some twenty acres or so of mountain pas

Presently she leaves grazing and comes
cautiously down a steep bank to drink
from a clear little stream that runs
through the ravine, on the edge of which
my summer eyrie is perched. Leaning
from the window l call her softly by

in her dark eyes and forward pricked ears,
and seeing me gives a gentle WINNER of
greeting. Then. with peculiar little toss
of the head-half-quizzical, half-loving and
wholly characterisuc-she goes saunter-
ing along an upland pathway to where a
clump OF fragrant laurels afford pleasant
shelter from the early afternoon sunshine.

OF the cuts Is entitled slaughter the Pigs
ana the Goats" Some cuts represent the
slaughter going on and others inclte the
people TO rise against the "hOG sect" as
they call us. The pictures state that the
Christian religion is worship of lust and
the pigs and goats are painted with green
heads, which in Chinese typifies this. Many
Oh the common people believe the stories.

mems. they receive full credit.
In the blue books of China, for instance,
you ma how the foreigners scoop out the
eyes OF Cinnamon for medicine or to grind
up to make photographic materials. The
Chlnese have eyes which are invariably
olack. They think that their eyes have
inherent qualities from ours, and that We
are always seeking to get them. In one of
these prints which l have two blood
thirsty Williams in foreign clothes are cut
ting out the eyes of dead Chinaman,
while another foreigner is glOating over a
saucer full of eyes which he has just cap
tured. The blue books of China say that
the Christians sbToud the dead that they

hind the superior knowledge of some
friend or dealer in whom they had conf
dence, but, while it is always best to have
the judgment of an expert before conclud-
ing a bargain, there is no reason in the
world why any man or woman should not
be able TO pass intelligent Judgment on a
horse before purchasing.
There are a few points that must be
borne in mind, but these may be as firmly
fixed in the brain of a woman as in that of
a man.
The best sort of horse for woman's
use is gelding. from Az to 1914 hands
high. A hand IS four inches, and horse
10 hands high, if we'll prOportioned, is the
very best size for lady's mount There
is superstition among horsemen that a
lady looks better on a large horse. This is
a matter which depends entirely upon
circumstances. The side-saddle is a
large and cumbersome affair. that only
looks well on a horse with what is
called "a good toTehand" - that is.
with a long neck and broad shoulders,
so that when the saddle is adjusted well to
the withers the rider does not have the ap-
pearance of sitting on the animals neck.
A sh0rt-legged horse with a good fore
hand is more comfortable mount than a
tall animal whose body is developed in
proportion TO his height. The latter is
apt to have too long a stride for comfort
under the side seat: if heavy he is apt to
prove unwieldy, and if light enough to
make the SidesaddIe good fit he is apt TO
look leggy and not uD to his work.
If the rider follows the new custom
among ladies of sitting astTde her mount
she looks well on much smaller animal

He was promoted for bravery, and came

years under the stars and stripes. Sew

He is fine organist and often plays for

gave swell social reception and the
colonel furnished the organ music. After
the wine had been flowing steadily for an
hour and the banquet had disappeared, a
veteran amused them all by walking on

LIZ Que all the horrors of the Buddhist he'll
are called TO bear upon them. A hog labeled
Jesus is being sawed in two by two devils,
ana Other devils are tormenting the foreign
ers. One picture shows how the foreign
DOCKS should be burned, and there is a
great FIRE, with Chinese coolies bringing
STACKS OF volumes and throwing them
into the ire. In the background are for
elgners tied to crosses and Cinnamon tor
mentlng them. On the ground lie other for
elgners, held by Chinese, while Celestials
pour down their Threats, through tunnels,
the vllest of Stops. This print is labeled
the beating OF the devils and the burning
of the books, and the Chinese characters
on the margins read: THE depraved re-
liglOn of the hog is propagated from for
eign lands. Its followers insult heaven
and eXtirpate ancestors. Ten thousand
arrows and thousand swords will not
eXpiate their crimes"
Another cartoon states that it is hateful
that the name of Jesus should descend to a
thousand generations, and it describes how
the believers should be treated as above.
1t states that all Chinese believers should
be forced TO drink Stops and TO de file the
picture of a cross placed before them.
Another shows how children are. mutilated
for the making of foreign medicines.
There are in ell thrty-two of these vile
sheets. They are each about twice the
size of sheet of commercial note and are
printed in half a dozen different colors.

standpoint, though it would be considered
very bad in any European country.

ON the lower classes Of the Chinese. They
despise US as nation, and they believe
all such reports as these. The missionaries
work among them under the greatest of
disadvan tages, and they really do a vast
deal of good. No one, however, can APP
preciate the awful difficulties they have to
to contend with, and the lies which
they have to refute at every step. If
