Tho term dark horse" Is such a
familiar one, even TO persons who do
not frequent horse races. that few
stop to wonder at It's origin, and few
er still know anything about the cir
cumstances to which it owes Its crea-
tlon. Its origin is due to Lord Bea-
consneld who used the phrase IN
"The Young Duke" In this novel he
speaks Of a dark horse which had
never been thought Of and which few
had so much as observed The dark
horse, however. rushed past the grand
stand TO victory This dark horse
was actually one OF dark color, but
to-day The color is no longer taken
into account. A dark horse may be
anything. so long as he sweeps from
the ranks OF the unnoticed to the
