Start at walk, and let your

"A heavy draft horse should never
be driven faster than walk, with or
without a load.
Look to your harness. Avoid these
faults especially: Bride too long or
too short -Blinders pressing on the
eye or tapping. Throat-latch too
tight. Collar too tight or too loose,
or dirty on the inside. Shaft-girth
too loose. Traces too long. Breech-
ing too low down or too loose. Inside
reins too long, in the case Of pairs.
DO not let your horse drive him.

err jerk the reins; to do that is the
sure mark Of bad driver.
TRY to deliver your load with as
little backing as possible. Backing a
ncavy load is apt to strain the hind
legs
Take the horse out of the shafts
as much as possible; and If you drive
a pair or four, unfasten the outside
traces while the horses are standing;
they will rest better that way.
Teach your horses to go into the
collar gadually. When a load is to be
stated, speak to the horses and take
a firm hold of the reins SO that they

Water your horse as often as pos

will not hurt him, SO long as he keeps
moving.
Blanket your horse carefully when

Bring your horse in cool ard

BELIEVE THAT PERUGIA
 HAD NO CONFEDERATES
Paris Magistrate Thinks He Stole
 Mona Lisa" Unassisted.

Paris, Dec 15.-Moyed by public criticism at the failure of the finger print department to identify Vincenzo Perugia two years ago, the Paris police are working day and night to ferret out every detail bearing on his life and connections in Paris.
 M. Drioux, the examining magistrate who has had charge of the case since the theft of the painting. is inclined to believe Perugia acted alone, as he says the Mona Lisa" is not large, the off, cial measurements being 77 by 53 centimetres Even with the heavily decorated frame the weight would not exceed 35 to 40 pounds. A man of ordi- nary physique, who was accustomed to handling pictures, as was Perugia, would have no great difficulty in de- taching it and carrying 1t the few yards to the closet where 1t was taken out of It's frame If Peurgia had ac- compIices. the magistrate thinks 1t must have been to aid him In getting the picture out of the Louvre without being observed.
