When a horRe shows a tendency to shy at anything, he should be held by u firm and gentle hand, and spoken to kindly. I f possible hold Ids head di rectly toward the object, and let him look at It as long as he will, then move him toward It. If the object is station ary, let him get acquainted with it, let him smell it and look closely at It. The moment a horse becomes familiar with the things that alarm him, and knows what they are, he grows indif ferent to them. This Is the only way to break a horse of shying at every thing he meets on the road.

It is known as the 8eton-Karr contribution, having been discovered by this Englishman in Somaliland, on tbe eastern coast of A f rica. Tbe implements were purchased from the discoverer by the Smithsonian Institution. There «re about 50 pieces in the collection, made of flint, of qur- tide, and ranging in site from an inch or so in length to half a foot, some weighing several pounds. The objects are supposed to be spear heads, battle axes and wedges, truncheons, blud geons or whatever they may be termed. The discoverer had this to say on tiie subject of his find and the locality where the objects were unearthed: “ Certain landmarks as to the four rivers mentioned in Genesis led me think that the Garden o f Eden, if it ever existed, may have been here, and that these very tools had been made and used by Adam and his numerous descendants.
