How to Stabt a Balky Hobse.— There 

 are many ways of accomplishing this much 



• desired object. Indeed, as for a human ail- 

 ment, everybody has a different receipt— but 

 the right one. Some advocate the Dutch- 

 man's plan — build a fire under him. This is 

 effectual, as it is calculated to render the ani- 

 mal's nerves steady. Try it by all means, 



■ and if that does not do, pour sand in his cars ; 



■never mind if you do make him deaf for life, — - 

 who wants a balky horse? If the sand trick 

 won't work cast off the tugs and traces, tie his 



'tail fast to the whiffle-tree and start him off. 

 After this dodge he may never sulk again, 

 but the chances are he may be minus a tail ; 

 never mind— who wants a balky horse? If 

 this plan fails stand in front of him and blow 

 in his nostrils. In wonder at the ridiculous 

 appearance of the fool under his nose he may 

 forget the cause of his stubbornness and move 

 •off. If he doesn't let three or four men catch 

 ihim by the head and drag him along. If the 

 last is no go thrash the hide off him. Do not 

 •seek to 'fia& fine cause of his balkiness. Don't 

 look under the collar to see if there is a blis- 

 'ter, or reason whether the load is too heavy 

 ifer him. Give him a curse and a blow instead 

 of a kind word. He is only a dumb brute and 

 it does not matter. Do not, under any con- 

 sideration, give him time to get his wind 

 \when he stops after a hard pull, but lay the 

 •whip on until he is beaten to a standstill. 

 Break his spirit down ; let him know that you 

 are master and tyrant, not master and friend. 

 There is one way some foolish people have 

 of managing a balky horse, and that is to 

 take him out of the shafts, unharness him, 

 walk him up and down a few minutes, then 

 harness again and hitch him up. He will in- 

 variably start right off, and not be apt to re- 

 peat his trick unless imposed upon. Try it.—

Wolf Playing 'Possum. — Reuben Lowry 

 of Walker township, Anderson County, Kan- 

 sas, was out hunting wolves one day during 

 the snow. He got track of a wolf and with 

 his dogs followed to the timber, where he 

 overtook it, and the dogs and the wolf fought 

 in the snow. Uncle Reuben, however, who 

 Was on horseback; managed to put a load of 

 shot into the wolf. An old greyhound laid 

 the wolf out on the snow apparently dead. 

 i Uncle Reuben had strings attached to his sad- 

 dle behind to tie game to, and lashing the 

 carcase of the wolf to the saddle he mounted 



■ for home. All unconscious of any difficulty, 

 ihe awakened suddenly to the fact that the 



• wolf had been playing 'possum and was yi- 



■ ciously snapping and making vigorous efforts 

 to get away from the saddle thongs. Uncle 

 Reuben, of course, could not get off the horse 



■ to kill the wolf, and was in imminent danger 

 of being bitten where he was. He had the 

 ipresence of mind, however, to watch his op- 

 portunity, and grabbed the beast by the neck 

 •in such a manner that it could not bite, and 

 ilic-ld it there until he got home, where his 

 grandson killed it. 



—Near Ashland, Oregon, early one morn- 

 ing recently, a forest of pine trees were seen 

 banding down as though bowed by a terrific 

 gale of wind. At the same time not a breath 

 of air was in motion. During the previous 

 night a furious storm had passed over the for- 

 est, accompanied by rain and snow, and the 

 steady force of the wind had bent the trees 

 and held them in that position until the fall- 

 ing snow and freezing rain had fastened them 

 in unyielding bonds of ice, and so they re- 

 vmained until the sun set them free. 



They That Have Eabs.— The Yonkers 

 Gcuette is responsible for this. Some one 

 ought to take a gun and go hunting around 

 that sanctum : 



"That dog looks more intelligent than his 

 master," said Mrs. Mic, as she and her hus- 

 band passed a huntsman and hound on the 

 roadway. " Evidently," returned C. O., "he 

 is a man of but one idea, while the dog is a 

 creature of two wide-ears, at least."
