When the frost is on the punkin and the fod-
der's in the shock,
AND you hear the kyouck and gobble of the
struttin' turkey cock,
And the claokin' of the guineys and the
cluckin' of the hens,
And the ROSTERS hallylooyer as he tiptoes on
the fence,
Oh it's then the times feller is feelin, 4
his best,
With the risin' sun to greet him from night
of gracious rest,
AS ne leaves the house bareheaded and goes
out to feed the stock,
When the frost is on the punkin and the fod-

Ihey's somepin kind a. hearty like about the
atmosphere
When the heat O. summers over and the
coolin' fall is here
OF course we miss the flowers and the blos-

And the humble of the hummin' birds and
buzzin' of the bees;
But the airs SO appetizin', and the landscape

The husky, rustic rustic of the tossels of the

And the raspin' of the tangled leaves, as
golden as the morn;
The stubble in the furries, kind o. lonesome

A preachin' sermons to US of the barns they

The strawstack in the medder and thereaper

The hosses in their stalls below, the clover

Oh it sets my heart clickin', like the tickin'

Scenes at the New York Horse Market.

Inc stranger who IS passing Twenty
fourth street, in the Third avenue ele-
waited railroad, does not need to be told
that he is in the vicinity of the great
horse marts of the city. His olfactory
nerves speedily assure him of the fact.
If anything further is needed he has
only to glance out of the car windows
and he viii catch fieeting glimpses Of
stable boys and men, whose 'shorsy"
procliyities are not to be mistaken, en-
gagged in handling refractory beasts Or
discussing the points Of the animals
with the air Of connoisseurs. Let the
stranger get off at Twenty-third street
station and spend an hour among the
numerous long, narrow stables that
make up the neighborhood known to
New Workers as The Bulls Head,
and he will wonder where all the horses
come from that supply this market.
The countryman who spends days hag-
Cling over trade will see a single
dealer sell horses as fast as the stable
men can trot them before the eyes Of
the purchasers.
How many horses do you sell il a
year ?" asked Tribune reporter, re-
Gently, of Bulls Head dealer.
@Ten or twelve thousand" he re-
piled.
"Where do they all come from n
"From all over the country Canada,
the New England States, the Middle
States, the Southern States and the
Western States, and recently there
have been importations Of the thick
necked, heavy Norman horses from
France. These latter are for breeding
purposes. TO supply this market
thirty thousand horses a year are re-
quired Every street railroad keeps a
man securing the country for suitable
horses for its use. They want light,
quick horses that weigh about LOO
pounds. The brewery and express
companies and the heavy truclmen
will take the largest horses they can
get. The nearer to 1000 pounds
horse weighs, the more they win pay
for him. It Is to supply this demand
that the Norman horses are being
brought to this country. have
stable Of Norman horses, one Of street
car horses, one filed with old hacks To
sell to street peddlers, and one where
the young fellow who wants to take
his girl out behind a toppy team can
be accommodated
When the young horse is brought
from the country he receives his
breaking il. at the hands Of the
street-car Or truck-driver. In either
case the result is the same. He
is well fed and wen groomed, but
driven remorselessly over the Belgian
blocks for two years until be is stiff
and spawned. Then be IS sold Oh Il
cleaning out day to a street peddler.
The poor horse then finds that his
troubles have just begun, and hence
forth there is only the watchful hu-
manity of Mr.. Bergh to protect him.
Last year Mr.. Bergh kindly killed
about 1900 Of these horses. Then
their carcasses were sent to Barren
Island. There every particle of them
IS utilized. Their bones are made into
knife handles and combs and find "
ready sale. Their hides are tanned for
leather, and their hoofs are made into
glue and mucilage.-NesO York zrf

MRS. DUnBAR's WEDDING DRESS.

There was no getting away from
the heat that day, although had pene-
trated into woodland glooms; the
fierce sun seemed to heat into the
heart Of the forest with shafts of fire.
The very ferns about me curled their
leaves, the dry air seemed to pulsate,
and the little stream tinkled along in a
warm, complaining way. Under green
-sVerarching boughs l was stretched
out on the wan thin grass reading Lord
Dufferin's Letters from High Lati-
tudes, as something eminently adapted
to soothe the heated victim of the dog
days. Sometimes my fancy returned
from those limitless fields of ice to the
present, and I longed for a fragment
Of one Of those cold opaline icebergs
to cool ny parched tongue. Suddenly
1 wayaware Of other rustlings in the
neighborhood stronger than that stirred
by languid breezes over weary leaves
A soft swish of silken material and a
fRirlish giggle betrayed the vicinity of

#fiirtation with any available subject. l

anything
No; you are the lassie with the
lint white locks" laughed the other
but this sort of hair is like the red,
red gold, and goes with those very
soft velvet black eyes like Miss Dun
bars
Ny heart gave sudden throb.
"She has plenty of money, and, oh
don't her diamonds make my heart
ache but 1 wouldn't take them and
her conscience into the bargain-would
you, Gussie?" asked the girl, with
another giggle.
What is the mystery about her
I wish we could get at the true IN
wardness of it." answered Gussie.
Why, they do say she has murdered
two husbands, first getting their lives
insured for large sum-" answered
Minnie.

aOh, well, she might have got a
divorce from the last man.
But, don't you see, if she was
divorced she had nopbject in murder

had no object in getting divorcedas
At this the two girls burst into as
merry peal Of laughter as if they had

my teeth in Intellectual rage, for Miss

MERITS OF A WROUGHT IRON RAGE

1t is of the utmost importance that
the article on which our daily food is
cooked should be the very best article
in the house, as health depends largely
upon the food we eat and more upon
how it is cooked. Therefore good
cooking apparatus is a most important
piece of furniture, in f,,ct \ national
blessing. 1t is an article which is used
and serves mankind every day, but not
being Of every day purchase. One Of
the greatest points to be considered in
buying is durability, good baking quail
tiles, and in fact, to select only the best
in every respect. This can most GER
tainly be ascribed to n Wrought Iron
Range, as they are made specially with
view to strength, the body and oven
Wrought Plate Iron, which does not
crack or break by expansion or con-
traction, and being closely and tightly
riveted, warrants itself against any
binding or warping. 1t is an expe-
rienced fact that an oven constructed
of Wrought Iron will absorb the heat
much quicker, more evenly and more
intensely, than one made of Cast Iron,
which is very essential in cooking. The
joints are rivited closely insuring per-
feet tightness,, while the seams of a
Cast Iron Stove separate, warp and get
out OF place, allowing the ashes, dirt,
! SCOT and smoke to pass into the oven,
making it worthless. This trouble is
much heard and complained of by those
using Cast Iron Stoves; and another
important matter to be considered, there
is not the least possible chance of a
house being set on fire by Il Range, as
they are constructed so as to prevent
the flame or sparks ever reaching tho
pipe or fue. With all Cast Iron Stoves
it is different, tho blaze or sparks pass
directly up tho pipe and very frequently
set the SCOT in fiue on fire and of course
endangers the house. Apparently n
Wrought Iron Range Is more expen-
sive, but in reality, cheaper, when dura-
bility, economy, convenience, comfort,
ETC., are considered.
