what you pretend to be-that you are

AS A GOOD FRIEND.
Intimate Association Between the Arab
and His Horse.

II Is most interesting to note the
way the Arab treats his faithful
friends. So Injured, indeed, is the
Arab pony by long usage and descent
90 the manner of life In the desert
that even my own pony positively i'm
proved on the treatment and / never
saw him so fit as when he came back
from the trip.
If the Arab and his horse are by
legend closely allied, they are in
point of fact even more intimately
connected. His mount is his first
thought, and at all times by far the
most interesting topic of conversation.
He is ungroomed, unclipped, unhal
tered, for the Arab prefers to shackle
him by means of two ropes, a short
cord connecting the fore and hind fet-
locks and a long line lettering him
above the hind fetlock to a peg in the
ground. Thus he can move about Oh
ron at leisure, and should there be
any rough heritage at hand can for.
age for it. Perhaps one of the prind
pal reasons why the Arab so excels At
long Journeys is that the never worries
himself nor does he ever distress his
mount unless there Is real cause to
do SO. He simply continues a steady
walk all day and hardly ever gallops

WHEN THE PHRENoLoeio1 FELL
His knowledge of Horses Was Evil
IDENTIFY q Weak Point.

Mayor Reyburn Of Philadelphia told
at dinner horse story.
"A farmer visited a phrenologist, -
he said. He had heard that the phre-
nologtst thought of buying a horse. He
had his head examined and his bumps
revealed surprising things.
Your tastes are the simple. home.
ly and pure tastes of farmer said
the phrenologist, and a farmer l take
you to be. Am l not right? Aha, |
thought 30. You are unready and fall
tertng in speech; you find it difficult
to express the simplest ideas. You
are sadly deficient in judgment and
have no knowledge of human nature.
Your innocent and trustful disposition
renders you an easy dupe to design
Ing men, and your own perfect hon.
esty prevents you from either suspect
ing or defrauding any one
The phrenologist the following
week bought horse from the farmer.
The horse was knock-kneed, 1t was 25
years old, 1t had a bad temper, and it
baked. Though the farmer had only
paid $15 for the animal, he secured
without difficulty $3.50 from the phre-
nologist for it.
It's wonderful said the farmer to
himself, as he hastened toward the
bank to deposit the money-it's jest
wonderful that a man should know so
much about men and not know thing

Blessings of IdIeness.

Perpetual devotion to what a man
calls his business is only to be sus-
tanned by perpetual neglect Of many
other things. And it is not by any
means certain that mans business
is the most important thing he has to
do. To an impartial estimate 1t will
seem clear that many of the wisest,
most beneficent parts that are to be
played upon the theater OF life are
filled by gratuitous performers, and
pass among the world at large as
phases Of idleness. For in that the
alter not only the working gentlemen,
singing chambermsids and diligent
hddlers in the orchestra, but those
who look on and clap their hands from
the benches, do really play q part and
