stations, an honor he held for eight years.
Not long ago the stallion Nelson trotted a
mile in 2:l034l, and at present leads the
world. Will the next fifteen years develop
a stallion that can trot in 2:O64?
Smuggler was foaled in 1866 at Column
bus, O. His ancestors were not of unusu-
ally good blood, and he attracted no atten-
ton until 1870, when he developed into a
three minute PAGER. His owner, Josiah
Morgan, then placed him in the hands Of
Charles Marvin, who broke him of pacing
by shoeing his %forefeet with two pound
shoes, and in 1872 Smuggler could trot a
mile in 2:l9ls. Robert Bonner refused to
buy him, but Col. II. 5. Russell, of Milton,
Mass, was SO smitten with the horses
merits that he paid $50. 600 for him. Snug.

in July, 1876, he defeated the great Gold
smith Maid by trotting in 2:1GA,. In Au.
gust he was defeated by Goldsmith Maid
at Hartford, but established his great rec
ord of 2:15'4. In 1878 Smuggler broke
down and retired to the stud, but he was
not a successful sire. At the time of his
death Smugglcr was owned by +. G. Bah

Coming around again to the question
with which this article began the reader is
asked, What would you do with $1,000 a
year?' Or, indeed, with any sum included
by the limits Of what is called wealth.
Would you pile it up and leave it to be
wrangled over in court? Would you hoard
it, bury it and worship it as q god. or
would you, like the pretty pedestrian now
winning her way toward the rising SUM-,
make it the means to a praiseworthy end
the ladder by which to climb to the Do
Something and BE Something of life?
But, after all, what one thinks he would
do with money md what he really would
do with it are widely different things.
