From my point of view at the immature ,ge of t,ff o and a half years,, a race was the ielirium of my young ambition. In Us )"ture I ran with the same wild Instinct ,hat prompt� � a bird to soar into the sun - I I ran f oy, in blind obedience to ighl or ,he �jood of the iesort that ootirsed In my reins. I -An, to test* Botherum, who . icrambled after me through the clover,. and hen gave up the chase in desp%ir. I ran for ' " �hs entertainment of the row of screaming )iokaninnies hanging on the *gate and shying 6pples at me. When I had been three months in train - ng, on dry feed, the hard gallop over the *lonel's private course was the only purely iatisfaotory half hour of the day. If- the eather was bad I bad the heart to kick iown my box in my eagerne,so to get out, ind I trod impatiently around the border of ny enclosure like a caged lion, until I had irailed a deep path in the straw. I had my own ideas about the conduct of ny rider. A pair of bare black heele rat - ling on my ribs tickled nle to a frenzy of ef- ort, while the touch of a spur maddened I 'i. ,�. I.: G.. , _ 1 .4 11 na. Ine 001one a a III I M coutala I M English groom, and installed him at the lead of the stable. The darkieb listan- id, incredulous, to this lad's boasts of his irowess, and turned the whites of their eyes cornfully on the glory of his racing togs. One evening, after tea, a race was made ip in which I was pitted against- Miss ? .,unice's cart pony, -ridden by my own room, while. I was'to be mounted by the Alliant chief of the stable in all his finery. I .he family and servants had congregated long the fence at the starting point, and very black groom had his tongue in hia beek. We were off at the word, the pony t his best pace, and I galloping at his side, a proud contempt of his powers, the' darky rumming on his ribs with his black heels, I nd mooking aoross-at my rider. We had �one half around the course at this easy ace', when I felt the reins tighten, and, at he same moment, the cruel spare 3truck my �anks. My blood was up like a flash. 'rorn the inner side of the track I iolted into the ploughed round, as dry and Ight as a bed of ashes. I heard the abonts nd laughter of the spectators. I isw stare hrough the chaos of dust, and at the end of , series of mad Plunges and kicks, I emerg- d from the red cloud on the opposite side of he track, and galloped riderless in ahead of ay rival. - I The new groom had been added to the table for the express purpose of riding me a 4he two-year-old stakes at the approach. ag Kentucky Derby. I took a vicious dis- ike to him from my first experience in his ands. If ho'left off his spurs I permitted ,im to ride me, but I took care to do my est work when my,old groom, Butternut . im, was in the stable., The excitement increased daily about the table as the time for the race drew on. Vhen they were off duty, the boys rollad bout 62 the straw outside my window making in the sun, and laying their small, ate. 11 What make yo' ain' bettin' nuffin' on elim, yo' Jim ?" I heard a voice ask. "Whatfo'Iain'? liagotshalfadolla' ato that coltafo' I knowed dat cockney wine ride 'im. I ain'no'fool nigger,'I ain'. con's I yer dat news I done: hedge . long o' lose, see ? An' I doubled ,dat hedge. I one lay ever' nickel I got 'gin de colt— igges'kiud o' odds." And true to his rorda, when Jim found the riding was 8ttled, he laid'every dollar he could raise gainst my success. He bet all his personal iroperty on the outside favorite, and staked is next mouth's wages %ph.* me at such dds as he could get. Jim WaQ P111114110611'r boclable when he rub- . j ed me aown, and the night pending the rest event he stood before uie with tears a his eyes, in the seclusion 6f the box. " It .ain' yo' fault, .Selim, boy ; yo's got asy winner rit in yo' eye, ef ever Butter. ut Jim was in de saddle, see?

" . There were few eyes closed in sleep among he excited stable boys who sat bolt upright nd polished bits by the glimmer of lanterns nd Sewed scrape of orange and black—the olonel's racing colors—on bats and coats. ' i,'ven Jim tooted about in the straw, and alked in his brok-3n sleep, and was up be- Dre day, bemoaning his fate. � Before the sun touched the highest weath- r vane on the stables, the colonel's 4tring ras on the road, blanketed and hood4d. I 7as led by Butternut Jim, radiant in his ightest and loosest jockey outfit, for Jim ras sure to be in: demand as a rider, though e was, for the moment, eclipsed by the im- orte4professional hand. So near were we I - D the . ,.-great track that we were shut up in ur an 11 Ug quarters before the dew was -off the ' rass.11 dotherum was with me, and there � I ,as 60 love lost between him and the Eng- sh grolorn. The goat Seemed to absorb my t �mper, for I was in the worst of humors, nd dstermined to fight my rider. The box ran elbse and hot. By the noises outside - I new I ' that there was the greatest activity on he grounds. When Jim looked in I was leased and calm, but when he was away, ad the cheering from the grand stand Dunded like distant thunder, just a back - round of murmur to the shouting and latter of hoofs by the stables, I kicked at ' ,othbrum, and struck out with my fore feet t the walls. . When, at last, Jim led me out into the anlight to saddle, I forgot my temper in he sweet, open air, on the fr& rant turf, in �e midst of the glitter and color and exci- 5ment—and Jim, I tossed my, head for )y, and felt the flutter of the wind in my erves. . I was the prime favorite in my class, and & we passed down towards the track, I � eard many a wager placed to my credit. Two to one on Selim Bjanche against alamity.2' " Salim even against the- , field." b was old-fashioned betting in those da,ys, Vhen the cloth was stripped offj a. Rreat hout went up from the crowd of my ad- drers. In the midst of my pride and joy at ais ovation from fair women and critical ien, the small English jockey came forward nd took - my reins from Jim. When my ye fell on his spurs and goad, a 'surge of assion ran through by blood. A few other olts were out for . their warming -up runs, ud Calamity was moviag handsomely, as ocile as a sheep. . .There was . a fine, scramble before my )ckey was got into his seat, in which I 4led away, then rushed against the groom, nd ,reared and bit and struck out, to the � isguat of my backers, and to the amuse- ient of everybody else. . " Plenty of temper " " There's nerve. for on,)) " He can't win:)) were some of the Dnimenta I heard. And then the calm voice I the colonel -. " Have patience, gentle- ien, until the colt gets warnied up, and e:ll show you a pace." , I Not with this outfit," I thought ; And 1 Its so much better'n most folks' butter, they � i are willing to pay a good rrice for't.

I a worse I behaved the smaller my, odds dwindled on my chances, until it was even money against the Calamity colt before 1 had started for' my exercise. I made a handsome. rush down the track, and then whirled sad came back, and. got whip and spur for my reward. Then the fight was on. I plunged and bolted from side to side of the track. I sheared against the palings and reared and kicked like 6. demon, dur. ing ,which my torm6ntor stuck fast to the saddle, and I was forced to have some re- spect for his skill. Now � ' I tried another school of tactics, and shot halt around the . course at a, pace that brought a ringing cheer from the multitude, and then, with a desperate bolt, I cleared the inner rail ; and, after a series.of frantic plunges on the turf, I shook off my plucky rider, giving him Such a serious fall that he lay still on the ground until the crowd Tusbed over and picked him up. While this entertainment had been in pro- gress, my stock among the book -makers. had fallen away below par, and the colonel, con- fident in my ultimate tractableness, had booked the bets recklessly at handsome odds against me. . A dozen grooms were after me in the field, but I eluded them all and trotted, over to ' Jim, who fell on my neck for joy. When ' we came up to the colonel, Jim, who had .not dared to mount me without orders,. ad. dreamed him, cap in hand : , . "I kin ride him, Mirse I Colonel. He wo�'t cut up no monkey shioes. long o' Jim. Selim. an' me unerstans one 'mr, see ?" There wag nothing for it but to tom up Jim into the � saddle, - who was fluttering I with,orange and black, and away we went withan easy gallop,'� making the circuit of the course in the midsi of an ovation to Jim. Then we took half the: track at a flying pace during which I took half of the circuit to myself, and it was the proudest moment of my life when we galloped by the grand stand ringiDg with plaudits an' d bravos and 11 Selim.

The colonel held, my bridle with his own hands, while :Jim, with his ,saddle under H8,arm, mounte& the scales P,s if he had been called to a throne, The col- onel was evidently pleased. � and confident, and I rubbed my nose on his hand as much �s to say : " Jim and I will "Vake care of your � 1ptmet"", � , . Was %6re a long timeln getting away, which was entirely due to the misbehavior � of the other youngsters, and when the flag did fall Jim and I were against the outside rail and easily last in a field of twenty. As . we came down to the first quarter pole the rack was coxisi4erably strung out, and I 'Was gobag smoothly in the rear bunch with- I out a sound or a maotion from Jim. The Calamity colt with the green and white colors was at about the middle of the string, evidently holding himself in reserve. Jim's money was there, but I know he had thrown it away in his heart. As we came down the second quarter, the jockeys at the front were already urging their mounts and swinging their whips in the dust. Still not a movement from Jim. He had his eye on the greea and white, and I felt the encour- aging pat of his hand on my shoulder. As we came into the stretch leading up to the grand stand, the Calamity colt pulled out of the crowd sod began to creep up on the leaders, and at the same moment a brown colt came alongside me at a slashing pa -.e. Then I felt the pressure of Jim's knees. With my nose lapped over the flank of tile brown we moved past the laggards. The grand Stand was on its feet- shouting for favorities, among whom Calamity was evi- dently the most popular. The green and white was now well to the front, where the � colts that had been holding the lead were falling back. Neck and' neck with the ' bro.wn colt, bre%thing easily, with plenty of reserve speed, I spun along the third quar- ter, obedient to the gentle pressure of Jim's knees, and steadily . lessening the lead of Calamity, who was now at the front, '.. A roar of encouragement surged up from the grand stand, and ran in broken waves of cheering around,the course. Every eye was fixed on its favorite colors, and the heart of the great throng stood still as we rushed into the last quarter. I knew that the gaze of the good old colonel yvas some- where fixed breathless on my white form, and as I steadily. moved by another and an. other of my rival& I felt that- he saw and approved. Jim's black face was close. to my neck. I could hear his his�ing breath. Hit knees closed hard on my Shoulders. We were half way down the home stretch. The green and white colors were flaunting in?my face. I was t%king the dust of Calamity, with the brown'bolt close on my flank. I When in Jim's judgment the supreme -moment had come, he uttered a whoop of encouragement, and his boot heels for the first time rattled love taps on my ribs. I /leaped forward in a frenzy of excitement. I was abreast of Calamity. The orange and black moved past' the green and white, inch by inch, despite the raining of blows on the siden Of my exhausted rival. The multitude roared with one voice. I breathed free of dust. The wind surged in -my ears. I felt the fury of a demon. I was mad. The world was flying by tl�e ot ' her way. The Chinese pagoda of the judges ahotback- ward and melted away,,, like an object in a dream, and I awoke td the clanging of the i bell behind me. , - I " Selim Blanche !" I I Selim,131and - he !" The two year old stakes " in the Kentucky Derby were handsomely: won. The brown colt was second, by -a head, and Calamity third. 11 When we cam'e Jback to the stand, Jim rolled off into the arms of the colonel, who I promptly doubled hie losses. , I . 0 Farmer Gordon's Economy. - Stephen,Gordon was a rich farmei; -Broad acres, fertile lands and money at interest were his, but with all this he was always talking economy. "We niuBt economize" in this or that or the other, wa�s always his theme. His family consisted of a wife and three boys, and an uncle of his, an old man of more than 70 years. O'ne morning he eDtered the kitchen where his wife had just been working over butter, and had the great balls ready for market. ' "My ! Hannah ! What butter ! It makos a fellow's mouth water to look at it, and I've got forty cents a pound all winter ; - 9 this spring ; I've got to have a new horse and wagon, and several new fences, and I don't know what. I tell you, wife,we must economize all we can," said Stephen an he � left the room. Yes, that was always the way when she wanted anything;, perhaps she might, have it sometime, but now she must economize. This her husband said five years ago, and she was using the old cracked stove yet. It was just so About everything in the house. Her home was bnsre and comfortless. Did'nt she economize in everything ? Wasn't her own wardrobe threadbare, and also that of her boys ? Did'at she patch their clothes. until it was time wasted to -patch them more? Did'nt she economize in everything but her table ? Oh yes !—and the little woman rattled her dishes in a way that surprified Uncle Moses in the corner; She would eoonomi7e so as to make Mr. Gordon feel it. 11 Hannah, you shall have a butter worker if you want it," visid Uncle Moses. I I No, Uncle ; I will have one, but you shan't give it to me. Stephen can afford it, or I would not have asked -him, I have taken too much from you alreadl, butt now I'm going to economize so that can have all I need. E(usband is always talking economy to his f4mily, but I can't see any � way that he praci�ixeB it himself ; but he in going to. " The next day i6t dinner, Mr. Gordon amid, " I guess you forgot to put cream on this . h.'� 11 No, I didn't forget, but I am saving my cream for butter, I must make all I can, f of, we must economize." . And -a little later : - "I'm ready for pie now,wife. Perhaps you have one of those nice &ddings that are just what I like," � " No, Stepheu, I have neither. It costs a great deal to make pastry and puddings, and it takes time, too. We must economize 64 Papa, can't I , have a sled ? You amid last winter perhaps I might this winter," said little Willie, the 6 -year old. "And can't I have a pair of skates ?" said Fred, a boy of 10. 11 It is such good skat- ing, lease buy them for me, papa." 66 Ko, indeed', boys, we must economize. I never had & sled or skates, and I guess you can do without them." � 11 You must have lostlots of fun then ; I'm real sorry for you," said Wiliie, with tears in his eyes. I I I shan't let my boys go without them when I'm a man." � A week passed by. In that time the Gordon family had no pastry, cakes or pud- dinga, Now, Mr, Gordon liked all kinds of sweetmeats, and it was hard for him to do without them. He craved them so much that when be went to the store be 1"bouTht half -a -pound of block sugar and 6 led is pockets. He had never economized on his I living, and he prided himself on setting as , good a table As any one in town. . Ongoing home one night he found the � � minister and his wife making a call. He was glad to see them, of course, and now, he thought to himself, Hannah will have a decent supper once more. But what was his consternation to see. as he seated himself , at the table, nothing but bread and butter, ' . cold boiled ham, and apple -sauce, " Well," said Mr. Gordon to his wife, " I'm afraid the pastor will think your sup - I per a scant one," . . I 11 I'm sorry, Stephen, but the fact Is, we have been economizing lately, and they came so late that I had no timo to prepare any- thing different." " This delicious bread and butter needs no apology,_ to say nothing of the other good things," said the clergyman. . Poor Stepken I his pride was deeply hurt as he contrasted this table with others, that had been spread in honor of his pastor's visit. 11 Have you met with losses recently," asked the pastor's wife, with concern. I# Oh, no," said Mrs. Gordon, "but in the spring, on a farm, there are a great many t4 , inge wanted, and we are economizing in oroer to meet expanses." 1-1 The next morning Mr. Gordon called on a neighbor, Mr. Jones, to pay him for a pair of � young cattle. ; f' Here is the mouey for the steers," said , Mt. Gordon, handing him a roll of bills. �, re, Jones was working over her butter in Phe kitchen. She had a butter worker, an i �t was astonishing how fast she made th� butter into cakes and etsmded them, dr4ining out every drop of buttar-milk with A exertion, while Mr. Gordon �-�-d'y any ,ched h r. :I Got a butter worker, I see." I Yes, and I don't know how I ever lived � wit out one. It is so easy working butter no compared to what it used to be. Why, it u ed to make me so tired to work over so muc�,h butter that I wasn't good for anything for �'wo days afterwards." 64 Here, wife, is twenty dollars you want- ed f�r a, clock. Give Mr. Gordon a. receipt for fifty dollars." � Mr. Gordon stared. , - Twenty dollars for a clock I When had he given his wife that aurn for anything ? He looked around the kitchen. Here was a model range, a sink and everything con- venient and had ' dy with which the farmer's wife could do her work. What a contrast to Hannah's kitchen ! He well knew .that he was better able to afford such an outfit than his Dei*hbor was. On returning Mr. Gordon first stopped at the barn. Here everything was in order and everything convenient to work with. Was it po6sible he had made Hannah do all the economizing. . In one corner of the shed was something that looked like a sled. His little boy had been trying to make one, and the words of the child rang in his ears : 11 I shan't let my boys go without them when I'm a man." . He went into the house. "Where in Hannah?" he inquired of Uncle Moses. 11 She's gone over to see Stile's sick child. " The farmer Sat down and took his paper, but his thoughts were too busy to read. He had never look so mean in his own byes be- fore. He was, still angry with his wife for humbling him so the night before, by giving the minister and his wife such a supper, Yet . now, an he thought it over, he wondered how he could have blamed her. 6' Uncle Moses, how much do you think it would cost to clothe a woman for a year ?" 11 It never cost much to clothe your'n ' " said be, his black eyes snapping.

I - . - - The Ideal Traveffing Satchel. � . , How many women know how to pack a ' 'travelling bag propetly—to pack it so that there will be a convOient place for every- thing, and so that things can be t&keu from their corners and reolaced, without a com- plete upheaval and public exhibition of the contents " writes Ed1th Gray in a practical article on 11 The Art'! of Packing a Satchel " : in the June Ladies" 11ome Journal. The following method of packing a satchel has been found after n�atioy trials to be by far the most convenient arrangement of the I small belo� lugs which it is necessary to � take on it raifroad or isteam-boat journey. T he ideal travellin� satchel is the square - topped, wide-moutheld %ffair, which is fash- ionable.at the present time, the inside covers of which have a strip of leather made Into receptacles intended for the convenience of small articles, such as the button- hook, tooth brush, nsil-file, scissors, etc, It contains two pockets, at the ends, pot at the sides, and can be made to hold quite a quantity of things As a rule the receptacles in the strips of leather require a small button -hook and tooth-brush—the �bristles of the latter should be protected by the sm&ll adjustable tin box sold for this purpose—a nail -file, glove -buttoner, stylographic pon, pair of scissors (to which a small ribbon bow ol some bright color in tied, for easy identifica. tion), penknife and lead pencil with rubber sheath. In one of the pockets place three our four extra pocket handkerchiefs, a second pair of gloves, an extra veil, and a small envelore of court platter, and in the other an envel. ope containing some postals, a couple of ad- dressed envelopes, one or two telegraph blanks, and a few sheets of writing paper, or better still, a small writing tablet with blotter. A stampbox containiog with others ' one or two special delivery stamps, should also be placed in this pocket. If the satchel is not provided with the beforementioned strip, this pocket should contain also the pencil, penknife and the stylographic pan in a secure case. In the other -pocket drop the nail -file, button -hook, glove -buttoner and In the bottom of the �ag place a light - I weight (silk preferably), dark -colored Moth- er Hubbard wrapper, for use as a night robe on sleeping -cars, and . a small towel, A toilet -case made from a strip of linen with tying striugs of ribbon or tape and plainly marked "hadr," 6hould contain brush, comb .and a box of hairpins. A similar roll mark. ed 4's�wiug," should hold a needle- case, well . � N . filled with coarse and, fine needles, spool# of block and white cotton, ij ambers 40 and 60, small oushion atockeCt Nith black, white and safety plus, a bag v, i h a few buttons, small scissors, and a eel jaloid thimble, the lose of which will not be regretted t, s a mat. ter of value. A soap box of tin or celluloid �%ys for itself in convenience many times, spooge-bag of oil milk or of some .rubber - lined material ' can either be purchased or made cheaply. A whisk brash should be adjustably fastened to the interior of the bag, and thus equipped the traveller Is proof against dirt and disordered apparel. Take also an inexpensive black- folding fan, and a pair of rubber overshoes, wrap. I ed in some dark cotton material. I Polishing the Silver. I Since so much sterling silver and plate enters into some part of the table -cutlery it is necessary that one ehould ailea keep in , mind the !)eat, methods of treatiog it. A perfectly safe substance for cleaning this metal will always be found in French whit- ing. For all ordinary purposes such whit- ing, wet with water, is all that is necessary; but if the silver is very much discolored It shoul(I be wet with alcohol. o. This wil . I give n brilliant polish. It is important that the I materials uFed to clean silver should be per- � fectly free from any gritty substance, The whiting should be sifted through a hair sieve or a piece of muslin, to insure against any- thing that might scratch the late. Silver, as well as steel, mubt be wasted perfectly clean before being rubbed with the pollsbing mat,3rial, A soft silver�bruoh will be.requir- ed for brushill the chased ana ropousse work, which i�kfound on nearly all the silver h%ndled knives. Only substances which are well known fiave been suggested for the cleaning and c.iire of the various articles spoken of. a A Disappointment.
