Mr. Richards made himself no fguainted with the modern .importa tion previous to 1851 by visiting En gland, France and Spain and inspect ing the best Arabian horses in .those countries. He then went to Morocco, through Algeria to Tunis, thence to Egypt, and from Egypt through Ara bia Petra and the desert east of .Da mascus as far as Palmyra. During this tour Mr. Richards pur chased Mokhladi, a gray stallion bred by the Tarabine tribe of Bedouins iu Arabia Petra.

More than encouraged by the result ot his first journey, Mr. Richards be- I gan preparing for another trip to the •I East. He believed as Layard wrote: I doubt whether any Arab of the best blood has ever been brought to England. The difficulty of obtaining them is so great that they are scarcely ever seen beyond the limits of the desert.” - After two years spent iu maturing his plans, Mr. Richards started tor the desert, accompanied by Mr. E li ward Troye, the artist, Mr H.

Shortly after their arrival in Spain the Syrian died. Mr. Keene then began to study the lanjnngo in order to carry out Mr. Richards 1 plans among the Bedouins. He re that a horse '.‘ever ran a mile a min ute, he is of the opinion that Eclipse and Flying Childers had the best Arab blood in them, and would rush through a pack of our fastest fly ers. During t‘ e May races in Kentucky this year Mr. Richards saw one of his horses win in one of the liest events. He had sold the horse to a man in an other State years before. Not a dol lar had been paid for the horse, and, according to the interstate laws, he could not touch his own property. This was an illustration of similar transactions in blooded horses. Mr. Richards points to Limestone, a fine stallion in Blue Grass Park, ns carrying out his idea of tho successful efforts of the cross with modem Arab blood. Limestone was foaled in the spring of 1870. Ho is by War Dance, dam Trgnsylvania, by imp. Arab Massoud. He .is a magnificent chest nut, sixteen hands high. His official racing {record shows that ho won twenty races as a four year old, heat ing some of the best horses in Ameri ca, not only on the flat, but as a hurdle jumper, carrying the heaviest weights. Mr. Richards also gives numerous instances where the above cross has shown very great speed and endu rance, as compared with soinu of {the best American and Engli li blood in training at Blue Grass Park; but as these trials were of a private nature they .go fur nothing with practical turfmen and breeders. Since tho war Mr. Richards has bred principally from tho most fash ionable English and American horses. H./lms some Arab mares of the purest breed, which he keeps for his own stock. “Some day,” he said, “they may become known to the public.” The beauties of Bine Grass Park FURNISHING HODS,|*JSSK^tisaasacui i-s-aSa-i*"* At the Store formerly occupied by 3Dr R- ZJL.

And this thin-chceked, pink-eyed woman had beea called a beauty only seven years before 1 And when she gn’-e her hand to Newton Streeter she could say what few girls can, “I married my first love.” Judge Streeter, the fathnj, was sups posed lo be wealthy.

The small dwellingcontained hut three sleeping apartments, and this fact, added their uncertain income, induced Mrs. gtreeter to take upon herself the entire cate of the household. Two children had come in the seven years to nestle in her bosom. But one a fairy child of three summers, hadjslid away from them, and was now- sleeping beneath the flowers ot the prairies; and the tired wife had sighed as she looked on the cold, folded hands. " ‘‘Site will never toil as I have'done; hut oh, I wanted her so much,” the lonely mother sobbed forth. Mr. Streeter was considered a weal thy farmt-a.

Their action upon tbe stomach will, in a very short time, decrease and soon aiVcst the flow of the gas tric fluids and disturb the musoular action by which the stomach “churns,” so to speak, its contents, that every [tortion may receive its clue admixt ure of digestive material.

And then her thoughts drifted away to the dear old home of childhood, and she asked herself, for the first time, if she had done wisely to leave it for this .life of toil and care? It was a dangerous question for wife mother, and she clasped her child more closely to suppress in her heart the disloyal answer. Wheu Air. Streeter returned exul tant over the dollars he had deposi ted in the bank, he found no supper prepared, and his wife hep'ess upon the tied,with cheeks flushed with fever, and the wailing child distracting her with demands for care. A physician and nurse were soon summoned from the city, and the weary wife enjoyed the* luxury of being ill. Bat convalesccne followed; and be fore leaving bis patient the old doctor, a close orserver and a deep thinker, took the husband aside and asked: Did you know what brought this fever on your wife, Mr. Streeter? Yotijinte worked her nearly to death, ""on are speaking of my wife, not prse.” ranted; and I say again yon are working her to death. “Really, doctor, such language is unpardonable.” “And yet you will pardon it. And furthermore, by your great love for the self sacrificing woman we have just left, I shall perform an opperation on your eyes that you may see as I see," And then he placed the cold, hard facts before him, from the time she came a bride, beautiful and accuri pliahed, to tho villiage, np to date ol present illness, in which domestic cares only had haunted her in feverish dreams.* jin concluding be added: “I truly believe, if she takes np her old burdensonce, that before the year has passed die grave or an insane asylum will recent her.” The strong man shViddered. “As heaven is mry witness, sir, have only permitted, • .hot exacted, this sacrifice. She voluntarily took place by my side and haf uncomplain ingly kept step with me.” “No, she has not kept step, .to fol low your own figure. Unable to keep up with yonr long, rapid strides, she Mr. Streeter weutback.to tho room where his wife was sitting propped up by the pillows, and a gusli of un<- uteruble tenderness swelled in his heart as he glanced at' her pale, face and almost transparent hands! He sat dowon beside her and said, softly: “You don’t know how glad I am that you aro better.” “Thauk you Yes I am almost' well now—shall soon be able to be in the kitchen. I am sure I must be sadly needed there by this time.” “No, you are uot needed there. By the way, would not you like to have me put the Farm to rent this summer, and you take the boy, and go back to the granite hills?” v “Ob, could you? May I go?” and the voice quivered with excitement; thee wishfully, “but the expense, Newton. It would put us back so much.” “Yes, there it is; the old dqctor was right,”-he thought. And then aloud, “Do you know what I went to the city for tho day you were ill? 1 ’ v ,‘To deposit somo money for more land, I think you said,” she replied, wearily. “Yes but I do not .need that land. I have for more land than I can culti vate now. And you shall have that money—or at foist all you want of it —ami go home and stay all tho sum mer, and try to get somo ot your blood back. I shall write to day tha you are coming. Mrs. Streeter could hardly believe it was not one of her feverish drennts. But it all cpme about in good time, and she arrived safely a; home, whore she was pelted and caressed to her heart’s content. “You are all trying to spoil nre,’’ she would exposulate. “I shall never be fit for a farmer’s wife any more.” And thus among loving friends, riding, walking, and when at home, reading, music, and writing long let ters to her husband, the summer wore swiftly away. And now he had written that he was coming, aud she wtis counting the days that must elapse ere she couldjlook upon hisface aud be clasped to his heart.—She was eager to go now. ller holiday was over. Health had returned, and not an instant did she shrink trom tho old life. And when the husband came and saw the Wonder one summer had wrought, he again told himself that the good old doctor was right A few days were given to the old friends’and then, they turned their laces towards their Western home. It was evening wheu they arived, and the wife looked with bewilder ment on the change. A hadsome front had been added to the dwelling; and before she had time to question she was ushared into a parlor newly furnished and already lighted. Au elegant piano stood iu a recess evident ly constructed for its reception. She turned toward her husband to assure hersolf that he, too, had not changed into something or somebody else. But the merry twinkle in his pye told her he waa eojoyng her sur prise, and sho began to. realise tbe whole situation. ""Yes, nbw she undented his strange reluctance to uentiou what lie. was doing, and his willingness to have her remain, even after she had expressed her anxiety to return. ... . “Gome, I have more to show you,’ *nd he showed her into a large com modious room furnished for her own sleeping apartment even to her baby’s crib. “This is . for you. And now lny aside your dusty garments and prepare tor tea. It must have boon ready an hour ago. I will go and s?e.’’ When he retuned he found his fits tie wife sitting in her little rocker, and weeping silently. , “Have I wounded where I wished to heal ?” ho asked reproachfully. “Forgive me,” she said smiling; “I ain a goose, hut a Urcd-winged one, yon know. And I am so happy to bo at homo in such a home, that I have no words in which to tell my happiness.” He stooped to kiss the offered lips. And what a different life it was— busy, not burden-d. Time for the wants of the ntind as well as the body. Good help iu the kitchen all the time, and choice reading for any leisure hour. The farm was an unfailing source of income, fully defraying all expense, with a balance in favor. “ Been improving I see,” said Dr. Meeker, as lie reined iu bis light carriage to tho neat fence. “Yes, doctor. Come in; I want to show you all the improvements. Here, Mary, the doctor wants to see yon. And as she came to greet him, rosy with health and happiness, he nodded hisTiead at her husband. Yes, that will do;” and then glaucingnt tho open piano, “I am geing to stay just long enough, to hear one tune played. Will you favor me ?” and with the old gallantry, fitted so awkwardly to his brusque manner, he led her to the instrument, and stood hat in hand, while she played. £(811!!

Prof. Tyndall relates that while standing in the prescnco of an audience, and about to leclnre. He accidentally touched a \\ire leading from a charged battery of fifteen largo Leydcrt jars. Life was abso lutely blotted out for a very sensible interval, without a trace of pain. In another second or so consciousness returned. He saw himself in tho pressenco of the audience and in con tact with the apparatus, and realized that Jte had recievod tho discharge. The intellectual consciousness of his position was restored with exceeding rapidity, but not so tho optical con sciousness. To.prevent the audience being alarmed, he stated that it had often been his desire to receive, acci dentally, such a shock, and that his wish had at length gratified. But while ' making this explanation, tho appearance which his body presented to himself was that af being in separ ate pieces. His arms, for example, seemed to be dot-ached from his body and suspended in the air. Alemory aud tho power of reasoning and speech were complete long before tho optic nerve recovered from tho electric shock. “Have you any objects of interest in the vicinity ?” the tourist asked the Burlington man. “I • have,” eagerly replied the other, “but I can’t get at it to show it to you.

No Smoking in Here.—You can’t smoko in here,” said a John street conductor to a countryman, who was pulling away vigorously at a five-cent cigar in a car half full of ladies.
