The Arab Horse. Tte controversy about the relative j talueof the Arab horse has al most as long, Ser.-!r, and to as little T,irr.w Aii that between Nominalist and Rfalrrs. However, amid the 3ut f. r ,..t..., ,,, i, ...is tbt l! e F-6 tt"r oughbrecis now extant, either in Engincd j or in ibis country, trace cacs nithont except"11 to xe Arau 5ire lat were imported to England in the eigh teenth century. Arab blood, therefore, was the foundation of all that is excel lent in the modern horse. On the other hand, it is equally be yond dispute that no Arab hore can trot as fASt or run as tist as the best trotters or runners of Amerka and Kngland. The Orloff bones of Russia can probably oot-trot the Arabian horses, and an Eng lish race hcrse of the third class is doubt lea a match at running for the fastest Arab in the desert. It is true, also, that the Arab horses are inferior in size, sel dom exceeding Hi hamls. But in other rospecu the Arabs have vry grt-at ex cellence. They are un-iutsoionabiy more sound than other breed of horses now fitinL SDavins. curbs, ringbone and other defects being almost if not quiteJ unknown among them. No less superior is their endurance. When it comes to traveling for a whole dav.tbey wiil go faster and further than any thoroughbred. It is needless to say also that few thoroughbreds e-joai them inlauty, breeding far excessive speed having had a tendency to substitute the angular lines that are associated with a thoroughbred, in place of those beauti ful curved lines in which the courser of the desert is mouldtrd. Moreover al though the Arab be small, his weight carryiisg power is by no means small. In fact, in the moving parts, the Arab is not small but large. He is almost always what is known in horse parlance as "a big, little un and his gaits are so clastic and springy ato make him pecu larily fit for the saddle. Such is the Arab horse, and yet al though we imjiort horses by the hundred from England r.ni France, we bring al most none from Arabia. There is, how ever, just one pure-bred Arab colt in this country, the property of Mr. Randolph Huntington, of Rochester, ". Y- who has been known for many years as an enthusiastic defender of Arabian and Clay horses. This colt, Anazeh, had for its dam Naomi, an Arab mare imported to England and thence to this country. Its sire was either Leopard or Linden Tree we forget which these two Weing the Arab stallions given to Cen. Grant by the Sultan. Anaieh forms part of the stud now owned by the "Arab, Anglo-Arab and Clay Stock Farm of Cold Spring Harbor, Long Island." This es tablishment belong! to a stock company organized by Mr. Huntington, and its operation m ill be watched with interest by all intelligent and unprejudiced horse men. Its aim is the ambitious one of creating a national horse founded upon Clay blood, reinforced by Arab blood. The Clay family traces to imported Grand Bashaw, and its value in a trot ting pedigree, though at one time abso lutelv denied and afterwards Rtror.elv contested, is now universally admitted. The success of the California trotting sires, Clay Filot, the Moor, Sultan and Electioneer, and of the no less famous George ilkes, has fully established the value of the Clay strain. How Some Accidents Occur. The frequency with which some un loaded guns are discharged with fatal re sults is suggestive of the suspicion that wme of the alleged deplorable accidents are the result of deep design. These peculiar accidents reminds one of a conversation that occurred between two negroes. "What has yer dropped in dat paper?" "Iat's a pistil ; one of dis heah pistils what's easy on de trier, what cocks hitselfaud shoots h itself off." "Whaffor does yer want a pistil ? Can't yer 'fend yerself wid a knife ?" The other negro, who was a very hard case, snut one eye, and with a smile that was calculated t produce a shudder, re plied: "When pistil goes off and kills man yer kin make folks believe it went of by akerdent, but ef you 6ay a knife killed man akerdentally some folks will shore Lav doubts." An Eye for Beauty. If ever a man likes to have pretty woman near him, it is when he is sick. When young man decided to go to a hospital, his greatest inducement was the hope of having one of the young and beautiful nurses he had read about in books minister to him. He imagined a eweet creature, tender and hopeful, bend ing over him, her charms enhanced by bewitching cap and apron. W hen the doctor called the following day he flund his patient restless disturb ed. The hospital seemed to have no charm for him. " Homesick, eh T' asked the doctor, as be felt his pulse. "Oh, no." " What is the trouble, then ?" " Doctor," said the young man faintly, "it's the nurse." " Oh, I see. Too rigorous. But you know that is for your own good." " It isn't that ; I expected she would be young and beautiful, but she's old enough to bi my grandmother, and as homely as a hedge fence." " All the better, said the doctor ; " yon won't fall in love w ith her." But the homely nurse scored success. A the weeks rolled on she waited upon the patient so kindly nd her service was bo faithful that he outgrew the desire for the pretty face. Another proof of the proverb, " Hand some is that handsome does," Detroit Fret Vn. Hindoo Women. Hindoo women wear very beautiful, and when wealthy, tery costly jewelry. They wear large ring in the nose, quite number on each ear, and ever so many bangle on the arms and wrists, also massive gold and silver nklets and rings on each toe. These rich ornament are ery becoming, and the women naturally think a gret deal of them. But wid ow are not Allowed ny ornaments at all, nor must they wear colors. The condition of women with living husbands, is not much better. They must never look opon the face of any other man, to that they are not allowed t? leave their homes, and these homes, even among the rich, re not pretty in the least. The small, dingy rooms have bare walls and scarcely any furniture, and look npou dreary interior yards without a ves tige of tree or flower. A God-send is Ely' Cream Balm.

He was taking a pleasure trip through this couvr. and was unuvd to the ways of its citizens, which may explain his .-t;.v He met friend on the street. showed him a card and lifted hia to go , with him bi the addrew on it. ! "What's the matter?" the friend. ' -Why, this g.-(itie iiari," explained the f.rc i-oer, helped me out of veiy em barrso;n position. Yoa see, through j carelessness I got caught on a street car witanothiiig but draft in my pocket and he paid my fare, I insisted on hav ing his card, and now I'm going around to thank him agxin and pay him the money." "The nickel ?" "Certainly." "lon't do it." "But I owe it to him." "It makes no difference ; he'll be an gry" And he was. He said the stranger must have thoucht him mighty hard up or close-fisted to come chasing after him with a nickel, and heimdignantiy refused to take it. "But, sir," said the stranger with sur prise "I owe it to yoa. I don't wish to have other people ptying my street car fare." "Offer him cigar," whispered th friend. The foreigner promptly followed in structions. "Will you join me in a smoke, then?" he asked, putting away the nickel and and taking out handsome cigar case. "Whv. thank vou." was the reply, and in a few moments the three were smok ing. "Ask him to have something," sugist ed the friend a&in. Again the foreigner followed instruc tions, and they promptly adjourned to a place where something could be had. Here each inan felt it incumbent upon him to buy a "round." Then the for eigner and his friend started for the ho tel, and the former remarked after some thought : "Queer ways you have here." ' How?" asked the friend. "Why, he was too proud to accept five cents that was due him, bat he would take cigar and drink that were not. And because he did me a favor I had to take three drinks that I did not want and smoke a cigar that I was saving for after dinner. If I paid my car fare regu larly that way I'd be drunk and broke all the time." Ll.iwj'j Tr',l.u:,r. How's This?

There are a great many blood purifiers advertised, but only ibe "Golden Medical Discovery" of Dr. Pierce could sustain itself and be sold under such trying conditions.
