Even had she known whom the vessel brought she would not have been able to guess his object in coming to this country. They went out on deck again to find it cleared of passengers. Another boat was lowered, and they were asked If they wished to go ashore. said Laura. They deCertainly, scended to the rocking boat, and were pulled ashore by eight sturdy oarsmen. A porter came from the boat with her pretty, white bag, which seemed in harmony with the spotless purity which surrounded them. She thanked him and gave him a silver dollar for his- trouble. Then she turned to go with Kate to the hotel, when she suddenly stopped, started back, and, with a cry of alarm, fell Into the arms of Kate Willis. Before her stood Theodore Lackland, a smile on his contemptible features. Kate Willis was dumbfounded at the conduct of her charge. She knew the girl had unexpectedly met some one, and the meeting was highly disagreeable, but could not, of course, understand the true cause. Kate knew the man before her was the cause of the trouble, and at once began to berate him. You unprincipled scoundrel, she cried.

Cure for Spavins. There are two forms of this disease bog and bone spavin, each of which must be treated differently. For bog spavin, take iodine tincture, one ounce; aconite tincture, one ounce; oil of cedar, one ounce; spirits of am monla, one ounce, and chloroform, one ounce. This, when mixed thoroughly, should be used twice a day for three days, then apply a hot bran and vinegar poultice, leaving It on over night. Continue until the swelling is removed, then wash with warm soapsuds, after which apply the tincture of iodine twice a day, leaving the animal at rest until cured. For bone spavin, take quicksilver, two ounces; nitric acid, two ounces; black antimony, two drams; cantharides powder, one dram; sulphuric acid, two ounces, and prepared chalk, two drams. Stir the mixture until cool In a .bowl or mortar. Apply at one hour intervals from five to seven consecutive hours, or three applications may be made at three-hointervals to hasten the reduction.

These troublesome pests of the orchard are lying just around the base of trees under a little loose bark. They are no larger than a thread and from a quarter to half an Inch long. The larger ones are a little farther down imbedded in the holes, eating the life out of the trees. It will require but a day to go over 500 to 1,000 trees, according to the amount of borers In the orchard and a day or two can possibly be spared to attend to this duty by all means. Do not let them remain undisturbed for they will destroy the vitality of the trees if left longer and people will wonder after It is too late why they did not know about all these things sooner.forgetting the while that they might have read this Information right In this paper. Horse Stables. Stables should be located where there Is good natural drainage and be arranged with plenty of light and ventilation. As lumber has become exorbitantly high, many stable floors are now made of concrete. When made of the latter material they need more bedding to prevent the animals from bruising themselves when lying down. Ventilators are arranged to carry off the pungent ammonia odors and also to admit fresh air. Ventilation should be so arranged as to prevent direct drafts on the horses, as they will induce colds, rheumatism and pneumonia. The stall partitions should come down to the floor, otherwise the animals are liable to thrust their legs under the pa. ltlon when In the act of The arising and Injure themselves. mangers should be constructed to slant inward so that the horse will not Injure his knees when feeding.
