BLANKS AND i'KlZES. Like n pilgrim of old, I huve roamed to and fro, Heard maxima both too'ish and wise, And ever have found midst the high and till low, There were always two blanks to a prize. A drum in a band always makes the most sound, And .1 hypocrite makes the most noise. And in every profession the whole world around, Tliere arc twenty-five blanks to a prize. With money to spend we have friends by the score, To Hatter its, fawn and advise, Hut how soon we find, if we chance to he poor, There arc sixty five blanks to a prize. If to settle a grievance to law we resort, What <|tiihb!es and cavils arise. J.ut one tiling is certain, in every court There arc ninety-five blanks to a prize. There are other tilings, too, iu ti journey through lit'o, Which the iliillest may sec if lie tries, I tut the risk is the greatest in choosing a wife, There are ninety-nine blanks to a prize. Cow Mt'sic?The cow has at least four tones or lows. First there is Iter alarmed or distressed low, whet: deprived of her calf or separated (rout her mates?her low ol aUeetiuti. Then there is her call of hunger, a petition for food, sometimes full of imp.itieucc, or her ans\\or to the farmer's call, full of eagerness. Then there is that peculiar frenzied bawl she utters on smelling blood, which causes every member of the herd to lift its head and hasten to the spot ?the native cry id' the clan. When she is gored or in great danger she bawls also, but that is different. And lastly, there is that long sonorous volley she lets off on the hills or in the yard, or along the highway, and which seems to be cxpresssve of a kind of unrest and vague longing?the longing of the imprisoned lo for her lost identity.? Flic sends her voice forth so that every god on Mount Olympus eati hear her plaint.? She makes this sound iu the morning, especially in the spring, as she goes I'-rlh to graze. The Manjuis of Waterford annoys railroad managers by always riding third-class, as it diminishes their first and second class travel. One day the Marquis appeared at Waterford station aud bought a third class ticket to Dublin. The railway men thought to teach him a lesson, and for that purpose sat a sweep down beside him in the car. thinking to drive him out. The Marquis surveyed his traveling companion for a moment, and then started for the ticket office. "Givo mo a first class ticket to Dublin,"said lie. They thought they had liiui, sure, but lie simply returned to the thirdclass car, and making the sweep a present of the ticket, escorted him and his brushes to the first class carriage, aud leaving him there, returned to his favorite compartment. O.NK liKl'kct or 11A It I) Tl.mks.? It is a curious peculiarity of those who feel the pressing need of economizing tha* they begin to retrench by n< t paying their doctors' bills and by giving up their pews in church. Many a man who, when first attacked by typhoid lever, is perfectly willing to give anything to be carried safely through, changes his mind when he is on his feet again, and thinks the doctor is trying to swindle him out of a large fee, when there was really nothing the matter with him. These old lines arc always true: The devil was sick, the devil a monk would be; The devil got well, the devil a monk was lie. Cakko 1?.\<i in Cow.?(L. II. M.) : Give 3 pound Epsom salts with an ounce of ginger in two quarts of warm gruel, and follow up by a daily dose of A drain iodide- of tassium and 1 ounce nitrate of potash. If the udder is hot and tender, bathe for an hour at a time with warm water, rubbing on a little alcohol when it is stopped, and repeating this tw^ce a day. If there is little heat or pain when handled, rub the effected quarter daily with a mixture ol'thrce ounces compound tincture of iodine and six ounces camphorated spirit. If any milk or other liquid forms on the quarter, draw it off.? jVr/e York Tribune. Tin;mi's in IIousks.?C. K., lliekreal, Oregon.?T would ask Dr. l'aarcn what is j the cause of the disease in horses known as the thumps, and what is the remedy or cure, j if there be any. _ Instccr.?These so-called thumps in horses are supposed to be caused from overdriving and oppression, paralyzing the acu ccssory nerve. Digitalis is used with success in such cases. It is given in doses of from ten to thirty grains, daily for five or six successive days. All causes of excite* incut to the animal should be avoided.?JVh. J/. tS. Journal. "Jake, wliar you get such fine 'broidered shitts as dat you had on at de meeting las' night ?" asked 1'etc, as .lake stood at the village post office door trying to stick a bent brass pin into the back of his paper collar and fasten that article in position.
