HORSE HOTELS.
Stables I'm Which Trnnsfents Are Re-
ceived rs Well as Regular
BOarders.

Scattered in various parts of the city
there are stables that might be called
horse hotels, in which transients are
taken, as well as regular boarders; of
boarding stables there are many, and
there are some stables in which stalls
are rented.
A truckman who rented stall in a
stable would feed and care for his horse
himself, simply hiring quarters for the
animal. Much oftener horses are board
ed. A truckman having, say ten horses
or more, would most likely keep stable
Of his own, as would any business con-
Germ running an equal number of
horses. An owner keeping less than ten
would be likely to board them.
At the boarding stables entire care is
taken of the whole outfit The food is
provided and the horses are fed and
cleaned, and the harness is cleaned also.
The driver has nothing to do with any
of this work. When he drives into the
stable and steps down from the truck
the stablemen take charge. They I'M
hook the horse and care for it and the
harness, and they hook the horse up in
the morning. When the truckman
comes for his truck ne finds it ready,
and he simply drives out and goes off
about his days work. There are thou
sands of horses employed in the city
that are regular boarders by the week
or month. The transients, horses that
are put1up for day, more or less, may
be city horses or horses from out of
town. A horse disabled from any cause
would very probably be taken tempo
rarily to the nearest stable receiving
transients. In case of the breakdown
of a vehicle the horses might be taken
to one of these stables pending repairs
to the vehicle. There are always more
or less people driving into New York
from neighboring cities or the sur
rounding country on one errand and an
other, of business or pleasure, who put
up their horses here for day, more or
less. There are drivers coming in from
considerable distances with heavy loads
who do not want to wear their horses
out by driving back the same day; they
put them up here for the night. And so,
from one cause and another, there
might at any time be found, including
horses from the city and horses from
out of town, n considerable number of
transient guests at the various horse
hotels.-N. Y Sun.

pain and strife and a vague unrest
To burden my life and to trouble my breast
Then I said: 'I Will walk where the mil.

/ will battle like them for my daily bread
I will busy my mind and forget this dread
This pain and this strife and this vague un-
rest
That burden my life and trouble my
breast"
So toied all day and l said: II am right
1t will haunt me no longer, this nameless
fright"
But it all came back at the hush OF The
night:
The pain and the strife and the vague un.
rest
That burdened my life and that troubled
my breast
Then I said: II will sail on the trackless
sea
Where the soft winds blow and the waves
dance free:
Far out on its bosom a calm there will be
For this pain and this strife and this vague
That burden my life and that trouble my
breast"
So sailed and sailed on the watery main
And the soft winds went and the soft winds
came,
And forever they gave back the wild re-
frain

That troubled my Ike and that burdened

The answer came quickly: believe, child,

DRIFTING.
Its PeriIous Nature-FOur Facts Re-
gnrding n Too Common State
Its Dangers Indicated.

The perilous nature of drifting comes
from the fact that it is:
/. An unconscious process. 1t re-
quires no effort. The ease of it consti-
tutes its peril and, we might almost
add, its fascination. 1t is the opposite
Of effort. Ease is attractive. The
omission OF daily prayer or Scripture
reading, of religious exercise and duty,
puts the moral nature to sleep and any
effort to resume earnestness is not only
difficult, but ultimately repellant to the
slumbering and slothful powers.
2. Ceaseless. The moment progress
ceases, drifting begins. AS long as the
Christian rests on his oars he loses
ground. He may fancy that he is all
right, but if he ever wakes to a con-
seriousness of his loss he will be startled
at his distance from God.
3. Rapid. Moral and spiritual drift
are as impetuous as the current of a
rushing river. The surface of the
stream in its quiet gives no indication
of the rapidity of its movement. A
short relapse in the spiritual life has
often resulted in unrecoverable loss.
4. Fatal. The most striking passage
in the Bible on drifting" is from the
writer to the Hebrews: Therefore we
ought to give the more earnest heed
to the things that were heard, lest haply
we drift away from them" Negligence
means ruin. Doing nothing shuts one
away from God as surely as doing
wrong. Incidence is wicked. Neglect
of Christ is criminal. He who allows
himself to be swept along by worldly
influence, unchristian companions. love
of ease or pleasure is as utterly lost as
any hayward prodigal.-N. y. Observer.

THE SPIRIT OF REVERENCE.
No One Can Afford to he Rude and
BOisterOus and PrOfane Mt
Any Time.

No man is great, in any real sense OF
the word, who does not possess and Gull
tivate the spirit of reverence for sacred
things. He may own money and
houses and lands, and yet if he has no
sense to perceive and reverence what is
sacred he is coarse, rude and brutal
being.
The spirit of irreverence is destruc-
tive of all that is fine and spiritual in the
life. The habit of mocking and jcsting
at sacred things burns out the very It's
sues of the soul. We are to cultivate the
habit of being thoughtful and reverent
in the presence of God, and we are in
Gods presence all the time.
No one can afford to be rude and bois-
ferrous and profane at any time or I'M
der any circumstances. The laws of
gentle life demand that the gentleman
shall be always polite, else his polite
ness is only dishonest and vulgar
veneer, assumed on certain occasions
for mere effect. So the laws of spirit
ual life demand that we walk softly be-
fore God at all times, unwilling to cher
ish the emotion, utter the word or en-
gage in the act that would coarsen the
nature or Danish us from the felt pres
ence of God.-N. w. Christian Advo-

Heroes or Machines.

Inability to fear is of service in some
animals, but lot in men. Kipling Wv
idly contrasts the dull stolidity of the
bulloeks, who, in their ignorance,
could be made to draw field-pieces near
err to the enemy's fire than could any
other animals, with the high-strung
cent warehouses who showed true hero
ism in moving up only half the distance
covered by the bullocks. The one knew
fear, but conquered it. The other knew
it not, and was of service only as ma
chine. The glory of heroism lies in
conquering the fear which makes cow
ards only when it is unconquered.-S.
