Canon Taylor, in that most interest ing book, "The Origin of the Aryans," ha raised once more a question which has often attracted the attention of scholars, especially those interested in the Homeric poems,- says the Academy. Why is it that in the earliest records of the Greeks, Egyptians," Assyrians, Indians, and Celts we find the horse used for drawing chariots, but not yet for riding? Canon Taylor remarks: "It is curious to notice at how late a period men first ventured to mount 'the swift one;' " and he goes on to say that there is nothing in the "Rig Veda" to show that the art of riding was practiced, and that our first notice of it is in the "Zend Avesta." The Homeric Greeks employed the horse almost exclusively for the chariot, riding being only alluded to in some two or three isolated passages, as when Odysseus and Diomedes rode to the ships the horses of Rhesus which they had captured. This, however, shows that it was hardly from fear that the Greeks did not habitually ride insteacl of drive their steeds. The same remark applies to the ancient Britons, who, according to the ancient accounts, performed wonderful feats of agility in running out and standing upon the pole of the chariot. The true solution may probably be this: The primitive horse that, ranged over the plains of Europe and Asia was too small when Re was first domesti cated to carry a man for any great time or distance on his back. This, of course, would render him practically useless for warfare. There is ample evidence to prove that the primitive wild horse was of very diminutive size. Probably of all his descendants the Shetland pony is his best represent ative. Canon Taylor says (speaking of the enormous deposit of their bones found at Solutre, near Macon, which contains from twenty thousand to forty thousand skeletons): "This primitive horse was a diminu tive animal, not much larger than an ass, standing about thirteen hands high, the largest specimens not exceed ing fourteen hands. But the head was of disproportionate size, and the teeth were very powerful. He resembled the tarpan or wild horse of the Caspian steppes." Even long after he had been domesti cated he remained very small, as is proved by the bits made of bronze and staghorn which have been found at Mo ringen and Auvernier, which belong to the latest bronze age. "These bits are only three and one half inches wide, and could now be hardly used for a child's pony." Let us now turn to Herodotus, where, speaking of the unknown regions to the north ox the Danube, he says that the only people he can learn of as inhab iting the region are called Sigyannae, who wear the costume of the Medes, and whose horses are shaggy all over the body, being covered with hair to a depth of five fingers, and are small and flat nosed and incapable of carrvina men, but when yoked under chariots they are very swift, and that the na tives accordingly drive chariots. This description of the external appearance of the little horses of the .Sigyannae of central Europe agrees very well with that of the sketches found near Ma con. The simims shape of the head tallies well with the ugly shaped skull and powerful juws of the bone de posits. We can hardly doubt that we have here primitive horses such as those whose diminutive bits have been found in the later lake dwellings of (Switzer land. It seems to me then that the reason Herodotus here assign for the fact that this tril of central Europe drove their horses instead of riding them is the trite explanation why all early peoples alike employed the horse for driving Ion; lief.ire they ever habit ually priieticrd riding. It was only after generation if d'nnestieation that, under careful feeding and breeding, the horse lieeame of Ktiflieient size to carry a man on lu buck with chmi. That aize was held to lie of great importance by the Homeric Greeks is proved by Iliad x. Ol.

Cow, a Home and a Pig Form a Cloaa Copartnrrsulp. A notable instance of this oddity came under the writer's notice once up on a time on a ranch that was largely devoted to stock-raising, says the San Francisco Chronicle. Cattle, horses and hogs were kept in large numbers and allowed to run . at will upon the range. One day in riding over the mesa an oddly assorted trio was found in a locality at a considerable distance from any other animals. The trio was made up of a cow, a horse and a pig and all three were feeding side by side in the most amicable manner. At first it was thought to be nothing more than a coincidence that the three members of different families should happen to be together, but subsequently it turned out that this trio had evidently set up an alliance offensive and defensive against all the other animals on the range. They were always together It was a comical sight to see the oddly assorted trio traveling over the range. The horse usually took the lead, with the cow next, and the pig last of all. Occasionally the horse looked aground to see if his porkship was keeping up, and if he fell behind a halt would be made to allow him to come closer. When feeding the pig was just as apt to put his snout down by the horse's or cow's mouth and endeavor to snatch the grass from between their teeth as to graze on his own hook. One could almost see in the countenances of the larger animals a hnlf-humorous, patron izing air as they regarded their diminu tive companion, while the pig, on the other hand, walked with a bullying swagger and a sclf-confidont air, for all the world like a youngster who trots along by the side of his "big brother," in the full assurance that all his battles will be fought for him. A STOLEN KISS. It Was Thankfully Received and Prompt ly Receipted For. I was never kissed by a woman but once in my life by which I mean that that kiss made me forget all others, says a correspondent in the Philadel phia Inquirer. Describe it? Impossible. It was at Richfield Springs. I was a handsome fellow in those days, and had had several desperate flirtations with young girls. So I didn't think anything of it one evening while sitting on the veranda in rather a dark corner to feel a pair of soft arms suddenly clasped around my neck and a mouth of thrill ing fragrance and wonderful aptitude in kissing set upon my lips. When I came to my senses I threw my arms around the beautiful unknown, but a low voice whispered: "Be generous and let me go!" I obliged. "A month or more afterward, when 1 had returned to town, I received a dainty little anonymous note, telling me that that kiss had been the result of a lark of several young married women, who held an indignation meet ing and protested against the conduct of the young girls who had set a cordon about me and claimed me as their spe cial property. So it was resolved that one of the indignant band should be chosen by lot to carry a kiss to me, and I was now requested to rece'rt for it. The receipt was Inclosed and read as follows: 'Received on the hotel veranda at Richfield Springs ui 9:30 in the even ing of July 17,188, one kiss in good condition, from uintitwn lips.'" DON'T SMILE AT THE PREACHER. A Rcottish Divine Nny lie Would Bather Have a Book i brown at 1 1 Ira. Rev. John McXcUl, who is a well- known rresbyteri.-n clergyman, in formed his congr. ,atlon at Dundee., Scotland, the otlu ; .luy that he would rather have a man walk out of the church declaring that "McNeill has in sulted me," than sit smiling in his seat. "Don t smile," he said, "for that knocks the heart out of a preacher. Whatever way he looks he cannot get even crossed. Ihm't pretend to like the preaching If you don't Don't get up a sickly smile over your face and try to amile as if yon were Junt mad. Let the madness out, and, if you like, throw hymn book at my head." London Truth nay this is almost an curious a "pulpit utterance" an the outburst of a duv tinguiidted divine who was preaching on a wintry Sttndny In a famous church to a congregation of strangers. There waa a great deal of coughing, and a the aermnn went on the volleys increased.

ITae Extraordinary Powers of a - Young Senorita. All Sorta or I'h.mleul AlKietlons Dispelled by Her (Supernatural Influ ence Jllraetiloua ler foruiances. Teresa Urrea, the eighteen-year-old daughter of well-to-tlo parents, who has been astonishing the inhabitants of her native state with miraculous perform ances for many months, is still at work, says a Sonora correspondent of the New Stork Sun, and in such a way that re sponsible persons, whose talcs are to be credited, shake their heads and say it is certainly very curious. Old Don Tomas, the girl's father, a practical and prosaic hacienda proprietor, is not happy at the notoriety brought upon the family. At the same time he cannot help himself. Teresa began her strange actions by awakening her parents one midnight, many months ago, with pitiable groans and lamentations. The terrified old folks tumbled out of bed and hurried into the adjoining room. Teresa in formed them that she was suffering a "great agony of spirit," but that, as 30on as the cock should crow tlirice she would be relieved. She had spasms, and went into a trance that lasted thir teen days. Her parents thought her lead and were preparing for the funeral when she revived and recovered. Im mediately after this she began to per form wonderful cures by the laying on of hands. A lame woman was her first sase. This becoming rapiaiy gossipea about, the lame, blind and otherwise ailing began to arrive in crowds, walk ing on their knees as soon as they came m sight ol the House, ana reciting prayers and calling the young lady the "holy maiden. " Don Tomas, the father, began to think it had gone far enough, and said em phatically that the nonsense must cease. "You may say what you please, papa," said Teresa, "but you will see, by and by, that! it is not nonsense." And she immediately started in to give him a proof of her powers in mind reading. The old gentleman was quite upset and had no more to say. Teresa, therefore, continues in the good work; The authorities have thought it worth while to investigate, and the result is a report signed by Senors Tiburclo, Es quer Parada, Castro and Amparan, all )t whom are the opposite of supersti tions. According to what they have iiscovcred Miss Urrea has cured more than three hundred sufferers from all kinds of complaints. The Mexicans, especially the men, are rather given to scoffing at such manifestations. One incredulous individual named Jose Parades laughed in the young girl's face, whereupon, so says the report, she slipped out of her body and stood before him for an Instant in double form, both shapes being perceptible to him. Parades rubbed his eyes and his hair rose on end. "What did you see?" asked Teresa. "Nothing," he stammered. "That is, it was an optical illusion." But he waa converted. And so .Teresa keeps on She is a tall, slender girl, with small features, a melancholy glance, and mod est manners. She has but a moderate education, and is disposed to preach faith and good works. The hacienda of her father is sixty miles from Alamos, between the Yaqui and the Mayo. And there all day long, and day after day, in the eternal sum mer sunlight of that land, the crowd of sufferers come walking on their knees and droning their prayers and beseech ing the "holy maiden." And Teresa meet them with benign self-confidence and bids them tie well and depart in peace. "Something very curious about it," say the skeptical, and shrug their shoulders. MAY BE WASHED OUT. Dyspeptic to Have a Fresh Start If a Meal .j Not Dig est ad. During the past several years physi cians have tried, with gratifying success, a novel treatment for dyspepsia and can cer or the stomach by washing oui the stomach. The process is very aim plo and not dangerous. A long, flexible pipe Is paused down the throat until one end la in tbe stomach. Tbe upper end has a funnel attached, into which hot water Is poured until the stomach Is filed. The weight of the water in the pi po and funnel gives a hydraulic pres sure sufficient to slightly distend the stomach. The pipe has an aperture big enough to hold a lead pencil. After the Stomach has boon filled the funnel end of the pipe Is turned down until it is lower than the bottom of tbe stomach, and tbe stomach Is emptied as a barrel of any fluid Is emptied through a siphon. The proneas may be repealed several times. The reault Is that the undigested food and mucus are washed out, and tbe hot water clones the blood fennels, and reduces inflammation. The relief Is Im tnedUto. The dyspeptic mat have his Stomach Washed out before a meal, so vi.ai oe can taas a irean atari. Alter I the lapse of a sufficient time fur ordi nary digestion, the stomach mar be wahml out again. Tho prueeaa, says the New York Sun, baa been la uae at tbe New York Hos pital for some time. Tbe stomach pumr baa been mainly used In rases of poison ing, and Is considered to be the first ea entiat before administering antidotes, but they are to seldom used that few t'tijainant have them. Ileeentlr la s cane of polaonlnf ihree prominent phy u iana were applied to for the uae of s a lorn sen pump, and neither of then bad one, and the paiient bad to be taken tt lbs bos pi Ui.
