Prinzing has contributed a statis- tical study of this subject. According to this study, property rights are more generally respected by the married than the single. The married man does not commit the graver offenses against property, such as robbery andI fraud, so much as the less dangerous‘ cranes, such as receiving stolen goods breaking the laws of trade and public health and bankruptcy. Men who are married at an early age, from 18 to :25, offend against property more of- ’ten than the unmarried of the same age, and married men who are older. i This is probably eXplained by the pres- :sure of family expenses. Offenses against morality, except, of course,‘ i I. s l 1 i c l 1 1 I l l i bigamy, and, for some reason, incest, l are far more'common among unmar- I Eried menâ€"a fact that was to be ex-‘ pected Offenses against human life Eare more frequent among unmarried, : though the amspr0portion is not so great as in matter of the rights of; I property. - . ' A L , I“L"'"d' It is interesting to note that the criminaLity of widowers decreases with advancing years, although this is 'pro- babiy true of all men. “Widowers, however, contribute a greater share of crime between the ages of 30 and 50 than either of the other classes. This may be an argument either for or against marriage, according to the -_.----l “Onâ€"v â€"- â€"_-_ point of View. Widowers are especial- ly prone to murder, incest, false ac- cusation and false witness. They stand in all classes of crime and their offenses against property are note- worthy. In extenuation of widowers it may be claimed that the loss of the wife leads to demoralization, both in mind and in domestic affairs and re- moves an influence that is evidently salutary in the majority of men. Ac- cording to these statistics the longer a man is married the more law-abid- ing he becomes. This may be account- ed for not only by the benign influence of matrimony, but also by the fact that the burden of married life inci- dent to the larger birth rate at that time and the financial straits of the parents is greater in the early years than it is later. This is indicated by the fact that the rate of offenses against property falls off rapidly with advancing years among the married. lie Told An Englishman Why the Boers Shot at Officers. Lieutenant Colonel P. F. Robertson, late of the Ninety-second Gordon, Highlanders, writing to the Times, re-g lates a conversation with Generall Joubert at Newcastle, Natal, in 1881.1 on the day of Majuba. “0h,” replied; General Joubert, "we give special in-E structions to our men always to pick; off your officers.” “Thank you," saidg Colonel Robertson; “why are we toi receive so much attention?” General; Joubert’s reply was: “Your officers' are all rich, and are quite independent of your profession; you can come intoi your army, and leave it when you please; but your privates are poor: men, and they cannot get away when; they please, and they must fight when they are ordered to, and it is how they get their living. Besides, we have no quarrel with them, and we do not want to kill one of them if we can help it.” Oolonel Robertson then told Jou- bert of the promotion of Hector Mac- Donald from the ranks and the.clay- more that the officers of his regiment ' had presented him with.

The General .erested. and said : IRE HORSE’S WONDERFUL POWER '1 OF SMELL. The following shows how very keen indeed must be the horse’s sense Of smell: " The horse will leave musty hay untouched in his bin, however hungry. He will not drink of water Objectionable to his questioning sniff, or from a bucket which some Odor makes Offensive, however thirsty. Bis intell’gent nostril will widen, quiver and query over the daintiest bit Of- ferred by the fairest Of hands, with coaxings that would make a mortal shut his eyes and swallow a nauseus mouthful at a gulp. A maire is nev- er satisfied by either "sight or whinny that her colt is really her own until she has a certified nasal certificate to the fact. A blind horse now living will not allow the approach of any strang- er without showing signs Of anger not safely to be disregirded. The distine- tiOn is evidently mode by his sense Of smell and at a considerable distance. Blind horses, as a rule, will g llop wi ‘dly about a posture without strik- ting the surrounding fence. The sense of smell informs them of its proximityw Others will, when loosened from the stable. g) direct to the gate or bars lopenerl to their accustomsd feeding grounds and when desiring to return, ' after hours Of careless wandering, will distinguish one outlet and patiently await its opening. The Odor Of that particular part Of the fence is their pilot to it. The horse in browsing or while gathering herbage with its lip is glided in its choice Of proper food entirely bv its nostrils. Blind horses do not make mistakes in their diet.” The term " founder ” has been used for centuries. During the hot weather every year there are many cases, often of a serious type, and many of them the result of thoughtfulness. All dur-} ing the heated term‘ an ounce of hypo-’2 sulphate of soda dissolved in half a} bucket of drinking water every nighti will do much to prevent the trouble' when due (:3 re otherwise is exercised. There are degrees in this disease, from the mild. form up to the very acute, when the horse goes down and will not, stand at all. or, through standing up, perspires, freely, breathes laboriously ’and evidences great distress. Such leases as these need a g Md doctor. Or- [dinarily a horse is found stiff the next morning, refusing to come around ‘in his stall. Such cases should be ‘treated in the absence of a doctor, or until he comes, by using from six- !teen to twenty ounces of linseed oil, 'lwith two ounces of sweet spirits of gnitre, as a drench, and the soda he- : fore mentioned in the drinking water. 'when every six hours, or three times é‘dâ€"ay, he'should haée two or three ounces of nitre dissolved in a pint of. cold water as a drench. HOGS FOR RENOVATING OR- CBARDS. Old orchards, with a stiff sod of any kind, am be greatly helped by dis- turbing this sod and stirring the up- per layers of soil. The application of fertilizer, both homemade and commer- cial, is valuable in this work, and if hz-gs are turned in they will assist greatly in mixing the fertilizer and stirring up The soil. After they have rooted over the ground xhoroughly, the Roots of various kinds with apples and meal make one excellent cheap hog food. Pumpkins may be added, or pumpkins, meal and apples may be used. If no roots are at hand, boiled pumpkins and meal are excellent and h( gs will thrive upon them. One im- portant item. is to see that your hogs have a good warm place to sleep in.

It will pay to try this if you have a nice lot of fresh eggs that by accident or otherwise, have become stained, for a dirty egg is distaste- ful, even if the egg is all right inside. The sight of it outside is obnoxious to the delicacy of one’s taste. SOWING REDTOP. The best time to sow redtop seed is in the spring on winter grain or on ground specially prepared for the pur- pose. Like timothy, it can be seeded in the fall at the time w: nter grain is put in, but most farmers prefer spring seeding. The British Soldiers In South Africa Has a “gm-one Appetl e. 1 No longer is the work of feeding1 the British troops intrusted, as in the dark days of the. Crimean War, to pri- vate contractors. And so, when. afew weeks ag.), the. bulk of the Army Ser- vice Corps was ordered out to South Africa, “ those in the know,” at once asserted, and rightly. that an army corps would follow. For to the Army Service Corps is committed the work of foraging for Tommy Atkins. If cav- akry are the “ eyes ” of an army, it may safely be said that the Army Ser- ;v.ice Corps is its stomach. During his period of service asol-i diet is cut tled to three-quarters of a “pound of fresh meat and one pound of bread daily;a and when on active service the meat is increased to one pound, and a free ration of groceries and vegetables is also issued. Reports have appeared of vast quantities of corned beef and other tinned provi- sions being ordered from Chicago and other food centres, for it should not be forgotten that rinderpest has caus- ed the partial, and in some places total, destruction of African herds and flocks. Hence our army corps cannot be wholiy fed on fresh meat. - 1 1- w â€"Vâ€"â€"J â€"vâ€" ._ The average bullock, when slaugh- tered and cut up by the army butch- ers, will yield 700 pounds of meat,and 1,343 bullocks must die to provide our troops with one day’s rations. Sup- posing that the operations in the field occupy six months, and the soldiers get fresh meat twice a week, then in round numbers, 70.000 bullocks must be sacrificed. ' This fresh meat must be eked out with no less than 10,400,000 pounds of salted or preserved victuals, and we get a grand total of 14,500,000 pounds, or 6,530 tons, of bullock! The army eats up 80,000 pounds of bread daily, and bread contains aquar- ter of its weight in flour. In twenty- six weeks it will require 3,610,000 pounds of flour, or 65,000 bushels. _, ._ ---L..L NT“ law governing thg ‘colt’s action. ‘I .U'I’VVV wâ€"~â€"â€"-_~_ yuuuua U1.

Add to that $65,000 for our army’s daily bread, and a further $1,060,030 for vegetables and groceries, calculated at the rate of sev- en cents per diem per man, and the army corps will eat up $2,750,000 in six months!

N O REGRETS. came Sonny, with air and a blatant Some Great Men Who Are Early Risers. Although there is no necessary con. nection between early rising and a brilliant career it is an interesting fact that many of our most eminent men and ‘women spend less time in their beds and leave them much earlier than most of us, says London Tit- lBits. Through the whole of his work- {ing life, the late President Faure, was rarely, if ever. in bed after So’clock in the morning. Even when President ‘he invariably rose at 5 o’clock, even in the depth of winter; had a cold bath, and was immersed in his books in his library at 6 o’clock. To this hab- git of early rising the “tanner Presi- ident” attributed much of his success I in life. i M. Jules Verne is another practica; believer in the virtues :of rising early. His practice is to rise at dawn in sum- mer and at 6 in winter. After a light breakfast, he takes up his pen. and writes industriously until 11 o’clock‘ when his day’s work is complete, and he can devote himself to recreation. “ If I had not been an early riser," he says, “I should never have writ- ten more books than I have lived years.” Alexander von Humboldt, the great German philosopher and traveler, rare- ly spent more than .four hours in bed, and, on the testimony of Sir James Sawyer, was frequently content with two hours; and Littre, who lived to be 80, thought that to spend more than five hours a day in bed was shameful self-indulgence. Although his invari- able hour of rising was 8 o’clock, he scarcely ever left his desk until 3in the morning, or until sunrise warned him that , A NEW DAY HAD AWNED. i There are few earlier risers than the i kings and queens of Europe, who might 7 pardonable indulge in later hours than their subjects. In his younger days the Austrian Emperor used to rise at [4.39 in summer and 5 o’clock in win« I. ter, and was paying his morning visit to the stables when nearly all Vienna was sleeping. I The German Emperor has never been a sluggard and is usually hard at work in his study at50’clock and on horse- ack at 6 while the Empress shares :her husband’s love of the morning hours, and may be seen cantering on her favorite mare two hours beforc ,the world breaks its fast. " King Oscar of Sweden and Norway gis usually to be found among his be- ,.loved books between 6 ando7 every morning, and the Kings of Italy and 'fl Roumania have also left ’their beds a‘ x this hour. The young Queen of Holland, like he: 2mother, rises at 7; and at about thc gsame hour the QueemRegent of Spain 'may be seen, in somber black, “fat iand florid,” on her way to mass. Many of England’s greatest men have scorned the delights of bed while living “ laborious days.” Brunel, the great engineer, who lived to be 80. rarely spent more than four hours in bed at any time of his crowded life; and Sir William Arrol, the engineer of the Tay and Fourth bridges and the ”Brunel" of our day, rises ear- lier than any of his employes: and would frequently crowd twenty hours work into one day during the pro- gress of his great enterprises. Art, too, has its early risers, am- ong its most eminent men. MR. G. F. W'ATTS, the great academician, has rarely al- lowed his bed to keep him away from his brushes later than 5 o’clock in the morning. and had put in many hours of hard work when ’the breakfast bell rang. Mr. Sidr‘ey Coep-er, the doyen 01 the world’s artists, who is now in his 96th year, has always been an early riser, and has often been busy with his palette at 3 0(1' 4 o’clock in the morning. “ Sir Richard Webster rarely allows himself more than four 'or five hours sleep, and often has to content him- self with less. He has frequently re- tired to bed at 2 or 3 o‘clock in the morning, and has been - rmding his day’s briefs at 5 o’clock; and yet hc is one of the most vigorous and ro- bust men in England. For many. year: Lord Russell did not average five hours’ sleep a night; ‘and the same story is told of Sir Edward Clarke. and the late Lord Herschel] in their bus) days at the bar. ~ _ Lérd ’Wolseley, like Von Moltke and Bismarck, is a oelieqer in early hours and is often at work in his study at 6 o’clock in the morning; but perhiaps no eminent man of our time spend: more hours out of bed than Mr. Edi- son the “ W17arrd of America.” It is no unusual thing for Edison to work thirty-six hours continuously ata sin- gle problem, and on many orcasione he has spent awhole week “ in his clothes,” snatching a few minutes sleep when exhausted nature proved too strong for him.
