A Model Debtor.

OF six months, they generally manage to post
pone the settlement ofall claims that many

A HORSE ANECDOTE.

A Canadian friend of ours wa. telling Cs
the other day how he managed to break Il
tayorite horse OF his ofone trick, that Of break
ing his halter whenever he was fastened in
the stable Our friend placed the animal in
question in stable that stood exactly on the
edge of a high bluff some thirty feet above the
st. Lawrence As usual, 80 soon as he was
left alone. our pony broke his halter, lacked
out of the stable door, and, rs necessary
consequence, tumbled heels over head into
the river, disappearing below the surface
with the impetus and gravitation Of his fall:
IIewas next seen swimming for dear life and
heading in shore. He landed ina dripping
condition, and was easily secured. Doubtless
he pondered gravely over the lesson, forever
a!terward he never made the slightest attempt
to break his halter. The philosophy Of deal
ing with horses, and perhaps with noblcr
animals, is to fight them with their own wca-
pons, to let them be punished by their own
vices. Ifyour pony has n trick Of backing,
back him quarter Of mile: if he stops, tic
him to the place for from twelve to twenty
four hours without food or water, and lac viii
be glad to obey you when you next call on
him. AT least 50 say our Canadian author
