the color of horses, particularly with
regard to their legs" said M. c..
Jordan, western stockman. "The
best horses l have ever known had
their feet and legs. marked with
white. 1t is proverbial that sorrel
and chestnut horses with white upon
their legs are good natured, while
horses of the same color without a
dash of white are often found to be
unsafe animals. Many people think
that the parti-colored horses belong
ing to circuses are selected for their
oddly, but they are really chosen
on account of their gentleness and
docllity. 1t is said that a black
horse cannot stand the heat. and
white horses have been pronounced
as unsuited to cold. The physiogno-
my of horses is also much regarded.

eyes he is supposed to have superior

is going to war. Squating down by
the side of a tree, taking Steady
aim, l fired. Soon as my gun
cracked, bruin wheeled and went off
out of sight. The report of my gun
was long and loud, the echo bound
ing from hill to hill, which to me
was terrible, and it seemed that |
could hear something running in all
directions, but could see nothing.
All at once there was a dreadful
grooming. This frightened me as l
believed it was the bear, and /
thought if there were any others in
the vicinity, they might come and l
be in danger of being squeezed to
death in their huge arms. Loosing
no time in reoading my gun, l stood
in breathless silence for some time,
but seeing nothing, cautiously
ventured up to where the bear had
stood and found that if / had hit
him, the ball from my rifle had gone
through his body and lodged in
beach tree. Proceeding cautiously
in the direction he had gone, his
trail being easily followed as he had
torn the ground and leaves up as he
went. / had not proceeded far
when I beheld half a dozen spotted
fawns, with tails up and at play.
This took my attention and for some
time | tried to get one of them, but
they were too shy and smart to be
caught by hunter. 1t was now
nearly dark and | did not find bruin
until / came back the next morning.
He was stone dead and the meat
entirely spoiled. I skinned him,
cut off one of his fore-pows, and took
them home.
An ok bear hunter told me, after
wards, that whenever l shot a bear
and heard it groan, not to be afraid
to venture up to it, for the breath
was then leaving the body and the
bear dying. More anon.

your coat down to day, you "laid" it

Companion puts it this way:
A man cannot set on wash bench,
but he could set the basin on it, and
neither the grammarians or the basin
would object. He could sit on the
dogs tail if he were willing, or he
might set his foot on it. But if he
should set on the aforesaid tail, or
sit his foot there, the grammarians
as we'll as the dog would howl. And
yet the man might set the tail aside
and then sit down, and be assailed
neither by the dog nor by the gram
