It's impoesible I to get that dislocated shoulder back in I place. Better let me shoot her and put her ' out of her pain." IThe spirited creature was standing, strangely quiet and subdued, one slender fore leg dangling limp and helpless from the shoulder, her whole body trembling as with an ague, and an almont human look of suf- fering in her eyes. Her owner, who held her and soothed her wii h infinite tender- ness of touch and voice while the veterin- ary eurgeon made his inepection, instinct- ively•leid an arm about the graceful neck, and the animal rubbed her pretty head against, him with a piteous mute appeal that made more than one of the stablemen turn away their faces. The little mare was the pride of the Brookracad stables. Bred and trained for speed, a descendant of a famous Kentucky sire, Ore had already captured two rich stekes, and was entered for the next Futur- ity with an excellent chance to win. Mc- Dowell had bought her as a 'yearling, and every man in the stables knew that he loved Sweetheart as if Rho were human. Not even Trumpeter, the Transylvania win- ner, whose value was three times that of the fleet little mare, was half se dear to his owner. L McDowell did not at once reply, " If I should—let her live, Shannon ?'' he eaid at last. " It would be a mis'iaken kindness, eir. She can't get well. She'll never be able to use her leg again and she'd only pine and suffer. Better put her out of her misery." There Wa8 a silence, broken Only by the soft stir of the summer wind an' the stamp- ing of the horses in their stall . No one looked at sMcDowell. He s ood staring straight before him for a little, then dilop- ped the haltereand turned abr ptly away. The poor brute made a futile e ort to follow —stopping short with a groaa that hurt McDowell like a etab. He fa ed the sur- geon desperately. For God's sake shoot st eight !" he said. There was a sharp'report. S annon was a sure ehot, and the bullet ivent etraight to the mark. The mare fell like a log ; the lithe body quiv-ered for an inetant, and was still. Sweetheart's last race was run. At the sound of the shot, an abject figure which had been crouching_ in tele shadowy recesses of an empey loose box in the big stock barn, erept stealthily, tiMorouely to the door. It was Devid, the niare'e , negro gtoom. At the sight that met his eyes he forgot his fears fur himeelf, his terror of his master's anger, his dread of pessible punish- ment, everything except that little Sweet - hear t lay there dying or dead. Sweetheart had been his special charge, hia pet, his pride. He had reached the door just he time to see the mare fall, and before the breath had left her bady he hed darted across the open and thrown himself down upon the ground beside her. " Sweetheart," he murmured brokenly. " Po' lady Po' little gal 1" He lifted the pretty head. " Sweetheart," he sobbed, " don't yo' hear ? Don't yo' know me, honey ?" But the beautiful eyes were already beginning to darken. As McDowell caught sight of the lad hie face changed and hardened. His look was ominoue as he strode svinftly across to where the boy lay, seized him by the collar, and dragged him roughly to hie feet. " You blundering idipt !" Ire said through his set teeth. " Your cursed carelessness Fee cost me the best horse I ever nwned. You ought bo be flegged till you drop !" The negroni face had turned ari ashen gray. 1" Fore God, boss," he said humbly, " I didn't go tale do it ! I thought a heap o' Sweetheart, and I wouldn't 'a' huht her fin the world. I don't, know how come she fell. Dey'd been wukkin' her ovah at de track, and I wux bringin' her heme—the groun' WUZ sorter sor au' slippery heah in de pastuh—ard lore I knowed it ahe wuz down.

If you hadn't had her out t a gallop the fall wouldn't have hurt her . You deserve to be horsewhipped. Get, If the plaee this instant, and don't let me ver see you regain !" " God lerrowe, Mistah ger, I didn't ean---" McDowell was Weide himself with anger. " Curse you !" he cried flex cely. Not other word 1" With a udden savage impulse, of which was bitterly ashamed an instant later, he ruck the boy across the face with the avy riding crop he caeried, and turned, th a muttered oath, towards the house. Parkness, hia trainer, intercepted him. " Wait a minute, please, Mr. McDowell," said. I saw the mere fall, and it real wasu't the boy's fault at all. He was ing at a. c inter, and the mare just slipped d fell. Ir, was partly the way she was od, I think, and it might have happened anybody.

Lady Jeune writes : I have no he5ita- lion in raying that it is the constant drink' ing of etrong tea which makes the women of our toiling marnes delieate and their chil- dren anaemic, for not only do these latter inherit that weakeess inns their mothers, but become even greater sinners in this di- rection than their parents. * We take every precaution that our women servants should be eober, and y, et we allow what is quite as bad as dram drinking to go unno- ticed. It is a constant eccurrenee whei3 engaging a servant to mention that she does not drink beer, No doubt this is true, but as a subetitute ehe takes tea, which, in thee quantity see coneurnes it, is much more harmful than beer." • Believe in Yourself. If you would succeed ue* to the limit of your pmeibilities, hold constantly to the belief that you are succees organized, awl that you will be successful, no matter what oppoeee. Never allow a shadow of a doubt to enter your mind that the Creator intend- ed you to win in life's battle. Regaid every suggestion that your life may be a failure, that you are not made like' those who suc- ceed, and that sneeess is not for you, $3 a - traitor, and expel it from your mind as you would a thief from your I °me. A man's greatest enemies are his doubts. Resolutely refuse to surround yourself with an army of doubte, fears and anxietiee. Vigorously diipel those foes of your success and happinees, or they will undermine your fut ure. De firm'y convinced t hat you wcre made in the image of perfection, designed for success and happinese, and that you have the power to strangle the evils which wculd thwart you.—Succese, Ts: ,f : elE10BWR lonsg. ssi 111:01;e: t i .nnenc1004"013u,rtab atiflogi:::`:Psr,roilart:ci:o ceeeeeeeion .5, tor -To-orthba' oPelceob_Tit,ileaos ''''?:, a17:;11:t:e'f-Bes°javi:thexdbt'se:L°1-1:itrt-by° eviiis.xevirjrc...inianidTil, E. stellesrs.
