FOR RAINY SATURDAYS.
SugGostlona for Making Them Endurab
70 the Children 1t Home.

SugGo0tl0na for Making Them Endur1ble
70 tho Children 1t Home.
A rainy Saturday is day which most
mothers dread. Saturday is holiday,
and the children are prepared to be up
roariously gay, and if the rain prevents
them from amusing themselves out Of
doors they are apt to prove almost too
great . trial for the mother who has
not planned for just such IN emer-
gency.
In the first place It is wise. even on
. rainy day, to send the little ones out
for half an hour or 50. If they are
hardy in their constitutions and are
properly dressed no harm can come of
their airing, while harm frequently re-
suits from too close housing. II rub
bers and leggings are donned. and sem
sible little mackintoshes, the children
will be all the better for brisk walk
in the rain. When they return, the
state Of their clothing should be
promptly inquired into, and if they
have grown damp or chilly they should
be put into fresh garments The walk
will have disposed of some Of their SUI
perfiuous energy, and they will be more
tractAble for the rest Of the day.
Children always like to make be-
lieve," and il they are allowed to make
believe that they are the hosts and
hostesses 1t luncheon, and that the
elder members of the family are their
guests, they will be kept happy until
afternoon.
Scrap books slways amuse children.
A paste pot has IN irresistible and fire.
quently embarrassing charm for the
younger members Of society. II they
are allowed to cut pictures from old
magazines and to paste them into scrap
books made Of bright-colorcd cambric
leaves their joy will be complete. II
they are taught TO make these for the
sick children in the hospitals they will
Be receiving valuable instruction in the
first principles Of philanthropy st the
same time.
Making . toilet for dinner, practicing
their dancing steps and hearing stories
read aloud will wind mp the rainy-day
programme 90 pleasantly that the chill
dren will not miss their Ane-weather
amusements.-N. Y. World

THE INTELLIGENT HORSE.

In the Cavalry Charge Hi Own Fary u
Half the Rattle.
The fiery spirit of the horse has been
greatly subdued by servitude. but II
not entirely conquered. The hunter
and the charger, when in the excite
ment of the chase and battle, are far
from being mere dummies ON which
their master rides. The Judgment OF
a good hunter is oftentimes better than
that of his town-bred rider, who, by
attempted guidance. brings both to
grief.
Houssay relates that Wild horses
meeting an equine friend in harness
are wont to gambol about - though
inviting him again to freedom. and
that II the driver tries forcing them
away with his whip they win crowd
closer. bite the traces and kick the
vehicle until they have released their
captive brother. The TyrolAae. in 1909.
so history tells, took . number Of Be-
varian horses and used them In their
service, whereupon they suddenly
turned back to their old ranks and
nothing would stop them. The civil
war furnished instances Of this nature.
DIR. Romanes, ON the authority Of Dr..
John Rae, quotes IN instance that oe-

promptly shod the foot, when the pony
stamped it . few times, n IL settling
the shoe into better position. and then.
with . happy little neigh, trotted on
