intlicti',1 in the process of shoeing. Then,
over ami above the mortality actually in
curred from careless shoeing or pricking
of the hoof with nails, there is a great
aniourt of suffering inflicted upon the
an i ma Ik from the same cause, which
either throws the animal aside for a time
from work, or entails costly treatment,
or very often Utli. Then the piercing
of the hoof so often as is necessary in
street horses with nails has the effect of
wastir g the wearing surface of the foot,
and tl us impairing its ilurul.ility. Fur
therm re, there are many horses whose
feet are so shelly and brittle that it is a
matter of the greatest difficulty to keep
nailed shoes on tlieiu. In the event of
the si oes being removed from horses
that g to grass the feet are frequently
damaged from having been riddled with
nails, while the replacement of the shoes
is often attended with intense pain and
suffering to the animals.
Further evidence might be. given in
favor of a shoe wliich could lie affixed to
the fcot without nails. The utility of
the na Hess shoe, shown In the annexed
cuts, is a shoe for harness and army
horses, has, according to Mark Lane Ex
press, been proven, while it is claimed
that "its extension to every class of
horse6 in the country is simply a matter
of adaptation." The diagrams of the
shoe indicate not only the formation of
the sh le itself, but the manner in which
it is a fixed to the hoof.
On reference to these, it will be seen
that a ; the toe of the shoe is a piece of
steel called the front pillar. This can be
tapped so as to form any angle with the
inside surface of the shoe, in order to
adapt it to the 6hae of the hoof, against
which it fits closely, as represented in
the ill istration of the side view. In the
diagram of the shoe, there is at the toe,
lehiud the front pillar, a small piece of
steel, '.vhich fits into a small groove made
in the foot to receive it. In the event,
however, of the horse suffering from
"seedy toe," this piece of steel is done
away with, and two diagonal studs, set
at opposite angltson each side of the toe,
are su'Mtiluted; and as this alternative
plan is just as effectual in every way, it
can I adopted with all horses instead of
the too pieces if preferred. Beyond this
very slight groove the hoof requires no
preparation whatever.
At the heel of the shoe there were
originally heel pillars, as shown in the
illustration of the side view; but in the
latest patterns these pillars are abolished,
and tl e sulstitute, wlrile equally effica
cious, is smaller. To this heel pillar, or
its substitute, is fastened the steel band,
showr in the side view illustration, and
which, when in place, runs parallel to
the to.) of the hoof round it, and joins tin
to the top of the front pillar. Originally
the hand was made in two halves, as de
picted in the front view diagram; but
now the hand is continuous from one
heel t the other, and to the top of the
front pillar a third prong is added, over
which the loop in the middle of the band
slips. To Ox the shoe, it is only neces
sary t raise Clin horse's foot, place the
shoe i:i position, pass the hand round,
and shp the loop in the center over the
prong of tiie front pillar, and all is taut.
Now when the shoe is fixed, as shown
in the illustration, it cannot shift for
ward liec.ause of the opposition of the
toe studs and front pillar; it cannot
work bar k on account of the toe studs
and the band; whilu it cannot dropoff
became of the band and front pillar.
The band, it may lie observed, fits round
the smallest portion of the hoof, and
therefore cannot get lelow a certain
point; hence the support given by it to
the shoe. No part of the hoof is coin-
so. 2 NAI1.LESS HORSESHOE.
pressed, and there is abundant room for
the expansion of the foot iu every direc
tion, i-ssuiuuig expansion to take place
at all To remove the shoe it is only
necestary to reverse the previous process
rele ise the loop of the band from the
front pillar, and the shoe at once comes
away.

An important Element
Of the success of Hood's Barsaparilla is
the fact that every purchaser receives a
fair equivalent for his money. The fa
milliar headline, "1(H) Doses One Dol
lar," s.olen by imitators, is original with
and fue only of Hood's 8arsaparilla.
This can easily be proven by any one
who . desires to test the matter. For
real ec onomy, buy only Hood's Sareapa
rilla. Bold by all druggists.

Cheery Words
From a gentleman of Texas to his own
people, and all others over the country
Hear what he says:
I have been a practical druggist in
Tyler for a number of years, and in that
time have had occasion to examine, try,
and notice the effect of nearly all the
highly recommended preparations or pat
ent medicines on the market, and as I
have suffered untold misery myself, the
past number of years, from a severe form
of inflammatory rheumatism, and could
find nothing to cure or relieve me, I had
almost drawn a conclusior ..hat all pat
ent medicines were more or less frauds
until about one year ago, I was in
duced ty a friend now living inTvler, to
try a preparation known as 3 B. or Bo
tanic Blood Balm, and after a long per
suasion on his part, I finally made up
my mind to make one more effort to rid
myself of the terrible affliction; and it
now affords me the greatest pleasure of
my life to state to the citizens of Wraith
county that I am entirely cured, with no
traces of the disease left, and all effected
by the magic healing properties of B. B.
B., which I consider the grandest, purest
and most powerful blood remedy known
to man. I have been subject to in
flammatory attacks since ten years of
age, and up to the present time have had
four. The last spell came on me in
November, 1885, over a year
ago, at which time I was
confined to my bed for eight weeks, pass
ing the nights in misery, with no sleep
except when produced by narcotics and
various opiates. The week previous to
using B. B. B. up to that time I had only
eaten six metls, and could scarlely sit up
without support; but after using three
bottles I was able to relish my meals and
to walk up town, and after six bottles
had been used, thank heaven, I was en
tirely cured, and not the slightest pain
felt since that time. When I returned to
business in February, my weight was 145
pounds, but gradually increased until my
regular weight was again attained, 210
pounds. The noticeable fact in what I
have so cheerfully stated is, that this un
paralleled and remarkable discovery, B.
B. B. , cured me in mid winter, at the
very time my sufferings and misery were
the greatest. I take it on myself as a
practical druggist to heartily, cheerfully,
as well as conscientiously, recommend
this glorious blood remedy to all sufferer?
of rheumatism or blood troubles, and not
only myself, but the firm ot McKay &
Adams, who hfindle it, will cheerfully in
dorse its superior merits.
