1t is we'll to understand that the
southern part Of Vermont was first
settled, and the settlers came mostly
from Massachusetts and New Hamp-

Rhode Island They took with them

The settlers pressed north. Some OF
he towns bordering Canada were not
settled until 1900 The towns bor-
dering Vermont in Canada wore set
tied by pioneers frem Vermont. and
their horses were Vermont horses
Some have argued because thenorth-

Canada, the horse OF Vermont must

origin. This thev have Inferred with

ABOUT BARNARD'S
FINE HORSES
And Something Concerning
the Coming of the Famous
Morgans.
(By Allen w. Thomson.)

When the settlers came into YER
mont there were no roads and the
trail was only known by the lined
trees of the hunters and woodmen
'Oxan were then used tn do the team
work aud they had to pick the beat
routes they could over the rough
nnhroken la,d. Justin Morgan VIII"
brought to Vermont the founder Of
the famous breed Of horses called
Morgans, removed from West Spring
field, Macs, TO Randolph in the
spring nf 1888 on an OK sled.
The stock ran loose in the woods
and the small cultivated patches had
TO be enclosed.
In time turnpikes were made, so
called because those driving on them
had to pay toll Bride paths Or
rough routes were laid from the turn
pixies to those living on the hills.
The horse at first was only used as a
beast of burden. Wagons were hard
~ seen at FIRST. and they were rough
and unconth in looks and style. The
bodies were fastened to the axletrees
the same as the bodies Of the farm
wagons are now. 1t was thought a
great invention when they were hung
on leather thoroughbraces. and ii was
still greater when they gave way to
steel springs.

A Tribute to Grass.

Next in Importance to the divine
profusion of water, light and air
those three physical facts which
render existence possible-may be
reckoned the universal benefcence
Of grass Lying in the sunshine
among the buttercups and dande-
lions Of May, scarcely higher in in

ants of that mimic wilderness, our
earliest recollections are of grass.
And when the fitful fever is ended
and the foolish wrangle Of the mar

has made, and the carpet of the in

BoKHARA'ss POOL.
a Bazaar Day In the Capital "at ths
Back of the World

~ oazaar LAY IN tno SapitaI at tho
Back Of the World"
Bokhara, that strange capital at
the back of the world, on which ev-
cry road in Asia is said to have con-
verged, might well be called the
Mecca of central Asia. 1t is more
than that, for, besides being re-
ligious center, it is also a great cap
.tal and trade center.
The name of Bokhara is well
known, yet it has been visited by
but few. Fifty years ago it was as
impregnable as Lassa, and of the
few travellers who penetrated to
within it's walls fewer still ever
came out again. Bokhara is COM
pletely surrounded by wall, and /
had to enter by one of the eleven
gates. If by chance had been be-
nighted / should have had to stay
outside, or at least leave my cara
van behind and enter by the tiny
door beside the main gate, through
which man can literally only just
squeeze.
When once inside the walls the
whole pageant Of the east burst on
me-intense light and shade, bril-
liant colors, the richness of the
great men and the squalid poverty
Of the beggars, the cleanliness Of
the mosques and the filth of the
streets, the aching glare of the
,loudless sky and the cool shade of
the deep bazaars. Nowhere in the
world, | claim, can such perfect
picture of the unspoiled, unregener-
ated east be seen as in Bokhara. 1t
is as if chapter of the arabian
Nights" had been put upon stage.
Here one looks down through q
long vista of years and sees the east
as it was long before the west ex-
listed.
Let us stand minute beside the
"pool." This is the very heart Of
the city and is situated in square
surrounded by giant madresas and
a motley crowd of booths and shops.
Here at midday the people of Box

mosques near by and to take meal
on the terraces that surround the
pool. Men of every eastern race as
semble here. One can see Afghan
and Hindu, Persian, Arab and Mon
gol, wild looking Turkoman and
slouching Tartar, all enjoying the
delights of a bazaar day in Bokhara,
tat the back of the world"
The ''pool'' itself is nothing but
a large stone reservoir of filthy
water. Under brilliant sky and
shadowed by great trees it makes
fitting foreground to the gay cos
tunes Of the men, the dark bazaars
and the madresas piled up behind.
When saw men on the steps of the
tank washing themselves in this
water | felt surprised, to say the
least But when farther along I
noticed men filling their water skins
from the same supply l realized
that east is really very far from
west.-Professor D. Carruthers in

Why Do You Worry.

'Why do l worry? Because cannot
help it. You would worry if you we're
in my place" How many times has
this little conversation been repeated,
one friend Gliding another for the
puckered brow and frowning look, the
mood of depression and the anxious,
wearied, care-worn slump of mind and
body together, incidental to a habit Of
worry. True, it is easy to say to one
who is overborne by the burdens she is
overborne by the burdens she is bear
ing. that worry will make her load no
lighter. She knows this, yet while she
comedies that worry is doing no good,
she goes on as if she were climbing
a hill and slipping back at every step or
cropping through thick fog, unable to
tree herself from the smothering clutch
of this fend. Three-fourths of the
women patients in a certain insane asy-
lum were said to have reached their
morbid estate and the loss of menta
balance through the influence of worry.
Worry is really waste. 1t wastes ner-
vous tissue, is the enemy of happiness,
and prolific cause and aggravation of
i'll health.-The Christian Herald.
