Pony Races.

One of the most characteristic scenes
| of the New Forest is to be seen on the
day of Its annual pony races. These
are 'sfor the purpose of improving the
breed of ponies bred in the forest;"
they take place every August on Bal
mer Lawn, close to B~rockenhurst, the
old Broceste of the ''Domesday Book"
Brockenhurst is about five miles away
across the forest; it is visible from
Bauelieu heath.
The little forest ponies are not
troubled by the hundreds that are wor-
rying them; those that have been
trimmed and groomed for the racing
look handsome, spirited little things.
One pretty gray poney with long,
sweeping tail and name has won many
a race on this course, and wins again
to-day; he has reigned for a long time
as The King of the Forest; but now he
belongs to a new owner and bears a
new name. Another we'll built pony
is trimmed in quite a different style;
His name is very short and his tail
''docked," in defiance of the Society
for the Prevention of Cruelty to Ami
mails. He belongs to a dealer and

appearance.
The winning-post is surrounded by a
group of people who are really in earn
est about the races; on each side of it
a small street IS created by the various
shows which set up here for the day,
and up and down this street, between
the races, wanders an idle throng of
peasants. It is the opinion of the
natives of the New Forest that these
races are far superior to the Derby,
the principal reason for this prefer
ence being that the fun goes steadily
on, and waxes hotter as the day
wanes. To an outsider the aspect of
this primitive, old-world-looking dissi-
patton is in itself very interesting.
There is a great sobriety about it to
al appearance; the peasants wander
slowly from one old-fashioned show to
another; there is nothing put of keep
ing with the lovely setting which sur
rounds the picture. But in the heart
of it there is a fever of excitement,
after all, which but ill accords with
the placidity of the old forest. Heavy
betting goes on in the group gathered
round the winn1ng-post; some of the
owners of the ponies, small farmers in
the neighborhood, will stake all they
possess in the world upon a favorite-
SO that there is quite the air of a min
iature Derby about the scene as the
game little ponies come tearing past
the winning post, ridden in every cor
ceivable fashion by their boy-jockeys.
These are mostly country lads. who
have learned to ride as a fish learus to
swim, but not with quite the same
natural elegance. Now and again
there is a regular jockey among them
one who has perhaps lost his chance
of riding in the large races by reason
of some unprofessional trick-who will
come down and ride here, and possibly
make 9100 Or so. He is easily recog-
nized among the others as soon as the
ponies start by his businesslike style.
The ponies themselves all look exceed
ingly trim; they have been taken in
for three months, and the attention
they receive converts them into won-
derfullY pretty creatures.-English u

Seeming a SLAYER.

Many years ago, when slavery was
the rule and not the exception, vessels
running q cargo were extremely
clever in eluding capture and putting
their pursuers off the scent. A good
story is told of the iagship-Winches-
ter, I think-going out of Simon's bay
bound to the Mauritius. When off
Cape Hangklip, late n afternoon, a
very rakish, suspicious-looking craft
was sighted, carrying an unusual
number of staysails, who upon seeing
the man-of-war hoisted Spanish colors

The reason people despise patent
medicines is because they are usually
recommended to cure all diseases.
This must be mistake because the
great success of the Shaker Extract

most solely to the fact that it is made
to cure one single disease, namely, in
digestion, for which it is a certain
remedy. The aching head, consti-
pated bowels, causing languor and fa-
tigue, vanish as soon as this remedy is
used. The Shaker Tar Capsules cure
coughs.

I have been afflicted with catarrh
for twenty years. 1t became chronic,
and there was a constant dropping Of
mucous matter from the roof Of my
mouth. It extended to my throat,
causing hoarseness and great difficulty
in speaking, Indeed for years was
not able to speak more than thirty
minutes, and often this with great

lost the sense Of hearing in the left

has ceased and my voice and hearing
