FEAR THAT LIFTS TIE HAIR.


Numerous References to This Peculiar Ef-
feet by ola Wri.er,.
When the teller Of panther story
wishes you TO understand that the hero
or victim was badly scared lie AYERS
that his hair rose, or raised" or "riz, ="
or stood on end, or lifted his hat, says
Forest and Stream.
The notion-if it be a notion-that
fright caused by panther or by some
thing else, lifts the hair is certainly an
old one and venerable for its antiquity
This hair on cnd' may be said to be
hoary with age.
job w., 1915 reads:
Fear came upon me, and trembling, which
made all my bones To shake. Then a spirit
passed before my face; the hair Of my flesh
stood up"
Does not Virgil make his hcro's hair
stand on end in that vox faucibus hpset
passage? Thus Conington's transla-
ton:
While thus in agony pressed
From house TO house the endless quest,
The TalC, sad s~oct q my wife
Confronts nc Lars, r lhan in life.
I stood a,r'llCd, Try hair erect,
And fear nay t1EgUCticd uttcrauces checked
We have Macbcth's testimony:
Why Go YiCll to that suggestion
Whose horril image doth unnx my hair
And make my seated heart knock at my ribs,
Against the use Of nature:
And says the ghost in Hamlet:
/ could tale unfold, whose ghtcst word
Would harrow up thy soul; f.e,zc thy young
blood;
Make thy two eyes, like stars, start from their
spheres:
Thy knoticd and combined locks TO part
And each particular hair to stand on end
Like quilts upon the fretful porcupine.
No doubt a thousand and one in
stances Of rising of hair might be cited
from literature, ancient and modern,
from the book Of job to this day
But docs fright raise the hair? The
scientific authorities assure us that the
hair-raising belief is a notion without
substantial basis in fact; but the au-
thors Of text hooks, presumably, have
never had an opportunity to note just
what does happcn toa mans hair when
he encounters " panther.

II was the custom at one time in Ven
ice, according TO the Boston Globe, to
gild the rolls Of bread and the oysters
on the supper table. The candles were
also coated with gold. We read of din
ncrs of state which lasted four hours.
In 1852 the Patriarch of Aquilcia
fctcd Ranuceio Farncse, the popc's
nephew, in his palace on the Giudecca.
The rooms were deckcd with cXtraor-
binary sumptuousness; cloth of gold,
paintings and Examinations adding to
Chc effect produced by the patriarch's
cooks.
Among the guests were twelve gen.
tlemcn in fancy marine costume of
green satin with red lining, wearing
caps of the same colors, and each ac-
companied by ladies dressed in white.
This rcpast also lasted four hours,
varied by music and the professional
entertainers of the day, 1t ended with
the cutting up of certain large pies,
from which live birds few out into the
room. The guests strove with each
ether TO catch those birds.
But, perhaps, the most expensive
ban quet ever given in Venice was that
to henry ILL.,, of France. He was feast
ed in the great hall of the Doge's palace,
and there were silver plates for three
thousand guests.
At another time the same monarch
was entertained at a sugar banquet; the
napkins, plates, knives, forks and even
the bread (so-callcd) were all of sugar.
The Venetians were nightly pleased
when Henry took his napkin in his
hands, and, to his surprise, found that
it broke to pieces.
At least one thousand two hundred
aud sixty different dishes were served,
and tAree hundred sugar eiligies were
distributed among the ladies.

to be appreciated, demands certain
intuition, much culture, study, acute
observation and judgment. "
In this the difficulty of agreeing on

an ideal. The world can agree on but
few ideals, and no sculptor or painter
ever portrayed in masterpiece a
horse that would not be severely
criticised az an ideal.
The question of the ideal may read
" extend from the type Of horse to
the proportions of type. A draught
horse and a race horse may each be
handsome and perfect in his way. II
may be said that the ideal horse is the
one that produces the most agreeable
impressions, and this rule may both
apply to the type of horse and to the
proportions of any type. AS far as
proportions go. a horse should in a
general way be well and handsomely
formed and have correct and beautiful
lines. There is a wide range for the
application of this rule, and many
horsemen will see beauty in adapta-
tion to needs which. others will not
consider.
A noted French writer on the horse
says: "What, then, are the qualities
which impress the laity-thatis to say,

made him famous. Two famous sires
brought to England, the Darley
Arabian and the Leedes Arabian, are
asserted to have had undoubted pedi-
grees extending back 1000 years, and
it has been commended that these two
were the only Arabian stations OF un-
doubted pure Arabian blood eyel
brought to England.
The thoroughbreds of to-day have
thus stain of the royal blood OF the
Arabian, Barb and Turk, mixed with
the .blcod of the English charger,
horses of all degrees of common blood,
horses with pedigrees and without, and
horses that have been fast and slow.
The pedigree of q horse thus becomes
of great significance, for .sblood win

study of pedigrees in which the
majority Of horsemen are fairly well

Arabian horse in greatly varying de-
grees. Salvador. shown in an accom-
panying cut, has these characteristic
in marked degree. The "Chabsn

King of Wurtemburg, and fairly

The Arabian type has undoubtedly
been conserved in. the thoroughbred,
by the training and work he has been
given through each generation and

He is slender and graceful. His most
noticeable characteristics are long,
small neck, delicate head, with rather
pointed nose, depth from withers to
chest, giving lung power; powerful
launches and comparative smallness OF
growth around the loins. He is built
for speed. His head is small and bony
and his muzzle delicate. His joints
are large, clean and bony. His bones
are rather small in size on the whole,
but they are very dense, and hence
strong and heavy. It is calculated by
Roger B. Upton that the bones OF an
Arabian horse 14t hands high will
weigh as much as those of an English
thoroughbred fifteen hands high. The
fore ribs of the Arabian are long and
