The Horse.
SOMETHING ABOUT HIS STRUCTURE
The London Magazine of Art says :
His nature is eminently courageous .
without ferocity, generous, docile, iutelli
gent, and, if allowed to be so, almost a s
affectionate as the dog In his structure,
the ruling characteristic may be said in
one word to consist in obliquity—all the
leading bones in his frame are set oblique
ly, or nearly so, and not at right angles.
His head is set on with a subtle curve of
the last few vertebrae of the neck, which
at the shoulders, take another curve, form•
ing the tail. His shoulders slope back
more than those of other quadrupeds, the
scapula, or a shoulder blade, being oblique
to the humerus, which in its turn, is
oblique to the radius or upper part of the
foreleg So, again in the hindquarters.
the haunch is set obliquely to the true
thigh, Cie thigh of the stifle joint to the
upper bone of the hind leg, which at the
hock makes another angle. The fore and
hind quarters form so large a portion of
the entire length that a horse, though a
lengthly animal from the front of the
chest't.o the back of . the haunch, is com
paratively very short in the back, or actual
"saddle back." Then his hocks are much
bent, and his pastern joints are rather
long, and again are set at an angle, suc
ceeded by a slightly different angle in the
firm but expanding hoof, thus completing
the beautiful meehanicisrn which preserves
the limbs from jar, and insures elasticity
in every tart of an animal destined to
carry weight and to undergo rapid and
continual exertion—a combination not
existin4in any other quadruped to anything
like the same degree, and fitting him pre
cisely for the purposes for whk'h he was
given to man.
At present we have said nothing about
his head, every part of which is equally
characteristic. His well-shaped, delicate
ears are capable of being moved separately
in every direction, and every movement is
full of meaning and in sympathy with the
eye. The eye is prominent, full and large,
and placed laterally, so that be can see be
hilt") 4i without turning his head, his
prindipar weapon of de
fertitil Itia tinstrils ere large, open and
flexible, and his lips fleshy, though thin,
and exquisitely mobile and sensitive. The
large open nostril is essential to him, as a
horse breathes solely and entirely through
it, being physically incapable of breathing
through his mouth, as a valve in the
throat . aitnally precludes him from so
doing; henoe the mouth of a horse, with
out a bridle in it, is opened only for pur
poses of eating and biting, but never from
excitement or from exhaustion like that of
most other quadrupeds except the deer
species. The lips are, perhaps, even more
characteristic; they are his hands as well
as part of his mouth, and the horse, and
others of the family alone use them in this
way. The ox, the sheep, the goat, the
deer, the giraffe above all, and in fact, we
believe all graminivorous animals except
tile horse, either bite their food directly
with the teeth, or grasp and gather it with
the tongue, which is prehensile, and gifted
with more or less power of prolongation ;
but the horse's tongue has no such func
tion, and therefore, no such power, as these
services are aH performed in his case by
the lips; and no horseman, who has let
a favorite pick up small articles of food
fram-thepalm alai. hand, can have failed
to be struck with the exterme mobility, and
also the sensibility and delicacy of touch,
with which the lips are endowed.
Good Living for Farmers.
If there is any class of people that ought
to live tell it is the farmers. They are
sapplied with a great variety of food, and
among the numerous products of the farm
and. 112 garden are many articles that
regarded as the choicest luxuries
by OW:people—luxuries because of their
freshness and purity Such milk and
cream as the farmer has, money cannot
blip in 'our cities. Eggs, fresh laid, are
not to be bad there. Vegetables fresh
from the soil, chickens as choice and as fat
as you please. These are among the gen
erally supplied and choice products of the
farm Which should aid in making the
farmer's table an attractive one.
The staple articles of diet are, of course,
bread, potatoes, and meat of various kinds.
But these articles can be made so good
that none will tire of them, and cooked is
such a variety of ways as to always render
them inviting and palatable. Some pee
pie have an idea that good living necessar
ily means expensive living, and that thy;
farmer can afford only plain food plainly
served, which generally means properly
cooked. What a poor, slovenly cook
wastes in providing for an average farmer's
family, would go ar in the hands of an in
telligent, careful and economical cook, to
ward feeding such a family. One of the
greatest shortcomings in our country to
day is in the vast amount of careless and
unintelligent cooking. Farmers are to
king lessons in agriculture. They are stu
dyiug sod inveligatimg the many questions
which are continually - arising in their old
but always new business of tilling the soil.
Their wives and daughters have need of
thought, of study and - earnest investiga
tion into the economic principles of cook
ing.
Of course, there are very many accom
plished housekeepers and excellent cooks,
as there are model farmers, but the best
are those who generally can and will profit
most by study, experiment and the sugges
tions of others. The wise are never too
wise to learn, but the foolish are wise in
their own conceit. The best farmers, as
so. the ones who take the agricul
t *ION who are the supporters of our
tlitiO, grangers' and agricultural
that are dowg so •mueh good.
So the hest cooks are the ones who are
able to make good use of cook books, care
fully selected recipes, and who take an in
terest in everything that tends to increase
their knowledge and proficiency.
Economy in living expenses is becoming
an important consideration with our peo
plO, but economy does not require that we
live all the time on one or two kinds of
food served .always in the same way. It
requires that more intelligent care be giv
en to - riird the selection of articles of food,
having regard for the relation of value and
cost, and that they be not wasted, and that
the greatest good may be derived from
them.—Husbandman.

0 Master lef me walk with Thee
In lowly paths of aervice free ;
Tell me Thy secret ; help me hear
The strain of toil, the fret of care:
Help me the slow of heart to move
Be some clear winning word of love;
Teach cue the wayward feet to Olaf',
And guide them in the homeward way
0 Master, let me walk with Thee
lefore the taunting Pharisee;
Help me to bear the sting of spite,
The hate of men who hide Thy light,
The sore distrust of souls sincere
Who cannot read Thy judgments clear,
The dullness of the multitude
Who dimly guess that Thou art good.
Teach me Thy patience; still with Thee
In closer, dearer company,
In work that keeps faith sweet and strong,
In trust that triumphs over wrong,
In hope that sends a shining ray
Far down the Future's broadening way,
In peace that only Thou canst give,
With Thee, 0 Master, let me live!
—Sunday Afternoon for Mar, I.
Thankless Ingratitude.
Lutheran and Missionary.]
Thankless ingratitude is a great moral
ugliness and sin ; and it is one of tlie most
pervading deformities and griefs of our
times. S. lfishness is so much the ruling
principle with everbody that we cannot
wonder that God should break in with ibis
afflictive judgments. Everything now-a
days is seized and appropriated as a mat
ter of course. People act on the assump
tion that the world owes them a living,
just as the; may fancy, and feel, when
they get prosp 1.4, as if they had hardly
got their rightful dues. Nobody is to be
thanked, and no tbligations are felt, for
anything. Parents lavish their love and
earnings on their children, and do for them
with untiring patience and forbearance in
sickness and in health, and it is all taken
as a matter of course, scarcely a thought of
real gratitude being felt for it, but in place
of this rather harshness, disobedience and
even cursing. A word of misunderstand
ing is apt to be enough to dissolve forever
the longest and most valuable friendships,
and is held sufficient to counterbalance all
the benefits and loving favors of half a life
time. It is almost the common law that
one has only to put himself to the pains to
advance a friend in order to have him
avoid you, speak ill of you, and treat you
as if you were the object of his just dis
like. And especially toward the dear God
above us, from whom we have all things,
and toward His faithful servants who have
worn out their lives amid straits and pri
vations in serving their flocks there is the
strangest obliviousness to the bonds and
claims of gratitude Hell itself can hard
ly be less feeling in these respect than
some men's hearts.
Spiritual Mindedness.
True faith and right spiritual-minded
ness do not unfit us for the plainest duties
of life. There are things we must do, and
to do them we must think of them, and
thought is often care. True faith does
not teach carelessness A man has not
become extraordinarily pious when he does
not care how his business goes, and what
people think of him A woman does not
deserve canonizing when she is so taken
up with her prayers and her religious con
v,rsati,n that her children go unwashed
and uric ,mbed, and she does not care for
it. The care of earnest thoughtfulness,
with intent to do right is not degrading,
nor weakening. No man should wish to
be rid of it. It is the care that distracts
that pulls one's wind many ways. that dis
turbs and distresses and perrlexes, which
a wise man would desire to avoid, so that
he may have all his power to devote to
caring for those things which are of real
importance, and the caring for which will
do some good That comes to a man more
and more, as he -more and more makes real
to himself that the Lord stands by him,
nigh, "at hand" to observe and to help
him.
To believe that the Lord is at my hand,
and at the hand of the men whom I most
fear or most love, influencing them ,and
me, connecting all business and acts, work
ing together with men for grand results,
which are to affect society a thousand years
to come, what an antidote to fretful care
fulness is this! When you have striven
to train your child as an heir of immortal
ity, with what freedom from care you can
hand him over to the Lord. When you
have been diligent in business all day, neg
leering nothing, hurrying nothing, acting
as an agent for the Lord, leaving all your
h ioks and transactions to his inspection
and protection ; when you have had intel
ligent, faithful, trustful carefulness all day,
how free from fretting care you seem to be
at night ! When I have prepared my sermon
for you, thinking carefully, reading dis
erectly, earnestly striving to find what is
in the mind of the Spirit in the Word of
God, and then have de4ivered the sermon,
how free I should be from distraction of
spirit, for was not the Lord near me in the
study, and "at hand" in the pulpit ? To be
wisely spiritually minded is to be serenely
lofty —Rev. Dr. Deems in Frank Leslie's
Sunday Magazine.
A Sick Senator.
The excessive corpulency of a certain
United States Senator has long been the
butt of editorial wit and spicy bon mots
from the pens of Washington correspond
cots Few persons have suspected that
his obesity "was a disease, and liable to
prove fatal. Yet this is the sad fact. Ex
cessive fatnes3 it not only a disease in it
self, but one liable to generate other and
more serious ones. Chemistry has at last
revealed a safe, sure, and reliable remedy
for this abnormal condition of the system
in Allan's Anti-Fat. Distinguished chem
ists have pronounced it not only harmless
but very beneficial to the system, while
remedying the diseased condition. Sold
by druggists.
OVER the porch of the Old South
Church at Boston is chiselled : "Behold
I have set before you an open door," and
under, on the door, is printed in emphatic
letters, "positively no admittance."
IT is a good rule never to forget the
kindly deeds which others do to you, and
never to remember those you do for them.
