OvERDRAw AND BEARING REIN.
THE BEARING REIN

rein could be obviated to a great extent
If a little more time and patience were
given to the first lessons toward training
the young horse.
There is another form Of checkrein,
however, which is even more of an evil
than the overdraw. This is the bearing
rein, or bridoon, 10 commonly used in
large cities on the carriage horses be-
longing to those who delight in being
called the "elite' of the land. So call
ed society is never better pleased than
when it is mistaken for something it is
not. It has no feeling either for itself or
for the lives attached to it. and the only
purpose the bearing rein serves is to give
horses the appearance Of having lofty
crests, thereby adding a little to the
stylishness of their turnout, something
which is 10 little consideration to this
class, who are ever trying to m%onopolize
public attention. A horse wearing a
bearing rein will fag more at the end Of
ten miles than the SAM horse without
it would at the end of 20 miles. This
device has no earthly use, outside of ap-
pearance, and from 8 common sense
view very little then. In spite Of this
there are those who believe. or try to be-
lieve, that a horse is not correctly har-
messed without a bearing rein.

Nh. Alexander Mair, manager of the
Indian Neck Horse farm. Oakdale, L. l.,
makes plain to the most uninitiated the
difference between the effect Of the over
draw checkrein and that of the bearing
rein. He says:
The object of the overdraw checkrein
is to keep up the head, and there is no
doubt that it has been and still is a great
help in the training Of trotting horses.
Some t%rotters, l believe, cannot be
driven without it. Still, when we see a
horse checked SO high that it is quite
impossible for him to see where he is
going, we are apt to condemn such a de
vice as cruel. Moreover, such extreme
checking affects the muscles Of the neck,
and even the shoulders and the legs,
making it difficult for the animal to
walk with any degree Of comfort. The
evil arising from the abuse Of the check

Impending changes for Turkey are
plainly in sight, and they will come
possibly through disruption from with
in, not partition without. The most sig
niiicant straw showing the direction Of
the wind is the rumor of a good under
standing between the young Mussul-
man party and the outraged, rebellious
Armenians. II there is enough live
blood in the young Turks to make them
desire to sweep away out Of their coun-
try the Anticipated, vicious oriental rule
and introduce western reforms, then,
with the aid of the Armenians, this can
be done. But it would be one of the
strangest sights ever this world witness
ed to see Christian and Mohammedan
in alliance fighting side by side fer the
same cause, and that the cause Of free

Raising Eeef.

The steers that bring 500 per head in
the Chicago market are not "scrubs."
They are from we'll bred bulls out of
good grade cows. You can It make "top"
cattle by any other method. Neither is
there any known process for increasing
the supply Of 2 and 5 year old bullocks
in one season. A shortage in hogs, sheep
Or rabbits can be made good in a COM
p%aratively short space Of time, but there
is no species of "rapid transit" that can
be brought to bear to relieve quickly a
situation which has been brought about
as q result Of a wholesale abandoning of
beef cattle breeding. The breeding stocks
CT the west have been reduced to a point
where every good COW Or heifer and ev-
cry pure bred bull available should now
lie priced as about the most valuable
sort Of property the farmers Of the corn
and Dlue grass regions can own at the
present time. When beef rises to such
prices il the face Of a badly crippled
purchasing power on the part of con-
SpmerG, is seems clear that with the
gradual revival Of our great manufac-
turing AID commercial interests now 60
ing on, the demand for this necessary
Glticle Of consumption must for several
years. at least more than keep pace with
any possible increase Of the supply.
Present prices for breeding stock are by
10 means in line with present and pro-
gpective prices for butchers stock. Those
Who buy good pyre bred bulls and cows
Lave therefore as good a chance for profit
80 the most conservative could wish, and
the chances are that those who buy
earliest will buy cheapest. 1t certainly

When I'm With Her.

When I'm with her,
The sky is arched with deeper blue,
The flowers are decked in richer hue,
And glad fields seem to smile anew
When I'm with her.
When I'm with her,
More gentle is the murmur of the brook,
More sweet the songs from dell and nook,
And ever glad is life's old story book
When I'm with her.
When I'm with her,
The sunset paints a brighter sky,
The distant ships quiet at anchor lie,
And hours like moments hurry by
When I'm with her.
When I'm with her,
The moonbeams fall in softer light,
The bright stars laugh upon a perfect night.
And all the world is filed with truth and right
When I'm with her.
When I'm with her,
Ny hayward heart seems nearer pure,
OF God and future then I'm almost sure,
And naught from right can me allure
When I'm with her.

THE bimetalic party of the United
States, says the Inter Ocean, is the re-
publican party; it is the party whose
policy has maintained a domestic
parity of silver and gold, and it is the
only party that is capable of establish
ing an international party Of the
metals by agreements or treaties with
foreign powers. For the foreign policy
of the democratic party always has
been feeble as the policy of any Amer
lean free trade party must be. A vigor-
Gus policy of protection to American
industries must precede the recogni-
ton of silver as universal money.
For when the United States shall be
very near to self-sustaining; by reason
of the abundance of it's output of all
manufactures of necessary articles, dis
criminatig tariffs against Great Britain
would soon modify that country's
discrimination against silver and or
gold. England is the gold king. With
that country conquered the battle
would be won.

st. Peter sits at the heavenly gate,
MS hands on the strings of the lyre,
and sings a low song as he patiently
waits for the souls of those who expire.
He hears in the distance chorus of
song swell from the foot of the throne.
and he smiles as the music is waited
along and he MARBLES a lay of his own !:
"There is room in this region for mil
lions of souls, who by sorrow and woe
were bereft; tbs for these who have
suffered the melody rolls, but the kick
ers must turn to the left. There is
room for the people who when they
were young, persisted in sowing wild
oats, yet doomed up their town with
sinew and tongue, but the kickers
mustgo with the goats. There is room
for the people who pointed with pride
to the beauty and growth OF their town,
who kept singing its praises aloud till
they died, but the kickers will please
amble down. They'd say the music
was all out of tune, and the angelic
grown 'hand-me-down,' and they'd
send for jeweler up in the moon to
sample the gold in their crown.
So while there is room for a million
OF souls, who by sorrow and woe were
bereft, we want no complaint of the
music that rolls, SO the kicker will
turn to the LETT
