BLANKS AND 1'BIZES. Liko a pilgrim of old, I have roauicd to aud fro, Hoard maxims both foo'ish and wise, And ever have found midst the high and the low, There were always two blanks to a prize. A drum in a band always makes the most sound, And a hypocrite makes the most noise, And in every profession the whole world around, There arc twenty-five blanks to a prize. With money to spend wc have friends by the score, To flatter lis, fawn and ndvise, Hut how soon we find, if we chance to be poor, There are sixty-live blanks to a prize. If 4o settle a grievance to law we resort, AVIiat ((nibbles nnd cavils arise, Hut one thing is ccrtaiu, in every court There arc ninety-five blanks to a prize. There arc other things, too, iu a journey through lifo. Which the dullest may see if he tries, Hut the risk is the greatest in choosing a wife, There are ninety-nine blanks to a prize. Cow Music?The cow has at least four tones or lows. First there is her alarmed or distressed low, whet: deprived of her calf or separated from her mates?her low of alfectioa. Then there is her call of hunger, a petition for food, sometimes full of impaticuce, or her answer to the farmer's call, full of eagerness. Then there is that peculiar freuzied bawl she utters on smelliug blood, which causes every member of the herd to lift its head and hasten to the spot ?the native cry of tho clan. Wheu 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 sceuis to be cxpresssve of a kind of unrest and vague longing?the longing of i tic imprisoucu lo tor her lost idcutity.? She sends her voice forth so that every god on Mount Olympus can hear her plaint.? She uiakcs this sound iu the morning, especially in the spriug, as she goes f.>rth to graze. The Marquis of Watorford annoys railroad managers by always riding third-class, as it diminishes their first and second class travel. One day the Marquis appeared at Wuterford 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 liiui in the car. thinking to drive him out. The Marquis surveyed his traveling companion for a moment, and then started lor the ticket office. "Givo me a first class ticket to Dublin,"said lie. They thought they had him, sure, but he 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, and leaving hiui there, returned to his favorite compartment. ? Onk Effect op FIahd Times.?It is a curious nnruiliin-ifw .-.P i>w.n? _l-~ > i -? i v?m...u .*j u? vuusc wiiu icci mc pressing need of economizing that they begin to retrench by net paying their doctors' bills aud by giviug up their pews in church. Many a man who, when tirst attacked by typhoid fever, 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 hit... These old lines are always true: The devil was sick, the devil a monk would be; The devil got well, the devil a monk was he. Cakkd 1>ao in Cow.?(L. It. M.) : Give } pound Kpsoui salts with an ounce of ginger in two quarts of warm gruel, and follow up by a daily dose of j dram iodide of potassium 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 twice a day. If there is little heat or pain when handled, rub the effected quarter daily with a mixture of three ounces compound tiucturo of iodine and six ounces camphorated spirit. If any milk or other liquid forms on the quarter, draw it off'.? jVe/r York Tribune. Thumps in IIohsks.?C. 11., ltiekrcal, Oregon.?I would ask Dr. Puarcn what is the cause of the disease in horses known as the thumps, and what is tho remedy or cure, if there be any. Anstccr.?These so-called thumps in horses arc supposed to be caused from overdriving and oppression, paralyzing the ac^ ccssory nerve. Digitalis is used with success in such eases. It is given in doses of irum ten to thirty grains, daily for fivo or 9ix successive days. All causes of excitement to the animal should be avoided.?iY(t. L. S. Journal. "Jake, whar you get such fine 'broidcrcd shirts as dat you had on at de meeting las' night ?" asked I'ofc, as Jake 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. "You doesn't pear to' preshiate my circumstances, Pete," " I knows dat you ain't yearned '''ijMViHuiiiiiri'r sense I know d ye"! 'prShiates dat," retorted Pete. "You's off do track, Pete, and dar you'll stay till your tnuddcr gits tor be a washer-woman. You hear datl"'* lie was a well-meaning man, but they had been married a long while, and when he playfully asked her what was next to nothing, she sarcastically answered'that at this season of the year she thought his winter flannels were. "Handsome is as handsome does, " said a Chicago man to his will* "Yes," shejreplicd, in a winning tone, "for instance, a husband who is nlwavn roulu tn tii.n/1 money to liis wife.
