The Trouble with the Horse.

An old horseman in northern Mis-.
souri,, who is noted for the meaning he
can put into few words has added q
new anecdote to the popular stories at
the stock yards, says the Kansas City
Star. He was called by neighbor
one day recently to see what was the
matter with an ailing horse. This,
neighbor owns first class stock, but
keeps his barn in the worst possible
condition. The horses are curried as
rarely as the barns are cleaned. He
does little more for his animals than
to feed them and give them water.
When the old stockman came back
from his visit to the neighbours stables
an acquaintance met him.
What was the matter with the
bay?" the man asked.
The old horseman stared solemnly,
then shook his head.
"Nothin,," he answered. He's Just
discouraged"
