B An Old Arab Legend That Tells Of His
Unmatched Speed. IL FL
The bay colored horse is said to be
the swiftest Of all the horses. "A story
TO illustrate this is told of a certain
Arab sheik who. having been engaged
In fight with another tribe, was TAX
ing his flight with his little son.
They were both mounted on mag
nificent white mare which belonged to
the sheik and which had always been
highly valued on account Of the great
speed at which it could go. After hav-
ing ridden some little distance the
sheik asked his son to look around and
see If they We're being followed. The
boy replied that there was some one
riding after them on black horse.
The sheik seemed satisfied on hearing
this report, but presently repeated his
question. The boy answered that they
were still being pursued, but that this
time the horse was white. .Neyer
mind" said the father; ''mine Is
faster" 5-&n-
In few minutes he asked for a
further report, and the reply was the
same, with the difference that the horse
was chestnut. The shiek, however,
put his question fourth time, but
upon being told by his son that the
pursuer was mounted on bay he
cried out, 'Then we are lost, for there
is no horse which it cannot overtake,"
His words proved to be true, for in a
short time they were caught up with
and captured.

During the Seventeenth century le

followed English pfecedents, modify
ing them. however, by the practice Of
the Indians, with whom he came in
contact. Quack apothecaries began to
spring up in the new land, and in 1886
the colony Of Virginia passed a law
which among other things regulated
the prices and fees of the druggist.
At this time it was fashionable for
the druggists to practice surgery In adj
dition to pharmacy, and the Virginia
colony contained a large number OF
people who were proficient in both pro-
fessions- In Massachusetts the busi-
ness was largely In the hands of
Indians, schoo lmasters, old women and
teachers The Salem Wftchcraft de-
fusion retarded the spread Of the drug
gist for some time I'm the Bay State,
for, the popular impression fastened on
the apothecaries a suspicion that they
sold the potions that were supposed to
produce the spells. Among those who
suffered persecution at this time

been prominent. >sg..-. .:., -.s,ys.
