Horses Want Regular Work.

There are few horses that are not quiet
with regular work; there are very few
horses that are really quiet without it.
The strong impulse to take exercise which
nature has implanted in all young healthy
horses, almost oompels them to play, and
horse play is generally dangerous, and
often leads to the horse learning some.
thing, or getting into some mess that
makes him dangerous ever afterward.
Thousands of timid persons who would be
immensely benefited by riding on horse
back or driving themselves about. are pre-
vented from doing so because they are
frightened with horses too fresh and too
playful to be safe. We have known such
persons afraid to ride or drive their own
good tempered buC playful horses to go to
a livery stable and hire horses that have
been sold cheap to the stable keeper for
real vice, but which were kept safe and
sober by the excessively hard work of their
wretched lives. No cruel overwork is
