about it, that you did your best to
stop your beast; for | would rather
stretch the truth little than to
have such good jockey as you are
suffer"
This had been spoken so loudly
that the deacons had heard every
word and the poor parson was be-
wildered; but he soon came to HIM
self, and with flashing eye, he
cried:
williams, what mean you?
Why do We thus"
Hold on" interrupted one of
the party, and as he spoke, the rest
OF the racingmen had all mounted
their horses, ''hold on a moment,
parson. We are willing to allow
you to carry off the palm, but we
won't stand your abuse. When we
heard that you had determined to
try if your horse would not beat us
all, we agreed among ourselves that
il you came we would let you in.
We have done so, and you have
won the race in two-mile heat.
Now let that satisfy you. BY the
hockey, but you did it well. When
you want to try it again, just send
us word, and we'll be ready for you.
Goodbye
As the wretch thus spoke, he
turned his horses head, and before
the astounded preacher could utter
a word, the whole party had ridden
away out of hearing. 1t was some
time before one of the churchmen
could speak. They knew not what
to say. Why should their minis
ter's horse have joined in the race
without some permission from his
master? They knew how much he
set by the animal, and at length
they shook their heads with doubt.
Its very strange" said one.
Very" answered a second.
Remarkable" suggested third.
"On my soul, brethern,' spoke
Ridewell, II can't make it out"
The brethren looked at each
other, and the deacons shook their
heads in very solemn and impress
sive manner.
So the party rode back to the
clergyman's house, but none of
the brethren would enter, nor
would they stop at all. Before
Monday had drawn to close, it
was generally known that Parson
Ridewell raced his horse OH the
Sabbath, and meeting of the
church was appointed for Thurs
day.
Poor Ridewell was almost crazy
with vexation; but before Thurs
day came, Pompey found out how
matters stood, and he assured his
master that he would clear the
matter up; and after days search,
he discovered the astounding fact
that some of the wicked men had
been in the habit of stealing Old
Morgan from the pasture, and rae
ing him on the Sabbath afternoon
Pompey found out this much-but
he could not find who did it!
AS soon as this became known tC
the church, the members conferred
together, and they soon concluded
that under such circumstances q
high nettled horse would be apt tC
run away with his rider when he
found himself directly upon the
track.
So Ridewell was cleared, but il
was long while before be got over
the blow, for many were the wicked
wags who delighted to poster him
by offering to ride race" with him
to ''bet on his head, or to put him
against the world on a race" But
Ridewell grew older, his heart grew
warmer, and finally he could laugh
with right good will when he spoke
Of his unexpected race. Be sure
there was no more Sabbath racing

Two words answer energy aud health.
Any man Of indomiteble energy and per-

All that is the rub-uhO is treV
Men have the energy and ability to sue

which alone make men succeed.
They fee. langud even weak at times
and lack snap and ambition they know
they have the necessary ability, but their
energies need rousiug. In some cases the
