacy of their work

being the gold pins which were found
at Salamis in Cyprus, and are now in
the British museum. Even more hand
some were the Saxon pins of a later
date, with their shank of brass. head

and pearls. There were, too, the
larger sort of pins SO corspicuously
and frequently mentioned in the Bible.
The instrument driven by Jael through
the temple of Sisera was probably a
tent-pin, while Delilah fastened the
web of Samson's hair with a pin or
batten. In the middle ages pins were
a great fashion-indeed, a great ne
cessity-in France, and we have 1T on
record that in 1347 10000 pins were
removed from the royal wardrobe for
one of the French princesses. The
convenience was probably little
later in reaching England. but in 1910
we hear of Queen Catherine (Howard)
importing pins from France. In 1860
the trade underwent considerable
change. brass superseding iron. while

early In the spring. This is a valu-
able and perfectly feasible practice
where the driver knows his business
and protects the horse from sudden
changes and bad weather. but It is
safer to follow the half clipping plan
for most horse owners. until warm
weather has come to stay, and with
its advent most of the reason for clip
ping horses departs.
Pneumonia and kindred diseases are
more prevalent at this time of year
than at any other, and this prevalence
is due more to changing seasons and
work than to any other one cause. AS
far as possible, avoid getting your
horses too warm, and protect them
carefully while they are cooling and
drying of. While it is desirable to
get them dry as soon as possible after
stopping work, they must not run any
risk of chilling while drying.
Where horses have box stalls or can
roll around on an ample supply of dry
bedding they will dry out fairly soon.
If there are a large number of them
in the same room, means must be pro-
vided to drain the liquid manure from
lu6 bldll uOOES do ldoI pOooiDic,
and the stable room must be thor
oughly ventilated. without drafts.
Horses which are clipped all over
do not suffer from the first warm
weather as much as unclipped or part
ly clipped horses. They perspire less,
and hence dry off faster. For this
very reason it Is necessary to blanket
them carefully during cool weather In
order to keep them from drying too
rapidly and contracting colds.
With the opening of the spring sea-
son many horses which have been do
ing but light work during the winter
will be required to start in doing a
full days work, and this change will
be made very suddenly. AS result,
they will develop the various troubles
that afflict green horses, and 1t is well
to take all possible precautions
against such troubles. Start them in
as easily as possible. increasing the
work gradually.

TELLS OF CLIMBING CATFISH
Mining Enslneer Declares That Odd
Fish Found In Colombia Resem-
bles Bullheads Of U. 8.

New York.-A South American fish
that can climb out of deep pot-hole
and even creep against a strong cur
rent, on the bottom of a swift stream,
was described recently to the New
York Academy of Sciences by Mr.. R
D. o. johnson, mining engineer who
has spent several years in the high
lands of ColombiaAa region visited by
few naturalists. The case is evidently
one Of adaptation to environment. The
mountain streams of Colombia are tor
rental, and no ordinary fish could live
In them. The climbing or creeping cat
fish, Mr.. Johnson goes on to say, re-
sembles closely the horned pout or
'bullheads" of the United States, and
are highly esteemed as food by the
Colombians, who call them captain.
Says the writer 1--WE quote from re-
printof his paper in pamphlet form):
Under usual conditions they are
clumsy and awkward swimmers, wrig-
Cling through the water like tadpoles,
but as creepers and climbers they are
without rival in the fish family. The
mouth is small, but is surrounded by
a broad. soft. rubber-like flap. very

Woman. s Beauty is

To Have Health, Bowel
Movement is Absolutely
NecesS0ry-Hotv Best
to Obtain it

II woman's beauty depended upon
cosmetics every woman would be a
picture of loveliness. But beauty lies
deeper than that. It lies in health.
In the majority of cases the basis of
health and the cause of sickness, can
be traced to the action of the bowels.
The headaches, the lassitude. the
sallow skin and the lusterless eyes are
usually due to constipation. So many
things that women do habitually con-
duce to this trouble. They do not
eat carefully, they eat indigestible
foods because the foods are served
daintily and they do not exercise
enough. But whatever the particular
cause may be 1t is important that the
condition should be corrected.
An ideal remedy for women, and one
especially suited to their delicate re-
quirements, is Dr. Caldwell's Syrup
Pepsin, which thousands of women en-
dorse highly. Mrs Jennie Snedeker,
1O41 West Monroe ST., Chicago, testi-
fies that she is cured of grave stom-
ach and bowel troubles by using Syrup
Pepsin and without the aid of doc
tor or any other medicine" All the
family can use Syrup Pepsin, for thou
sands of mothers give 1t to babies and
children. 1t Is also admirably suited
to the requirements of elderly people.

Midsummer PIantinus,

A good many of the short season
garden products can still be planted.
Onion sets will mature nicely before
frost II planted now, and onion seed
can be planted and harvested as onion
sets ready for planting next year.
Radishes should be planted every two
or three weeks as late as September.
There is no reason why you can
not have steady supply Of radishes
for your table until the frost.
Good late crops of lettuce and spin
ach may be had by planting now.
Although peas will not grow we'll in
the hot weather, a very excellent late
crop may be had by planting the seed
about four inches deep in drills two
feet apart at this time of the year.
This will insure deep roots and hardy
plants.
The general rule for midsummer
planting is to keep the plants well
shaded during the hot part OF the day.
This means, of course, protection from
the sun. as 1t is quite necessary for
the plants to get the morning and
evening sun. II you have no natural
shade in your garden, and do not
want to go to the trouble of building
artificial shade for the midday sun.
still good results can be had by plant
ing your seed quite deeply. Plants
put in at this time of year must be
kept thoroughly watered. and of
course cultivation is an ever-present
necessity.

If We Saw the Beyond.

Now I do not for moment believe
that, If those mysterious portals were
flung wide. and we could see without
hindrance all the secrets of the great
beyond, we should necessarily be eth
er better or happier. On the contrary,
the probability is that, average hu-
man nature being what 1t is. sacred
realities would be degraded to the or
dinary levels of the human intercourse
in this world; in our knowledge of
life we cannot rise above what we
are. What is wanted is a certain
quality of life itself which will carry
with 1t the assurance of the nearness
and sweetness of the best and highest
in the eternal kingdom of love.
