twill be found that the horses which
have steady and constant work are the
zones which stand the hot weather the
tbesI. Spasmodic work is worse on horses
in SPINNER than in winter, although it is
hard enough on them at any season Of,
the year. A team that is in the pasture
field one day and i'll the pillow or on the
road the next will be found soft and I'M
able to withstand the harder, labor as
well as if given something to.sd do every
day. The idea of resting mp horses is,
often an erroneous one, and generally
works more injury than it does good. IS
lay-off of few days from hard word
does horse but little good. The best
way to recuperate jaded animal is tos
tighten the work little each day 1t is
much better than to keep it entirely from
work for awhile and then start il. to do
as much work each day as usual. The
most enduring horses are thOse.which are
kept constantly moving, never overtaxed
and given good care while at work.

While mutton prices have not been
high this season, there has been enough
of discrimination in favor of the best to
Yindicate the policy of catering to the
wants of those who are able and willing
to pay. Those who market the lowest
grades of mutton are always uncertain
what they are gong to get out oft but
he who knows that lie has something that
will be sought for has comparative as
surance of a safe outcome. This is dem
onstrated over and over again with such
frequency that it might be set down as
mutton market axiom.

FUSSING OVER TRIPLES.
The Two Venerable Clersymcn Who
QuarreIed at Chess.


The late Bishop PinlIney, that amiable
Episcopal churchman who was known pret-
ty well over the country, was = most de-
voted and enthusiastic chess-plsyer, says
the Philadelphia Telegraph He would sit
up all night at the game il not interrupted.
His reputation for charity and amiability
is well known in church circles. He was
regarded as the most amiable of men whose
profession is meekuess But there WAS one
man, a minister of his own church, with
whom he could not play chess without quar-
reling Yet this man was one Of the best
chess players in his diocese, and the rivalry
between them was constantly bringing
them face to face across the board One
night there was an assemblage of Episcopal
clergy at the Bishops house. Awcd by the
presence of the Bishop, the younger men
were on their best behavior. and the even
ing was passing off as monotonously as the
most orthodox could desire. Some one pro-
posed chess. In few minutes they were
paired Off, the Bishop being pitted against
his chief rival However enthusiastic the
restof the company may have got, they were
mild and polite in their disputstions ont Of
respect for the Bishop.
Presently in one corner Of the room was
heard the Bishops voice:
'You touched it, sir; you must movcr'
"But L did not" replied his opponent
"You did" insisted the Bishop.
Il say did notr'
Il say you didr'
81 must enphaticauy deny it, sir"
At each contradiction the voices grew
louder. The men were glaring at each
other across the squares, and the Bishops
face was red with anger.
'If, sir, that is the way you plsy, sir,
am doner be cried, and the chessmen
ratified on the floor. HIS ecclesiasiic oppo-
nent gathered them up aud put them in the
fire. For few minutes they glared at
each other, and the clergy assembled looked
OF in horror. Suddenly the absurdity Of
the situation struck them both. The Bishop
burst out laughing at the childishuess Of
their quarrel, and their hands came to-
