point out thar the outdoor equine enter
tainment, like the sylvan production OF
the comedy, is wholly at the mercy OF
the elements. and that whether they be
fair or froWning, the production is very
likely to be deficient in the smOothness
and promptness which characterizes the
indoor version. These frequent bitches
and any one who has huddled under
an umbrella for hours waiting for some
particular class that should have been
brought on a half day before, knows
how frequent they can be-are due in a
great measure to the post entry sys-
tenn and to the fact that in many in
closures the equine dressing-rOoms are
as inaccessible as they are inadequate.
In the course of the year there are APP
prOximately fifty horse shows given in
various parts of the United States. un-
der the auspices of widely separated
horse-loving communities. Some idea
OF the popularity as well as the numeri-
cal strength of the outdoor show may
be had from the fact that forty of the
fifty are held in the open. These figures,

THE OUTDOOR HORSE sHow-THE
MODERN FAIR.

Whether the open-air horse show is
pr will be ulitmately-the successor of
the ancient Fair of our fathers, or
whether 1t is the familiar
indoor production shifted from the cold,
splendid setting of diamonds and
autumn fashions to the simple back
ground of outdoors, is a problem that
need vex us very little. Just now it is
enough to know that the open-air horse
show has become not only a permanent
institution but permanent refutation
OF the foreigners oft-repeated accusa-
ton that with all our prodigious ex-
panse of out-of-doors we do not know
how to utilize it or appreciate it.
In it's green sweet-smelling freshness,
in it's cleanliness and in the simplicity of
it's stage setting, the outdoor horse show
bears something the same relationship
to the indoor performance as LAS You

WOMEN OF NEW HAVEN
Realize the value of Paxtfne Toilet AM
septic. ,

Judging from the large sales, Pax
tine is fast becoming a necessity to the
women of New Haven, as it is most
delightful and powerful antiseptic,
which is so necessary to every woman's
toilet to insure health and an attractive
personality.
It Is said that the manufacturers are
having hard work to supply the de-
mand which has sprung up for it all
over the United States, because as fast
as one woman tries it she tells her
friends what great boon it is to wo-
men, and this recommendation of Pax
tine by one distinguished woman to an
other is, of course, the very best proof
of merit that any article can possibly
have.
Many women have written that IL it
were ten dollars box they could not
do without it, and unsolicited testimo-
malls are constantly pouring in from
grateful women all over the country
telling how Paxtine has cured them
Of chronic female troubles, catarrh,
sore throat, sore eyes, or how valuable
they have found it to cleanse and whit
en- the teeth, perfume the breath, or
cure all eruptions of the skin.
Paxtine is recommended by the Lydia
u. Pinkham Medicine Co., and other
leading specialists, in the local treat
ment of female ills, as nothing has ever
been found to cleanse and heal inflam-
nation and cure discharges SO quickly.
Inflammation O. the mucous men,
branas in any part of the body causes
catarrh; it may be in the head, nose,
eyes, throat, or female organs; and it
is for this reason that Paxtine has the
power to cleanse, strengthen, and cure
these various troubles.
Paxtine is linequalled for the above
purposes because it contains the most
eff1cacious vegetable antiseptic known
to medicine. 1t is perfectly harmless
and 1t cleanses, energies and makes
healthy every part of the body where
1t is used, , ......

THE MAN WHO KNOWS HOW TO
nErsInE

TIE MAN WHO KNOWS HOW To
DECIDE
Great demand OF to-day is for the
strong, vigorous, positive man, the man
who not only makes up his mind, but
does so with firmness. and. when he has
considered all the circumstances and
conditions Of the matter he is called
upon to decide, does so once for all, and
then throws it of his mind and passes
TO something else. Such man usually
has superior executive ability. He can
not only decide upon course, but he
can also execut it to a finish.
Every watch has an unseen spring
back Of the dial which compeis the
wheels to revolve and makes the hands
mark the time with precision: so; be-
meath the works of every great enter
prise, at the head of every great es-
Establishment, although not often seen by
the public, is a strong character of this
kind, man with an iron grip, who
makes things go ana forces the wheels
|of the machine arouid, regulating their
motion with precision. There Is no go
ing back of him; his decision is abso-
lutte, final. Others can consider, advise,
or suggest, but he is the man who
makes the program, and sees that it is
carried out He is the dominating pow
err. Everything else must point to him,
and all others must get their cues or
orders from him. If he steps out or
ceases to act the institution is like a
watch with broken handspring. The
wheels are all there and everything else
lis in place, but the power is gone and
nothing moves. The iron hand, the de-
cisive power back of it all, has failed to
lend its impulse. The splendid business
which A. T. Steward had built up went
TO pieces when the great executive and
Iorganizing force that had guided it was
removed. The famous old New York
Ledger. which Robert Bonner, by his
taudacious and original business methods
had raised from an insignificant little
financial sheet known as the Merchants
Ledger to be the leading story paper Of
this country, began to decline Inn
lmediately after the master mind. which
had made it ceased. to be the inspira-
ton.
There is only one of these great lead
ers to thousands Of followers. 1t is easy
to trail, to learn or to hang on to the
one who leads, but 1t takes courage, grit
land stamina to be original, prompt and
decisive. to stand squarely on ones own
feet, and to trust entirely to ones own
judgement. Orison SWEET Marden in
Success.

I have made inquiry into the report
as ia natives in certain parts of the
country being on the point of rebellion,
and find that there is unfortunately

ni.use of the whipping Post.

Notwithstanding the advocacy now
and then of the rehabilitation Of the
whipping post. that form of punish
ment is losing rather than gaining
ground in civilized countries. 1t is now
inflicted in England and in only few
of the continental countries of Europe.
In the United States it is used only in
Delaware and Maryland. And perhaps
it still obtains to some extent in Aus
tralia. The punishment is not inflicted
upon women in England, Delaware or
Maryland.
In England there is an increasing re-
luctance on the part of the judges to
inhict the punishment.
A late return shows that this form Of
punishment was ordered only in six
teen cases in 1903. Seven of these SEN
tences were passed at the central Grim
inal court, five by Judge Rentoul and
two by the common sergeant. 1t is in
teresting to notice that Mr. Justice
Wills. Mr.. Justice Lawrence and Mr..
Justice Darling are the only three high
court judges who ordered the use Of
the "cat." Flogging has been practical
Nv discarded in English convict prisons
as a means Of prison discipline, and a
few years ago bill to extend the whip
ping post to a number of offenses not
punishable in that manner was refused
a second reading by the decisive vote
Of 1876 to T2.-Law Notes.
