A Queer Horse.

Prescott is a town ir Wisconsin with
not more than 1000 inhabitants, not
counting its dachshund horse. which is
its oldest and most noted resident. The
body of this queer little horse is as large
ms usual. but its double jointed legs are
only is inches long 1t is 3-year-old,
and its sire and dam are regularly form
ed, weighing about $3.50 pounds each,
while their frisky offspring is only $50
pounds in weight. Its disposition is as
gentle as that of Mary's little lamb or of
her Shetland pony 1t looks just as sol
emn as the dog after which so many
jokes have been flung. 1t is sure of an

Work For Young Women.

There are trades open to young wo-
men in which they not only would be
experts, but could add largely to the
comfort of others, which will never be
filled because they would be either laugh
ed at or perhaps set aside by unreason-
ing and weak minded companions. For
instance, there are many girls who have
great Judgment and skill in cooking who
could earn easily $40 month and even
IL very clever $50 or even $40 and who
would rather stand for weary hours sub
iect to the exactions of i'll bred buyers at
a counter, travel home in wet and cold
and receive from So to 81 a week with
out any allowance for their food.
Servant is not pleasant name, nor
Is obedience to commands a pleasant
thing, and there are both mean ana
selfish employers, but l have personally
employed one of the prettiest girls ever
saw, notably refined and delicate, whose
dainty taste and touch made her skill
wonderful. She had little education and
no accomplishments, she knew that she
had great talent for cooking. she mao
widowed mother without income ana
sister dying of consumption, she mao
to relieve her mother of her own MAIN
tenance. and she had to make certain
amount of money. She was kind with
out familiarity to others in the kitcheh'
She kept her leisure hours to herself,
working much for an exchange, enjoyed
her neat and comfortable room, mad ac-
cess to good books and in year earned
the money she required. Her only de-
feet as perfect servant was that she
was so attractive and delicate IN ap,
pearance that she was often embarrassed
by too much attention as she came and
went.
Having attained her end, she returned
to her home, freed from debt by her Ell
forts, and then made preserves and deh
cacies which sold well. Had she peeI

easy time in life, with nothing to do but
to let wondering countrymen who flock to
George Cooks farm gaze at it. When it
trots, the combination Of the patter pat
ter of the quickstep and the long body
stretching out so close to the ground is
comcal enough to make mule laugh.
The tail and name of the new breed Of
horse reach the ground, being especially
long even when considering the abbre-
waited legs. A slight deformity in the
head attracts interest, but does not give
an i'll look to the freak.
Germany gave to the world one of the
most mirth producing of beasts. the
dachshund dog, and Wisconsin has had
the honor of adding to the gayety of ma
tions by turning out the dachshund horse.

Piles make living by diving for pennies.
When the big ocean steamers come to
Italy from America, the water rats sur
round the boats and cry, Penny, penny
in the water, please; hurry up, please"
and few can resist their pleadings. So
over goes penny and into the water oil
the water rats dive at once, and soon up
comes the lucky one with it in bis mouth.

The responses must be given quickly.

Tall Girls of Today.

1t is a certain fact that modern maidens
are much taller and better developed
than were their predecessors, and the
general idea is that it is because they
take so much more outdoor exercise and
go in so largely for physical training.
That. at any rate, is very gratifying
supposition, and l am inclined to think
it is the true one, though certain prosaic
people declare that the physical SUI
periority of modern maids over those
who went before is simply because they
eat more.
Formerly a gentle nurtured damsel was
ashamed of acknowledging that she was
really hungry and reckoned small ap-
petite 'genteep possession. Nowadays
a girl no more pretends to be able to
live upon air than man does, and she
frankly shows her appreciation of a
good dinner. That she is the better for
a sufficiency of food no one doubts or
that it is a very important factor in her
splendid development. Nevertheless l
think those people are right who main
tain that the ''divinely tall' maiGens Of
today owe their superiority in height to
physical exercise, for, though a large
amount of food has gone to build up
those inches, still it is mainly thanks
to outdoor sports that girls have ac-
auired such healthy appetites that salts
fy them they must, even at the risk some
years ago of being considered vulgar for
so doing.
Girls of today are physically much SUI
perior to those of even 40 years ago, and
in spite of the saying that ill weeds
1 grow apace" they are every whit as
| charming as were their mothers and
grandmothers and as a whole certainly
far better educated.
As appetite comes with eating so it is
said. perhaps there is reason for our girls
TO be kept in check, for if they continue
TO develop those appetites by physica
exercise the women of the latter part OF
the twentieth century stand very gooc
chance of being giantesses.-Home Notes
