Senator Stanford on Early Trimming.

Senator Leland Stanford, proprietor OF tho
Palo Alto farm. Menlo Park, Gal, referring
to early training says: Il DO not remember a
single instance where an animal Of nAne was
injured by early work When break nown
has occurred it has invariably been after q
let up Let ups are very dangerous to young,
fast animals. as their bodies grow during the
let up without corresponding development Of
strength, and they are very liable 10 get too
much work when their exercise is renewed.
Nv aim is TO give the greatest possible
never allow it To reach tho period Of exhaus-
ton This is secured by short distance ex-
ercise. 1t is the supreme effort that de-
velops Ii colts aro never over workes,
they are always willing 10 try in
their exercise, having no apprehension that
they Will DO forced beyond their comfort
When young colt, having no fear Of being
over worked is brought out for exercise, his
eyes are bright and express the expectation
of having a good time" Col. r. = Strader,
proprietor of Elmorc Place farm, Lexington,
XIV, thus expresses himself on The subject Of
training: I'VE cannot obtain - stout and
serviccable animals by early training aud de
velopment as by waiting to Let them better
nature. More Youngsters are ruined here
than in any other state, for the following
reasons: First, we handle more 81 them Sec
ondly, generally there Is not enough care,
and the owners employ ordinary help because
it Is cheap, and they want too much speed for
too little money. The HorEman.

indicating strength OF will. She has n
light merry laugh that seems to fiji the
room, and has n peculiar way of throwing
herself back in her chair when she laughs
rs if she were determined TO enjoy herself
as much as possible. She wore n hand
some pin in her hair, gold bracelets, two
diamond rings on her fingers, and was at
tired in a neat blue dress which contrasted
well with the crimson lined chair IN which
she was seated She used TO write verses
when at boarding school between hours and
one day she sent some To n newspaper. 1t
was not until year afterwards that she
learned that her poem had been accepted.
She continued 10 write verses after this,
and finally tried her hand at story writing.
Miss Libbey generally takes her charac-
teTs from life. Miss Middleton is
Brooklyn girl who lives not very FAR from
Mss Iibbey's house. Her next novel will
be n story Of life in Baltimore, and Miss
Libbey expects 10 eclipse all her former
efforts. She cares little for society but is
a great reader and is fond Of travel
When asked what she thought of the
critics who had abused her, she said:
Il am glad TO have this opportunity OF
expressing nay views on the subject from
which have suffered keenly and in ST.
lence. Never, think in the annals Of his
tory has such rank injustice been shown
an author, ss has been shown me in the
abuse OF my novel, Miss Middletons
Lover by the critics. If they deceive RE
in one instance can we trust them AGAIN.
''Why l would as soon think OF putting
n scorpion into the hands OF young girl
as All immoral story.
But the public should discriminate
wisely between so-called sensational books
aud immoral ones. Books with pure,
clean. Sensational events running through
their chapters. are the well-s springs-the
only solace OF many lonely life-but
books whose plots hang on the pivot Of
evil passions are q curse to the com
munity.
