TAKING THE HORSES PULSE
Valuable Means Of Assistance in As.
pertaining the Nature and Prog
ress of Disease.

The pulse is due to an automatic ex'
pansion and relaxation in the wall OF
an elastic tube-the artery-caused
by the Jets of blood pumped into these
vessels by means of force pump
the heart.
Each stroke of the heart is equal to
one pulsation, viz: a rising and falling
of the arterial wall
In health the average number of
pulse beats per minute is about SO to
40. The larger the horse, the slower
or fewer the number of beats per min.
ute.
A very good situation to take the
pulse is at the underside of the jaw.
By rolling the tips Of the fingers about
little they can be brought on to the
blood vessel.
Don't press too firmly, nor yet too
lightly. The animal must be kept still
and quiet. In point of Importance, the
character" of the pulse must be the
best guide. That is to say, the blood
vessel may impress us as feeling hard,
soft, full, quick. small, wiry, regular
or irregular.
In pulmonary apoplexy 1t may be
beating 120 times per minute.
When properly taken It forms a
valuable means Of assistance In ascer.
tanning the nature and progress o.
disease.

SILLY TO IUGeLE WITH TRUTH
Man That Recognizes "Hls Word 10
His Bond" IL the One That
Can Be Trusted.

Reliability comes very near to be
ING the cornerstone Of character. At
least, it is an indispensable element.
And reliability is nothing more than
the integrity of ones word. The
man who is cas- good as his word"
is the one you can rely on; the man
who is careless of his word. regard
less Of all other considerations, needs
to be watched. And he is always at
a little disadvantage as compared
with the other fellow.
Men risk a good deal in juggling
with truth. They risk their stand
ing in life. Cleverness in the shad-
ing Of meanings, in coming state
ments susceptible Of a double con-
struction, may be shrewd and cum
ming, but, paradoxically, it is also
dull and stupid. Every mans word
should be as good as his note, better,
because under certain unavoidable
circumstances a man might be rem
dered unable to meet his note, but
he can always keep his word invio-
late.
All Of which, though said before,
will bear repeating many, many
times. One of the best times to re-
peat it is while the character is in
the making, before the cornerstone
is laid or fully settled into its place.
The boy who goes into maturity deep
in the conviction that his word is
his chief asset in life goes with ire
mendous advantage over the other
fellow.-Omaha Bee.

"A Canadian professor speaks of "a
