He is no longer a beauty, is old Bill
He is knockkneed as you can see
where he stands there obedient To you
will But fifteen years ago those leg,
were as neat and trim as those of any
thoroughbred. They have been saggeG
In your service. With q pride in his
going qualities you drove him pell
nell over hard roads and pavements
And you let him stand by the hour AT
a hitching rack while you dallied
Stamping in summer TO keep off the
flies and in winter to keep his blood
in Circulation, pounded over pavements,
what wonder he is bowlegged now.
His old head DROPS
You remember when there was a
lordly arch in that neck. clothed With
thunder But you used the over
check, causing painful tension of the
fiexor muscles of the neck, hindo.ing
full respiration and circulation OF the
blood and causing quick fatigue. Now
he can hold his head up only for a
short time.
Note the punches of gray hair on
Bills back.
Those are saddle gals made by your
hard riding and his willingness 10 go
your gait. You forgot to put a blanket
under the saddle when you hurried
to ride for the doctor or to catch up
with other fellows up road.
He is sweenied also.
You did that. The collar OF one set
of harness failed TO fit Bills shoulders. /
and the names of another set were not
adjusted as well as they ought to have
been. The seasons were dry and dusty.
and his shoulders were often sore.
though Bin never complained!

And his eyes are bad
His normal angle Of vision, as of all
horses, is earthward, but you refined
him up, causing eye strain. And you
drove first with aud then without
binders. Dust and lack Of sunshade
helped, And when Bill got a cinder
or dust in his eye he never spoke
about It and you didn't notice. You
see, the animal simply couldn't Eipe
his eyes.
Blemishes? a
Plenty Of them. Note the bumps and
scars on old Bill's legs. There was a
time when he interfered and you did
not have him properly shod. Turned
Into a field In winter that was fenced
with wire. he could scarcely exercise
himself without injury. You held his
head so abnormally high with your
checkrein that be often stumbled when
moving
Some good in him yet?
OF course. You have not quite sue
ceeded IN killing the faithful old fel-
low, and sometimes, when his diges-
ton has been good and there is a level
stretch Of rcc;@.,1!, somethlGcs Of the old
Spirit gets Into him. But it is pathetic
TO see how soon he Is played out.
There he stands-old Bill.
As he is, SO you have made him.
You have abused him, and he still
loves you and whinnies at your APP
proach. He will live for you and work
for you till he dies.
Take good care of old Bill.
1t may go hard with you some day
If you fail TO do So

a THOUGHT OF FEAR
Behavior Of American Troops IN REC
Face of Awful Death.

One CT the most remarkable events
in the annals Of American arms oe
CURED at Fort Crook, Neb., the o'i'ef
day when a tornado struck the Iiace.
As the dispatches tell IT, ofF.
When the officers realized that TOT.
nado had struck the pest 500 men Of
the Sixth regiment were brought %
Battalion formation and in the midst
Of flying slate roofs and other debris
they We're marched across the parad2
ground to the substantial buildings
where they were put at rest and took
to the cellars. TIE fort was damaged
to the extent of $500 COO
History and fiction alike have dwelt
upon the dauntless spirit of men who
have manifested their willingness to
charge the gates of hell or scale the
heights of heaven" but doubtless no
be ter illustration of this spirit was
ever given than when this devoted
band of American soldiers at Fort
Crook formed ranks to do or die to-
gether in the face of a re5istlesS tor
nado. says the Kansas Ci,y Journal.
Those who have never viewed tie
fury Of one Of these terrible oatbHrsts
of the angry elements cannot imagine
the dreadful reality of the scene Wit
the heavens blacker than night. the
darkness intensified by binding dash
es of lightning. The terrOrs of the
storm multiplied by the terrific
crashes of heavens artillery and Tie
air filed with swirling clouds which
hide all else but the awful figure of
death. the CHASTITY funnelshaped cloud
which makes gigantic leaps along T.
ground, uprooting trees and whirlin
houses, animals and human be.nTs
through the air on the wings of the
death-dealing wind
It is sight to appal the stoatest
heart and to cause he human mind -
realize the utter impotence Of man in
the presence of angry nature. The
charge OF the Six Hundred az Ralax-
lava was trivial incident OF military
duty compared with the steadfast Dis
cipline of the 600 American soldiers At
Fort Crook. who coolly formed in l!ne
and brayed the tornado's fury as
though it were matter of mere rou-
tine duty.

Metallic Mirrors.

The production OF metallic mirror
for searchlights and other such use
is now in demand in Europe Those
made of glass, now used, are OF; ec-
tionable owing to their liability t.
fracture when the guns are fired on
ships, and TO the silyering on the mir
rors blistering and separating from
the glass. A new metallic mirror
made partly by electro-deposition Is
being introduced, The mirror has ?
surface composed of alternate band :
or rings of gold and white rejecting
surfaces. II Is claimed that this mir,
ror gives more penetrating beam o.
light both at night and in foggy
weather; that objects on which such
beam OF light is thrown stand ont
in greater relief than in light
thrown from silver white metal mir
ror, and that the intensity OF the lgh.
is so great that it IS impossible to aim
accurately at the protector. Another
advantage claimed for the new mir
rors is that they are not fractured b.
conclusion. and that even when pen.
Grated by bullets the area OF distor-
ton is very small.
