"Gldley was a raw recruit just enrolled in a crack cavalry regiment and paying his first visit to a riding-school, " 'Here's your horse," said the. instructor, and Gidley advanced gingerly and took hold of the bridle. Then he examined his mouth minutely and, pointing to the saddle-girth, asked: " 'What's it got that strap around its waist for?" " 'Well answered the instructor, without cracking a smile, "all our horses have a sense of humor. They like to laugh, and sometimes, when there are recruits arouna, we nu>c iu put those straps to keep 'em from bustin' their aides.'" Los Angeles Times. In Dear Old England.

"I have been suffering right sharply from rheumatism, yur of late." "You don't 'pear to limp none. Whurabouts is the rheumatism at?" "In my wife's back- She can't skurcely work a-tall, and everything is piling up on me."?Country Gentle pony. One Indication. "When we see a round-shouldered man driving a skinny team attached to a ramshackle wagon and followed by Ave or six dogs, what does it indicate?" severely demanded the spectacled northerner. "That the feller is only tollable fond of dogs, I reckon," replied Gap Johnson, of Rumpus Ridge, Arkansas. Art for Art's Sake. "The desideratum of things artistic," mused the guy ( with the temperament, "would be a wedding between the girl on the front page of a current magazine and the fellow on the collar advertisement."
