Timidity Of the Horse.

The horse is by nature timld AMI
NAL, as. generally speaking, all AMI
mails are to whom nature has given
powers of swift flight as their chief
means Of self preservation. OF course
individuals differ in this respect. but
the rule Is so general that 1t should
never be lost sight of In training. That
the horse can be trained to war simply
shows the extent to which his natural
impulses can be modified and subdued
by the art Of man.
Breeds of horses differ in regard to
natural timidity. The pure bred Arab
is beyond all comparison the most
fearless horse in the world. 1t is pos
sible that this may be owing in part
to the fact that his natural develop
ment was for long ages In an open
country, where he was not in constant
danger from unseen foes, but chiefly /
think because he Is higher evolu-
tionary type than any other horse

Wood and Water.

Absolutely dry wood Is unknown, foi

believes that sufficiently powerful

wood cell is composed Of crystals like
grains Of sugar or salt and that thin
films Of water hold the crystals apart,
yet bind them into a mass. A good
microscope shows the wood cell and
reveals Its spiral bandages and Its
openings and cavities, but no instru'
ment yet made reveals the ultimate
crystals that. as many believe, do ex'
