vanished but it looks we'll. II will now
outwear half a dozen ready-made sleighs.
This old sleigh which has been running
for 26 seasons can not be bought for 500.
have found out that 1t pays to buy a
good thing and have come to the conclu-
sion that l was not so big fool as l
thought / was when was riding home in
my new sleigh from West Randolph.
Mr.. Bean has not paid me fee for
writing this article. He knows nothing
about II. Perhaps he has got through
making such sleighs. From what l know
OF the man think he would not go into
the "shoddy" business but would keep
right on making the same reliable work.

There are dozen more trails more

To drive Is more complicated. There
are one or two or three possible roads.
One from the extreme eastern end Is
easy enough to those who know where
1t is, but tie inexperienced are apt to
find themselves following quarry
road that leads them into an arroyo

OF the way where the water from the
reservoirs has washed away the out
horrid bit of road and the
mare knows half q wagon load OF
stones and sand and half Mexican
working half q day would fix it up all
right SO she regularly registers her
martydom to mans shiftlessness and
her protest that humans do not do their
part as humans as well as she does hers
as horse.
Past the reservoirs one is on the
wide mesa and may drive along It's
outer edge and see many cacti and oc-

take the middle road and find the

lar experiences as in the up going ex-
cept the mare having her nose turned
towards her oats is livelier and gives
one no chance whatever to botanize or
find out what shapes the fantastic
clouds are assuming.
While one il considering horFes and
tn cir horsy humanness one Is re-
minded that Ell Paso has about as
interesting lot of horses, dogs and
burros as any town has. It is pity
that a few of the horses are checked
too high, but as rule horse is we'll
treated here. Now that Fashion, ell
compelling, does not countenance dock
ing, high checking and the torturing
curb bits, it seems a pity that they
should exist at all. Real sristocrats,
gentlemen and gentlewomen,a are never
inhumane. 1t Is not nice
to mutiiate and torture ami
mails. There are one or two
Ell Psso horses of good families who
are checked numerically high and
one of them at least makes no pretence
to fashion, being only q rough coated,

small headed, somewhat ungainly
beast but evidently strong and long en-
during and good horse. He has his
head checked up so high that it is all
out of line with the rest of his anatomy
and it gives him what would be q ridi-
culously supercilious look If it were not
painful to see. There is no society for
the prevention of cruelty to animals
here, nor does there seem to be much
need of one. Occasionally people are
careless, that is all, but their careless
ness is uncomfortable for some of the
beasts and for the friends of the beasts.
If girl have q name she thinks com =
monplace she is prone to change

dignified names of Mary and Susan
and Jane into some aimsier French
forms, is not commepdable, but the
girls sometimes do good work in re-
wing the worthier originals of cor
ruptiOns and nicknames. For gen.

first year she moulded her name to
something more fine of sound by having
herself called "Bridgetta. During
the second year she contrived to be
nicknamed "Etta." This was develop
ed into Margaretta during the third
year and when the time came 20
receive her diploma she was of course,
