HARDY HORSES OF MEXICO.
Breed Originated in Barbary and Ia
Remarkable for Endurance.

Although at the time of the conquest
horses were unknown in Mexico, that
country to-day boasts of some of the
finest of the species. The horses of Gu
ba that were taken to Mexico, as well
as the horses that went into the River
Plate on similar errand of conquest,
are believed to have been of Andalu-
sian breed. and Cunninghame Graham,
the famous British author and traveller,
who knows from personal experience
both in Mexico and Argentine horses,
holds that we must look to Rarbary
for the progenitors of the Cordobcse
horses. Most horses,' he says, lin

has noted the remarkable fact that
the horses of the Pampas have only
five. Following up his researches, he
has found that the only other breed
of horses in which a similar peculiar
ity is to be found is that of Barbary."
So Cunnlnghame Graham. who has
ridden the horses of the MOors in Mo-
rocco as well as the horses of Mexico
and the Pampas. is of the opinion that
these horses are evidently descended
from those of Barbary

can horses have been imported into
Mexico, often thoroughbreds. and UNI

horse of to-day has changed somewhat

Some one competent and with leisure

HapDiness In the Home.

The first year of married life is the
most important era for both the hus-
band and wife AS it Is spent. SO gen
orally are all the rest Of the years,
as regards their kindly or unkindly
relation to each other. Neither one
alone makes home happy. There must
be great forbearance and love in both
husband and wife, to secure happiness
in the home circle. Home is no para
disc of sweets: the elements Of peace
and true happiness are there, and so.
too, are the elements of discord and
misery; and it needs only the unchar-
table spirit to make 1t a pandemonium
or the loving genius TO make 1t para
disc.
Married people should treat each 9th
err like lovers all their lives-then they
would be happy. Bickerlng and quar-
reling would soon break off love at
fairs; consequently lovers indulge in
such only to a limited extent Women
should grow more devoted. and men
fonder after marriage, If they have the
slightest idea of being happy as wives
and husbands. 1t Is losing sight OF
this fundamental truth which leads to
hundreds of divorces. Yet many

never think of breathing a harsh word
to his sweetheart. and many a wife
will look glum and moroSe on her huS-

and words of cheer for him when I've

expect to be happy?
