“The hackney,” answered Dr Huide- koper, ‘“‘traces its orgin back centuries. he oldest surviviag appela-

country appears to be nag, derived from the Anglo-Saxon hnegan, to ‘neigh.’ When the Nermins became masters, they intro- duced their own familiar term of haquenee or hacquenee, the French word derived from tue Latin eguus. This name had been fuily adup’ed into the Engli-<h tungue in the year 1303 Robert Mannynge, more commonly known as Robert de B:unne, from his being a monk at Bourne, in Lin- colushire, in that year used it in the ‘Ik on his haknee.’ In ‘fhe Vision of Piers Plow- man,’ written about the year 1350, the word is thus used: *Ac hakneyes hadde thei none, bote hakneyes to hyre.’ Chaucer, who it is believed lived for a time in Nor- folk, spelled the word in two forms,— hakeney and hackney, All these old writers use it to describe a riding-horse for general purposes, as distinct from the war- horse.”

**But, doctor, you only tell whence the name was derived, and not the horse.”

“‘His origin can be traced back to three distiav: classes of horses, all possessing peculiar qualities which are amalgamated in the hackney: the shire or native horse of England; the navtive Irish hurse, which | is the same as the Breton horse from the northwest of France; and the thorough- bred. The Irish horse, an animal with much action and many superior advantages for hunting purposes over the heavy shire horse waa bred on the latter. In order to ‘Obtain quality, endurance, and speed, the progeny of this affiliation were crossed with thoroughbreds, and the result was the hackney asit is fuund in Yorkshire and Norfolk. But in Yorkshire breeders used more thoroughbred blood, and made a race known as the Cleveland} bay, and the result was that York- ehtre became celebrated for its great coach-

‘That is easily explained. Up to a few | years ago the hackney was an animal that was | put only to plebeian uses,—generally let out tor hire; a ho:ee of comfortable gait, much action, and cip+ble of making good time over aroad But, asthe result of horses of all! kinds of this c!aes being picked up for special purposes and then bred with a special pnrpose in view, a distinct race was created, just as happened in the case of the standard bred The trotter was first an animal of simply a certain gait. He was not a race-| horse. It was found that the introduction of thoroughbred blood, especially that tracing its | descent from Divmed, would get fast trotting

In a similar way waa brought about the evolu- tion of the prize hackney of to-day. He is not a great coacheho:se meant to carry a heavy load, nor a hunter with a great deal of thoroughbred blood, but really and practic- ally a country road-horse of good action. His is, in fact, an artificial race, in the members of which it is required that they shall be poss- essed of a certaia conformation of body, that they shall have great, slanting shoulders, and that the legs shall be placed at a closed angle in order to give a forward movement with very high stylish action, although without the long swiog which di-tinguishes the race horse.”—!.ouis N.

| Alive With a Broken Neck.

ANOTHER REMARKABLE CASK WHEREBY A | LIFE WAS SAVED. | A rare medical case and one that stands almost unparalleled in the history of medicine up to the present time has been successfully treated in the little village of Hay teviile, | Mass. It is the -esetting uf broken neck, and the patient, a young man of 22, after a confinement of three months, is now able to walk about the village streets About three months ago, Dr. Hubert H. Flagg, of Northampton, while returning from « visit | to a countrv house, witnaessed an accident by which two young men in a party of four were thrown from a wegon. One ro'led into a ditch and picked nimelf up, bat the other lay motionless in the road His neck was broken. The universal m:xim ia cises of a broken neck is: ‘‘ Make death av easy as possible,” but Dr Flagg, when a medical student at the University of Pennsylvania, had decided that if a doctor got at his patient in time it ought to be possible to set a broken neck as well as a dislocated shoulder or thigh. He stepped back to the body. pl.ced his knees against the patient’s shoulders, and took the head geutly but firmly between his hands, then turning the head from side to side delicately, he gave a strong, steady pull. There was a sharp snap and the head was again in its socket. Respiration had become imperceptible before the head was sn«pped back into its original position, but this done, there was immediate relief aud « slight respiration as noticeable. By exercisi g

Touching an elderly gentleman on the shoulder, she sweetly enquired : **Can you tell me who occupews this pie ?”’ ‘*Gentlemen,” said a peddler, ** these razors were made in a cave, by the light of a diamond, in Andalusia, in Spain.
