carriages for very decrepitude. The
paint is piled deep in the wrinkles and
the color makes the venerable, if not
venerated, creatures ghostly in the sight
of the lOungers who stroll along the

AS for gowns, any gathering VIII
startle you with the colors of its raiment
and the cut of it. But the color is the
worst offender. The English like high
color; there is no denying the fact. The
middle classes are depiorable in their
lack of taste; the lower classes out
rageously violate every canon of it; only
the upper class women Of the new gen.
Grafton are well dressed.
English feet are not as large as fancy
and the caricaturiSts have painted them
or as the English bootmakers compel
them to appear. The trouble is more
with the native bootmaker than with
the native foot. The dainty American
foot will look twice its size in an En-
glish boot. The Englishman does not
understand the rudiments Of the art of
making neat boot or shoe. He must
have the thing not only large. but
clumsy. In this merry month of June,
when London entertainS thousands of
American visitors, it is one.of my de-
lights to watch the we'll shod feet from
oversee, whether they are the feet of
men or women. An English bootmaker
will magnify any foot. His smallest
shoe is clumsy. The best boots and shoes
in the world are made in the United
States. whether for wear, for style or
for individual fitness.

Teaching PATIENCE.

"In the spring of 1S76,' says writer
in the CongregatiOnalist, 81 purchased
horse that had the fault of Impatience
to an unusual degree. Soimpatient was
he that just as soon as he felt the mo-
ton of a person attempting to get into
the carriage he would start, and if not
allowed to go he would rear back so vi
Olently as in several instances to break
something about the carriage. After
trying various methods to cure him, l
adopted the following plan when there
were others beside myself to get in.
Springing into the carriage l would
take the reins, and when he started l
would drive him around in as small
circle as possible without cramping the
carriage, and bring him back to the
same place again. | would then talk to
him soothingly, and if he would not
stand quiet for all to get in would take
another turn and try again, sometimes
going through this operation three or
four times before all would get in. lie
soon got tired of this, and in a short
time was so completely cured that he
would stand quietly for all the family
TO get in. l think whipping would have
made him worse"

GHOST PARALYZED HIM.
A Weird and Wondrous Tale of a
Spook With Very Cold Fingers.
st. Louis Globe-Democrat.

st. Louis Globe-Democrat.
Mr.. and Mrs. Michael Shea, of st. Jo-
seph, Mo-, are having series of strange
experiences with ghost. Friday night
Mrs. Shea was awakened by sense of
suffocation. The night was very dark,
but her eyes could distinguish an appar-
ition standing by her bedside. She
tried to scream, but could not. The
ghost laid its cold, clammy hands upon
her arm and then disappeared. The
next morning, to her surprise, she could
not raise her arm, the one the ghost had
touched, from her side. 1t was as if
paralyzed. That night Mr.. Shea was
awakened by cold hand being laid on
his forehead. He awoke with start,
and noticed the strange phantom stand
ing by his side.
Mr.. Shea was speeches. with fright.
The ghost continued to rub its icy hands
upon the head of Mr.. Shea, and finally
touched him on both arms and disap-
peared. Great beads of perspiration
stood out on the forehead of Mr.. Shea.
He tried to speak to his wife, but could
make no sound. He thought how his
wife had been affected, and tried to
raise his arms. To his horror, he could
not do so. The next morning his arms
were still paralyZ ed, and he ceased to
laugh at his wife, nor was he able to
work that day.

SADDLE HORSES,
Proposed Standard of Qualifica-
tiOns for Eligibility.

tions for Eligibility.
A few words relative to the standard
saddle horse. In. the first gait he should
be able to walk a full mile on a good
road in twelve minutes, fox trot a full
mile on good road in seven minutes,
running walk full mile on a good road
in six minutes, canter or lope full mile
on good road in five to eight minutes,
pace or rack mile in three to four min
uteS, go good open trOt i'll harness in
from four to five minutes. If he has
some good strains of thorough blood. or
.is crossed on good trotting or pacing
strains, it will add luster to his per-
Torrance. Now, don't jump at the con-
clusiOn that horse, to be eligible, must
have all these qualities. Simply have
rules No. l, 2, 3, 4, and 6.
A horse with all these gaIts himself,
or had one or more colts with them, pro-
vided he had four himself, should be
eligible under rule first; mare or horse
with four of these gaitS and time should
be eligible under rule second; horse
or mare that has produced two or more
colts with same number aud time, under
same rule; a horse with three saddle
gaits, with this time, under rule third,
and horse or mare that has produced
two or more with same number and
time, provided they have done the same,
under same rule; horse or mare with
two saddle gaits with this time, under
rule fourth, and so on down the line to
number six.
Let this apply to mares and stations,
and for geldIngs you could moderate
the rules some, say gelding with five
saddle gaits and the standard time,
under rule first, and six, down to num-
Der three. This rule, in our opinion,
will put the farmers to thinking and
breeding for what they need every day.
1t is understood that the horse should
have fair size. uniform shape, good style
and nerve, and especially the stations
aud mares should have good color and
heavy name and tail, as no one wants a
pumpkin-colored or fnger-tailed horse.

HANDLING COLTS.
Some Pointed Expressions ON the
Subject.


Subject.
An experienced hOrSeman saws: Fear
of spelling is the great bugbear ra ised
by certain men who put off all thought
of education until the colt is four or
five years old. Fear of weak constitu-
tions is the reason given for letting the
colts warm themselves on manure piles
and live on straw, because of which
hundreds of colts go to pasture in the
spring i'll poor condition, and without
having made any growth. Is it any
wonder that such men complain that
horse breeding doesn't pay? The first
year of the colts life should be fruitful
of instruction. The colt will learn more
easily when six months old than when
a year old. 1t can also be controlled
more easily. Hence 1t is wise to handle
the colt early.
Its early training should not stop with
breaking to halter. 1t should be handled
until any part of its body or limbs can
be rubbed: until it is accustomed to the
bride, and until it will drive as well as
lead. To teachit all this and to keep it
from forgetting what it has learned is a
little trouble, but if the colt is of good
stock the trouble is well paid for. Prac-
tice a little common sense with the
young stock and notice the high rate of
interest coming back to you as the re-
suit of the investment. Instead of cry
ing out against an industry the wheels
of which we have been trigging by poor
practices, let us either get tout Of the way
or turn to better methods.

Curing Bad Habits.

1t is remarked that when horse
begins to learn bad habit and is of a
self-wiIled disposition, so that he will
fight to continue his error, fully aware
that he is opposing your wishes, insist
ing on not doing what he could do
without pain. he must be met with pun
ishment and overpowered, and never
again given up until taught and con-
WINGED that resistance is useless, and
that instead of having his own way that
of the driver must be complied with.
Once beaten and effectually convinced,
the trouble is over. 1t is very essential
in handling colts to guard from the very
first against their acquiring a knowledge
of bad habits, for confirmed bad habits
in colts must be dealt with in precisely
the same manner as il the case of
mature animals"
