She was the most beautiful mare

large for her head, nostTil thin and ex-
handed. the throat of game cock, tho
hair of her name and tail so fine and
soft that the most beautiful woman
might have been proud Of such texture,
and her skin so thin and soft that the
thorn bushes through which l rode her
geed to tear it; and after many of my
runs through the jungle have had her,
bleeding from the thorns, looking as il
she had been practiccd upon with a light
sabre. She was what you would con-
slider in England pony, IA hands IL
inches high; but she was as broad almost
as a draw horse. and her tail was set up
so high that as she moved about her
loose box You could, STOPPING, walk be-
tween it and the ground. Ter feet were
black and hard, and the tendons below
her hooks and knees were like harp
strings. Add to this that her head was
so lean that you might have boiled it
without obtaining any flesh from 1t, and

PHoNoGRAPHic DOLLS.

They Sing "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little
Star, and Other Pretty Tunes.
Fifty years ago the little girl played
with a rag doll. Then came wooden
dolls, then wax and china, and finally
PAPER mache and bisque. Then the
dolls were taught to creep, and even
walk, and when they progressed so far
as to say mamma" and ''papa'' in
squeaky voices. the little girl no doubt
thought the acme of doll culture had
been reached. But within very short
time dolls have been produced that
actually recite "Mother Goose's Mel
odies," and other standard poems,
such as Twinkle, Twinkle, Little
Star"
How is the wonderful effect pro-
duced? Easily enough, by means of
the monograph.
| The dolls are about one foot in
height. The photographic apparatus,
occupying the body of the doll, has a
space perhaps two or three inches in
diameter in which to operate. The
dolls are brought from Europe, but the
talking machinery is manufactured
and inserted here.
AS each doll reaches the proper azs
| it is turned over to a governess spe-
cially employed to train it's phono-
graphic ideas how to shoot. This lady
| gives the most careful attention to the
education of the dolls: She recognizes
| the value of Individual training, i'm
parts separate instruction to every
doll. Knowing the great initiative
power of little folks, she is particular
to modulate her voice to just the
pitch which she wishes theirs to as
sumo.
The doll pupils are required to re-
peat her words until every accent and
infection is satisfactory. The dolls
have such wonderful memories that
not only do they repeat their lessons
with accuracy, but they even, .'hold
the voice.
This faculty Of theirs compelled the
employment of lady Instructors. The
deep, gruff voice of a man reciting
'Twlnkle, Twinkle, Little STAR had
rather a gruesome effect when issuing
from the lips OF rosy-cheeked little
dollie.
Their voices are strong and their ar.
ticulation so clear that their converse.
ton can be heard up one flight oil
stairs with distinctness- somewhat
more perfectly, in fact, than when
close by, as there is little z-r-r-r OF
the machinery which is not noticed at

the old prejudice against going to sea

first time | ever put to sea on Friday
we were near having one of the great
est tragedies that the United States
navy has experienced in fifty years It
was while was serving on the Oneida
that we left Norfolk, Va, that day,
and we were hardly at sea when a fire
broke out close to the magazine, and,
before it could be extinguished, the
powder bans were so hot that we ex-
pected the ship to blow up at almost
any moment. No, sir, if I can get

certainly wait over until Saturday. y

A very pretty story is related OF
the Crown Princess of Denmark.
Prince Waldemar and Princess Marie
are good skaters, and one afternoon
when, after a long run across the ice,
they sat down to rest, they noticed a
little boy who was vainly trying to put
his skates on. On seeing the royal
couple he took off his hat and said:
''Oh, dear Princess Marie, can you not
help me to put my skates onP' The
royal lady smiled, knelt down on the
ice and firmly fastened the straps
around the boys ankles.

An Old Time Partisan,


1t is easy to recall to mind his familiar
figure as he sits, during winter evenings,
in his tavorite corner.
In his easy chair, with pipe in hand and
his silver-rimmed "specs" pushed back
until they lind soft resting place on his
beloved snow-white head, with eyes spark
Ling and his face beaming with pleasure as
ne calls back old memories of days long
gone by, he IS likely to talk something after
this fashion:
tits long time since was boy. Alb,
out that was many years ago. Sixty lone
years have gone and the good Lord knows
they were short enough. I was then as
spruce: and pert;as any chap Whereabouts.
SSOh, but we boys were boys! Things
have changed a heap since those DAYS.
Boys then didn't take much stock in stylish
clothes and they didn't carry canes like
they do'now. Clothes and canes didn't cut
much caper then, isut it was good hard
sense and work.
1.-THE boy who could do the biggest days
werk-could cut the most wood, split the
most rails, plow the most corn, was the
most envied for he was sure to have the
sweetest and best lookin' gal at the sslngln'
school or apple peelin'.'
Il tell you those were good old times.
I didn't think any thing of going thirty
mile or more to see your grandmother,
and we didn't have very good roads either,
but generally had ito follow some old Indian
trail.
sTalkin' about sickness then, there was
no sickness like now. If we had cold, a
pain, or any thing, there was the best med
lcine in the world found in any log cabin
home you came across. Why, I remember
that my old grandmother, God bless her
soul, she's been dead these fifty years or
more, could make the best home made
medicine for miles around Her ssarsapa-
rilly' couldn't be beat. Come to think I
ust read in the paper about somebody who
s making this same old log cabin medicine,
under the name of warmers Log Cabin
1T does seem splendid to think that you
can buy those good old home cures at the
druggists nowadays.
sAebby you think people were not
healthy in those days, but tell you that it
was mighty seldom anybody was sick long
when they had such good old grand
mother medicine SO handy.
ssPeople used to be stronger, healthier,
and they lived longer, when I was boy.''
