Learning to Ride on Horseback.

Speaking of lady riders, the riding master
gave some surprising information. "You
may laugh about it," he said, "but fear
causes ladies TO learn riding quicker than
men, although most OF the latter are just
as much afraid as the girls. The men will
stiffen up so as TO have what they term a
good hold on the horse, and, being stronger
than ladies, they keep their awkward posi-
ton through five, six or more lessons The
ladies, as a rule, give way quicker, and as
soon as they do the teacher has chance to
teach tho proper balance This Is not at all
to be COMPOUNDED with the ability to keep
the seat. The rider must learn by practice
and experience to keep the body in easy,

movement OF the horse may be. This is the
first thing to be taught

WHITLEY AND rAs ELEPHANT.

London Cor. Pioneer Prsssl
I do not know whether you have ever
heard the story of Whiteley and the ele.
plant II not, it Is worth hearing A few
years ago two gentlemen at their club In
in Pail Mall were discussing the subject OF
aWhiteley's," when one asserted that "you
can buy anything at Whiteley's" The
other club man seemed to doubt the state
ment, whereupon the first speaker offered to
bet 10 guineas that his friend could not
mention anything which whiteley would
not promptly deliver to him.
The wagspAwas as promptly taken. AMI
the two gentlemen jumps1 into hanson
and proceed to "Whiteley's" There de-
mand was made for peculiar species Of ele-
plant, rare variety sslj ON seen in Eu-
rope. Whiteley accepted the commission
and asked IL at should DO sent home" Tue
would be purchaser Tor more likely would
not-be purchaser) gave his address and de-
parted bearing with him Mr. Whiteley's
suave assurances that the "aniinile' should
be on hand the next morning at the gentle
mans London residence. On looking out Of
his window the next morning, as he was
about sitting down to breakfast, the worthy
club man was astonishei at seeing q hugo
elephant, conducted by the regulation ORR
entail driver, and followed by a great crowd
Of street Arabs, i,ootblacks aud tramps
coolly marching up to his front door
The elephant buyer was satisfied He didn't
want too much elephant only elephant
enough. Not having any convenientspot In
which to stow away 50 bulky household
pet, he hastenei away to "Whiteley'sp and
begged to be released from his bar gain,
which was promptly done upon his payment
of the necessary expenses and something to
boot His friend won the wager, but 1t
subsequently leaked out that Whiteley had
somehow been initiated into the secret Of
the conversation and wager, and had hired
the big elephant for "this occasion only"

The Smoking Nuisance.

The time was in the memory of MANY
living, that almost every man was to-
bacco chewer. Smoking was not much
INDUCED in, except by a few men and
women in the back neighborhoods of
new country. Fifty years ago cigar
smoking was scarcely known. but TWEEN
ty years have seen rapid increase in it.
especially with young men AMI boys
To the traveller who is not Il smoker,
there is scarcely any place of escape
from this all prevailing nuisance. In
many Il railroad depot where passengers
are obliged to wait, and even where
women have separate room, and
placard is posted up mo smoking in
this room" the rule is not enforced. /
have seen postoffice-rooms blue with to.
bacco smoke when ladies were waiting
the distribution of the mail, and to
make the off.nSe still worse, hoodlum
boys and would,be young men filled the
confined room with the stencil of vile
cigarettes. The smoker puffs away in
others faces with no sense of decencV,
bent only on gratifying a vtiatel taste.
whoever it sickens OF oifends 1t is as
plain n crime to poison the air we must
breathe, as to poison the water we
must drink. If tobacco chewer
should spit in the water we must drink,
even the smoker would turn upon him
with loathing. How much better is it
for 4 smoker to stand close to me, and
puff the fumes of his odious cigar in my
face! Railroad companies now provide
smoking-car, where smokers can puff
away to their hearts content, while
others are free from the annoyance.
When was u boy. an old man told
me that "man was the meanest of all
animals and so thought a few weeks
ago, when | went into depot of a
snow-block railroad, and found that a
crowd of men filled both rooms with
smoke, l0hiie ladies had 10 90 outside IN
The cold 10 get breath OF pure air! When
the station agent was requested to abate
the nuisance of smoking and profane-
ness, he confessed himself not equal to
the task. He had cigar In his own
mouth The expense of tobacco in al
most every town is well-nigh sufficient
10 support the schools aud churches. As
hard as the times are to the laborng
class. they do not make them easier by
diminishing their allowance for tobacco
or whisky. They grunlble at the hard
times, and strike for higher wages; but
if they would strike at the slavery of
appetite for this miserable indulgence,
their times would very soon improve,
and radical reform with economy
would soon give them homes of prosper
ity and plenty.
