Some trees are more graceful than
Others. The elm and oak are noted for
their perfect and graceful form. All
their branches appear to be perpetually
moving. stirred by every wind that
blows, and the same may be said OF
the pine. The graceful movements Of
its limbs, the signing sounds OF its
stems and evergreen needless send forth
a solemn symphony. Everything con.
tributes serene grace and simplicity to

INTELLIGENCE OF HORSES.

James H. Wallick, Of Bandit" and
Cattle King fame, says: II can pick
an intelligent horse. Every horse has
character, and you can size him up
as easily as you can determine the
character of a person. When the horses
disposition is known, then the question
Of how to deal with him Is simple. The
horse has put one idea at time in his
head and should be treated according
ly. He would never be whipped for
fright, but new idea should be given
him to attract his attention. Talking to
him will often do that.
BE gentle with horse, but let him
know that you are the master. This
rule is universal one. The success
full business man controls his employees
by that method. If the horse has con-
dence in his master he will obey his
command. but he must know what his
master wishes MIN to do. That Is the
Few are able to communicate to the
dumb brutes, but only such can be
trainers. The thoroughbreds are usual
iy the most intelligent, and consequent
ly the most proud spirited, but the re-
suits from them are correspondingly
greater.
"No horse is by nature bad or vicious.
but is made so by cruel or impatient
men. But vicious horses can be re-
formed just as can evil persons, and
do you know, think that persons, like
other animals, are made and not born
vicious. Some horses are lunatics, and
are no more accountable for their acts
than insane human beings. A man
who can deal with men can deal with
the brute creation for the natures of
all are the same in quality, but in lower
animals the quality of intelligence va
ries. No wonder a horse acts badly
when fool of man is trying to man
age him.
Mr.. Wallick cited a number of Incl
dents of horses which he had reformed,
trained or taught, for he refused to
make use of the term "broke'' in that
connection, and as a special illustration
concluded: Il once attended a circus
and saw trained horse perform.
Show how you do when you are
sleepy said the trainer, and the horse
opened his mouth and gaped. The man
accompanied this by sticking the whip
into the horses mouth, which would
make any one pretend to cape. l taught
a horse the same trick by simply Show
ing what | wanted It took me Is min
utes. | got his attention, opened my
mouth, and then fed the horse sugar
when he followed my example. THE

The sleeping echoes of her quiet room
Are never walked by bursts Of childish
glee
And up the polished staircase never come
Light gatherings Of footsteps swift and
free
Alone she sits and IN the twilight gloom
Dreams happily of what shall never be!
Sometimes her wistful fancy strews the
floor
Qich carpeted and neaD with broken
toys;
Paints finger prints on window glass and
door
Hears echoes of shrill laughter and rude
noise;
All that tired mother might deplore
Would seem to her starved heart as
priceless joys
TIN, from the world without, some sudden
note
OF childish voices through her vision
rings,
And sobs of anguish rise to her white
throat
Round which no dimpled arm in mischief
clings;
Gone are the sweet dream-fancies as may
float
From earth to heaven the flash of angel
wings.
And yet, no little empty crib is there
To mock the mother arms, outstretched
in vain,
She boards no shining tress Of silken hair.
No tiny grave where buried hopes lie
slain;
Only the deeper loss she has to bear
Upon whose heart no babe of hers has
lain.

Every royal family in Europe has
member who is collecting stamps.
Probably the most Jealous collector is
Princess Clementine of Belgium. She
has made study of stamps, and is re-
garded as an authority on the subject.
Queen Wilhelmina of Holland and
the King of Servia have for years been
placing stamps in beautiful albums, but
of late it is said their interest in the
work has somewhat waned. On the
other hand, the duke of York is we'll
