Two Kinds Of Horse Treatment.

being crected.I saw large, heavy wagon
loaded with brick, which the driver was
vainIy trying to back up where the
workmen we're waiting for them The
horses struggled the driver dashed them.
and the other men helped push the
wheels. The driver became very violent,
swore at the horses. one of which seemed
balky. and both exhausted Faster fell
the blows. but still they reared and
plunged to no purpose Finally happy
thought seemed to occur to the driver
He threw down the reins. descended from
his scat, went up to one horse and
then 10 the other, patted their heads,
stroksd their neeks, aud fiaaiiy went to
his dinner pail in the box Of the wagon,
got OUT = big red apple. cut it in two
with his knife, gave half to each horse.
waited patiently until they had eaten 1t,
and then mounted his box again and
picked up the reirs. One horse put his
head over the Others neck, as much as
to say. Lets see if We can do II" and
when the driver frightened up the reins
and spoke to them. with one tremendous
push the horses sent the wagon back TO
the desired spot. If the teamsiers tn our
CITY could have seen these horses, no
one would ever think Of lifting whip to
his team again. IL was ltsson to US
