gence That 10 vouched for
by Traveller.

Hamdanie. an Arab horse owned by
Pierre Ponafidine during his travels In
the Moslem East, was universal fav-
orite on account of his docility and
intelligence. Mr.. Ponafidine says, in
Life In the Moslem East that 1t was
pretty sight to see him tease his groom
when the man was cleaning the
stables. With his teeth he would sly
ly undo the mans belt, extract his
handkerchief from the capacious Arab
pocket, or take on his grooms hat
and hold 1t In his teeth high up almost
out Of reach.
Another time he showed an almost
human understanding. Mrs. Ponafi-
dine was riding him. We were re-
turning from ride one evening, and
as we entered the town, we had to
pass through an arc:hway and then
turn sharply into narrow lane. Just
as we entered the arch, with my wife
leading the party. band OF children
came racing down the lane, and one
after the other, as they turned the cor
ner, they ran into Hamdanie. who was
cantering and, as usual, prancing.
Il turned cold with horror as fore
saw the awful accident that seemed
unavoidable. The wise creature un-
derstood the danger as well as l did.
and in second stopped short and
threw himself back sitting literally
like dog on his launches with fore
legs well spread, receiving one after
another the children who ran full into
his arms, as 1t were. Hard as the
position was for horse and rider, he
kept 1t up until the last child had run
round the corner into him. The lit
tie ones picked themselves up. quite
unconscious of the fate from which
the horses Kindness had saved them"

Get Ruas First.

A specialist on the subject OF rugs
says that in furnishing a room the rug
should be chosen first. Then the dec
orations should be decided upon. that
they may above all things be in har-
mony with the rug. Walls toned to
harmonize with rugs are better than
those papered.
