A lawyer owned horse that always
stopped and refused to cross a certain
bridge leading out of town Neither
whipping nor coaxing would move
the horse when he approached this
bridge. The disciple 0f Dlaeksteas
therefore advertised him for sale in
this manner: ''Horse for sale; to be
sold for no other reason than that the
owner wants TO get out of town.
English thoroughbred breeders have
been advertising their stations for the
past two months. 1t is interesting, in
looking over the columns of the Lon

easements and to compare the prices at
which these stations are offered with
the prices for which the best of the
public stations stand in America. For
instance, Rock Sand, great race horse
but absolutely untried at the stud. is
offered at 200 guineas a mare. His
book for 1906 is already full and sub
scrlptions are being accepted for 1907.

Of them are placed at from 90 to 100

Flying Fox and a few others of great
fame have had the limited number of

ers allowed eagerly taken at as much
as 600 guineas the mare.

A Shetland PoHy-mare named Belle
owned at the historic Woodbnrn Farm
in Kentucky, produced a living foal
when she was thirty years old. The
youngster was mere pigmy when
born, but lived about 80 DAYS. Many

ductive far beyond the usual equine
limit are recorded, but this one is
among the most remarkable.

most vulnerable points of attack by

nine species of injuries are enumer-

cases to numerous minor fractures ard

the curiositieS of the Isle OF Name,
n Of the Seychelles islands, in, the
Indian ocean. The Seychelles Islands,,
which are supposed by many to be the
site Of the Eden Of the Old Testament,
form an archipelago of ia islands and
are situated about 1,400 miles east Of
Alden and 1000 miles Of Zanzibar.
They rise steeply out Of the sea, culmi-
mating In the Isle Of Maize, which is
about 5000 feet above the level Of the
ocean and is nearly the center OF the
group. All these islands are of coral
growth. The houses are built OF Il
species Of massive coral hewed into
square blocks, which glisten like white
marble and show themselves to the
utmost advantage in the various tinted
green Of the thick tropical palms,
whose immense fernlike leaves give
pleasant and much needed shade. These
palms grow as high as 100 feet or more,
overlapping both the houses and the
coral built church. They line the sea-
shore and the mountains, form
ing in many places extensive forests.

SEaSHlYw of Salads.

Too many people who are we'll bred
in nearly every other respect are guilty
Of he solecism-to call it by the mild
est name-of cutting up their salad on
he plate. OF course salad has some
times to be reduced to lower dimen-
sions, so to speak, but it need not be
done by the wholesale or quite in the
buSinesSllke fashion practiced by
some. Grasping a knife in one hand
and a fork in the other, they slash
away at the inoffensive green stuff
with a vigor and a noise Of q miniature
moving machine until the bruised
leaves are converted into shreds Of
their former selves. There is common
sense In the convention that prohibits
such 4 course. Nearly all green salads
are broken into pieces of convenient
size before sending to the table. Even
when these are too large the leaf
should be quietly divided with a fork.

Two Types of Biographical writing.

Two Types of Biographical Writing.
1t is an Interesting fact In the history
Of literary genres that two Of the great
examples Of biographical writing occur
almost side by side. Less than a decade
separates the completion of Johnson's
Lives of the Poets" from the publica.
ton Of his own life by Boswell. Yet
with the latter book a new type of
biography came into being. Johnson.
In the main, had, like most Of his pred
e%cesSOrs, followed a simple narrative
and expository method, prefxing q
plain story Of the poets life to a sys-
tematic account Of his character and a
critical estimate of his works. lie
gathered his facts and impressions TO-
gether and spoke for the author and for
himself. Boswell, Oh the other hand,
making use of a more dramatic meth
cd. succeeded in his attempt to let the
author reveal himself, and, instead of
an exposition Of character, painted q
picture of personality TO which his own
comments We're subordinate. What we
see as o type Of mind and character in
Johnson's work we see as a living man
~ Boswell.-William T. Brewster in
Forum.
