A Pony That Wipes His Feet.
The Duchess of Bedford, who,
even more than the duke, is a lover
of animals, has many pets among
the collection of Woburn abbey. One
of the miosj; eminent of these is a
tiny pony, not three feet high,
which she has herself trained from
very early youth. This little crea
ture is as tame as a dog and runs
about with the mistress everywhere
she goes. The duchess rarely
misses paying a daily visit to the
hospital which she has had erected
for the Woburn villagers, and she is
always accompanied by her pet pony,
greatly to the delight of the small
invalids in the hospital, who love to
see him rub his feet on the door mat
before entering—a clever trick
taught him by tlie duchess.—West
minster Gazette.

Disinfecting.
The following solution is found
satisfactory for disinfecting, vessels
and clothes used in the sick room
where there are infectious diseases,
since it leaves no stain and will not
harm the most delicate fabrics: Dis

lead in one-half pint of hot water
and a saltspoonful of Bait in a pail
of cold water. Mix together, and it
is ready for use. This is poisonous
