Relf, who had always remembered it as
something diabolical, streaked with
sweat and coal dust, noticed that it was
clean and brown and eager almost as

Burns talked on and on, but Reif had
ceased to hear the words, only the earn
est tones of the mans voice came to him.
Under its influence he was seeing his
own praiseworthy intentions in an en-
tirely new light. He realized that he had

politan beggar that are tortured into
hideous shapes in infancy. Exactly why
he was doing this he didn't know. Oh.
viously it was not for the mans own
good. Perhap, it was for the good OF
the public. Then he reflected that this
was "rot," as abstractly he did not in
the least care for the good Of the public,
and at any rate an honest life was of in
tinitely more good to the world than any
number OF ignominious deaths. Was it
thirst for revenge2 Was it merely to
satisfy prejudice2 He thought of these
and many other things, with his eyes
fixed on the black smoke that rolled from
the tunnels, and, trailing close to the

Teaching Horse to Fire a Pistol.
To teach a horse to fire pistol is a
long and difficult piece of work.
First, l teach him to hold small,
fiat piece of soft pine wood, about
half an inch thick, in his mouth, or.
rather, between his front teeth. AT
first he will spit it out. l put 1t
back again carefully, without hurting
him. Finally he will relax his grip
TO allow the stick to pass in easily
between his teeth. After a while hoi
will shut his teeth and hold on to 1t.
Then l let go of it. II he drops 1t,
1 pick it up and gently replace 1t.
