TIE IN THE SHADE.

This Is the most trying period oi the year on that ever faithful servant of man--the horse. On broiling Au- gust day in several instances a horse may be seen tied and gasping ter breath In the sun.
 Attention is called to the fact that the small head shades. and the little pettings about the head. and the harness, Will also save your horse much discomfort during this weath- CT.
 The horse is dumb and therefore cannot make known his wants or lhis appreciation of wants cared for. But 1t is little thing on the part oi man to give care to this dumb brute while enjoying the fruit of his labor and discomfort.
 There are drinking fountains about the city which should be visited reg. nlarly. As you suffer and toll in the heat of the tropical sun, have a Thought also for your horse.
 Few people who own horses can reserve them out of the heat of the day, but there are none so poor but can contribute the little things that will make the life of the horse dur ing this heated term more endura ble. and few but who can Tighten his load with a little humane interest and attention.

To-day some folks say children nave no
right to love even If they know now, Dut
since our greatest poet does not ma fault
with the two young folks for the secret
marriage why should spectator censure
the work of the greatest dramatic artist
that the world has ever known? on. why
find fault with lovers at all, because II love
is sanctioned In heaven II will be everlast-
ing on earth? They were united in mnd,
therefore no reason for delaying legal pro-
ceedings Some say that children have not
had opportunities or experiences, so Just
take the first chance. but this is not the
case with our two friends.
Unfortunately the scheme OF the mutual
friend did not prove successful. So when
Romeo came and found Juliet under the
influence Of the feigned deathly poison he
supposed: her 10 be dead and Immediately
drinks to his death just few minutes be
fore Juliet regains consciousness. She
awakens only to find him already In death.
Poor fellow, he did not stop to think II
worth while to live that he might keep her
memory sacred. nor did she care to live and
let her uncomfortable love now into an
other channel or to stand stagnant TO be

Again. Just one word more, IL you please,
and then you may reflect In quietness:
MAY no one let the natural beauty or
woman or the concelted air Of man ever
lead him to enter an eternal tragedy, be-
cause love is not love that ends thus. Love
is love that always loves; love Is love that
lives to love: love Is love that loves to
live
