Major J. B. Chriatoffel's horse wan¬ dered from her own flreside last Tbars¬ day evening about 6:30 and rambled, rambled—well sbe rambled all about tfae town until 11:30. Likewise did tfae major, only tfae major faotfooted, hardled, and did the 100 yard dash in quite 10 seconds flat twice or more times, and that, too, handicapped by an ap-to-date searchlight atrapped to hia middle. We don't see wby tbe major afaoald bave been thos handi¬ capped. It doesn't seem to as that tfae horse treated bim fairly. Of course, witfa tbe light tbe major coold eee tfae horse; but, ding dong bell, paasy's in tbe well—^the horse eoold see tfae major. But tbe major had the aympatbetic encouragement of his un- regenerate neighbors. The faor«e thought he was a lightning bug and tbe neighbora peering out uncertainly behind queationing shutters, only an ordinary bug. Let no one smile at the situation, remembering tbe awfal test of moral character involved. Far be it from us to make light of it. Tbe horae's name was "Beauty," at least tfaat was ita name at balf paat aix, but \ the major didn't call it tbat at balf paat eleven. The queation ia when is a horae not a hurae. When it'a an aas. Tbe major aaid that he would sell the horse for flve cents. Tfaia seems like a ridiculously low price for a horse, bot that's wbat be said. However, if one mentions horse to tbe major, it may be dangerous, so there's tbe rub, for wbat's a horse to a man's life? Of course, there'a the telepbone. You ean get bia number there. Now, just a little fViendly advice. Major, for the next time. You abonid talk to tfae borse. A faorse likes it It likes tfae sociability of it. We lost a stray eat tfaia week because we weren't sociable enoagb. Tfae borse can easily learn a dozen or more words witbout overtax¬ ing tfae brain, that ia, the horse's, we mean. For instance, "Walk" might mean for tbe beast to change at once from a ron to a walk. "All right,'* spoken in a calm, reassaring tone, woald mean "don't be afraid, tbat won't hurt you." "Miss, to yoor room I" tnigfat be good for an occasion' of a tendianey to ramble between tfae hours of 6:80 and 11:30. Speak firm¬ ly, but not sfaarply. Talking to voor borse. Major, will make yoa popular witb faer. Bat, tboagfa it be well to talk to tfae faorse, tfais can be inter¬ preted only by a generous stretch of poetic license to mean "to say things."
