so they won't hurt her quite so much,

side, for you will be Immediately
knocked flat by the collision, but in
stead prepare yourself for short run
with the horse. Measure with your
eye the d stance, and start for the run
while he is yet some way otf-perhaps
ten feet in the case of far to medium
runaways. You may depend upon his
keeping straight line, for n really
frightened horse is half blind and
would not yeer for steam engine. He
will go straight ahead until he smashes
into something. SO do You get close
to the line on which he is rushing,
and, rs he passes you, grab the reins
near the saddle. Gather the reins
firmly, and then, leaning backward as
You run, give them powerful yank.
You may be able to brace yourself
somewhat rs you give the yank, half
sliding on your feet. The strong jerk
on the bit tells the horse that he again
has master, and prepares him for the
final struggle. A step or two forward
after the first yank, do it again. This
is the finishing stroke. 1t never fails
when given by determined man. The
horse is on its launches. Keep q firm
pull on the reins till You grasp the
horse by the nostrils, and hold him so
till he is paciiied."

; FRANK PRoUTT, of Chicago, disciple
of Christian science, has a scheme
whereby he purposes to colonize 5000
families OF 10000 people somewhere in
the West, where land en- b, had
cheaply, and found city which shall
be different from any other city the
world has ever seen. Each family will
take up 100 acres of Government land
and divide the real estate, forest, min
eral, and natural wealth among them.
The city. he thinks, will at once be
worth S15,000,0O0. Tho land around
the city will be worth $40 an acre or
$4,000, 600, and the common wealth of
the community will be $24, 900, 900, or
about 81 900 to each family. Settling
land in corporation, says Mr.. Proutt,
sis tcn-fold cheaper than settling it in
dividually. A city can be built for
S3,000,000, and the principal necessaries
of life can be manufactured for 80. 900
people, provided all work is done by CO.
operation. ] propose the issuing of in.
erest-bcaring bonds to the members
of the cooperative society first, and
outside stockholders second, with the
1914 900, 600 real estate as security. The
new city should be on high ground,
where pure air can be obtained. This
will also afford good drainage. Side
walks we want covered to avoid rain,
mud, excessive heat in summer and
snow and ice in winter. One bakery
would do all the baking, an. orchestra
could be maintained at a cost to each
anhabitant of not more than 81 year;
amusements would be under the gen
eral care of the community, and no
person would be pu! to work under.2l
years of age" Mr.. Prou.. is en,hu-
siastic regarding the scheme and will
endeavor to put it into operation. He
says that he has strong hopes of sue
