How'the Germans Provide for Safe ty fn' the Streets. - Owing to the rapid increase in mileage of streets paved with asphalt and wood blocks and to the ongestion of traffic in the large cities, it was found necessary to afford greater safety for horses, to prevent their slipping and to enable 'them to come to a quick stop. This has been attained by fitting them with "rope" horseshoes. These shoes were first manufactured some 25 years ago, but it is only during the last decade that the industry has grown to large proportions. Various forms and shapes of |b shoes are used. Some are open at the back, like an ordinary horse- shoe. Others are closed ; and often, | T besides being closed there is a bridge or crosspiece joining the two sides. When this is the case the bridge is constructed like the rest of the shoe, inclosing a tarred rope. There are usually eight nail holes in each shoe ; and in order to strength- en the bottom, and especially to make the nail holes more secure, '00Ve are eome- ] r y braces. The space in the centre of the shoe is often covered over with various kinds of inserts to protect the frog from injury. The latest novelty, which has been adopted by the Roy- al stables, is the insertion at the back of the shoe of a block of wood into which stiff bristles have been driven. This is an additional pre- ventive again slipping. When the ground is covered with snow a spe- cial ice plate is inserted in its stead. - : It is customary to use special nails with long heads in attaching the dhoes to the hoof. When the long-headed nails' are used, it is possible to drive them in and to ex- tract them without taking out the rope. These 'nails, ich are driven between the outer side of the groove and the tarred rope, also help to hold in the rope. The tarred rope wears down simultaneously with the rest of the shoe, and it is only on rare occasions that the rope must be withdrawn and new insert ed. This change can be made with- out removing the shoe. The aver- age life of 'a rope horseshoe is six to eight weeks. The advantages and disadvan- tages of the rope shoes can be sum- marized as fo +--Advantages-- They are light 'and comfortable for the horse; they help to prevent slipping ; they break the concussion and deaden the sound of the hoop. Disadvantages--The driving of the nails requires more care ; the black- smith must have in stock a larger quantity of shoes of various shapes and gizes. Great care has to be taken in the: preparation of rope horse shoes not fo-overheat the iron nor $0 hammer it when too cold, otherwise it will crack ons the an- vil, In addition to the plain tarred rope. horseshoes there are shoes in which Sore interwoven: with wire, ) rubber, copper, wirework, ; eto., is used. These are bvier, somewhat more expensive, Jess practical than the plain shoes, and therefore have not well lished. nmin WOMEN SMOKING. ing. is 0} . DR.

The owners, officers, and crew of any ship that rescues another at sea from a perilous position are en- titled by law to receive salvage money for doing so. All European nations observe this law. The amount of salv money re- ceived for rescuing a disabled ship depends partly upen the value of the rescued ship's cargo, and partly on the extent of the risks run by the rescuers in salving the disabled vessel. \ As a general rule, a fifth of the value of the cargo is paid by the owners of the rescued ship, but from time to time as much as half the value of the salved cargo has een paid. Bome years ago it fell to the lot of a little Bristol tramp named the the eacher, to rescue, at great risk to herself and her crew, a Russian liner, which had broken her pro- peller when within ten miles of Manukau Bar, on the West Coast of New Zealand. The Russian ship was in a most perilious position when the Teacher came to her res- cue; she was drifting on to the dan- gerous bar, and would certainly have been wrecked but for the time- ly arrival of the Teacher, which took her in tow and brought her safely to port, where she was able to get fitted with a new propeller. The Russian ship had $300,000 in specie on board. The Teacher's captain--who was also her owner-- demanded $150,000 for salving this valuable cargo, and, after some litigation in the Russian courts, he was awarded $75,000. Under the award each of the crew, of whom there were six, took $3,500 of the sum allowed. This was one of the biggest hauls ever taken in the way of salvage money. Another big haul was made by a small Spanish tramp. She rescued an English cattle-ship named the Barking, which had on board some tons of cable wires, and became dis- abled in mid-ocean through the smashing of her steering-gear. The Spanish tramp towed the Barking into Southampton; the owners of the La Manta subsequently sent in a little bill for $25,000 to the own- ers of the Barking, which was paid. Each of the crew received $500. Bometimes the captain of a rescu- ing steamer goes to the rescue of a disabled ship to make a bargain with the captain of the latter that a certain sum will be paid him--or his owner--in the way of salvage money, and a much bigger sum is sometimes secured in this way by a rescuing ship than would be awarded her owners, officers, and crew in court; but, on the other hand, if an agreement of this sort is entered into, the circumstances in which the captain of the disabled ship has no choice but to accept it may be set aside if the matter comes into court. This was done some years ago, when the captain of a German steamer demanded $20,000 from the captain of an English "steamer, named _the Eagle. which had grou; on a reef near Aden, in the Red Bea. The Eagle had been on the reef for three days, and it was certain that, if she remained there another day, she would be- coms a total wreck. She was carry- ing silver specie to the value of $50,000, which fact, when it known to he oa tain of the Gorman steamer, m him deman big "of $20,000 for getting the Eagle off the reef and towing her to > ; ensued over the ristter yand the German half the of fied social position, hig parent grief brought him in A Tarent § to the feet of Jesus. | 28. My. little daughter--Accord- ing to Luke 8. 42, an only daugh- ter. At the point of death--Luke re- cords that she "was dying." 24. Thronged him--Crowded close about him. The narrative is Emterrupted at this point by the incident of the healing of the wo with an is- sue of blood, verses to 34. Al- though Jairus's case was urgent, Jesus took time to honor the faith of the woman 'who touched his garment, However, the interrup- tion has the literary value of sus- taining and ointensifying the inter est in the main narrative. 35. While he yet spake--To the woman who touched his garment. Why troublest thou ?--This may represent a subtle effort on the part of Jairus's aristocratic friends to have nothing further to do with the Galilaean peasant. It is more likely, however, that the question was the result of their belief that the child was past restoration and further solicitation would cause Jesus useless trouble. 36. Not heeding the word--Or, overhearing. Jesus overheard what was not addressed to him and paid no attention to it. Fear not, only believe--An exhor- tation to steady, unwavering faith in the face of the aparently greater difficulty. Here, as in many other places, faith is represented as the condition upon which the miracle is to be effected. In other instanc- es, such as the healing of the wo- man with an issue of blood (verses 25-34), the condition of the healing is personal faith. In this instance it is substantial faith. The child is dead, so that she has no power to believe, but the father's faith is ac- cepted as sufficient ground for re- storation of her life. 37. Peter, and James, and John --Jesus's "inner circle" of friends who were with him at the trans- figuration (Mark 9. 2) and in Geth- semane (14. 33). Only the three dis- ciples were taken, that the strictest secrecy might be maintained con- cerning this unusual miracle. It had been the habit of Jesus on numerous occasions to enjoin sec- recy in regard to his miracles, his object being to avoid as much as possible the unwelcome notoriety which they produced. Yet he de- sired that some of the disciples should have the benefit of such a lesson. 88. Weeping and wailing greatly --The lamentation of hired mourn- ers, the number and commotion of which had increased to meet the requirements of the family's social standing. 39. Not dead, but sleepeth--Sleep was a common symbol of death. The statement did not in any sense de- tract from the reality of death. Jesus uttered it in the conscious- ness that he would raise the child to life again. 40. Laughed him to scorn--The conduct of the hired mourners, who knew the girl to be dead. Put them all forth--Except the five mentioned. 41. Talitha cumi--The actual Ara- maic words which Jesus spoke, meaning 'Maiden, atise.". . Re- corded only by Mark, 42. Btraightway--The return to life was effected instantly, 43. No man should know ~; 'report of such a miracle woul increase the populasity of EE
