 Diana's father labored unsuccess- fully to sell his engravings. His work was not in demand, until one day to him came stranger who, posing as a member of the Treas ury Department, gave him a com mission to make duplicate plates of government notes. While her father was working on the plates, Wrenshaw, the supposed Treasury man, made love to Diana and they were married. but on the morning of the marriage, the Secret Service raided the rooms of Diana's father and in the ensuing fight her father was killed and she believed that she had killed man herself.
 Arriving at the country estate, she found that Wrenshaw, whom she had left the day after her mar riage. was employed as a secretary to her mistress's husband. Also Dessclway was invited for the

gree in greater of less degree to the thoroughbred
 Behind the thoroughbred is the Arab blood with it's long history of wonderful endurance, great per formance and many attractive and
 useful qualities.
 The racing of the thoroughbred
 horse enables the breeder frequent.
 ly to select the best among the animals which he may bred and trained. By the development of the fittest therefore, the strain of blood ity is elevated. Without racing 1t is true that much intelligent breed ing still would be carried on, but it would not be brought to so logi- cal a conclusion nor would the value If the animal be comparable in any degree with the value placed on him today. A careful record of what the English horse has done on the plains of France for the last three years is the strongest possible en- dorsement of the above statement and the wonderful batteries of light artillery which have been horsed by animals of splendid breeding bear earnest testimony to the power of this strain for army work
 We may go further and say that the cavalry horse of both France and England claim it's strength and endurance largely from the animals selected either from racing stables in Great Britain or France or from the progeny of animals who in their day have been raced. It is well known that the Italian government and the Austrian government in their wonderful breeding farms for cavalry horses have long recognized and availed of this fact In our own country we have failed to do it justice, partly because of the utility of the trotting horse and partly because we were nation without a standing army of any great numerical strength; but this latter condition is changing and we shall soon know and feel that the government is seeking for the class of horses of high quality, great en- durance and able to do prolonged service.
