A HORSE AT THE SHOW.
story of "A Ribbon Winning From an
Equine Viewpoint.

story of "A Ribbon Winning From az
Equine Viewpoint.
One of the popular features of the
annual horse show In New York Is the
squad of park police horses that is al
ways entered. The winning of blue
ribbon by one of these police horses is
told in Horses Nine" by Sewell Ford
from the viewpoint of the horse. The
author says:
So it happened that one morning
Skipper heard the sergeant tell Reddy
that he had been detailed for the horse
show squad. Reddy had saluted and
said nothing at the time, but when
they were once out on post lie told
Skipper all about 1t.
Sure an it's app'arin' before all the
swells in town ye'll be, me by Plat
do we think Of that, eh? An mebbe
yen be gettin' a blue ribbon, Skipper,
me lad, an mebbe Mr.. Patrick Martin
will have roundsman's berth an
chevrons on his sleeves afore the years
out"
The horse show was all that Reddy
had promised, and more. The light al
most dazzled Skipper. The sounds and
the smells confused him, but he felt
Reddy on his back, heard him chirrup
softly and soon felt at ease on the tam
bark.
Then there was great crash of
noise, and Skipper. with some fifty Of
his friends on the force, began to move
around the circle. First it was fours
abreast. then by twos, and then rush
TO troop front, when, in a long line,
they swept around as If they had been
harnessed to a beam by traces of equal
length
After some more eyolutions a half
dozen were picked out and put through
their PAGES. Skipper was one of these.
Then three of the six were sent TO join
the rest of the squad. Only Skipper
and two others remained in the center
of the ring. Men in queer clothes.
wearing tall, black hats, showing much
white shirt front and carrying long
whips, came and looked them over
carefully.
Skipper showed these men how he
could waltz in time to the music, and
the people who banked the circle as
far up as Skipper could see shouted
and clapped their hands until 1t seemed
as If thunderstorm had broken loose.
At last one of the men In tall hats tied
n blue ribbon on Shippers bride.
When Reddy got him into the stable,
lie fed him four big red apples. one
after the other. Next day Skipper
knew that he was famous horse.
Reddy showed him their pictures in
the paper

A second is the smallest division of
time in general use, and when we con-
slider that in one year there are about
3l,55S,000 of these periods it would
certainly seem as if it was enough for
all practical purposes. But, after all,
a good deal can happen in the fraction
of second.
A light wave, for instance, passes
through n distance of about 10000
miles in this length of time. a current
of electricity has probably an even
greater speed. The earth in itself
moves in its orbit at rate of about
twenty miles a second.
A tuning fork of the French standard
vlbrates $40 times per second TO pro-
duce the note on the treble staff.

DOING A GREAT DEED.



When Boston's great preacher, Phil
lips Brooks, was student at college,
he decided to enter the ministry. His
instructors advised him against this
step because of an impeachment in
speech. The professors had all the
argument on their SIDE" said the ia
nous clergyman years after when by
patient effort he had gained control of
his voice. but naturally l could not
protest. for words failed me-"
To this preachers study there came
one day youth. physically perfect,
ambitious for honor and looking for q
short cut up the road to success. lie
intimated that he wished to do some
great thing better than it could be done
by any one else.
Phillips Brooks wrote rapidly upon a
piece of paper while his visitor was
speaking, sealed 1t in an envelope and
then suggested that the note be read
when the man reached home. The let
ter read: "Stand i'll the moonlight and
you will cast shadow. No man can
cast Il shadow just like it,"
The young man realized that the
preacher had made his honest ambi-
| ton seem ridiculous, but made another
attempt. ON the original letter he
wrote. Possible, but l desire that the
deed | do be of benefit to my fellow
men,"
Back came the original letter, with
| these words added Then stand in the
sunlight and permit the workingmar
TO eat his lunch in your shadow"
