FEEDING The average horse, with the usual Sow of saliva, -eats one quart of oats in about fifteen minutes; with this flow partially ' stopped- it takes thirty minutes. This shows how important it is to have the proper quantity. of saliva and digestive juices. Clydesdale Stock Food increases the saliva and digestive juices because the. feed being made "tasty" it makes the animals " mouth water," the same as our own when we add butter or -jam to our soda bis - nut; it makes it more enjoyable to eat. The horse, therefore, eats its feed up clean. The increased digestion and assimilation makes the blood circulate better, loosening the hide and making the coat glossy.

And after•an eaoy tea, Mrs. Waugh and JacqueIina set out in the fancily bleigh. A swift run over the hard, frozen snow brought them to Old Fields, where they stopped a mom- ent to pick up Marian, and then shooting forward at the same rate of speed, they reached the lecture - room in full time. Jacqueline was perhaps the very least enchanted of all his hearers— ' she was, in fact, an exception, and found the discourse so entirely un- interesting that it was witia difficul- ty she could refrain from yawning M the face of the orator. Mrs. •'Wa:;;h also. perhaps, was but half • mesmerized, for her eyes would catl- tiously wander from the Rcturer's pulpit to the hide window on her •tight hand. At length she stooped •-and. whispered to Jacqueline: • 'Child, be cautious; Dr, Grimshaw is on the ground—I have seen his shall have such a nice time! Old Grim has gone to Leonardtown, and won't be home till to -morrow!" "Has he, minion? By St. Judas! you are discovered now! I have now full evidence of your turpitude. By all the saints! you shall answer for it fearfully," said the professor, be- tween his clenched teeth, as he closed his arm upon Jacqueline's arm and dragged her toward the sleigh. "Ha! ha! ha! Oh! well, I, don't care! If I mistook yea for Thurs- ton, -it is not the first mistake I ever made about you. I mistook you once before for a man!" said Jacko, defiantly. Ile thrust her into the sleigh al- ready occupied by Mrs. Waugh and Marian, jumped in after her, and took the seat by her side, "Why, I thought that you set out for Leonardtown this afterno.n, Dr. Grimshaw!" said Mrs. Waugh, cold- ly. lace rise up to that lower pane of "You may have jumped to other glass•at the corner of that window, ''conclusidns equally false and danger - several times.

"I3y St. Judas Iscariot, that's her business." "No, indeed, I think - it is ours; some provision should be made for her, Commodore Waugh." "I'll recommend her to the trustees of the almshouse, Miss Mayfield," Marian thought it best not to pur- sue the subject then, but resolved to embrace the first opportunity Of ap- pealing to the commodore's smoth- ered chivalry in behalf of a woman, . old, poor, feeble, -and friendless. During the supper Dr. Grimshaw sat up as stiff and solemn—Jacque- ' Bra said—"as if he'd swallowed tire poker and couldn't digest it." When they rose from the table', and were about leaving the dining -room, Dr. , Grimshaw glided in a funereal man- ner to the side of the commodore, and demanded a private interview with him. "Not to -night, Nave! Not to -night! , I know by yo'r looks what it is! It is some new deviltry of .Jacqueline's. That can wait! I'm as sleepy as a whole cargo of opium! I would not stop to' talk now to Paul Jonas, if he was to rise from the dead and • Visit roe!" • And the professor had to be con- tent with that, for almost immed- iately the family separated for . the night.
