Instinct of Horses In war.

Arabian horses manifest remarkable
courage in battle. 1t is said that when
a horse of this breed finds himself
wounded and perceives that he will
not be able to bear his rider much
longer he quickly retires from the CON
fiict, bearing his master to Il place Of
safety while he has still sufficient
strength. But, on the other hand. if
the rider is wounded and falls to the
ground the faithful animal remains
beside him. unmindful of danger,

is, unfortunately, true that we have
fallen little behind in the race. and
we must grid up our loins and quicken

up from year to year in many parts of
the country, SO that the quantity of
