THREE POOR OLD HORSES
Taken Care Of by the Local Society
With the Long Name.

The officers of the Waterville Society
for the Prevention of Cruelty to Ami
mails have been keeping busy during
the past days and three poor old
horses. one in Fairfield and two in
Oakland have been laid away. AL
NEST every worn out old horse that
falls into the hands of the society
proves to have been the property of
some man who get life's work out Of
the animal and who could have we'll
afforded to have given 1t comfortable
burial. He could have done so but the
small amount of money that he could
get for the horse looked so good to
him that he was persuaded to part with
the horse to person who abused the
animal in its old age. Nothing could
be meaner.
