Notwithatanding this ho does not ignore hi» pleblan origin or effect aristocratic notion», as his recent selection of a coat of arms for a new carrlago, at the urgent request ol hi» wife, will »bow. Tho lady, thinking the old carriage unfashion nble. got, the ready consent of her busbund for anew ono; arid wa« anxious tbat tho "family" coat-of-arma should be embla zoned upon its panne's. This the husband consented to, promising to »ketch them out for the painter when the vehicle wu completed. At that time the lady presen ted her»elf for his sketch of the family arms. Taking a pen tho millionaire drew something resembling a monndi by It wa* stuck a manure fork, and upon the fork wa. perched Chanticleer, rampant. "Why, what Is t.hi* ?" asked madam, in amazement. "This," said th" man of money, "i» onr family coat of arm«. My grandfather made bis money carting manure in Brook lyn, and invested it in a real est ate In Mew York.

Tho best preventive» are animal food, raw bones, oyster shell» and charcoal, btoken fine, and a variety ot grains, with clean water and clean apartments. Some times a particular fowl shows a more in veterate disposition to eat fei thers than the rest of the flock; it i» best in such casas to remove or kill such fowls. Iiis sup posed that this habit is first induced while the fowls are moulting, and their pin feathers are filled with blood, of which they are very fond.
