COwbovs and Ponies.

The old-time idea that he was the best
cowboy who returned from hunt with
his horses the poorest and their backs the
most extensively bruised and skinned has /
exploded, says the St0ccmdn, OF Miles /
CITY and stockmen now want men who /
can take care of horses as well as ride
them hard when necessary. There was
time when a cowboy thought it dis
grace to return from a months work
with his string of horses in condition
fit to be used without rest, whether he
had had any particularly hard work TO
/ do OF not; hence he made it a point to
| ride hard, regardless Of the necessity OF
/ doing so. If relieved from guard to go
to dinner he must go at full speed to
camp and jerk his horse up suddenly
while on a dead run when he reached
the camp. He did the same when be
returned from camp to the herd or from
one place to another. But that time is
past, and the demand is now for men
who can ride hacd when necessary and
at other times favor their horses and
keep them in condition to do good work
when there is a rush About the easiest
way for cowboy to get discharged In
this country is to display well-develop-
ed habit of dashing his horse about un-

is as it should be, for, not considering
the humane side of the question, tn

Rats as Pets.

The rat is not incapable of dOciljty.
Incidents of the training and domesti-
eating OF rats are not rare, but the ami
NAL does not POSSESS the qualities desir-
able in a pet. James II. Beard, the ami
NAL painter has tanned several, which
hf has used at various times in different
pictures.
''In the ante-fIe days" says Captain
John Stafford, BEARD had studio n
Crosby's Opera House. One night a fine
specimen of rathood was caught at the
Freamont House. Beard adopted it,
and eventually it became so tame that
/ il would follow him about like puppy.
I The artist converted this lat into a
model, and painted him in some forty
/ different pictures"
/ George Hansen, sailor who has sew
eral times circumnavigated the globe
and who is now sailing on the lakes, re
/ lates the story of a solitary rat discover
ed on a merchantum bound for Chill
from Liverpool. The rat was unaccom
panied by others of his species, and
soon became very friendly with the crew
1t ate and slept with the men, and play
ed about like a kitten. It never wen
ashore, died on shipboard, and was bul
led at sea.

CHAPTER Xxx.
THE AP ARITIOls.

The steam yacht went out li.tle
before noon. Her passengers were the
Doctor, Pierre and Maria. who had come
to take care of Madame Ba;horv, in tho
event of its being impossible to take her
back immediately from Carthage to
Antekirtta
There is no need to say much about
what Pierre felt when he knew he WAS
ON his way TO meet n S mother. But
why had Borik hurried her Off so pre-
cipitately from Ragusa - this out-of-
the-way spot in Tuuis In what state
of misery would they he found; To
the anxieties Pierre coniided to her.
Maria did not cease to respond with
words o. aympatiy and hope.
The Ferrato was driven ut her utmost
speed. and attained mean of nj least
fifteen knots. The distance between
the Gulf of Sidra and Cape Bon, the
northeast point of Tunis is about 600
miles from Cape Bon to La Goulette
which is the port of Tunis, is only about
an hour and half's run for steamer
In thirty hours, therefore, barring ACCT
dents. the Ferrato would reach her
destination.
The sea was smooth outside the gulf,
but the wind blew from the northwest.
but with no signs of increasing. Cap
tain Kostrik steered for a little below
Cape Bon, so as to get the shelter of the
land, in case the breeze freshened. He
did not therefore, sight the island Of
Pantellaria, halfway between Cape Bon
and Malta, for he intended to round the
cape as closely rs possible.
As it bends out of the Gulf of Sidra,
the shore line is much cut into towards
the west and describes wide curve.
This is the coast of Tripoli running up
to the Gulf of Gabes, between the Island
OF Dscherba and the town of Sfax then
the line trends little to the east towards
Cape Dinias, TO form the Gulf Of Ham,
mamet; and it thence develops south
and north to Cape Bon.

The Bell of Justice.

Ii is a beautiful story that in one of
the cities of Italy the King caused Il
bell to be hung in tower of one of
the public squares, and called it the
"bell of Justice and commanded that
any one who had been wronged should
go and ring the bell. and so call the
Magistrate Of the city. and ask and re-
ceive justice. And when, in the course
of time. the lower end of the bell rope
rotted away wild vine was tied to it
to lengthen it; and one day an old and
starving horse that had been abandon
ed by its owner and turned out TO die
wandered into the tower and trying to
eat the vine rang the bell. And the
magistrate of the city coming to see
who had rang the bell, found this old
and starving horse. and caused the
owner Of the horse, in whose services
he had toiled and had been worn out, 10
be summoned before him. and decreed
that rs this poor horse had ,rung the
bell of justice. he should have justice,
and that during the remainder of the
horses life his owner should provide
for him proper food and drink and sta

Only Wanted Employment.

A young man solicited clerical en-
ployment of wealthy merchant He
said money was no object; he would be
satisfied with merely nominal COM
pensation. Curiosity got the better of
the merchant, and he enquired what
sum the young man considered a
merely nominal compensation. The
youth said, that in order TO prove his
sincerity, and earnest desire TO get
honorable and honest work. he would
engage himself, provided he could be
assured OF a place for at least three
years, to work for one cent the first
month, this sum and its product 10 be
doubled every month, for three years.
The merchant agreed TO the pro-
position. arguing that if the se-v-
ices were worthless. the OUTLAY for
wages would be comparatively nothing.
The young man did not bother TO draw
his wages the first year, but when
twelve months had elapsed, the book
keeper of the firm had the curiosity to
figure up what the sum total would
amount TO, in three years. and was
surprised TO find that ii nctted S5j2,
534, 2j3. 6j. The merchant was appris-
ed of the result of the mathematical
calculation. and the smart young man,
who wasn't particular about his wages,
but only wanted employment. was sent
for. and Il compromise was agreed upon.
