for their beauty and line finish.
I started Mohcan King in five races last fall
getting a piece of the money every time, and
won the largest purse and best race he started
in, which certainly ought to be a credit to any

The Atlantic Sea Bed.
Proceeding westward from tho Irish
coast the bed deepens very gradually; in
fact for the first 230 miles the gradient is
but six feet to the mile, In tho next 20
miles,however, the fall is over 9,000 feet,
and sj precipitous is the sudden decent
that in many places depths of 1.200 to 1,-
GOO fathoms are encountered in very close
proximity to the 100 fathoms line. With
the depth of 1,800 to 2,000 fathoms the sea
bed in this part of the Atlantic becomes a
slightly undulating plain, whose gradients
are so light that they show but little alter
ation of a depth of 1,200 miles. The ex
traordinary flatness of these submarine
prairies the familiar simile of basin
rather inappropriate. Tho hollow of the
Atlantic is not strictly a basin, whose
depth increases regularly toward the cen
ter; it is rather a saucer or dish-like one.
so even is the contour of its bed.
Tho greatest depth In the Atlantic has
been found somo 100 miles to the north
ward of the island of St. Thomas, where
soundings of 3,875 fathoms were obtained.
The seas around Great Britian can hardly
be regarded as forming part of the Atlan
tic hollow. They are rather a part of the
platform banks of tho European continent
wbich the ocean has overflowed. An ele
vation of the sea bed 100 fathoms would
suffice to lay bare the greatest part of the
North sea and join England to i'enmark.
Holland, Belgium and France. A deep
channel of water would run down the west
coast of Norway, and with this the majori
ty of fiords would be connected. A great
part of the Bay of Biscay would dissapear:
but Spain and Portugal are but little rej
moved from the Atlantic depression. The
100 fathom line approaches very near the
west coast, and soundings of 1.000 fathoms
can be made withim 20 m iles of Cape St.
Vincent, and much greater depths have
been sounded at distances but little great
er than this from the western shores of the
Iberian Peninsula. — Sautical Magazine.

A Word Concerning Glanders.
Glanders is among the worst diseases
which can attack horses, being incurable,
and certainly causing death sooner or lat
er. It also attacks men, with the same re
sult. We notice several cases have devel
oped in horses in Indiana county recently,
and there has been one case in Brookville.
The first indication of the disease is usual
ly a watery discbarge from the horse's left
nostril. Inside of three weeks cup-like ul
cers will form in the nostril, followed by
a discharge of yellowish matter. The
horse will have a congh, and usually a
swelling under the left jaw. He will prob
ably eat a* well as usual, and not fall
away in flesh. At tho very first indication
of the approach of the disease the animal
should be seperated from all others, and
a veterinary surgeon be called to examine
it. No glaudered horse should be permit
ted in a field where other horses are to be
pastured, as the diseased matter will be
left on the grass, to come in contact with
the healthy animals. As soon as the dis
ease is known to be glanders the animal
should be killed without delay. This statb
allows a maximum price of S2O to owners
of glandered and killed. The disease start
ed in London two years ago, last year
reached New York, and is now spreading
through the country. Let every owner of
horses watch it closely. Too much care
cannot be taken. And men should use the
utmost caution to prevent any of the virus
from the diseased animal coming in con
tact witn themselves.

* How to Obtain Long Life,
Take life easy. Nothing prolongs life
like a cheerfuf disposition.
Make haste slowly. The snail outran
the hare and won tho race.
Avoid all worry. Care wrinkles the
brow and dries up the fountain of life.
Don't get angry. Every burst of passion
shortens life's span one inch.
Be moderate in all things and temperate
in your habits. Remember, "sleep is na
ture's kind restorer," and if you would live
long, sleep long.
Above all tako care of yourself. If you
are not feeling well there is something
wrong and nature needs to be stimulated
in her work. The best in the
country recommend Klein's Silver Age
and Duquense Rye for such a purpose.
They are for sale by dealers generally at
$1.50 and $125 per quart respectively. Send

Cured by a Crunching Pig.
St. Louis Globe-Democrat.]
'•The most remarkable thing that has j
ever occurred to me in tnj" earthly career, :
said Eugene MrKclsey, "occurred Dome
year- ago when I was still afflicted with 1
dyspepsia. I had a bad case, I assure j
yon. Oh, I was all broke up. Food was
disgusting. I had no appetite, and I just
walked around looking for some place to j
lay down and die. Some time passed and j
I grew worse, 1 saw myself a physical
wreck, and try as I nrght, I simply could i
not ryvive appetite nor ambition. Finally
I ran into an old womon. a kind of witch,
I guess—old women are always witches
when they dress in faded garments and
predict to you—who said that I would get j
well if I should go to a certain farm and
three times a day ca.-t an ear of corn to a
white pig and then listen to it cat. I do
not believe in such rites, but dear me, I i
was so sick that I was willing to try any- j
thing. So I bought a white pig, secured a
pen lor it within the mentioned farm lim
its, and daily made three journeys with an
e*r of corn that I threw in and then watch
ed the pig eat. Well, do you know, the
sound of that pig crunching and sucking
those corn grains made me hungry. Oh, I
enjoyed the sensation so much. It made
me ravenous When I returned from my
walk I wanted to eat So I continued
visiting the white pig and eating three
good meals a day unt;l I was myself again
and as healthy as lam now. I don't care
to understand the whynes» of it now, I am
only too glad to be well."

Haines 'Golden Specific."
It is manufactured as a powder, which
can be given in a glass of beer, a cup of
coffee or tea.or in food, without the know
ledge of the patient. It is absolutely
harmless, and will affect a permanent and
speedy cure, whether the patient is a mod
erate drinker or an alcoholic wreck. It has
been given in thousands of cases, and in
every instance a perfect cure has followed.
It never fails. The system once impregnat

impossibility for the liquor appetite to ex
ist. Cures guaranteed. 48 page book of
