her Capt. Hayes stroked her gently with
long rod. She stood quite still during
this proceeding, seeming not to resent it
in the least. But when a man ap-
preached her with halter she plunged
and reared, raced madly round and
round the paddock. Presently she
quieted down and the trainer got near
enough to slip a moose around her right
leg She tried to kick it loose, but in
doing so got her left leg entangled in
it. She was thrown forward on her front
legs in a kneeling position, and then
with gentle push sent rolling on her
side. Her four legs were then bound
with ropes until she was utterly help
less. For an hour she was left in this
plight, then the ropes were removed
from her feet and she got up meek
and submissive creature.
She stood still while bit was placed
in her mouth and saddle strapped to
her back. Capt. Hayes climbed into the
saddle and Jennie consented to be rid
den. She makes an excellent saddle
horse, intelligent, fast and thoroughly
to be relied upon.

Refuse to Be Put Back.

Keep trying. That is the very best
one can do. He is surely beaten who
does not try. Perseverance is sure to
carry one ahead. 1t has been said of the
British in warfare that they never know
when they are beaten Willful ignorance
of that same kind has won some splendid
victories in battles with discouragemenr
and hard conditions. Never know your
self as beaten. You may be headed off
in one direction; just try another.
There's way up and way out of him
ORANGES for him who keeps on climbing.
Find way or make one. Refuse to be
put back. You may not get just where
you think you ought to be, but really you
are succeeding all the while you are
trying, because you are doing your best.
-Well-Spring.

driver from the livery stable. The
boys had told the doctor that Jack
had gone to take little drive. Nat
urally, the doctors humor was not a
pleasant one. Jack tried to explain
that he was only fooling, and had
not meant to carry the joke so far.
well, young man, shall call upon
your father to settle the account" said
the doctor, sternly, as he drove away.
Early next morning Jac-- walked the
four miles again to DR.. Aliens office.
He made the best apology he could,
and then handed the doctor ten dol
lars in silver, of his own saving.
your fooling cost me exactly half
of that" said DR.. Allen. "and since
you are doing all you can to correct
the wrong, shall be satisfied with just
what paid"
Jack thanked him, and then walked
the four miles home again.
So it comes out in the end that old
Charlie is the hero of this story. He
had a fine four-mile run that remind
ed him of his coltish days. besides
getting back early to the stable. And
blackwell, Jack paid very dear for his
whistle, as Poor Richard says; but tho
lesson he learned made him different

a fine joke it would be to borrow the
horse and buggy, take ride and be
back again before the doctor came
out.
You dare not do it," exclaimed the
boys
Now, Jack was not what you would
call a hero, but he was meddlesome,
tricky boy.
WELL" he shouted, I'm going to
have some fun, anyway" And as none
of the other boys would join him, he
unhitched the horse and jumped in.
No sooner did old Charlie feel the
strange hand on the lines than he
wheeled short around and headed for
home.
Get up" cried Jack, as he grinned
at his playmates. And Charlie did
"get up." He almost forgot that he
was no longer a colt. Faster and
faster he went, until Jack thought
it was time to slow down and turn
around.
Charlie thought otherwise. He had
the bit we'll in his mouth, ard had his
mind fully set upon going home: 1t

cries Of "Whoa!" might as we'll have

St. Lou:s.-Early visitors to the Louis
lana Purchase exposition have found
at St. Louis an exposition so nearly COM
plete that they have in no way missed
the few minor details that were unfin-
ished on the opening day, and which
have since been completed. In fact in
an exposition of such proportions as
this it would be impossible to discover
a thousand little details that might lack
completion.
Weather conditions were against the
exposition management for a few day IS
preceding the opening. Now every
thing is favorable, and the great fair
is entirely complete a completeness, we
must repeat, that is so enormous that
it is ali but impossible to comprehend
what it has meant to the builders. The
last yestige of scaffolding that for a
few days surrounded some of the less i'm
portant buildings has been torn away;
the last wagon load Of refuse hauled
from the grounds; every flower and
shrub the landscape gardeners included
in their scheme of decoration growing
under the benign influence OF a spring
sun, and the exposition stands forth a
completed giant, beautiful in concep-
ton, wonderful in execution, stupendous
in size, by far the masterpiece of the
worlds expositions.
Stupendous size does not half express
it. This worlds fair has many sur
prises for the visitor, but it's immense
size is the greatest astonisher of ALL
Amusement at the extent of the fair is
heard from every visitor.
1t has been interesting to watch the
visitors these first days of the fair. In
teresting to see what would appeal to
then strongest, but after one has studied
the mass of humanity in their quest for
the wonders it is hard to select any one
feature that could be designated as a
general favorite with ALL Of course all
visitors are enthusiastic over the general
picture, the grand en- semble, which has

his head over his own barnyard gate
did Charlie halt.
At first neither Mike, the good-natured
hired man. nor the doctors wife could
believe what Jack told them when he
stammered out kind OF confession.
When finally Mike did get the truth
through his head. he reached for the
buggy whip, and would certainly have
settled part of the account then and
there had not Jack been exceedingly
spry in taking the hint.
Long before the boy had walked the
tedious four miles back, he had fully
made up his mind to tell his father,
and also the doctR, the whole story.
Another thing he had resolved was
that he would never again play mean
and meddlesome trick.
He was nearly home when he met
the doctor with a horse, buggy and

ND CHARLIE knew a thing
or two. When Jack Myers
climbed into DR.. Aliens buggy
and called: "Get up" Charlie knew
that it was not his master who was
jerking unkindly at the lines. Char
lie also knew the shortest way home,
and he remembered that the doctors
drives often lasted all day. Had he
felt as frisky as he once did, and es-
pecially had he known that Jack Myers,
the boy who was always playing tricks,
was now trying one of them on the
doctor and his good horse, there is no
telling what might have happened
OF course. the other boys were some
what to blame. They had all seen
the doctor tie his horse to the gate and
pass up the long walk by the evergreen
hedge to the big house. almost hidden
by the trees. Jack had remarked what

grounds to the electric railways, the
machinery in operation in the exposi-
ton buildings, the pumps supplying
water to the cascades and fountains,
the refrigerating plant and for other
purposes The total horsepower used
at Chicago did not exceed $4,000 and at
tho Pan-American not over 5000, in
comparison with the 10000 to $4,000
here.
Electricity had only five and one
half acres at Chicago, while at St. Louis
nine acres are given to the same de-
partment, besides large display Of
electrical generators in the Palace Of
Machinery.
No one should be deferred from visit
ing the worlds fair because of the fear
that living expenses in St. Louis are too
high. If anyone has this notion it is
high time that it be dispelled. There is
absolutely no doubt of the fact that one
can find excellent living accommoda-
tions in St. Louis now at rates not ex-
ceeding the charges this same month in

No one need pay more than one dollar
day for good room. That is an aver
age rate, though many accommodations
of excellent character may be had for
less There are many unrented rooms
at five dollars week, advertised every
day in the newspapers. Hundreds Of
restaurants serve meals or give short
order service at the same rates
that prevailed before the exposition
opened.
1t is suggested that the stranger in
St. Louis, who wishes to find reasonable
clearinghouse rates, make inquiry at
a grocery store or meat market in the
vicinity where he desires to stop. The
grocers and butchers know nearly all
the boarding houses in their neighbour
hoods, and they are quite willing to
oblige the stranger by directing him to
a place to suit his purse and his tastes

but few get further than the point from
which they catch their first view Of this
grand picture.
1T almost takes my breath away
exclaimed one woman near whom was
standing as she caught her first glimpse
of the beauty of the cascades and the
magnificence of the grand exposition
palaces. Such is the general verdict.
For beauty, for magnificence, for extent,
St. Louis has beat the world.
There is another feature, or rather
collection of features, which seemingly
appeals to every visitor, and with good
reason, and that is The Pike" The
fair management do not wish to appeal
to the public with a side-show. They
built an exposition which should stand
forth to the world on it's merits as an
educator, as a monument to the worlds
progress, but realizing that an amuse-
ment feature was necessary they set to
work to provide the biggest and best in
this line that has ever been known That
they have succeeded in this is evident
to every visitor who travels The Pike
Nor is this great amusement feature
lacking i'll educational interest. Here
one may study the architectural fancies
of the world here he may study the
nations of the world, their methods OF
life, their surroundings, their customs.

plant Never before at an exposition
has there been even half as much
power developed as supplied from the
various prime movers in the Palace of
Machinery In large boiler house
standing west of the Machinery build
ing, filled with the latest and best pro-
auctions of skilled boiler manufactures,
steam is generated to supply 10000
horsepower to the various engines in
the Machinery building. In addition
to this about 10000 horsepower is re-
ceived by electric cable from power sta
lions in the city of St. Louis. But the
greatest interest is in the engines them
selves rather than in the large capacity
of the exhibit, for among them is a
giant turbine or rotary engine develop
ing 5000 horsepower, besides others of
a similar type of smaller capacity. This
is the first display of turbine engines
at large exposition, as its develop
ment is a very recent achievement of
mechanical engineering and invention.
At the Chicago Exposition the larg-
est gas engine developed only ten
horsepower; the visitor to st. Louis
may see gas engine with the capacity
of 300 times larger than the Chicago
engine. The 5000 horsepower gas en-
CINE is the largest engine of it's char
acter ever built Many other gas en-
gnes of various types developing from
1000 to 1850 horsepower complete this
feature of the exhibit, and there are
many of the more familiar reciprocal
ing engines of the latest pattern and
highest efficiency.
| Of the total number of prime movers
In the Palace of Machinery about one
half are comprised in what is known a.
the Exposition power plant, the other
half being exhibitors engines. Nearly
all these engines are connected with
