ESSAY ON THE HORSE.
Remarkable Production Said to &c
Work of Indian.

Here is a remarkable essay on the
horse, said to be from the pen OF an
Indian student: THE horse is a very
noble quadruped, but when he is angry
he will not do so. He Is ridden on
the spinal cord by the bride and sad
~ the driver places his foots on the
stirrups and divides his lower limbs
across the saddle and drives his ami
NAL to the meadow. He has four
legs: two are on the front side and
two are afterward. These are the
weapons on which he runs. He also
defends himself by extending these in
the rear in parallel direction toward
his foe, but this he does only when
he is in an aggrayating mood. There
IS no animal like the horse. No soon.

VALUE OF MORAL TRAINING.
Most Important Point in Bringing Up
of Children

In bringing up our children, we
have learned that in regard to rellgi.
Gus matters, the sacred needs to be
diluted with the secular. In other
words, religious instruction in the alb
stract Is not nearly so efficacious in
character building as the making a
few principles of righteousness a vital
part of life. Practice is better than
precept. says Good Housekeeping. My
boy quickly learned the Bibles in
functions as to kindness and gener.
osity, but when he gave ten cents OF
hard earned money to help a poor
woman, the act made a greater i'm
preston upon his nature than all his
Sunday schooling. Most of us par.
ents need to realize that actions
speak louder than words-that good
example and right deeds by parents.
during the week have more effect
upon the child than church going
alone.

Time to Read New Testament.

"A great many people are under
the impression that it takes long
while to read the New Testament
remarked a well.known preacher the
other day, but as matter of fact II
only requires sixty hours for the aver
age reader to read the entire book;
or, in other words, if man were to
read an hour each day he would finish
the book inside of two months. | told
this to bushes man once, and he
said he didn't believe me. Thinking
it would be good plan to get him to
read it at any rate, | advised him to
try 1t, and the result was that he re-
ported that he had read everything in
it within forty hours. "-Philadelphia

Blanket Instead Of an overcoat.

Wearing blanket is usually asso.

a blanket Is far more useful to the
outdoor man than it would seem at

to make plain a few of its good points
for the benefit Of the man who likes
to know of the good things of the
earth-and the blanket is one of them.
1t makes the best hunters overcoat in
the world for cold weather, because It
is light. ware and loose. 1t clings
