good many from being present

THE HORSE HUE.

Something of Its Comparatively
Short But Interesting History.

A horse was ridden long before he
was shod,and until it was learned
bow to put shoes upon bim his great-
est usefulness was not achieved. It
is cause for commert, says the
Horseman, that the ancients did not
really learn to shoe him long before
they did. They did put coverings
u the feet of animals used for
draughtor burden. These coverings
were made of leatber, and even
plaited shoes of hemp were put upon
mules, which, by the way, were
oftener ridden in olden times than
herses were. By and by these were
made of metal, not as the animal's
foot is faced with iron to-day, but a
metal shoe was made into which the
horseTs foot was placed. The mules
| that drew Nero's chariot were shod
with silver shoes, while those for his
wifeTs o~turnout� were of gold. The
shape thereof ~~deponent saith not.�
An old historian tells us that a peo-
ple living in Asia used to draw socks
over the feet of the horses when the
snow lay deep upon the ground, and
way off in Kamtchatka they cover
the feetof the dogrs in the same way.
Tt seems as if all ancient shoes were
put upon the horse and held there
by some sort of lacing or strapping.
War borses were not shod in any
way, for Alexander once is said to
have marched until the feet of his
horses were broken, while in another
expedition of ancient days the ~~cav-
alry was left behind because the
hoofs of the borses were in bad con-
dition.�

The nearest thing we find to the
horseshoe of to-day was found inthe
grave of an old king of France who
died in 481. There were four nail
boles in the shoe, and this is the first
mention of nailing on a shoe. It
might be well to notice just here the
fact that the horseshoe ~~kept evil
spirits away� even as long ago as in
the days of this old king, fifteen hun-
dred years ago, and was doubtless
| placed on his grave for this purpose.
A writer in the Philadelphia Times
says: o~The superstition that asso-

_| clates the horseshoe with luck is very

old, and prevails all through Europe
and in southern Asia. Nobody can
seem to settle whether it is the iron
of which it is made or its shape that
brings good luck. The ancients be-
lieved that fron had wonderful pow-
ers, and when Arabs are overtaken
by great storms they cry: ~Ipon!
Iron! which they do to propitiate
the evil spirits in charge of the
storm. * * * As to its shapea

possesses:
of iron, it is the shape of a crescent,
it has been worn by a horse.�
we find them gilded and berib-
in ~~my ladyTs parlor� and
rusty and red above the stable door,
and all for the sake of the pbantom
oluck,� or to drive away the ~~spir-
its� of our own invention. A shoe
for ~~luck� should never be bung up
with the open end down, because
then the ~~luck will run out.�

In the ninth century they began
to shoe horses, but, strange to say,
only in timeof frost. King William
L. introduced borseshoeing into Eng-
land, and six horseshoes are on the
coat of arms of the descendants of
the man to whom he gave vast
estates for caring for his horses in
this way. Noimprovement bas been
made in horseshoes for years. Bet-
ter iron bas been used and better
oails, but no change has come in
shape or manner of putting them on.

~~Horseshoes made of? Made of
borsesboe iron. A better class of
iron than is used for other things,
and is often made of old horseshoes
melted down. Good nails? Yes. the
Standard and the Ausable are what
we like. Size? ThereTs a quarter
of an inch in difference. That?
ThatTs a muleTs shoe. Mr. Mule has
a narrower and smaller foot than a
horse. Everybody knowsthat. Cut
their toe nails? Yes, every time we
sboe ~em. A man that owns a good
horse donTt trust much to a roadside
blacksmith. He ought to have his
own shoer, just as he has bis own
barber. And thatTs the way ~big
gunsT do with boss horses. I like to
shoe the same horse rather than shoe
after some one else. We fellows
never shoe just exactly alike, and
when I get a horse trimmed I like to
keep him.

WHERE THEY SLEEP.

The Pretty Bedrooms of fFome
Very Famous Women.

Queen VictoriaTs Simple Sleeping Apart-
ments"Lillian KRusselfs Pink Swashell
Room and Mrs. Van Hensselaer Crac-
gers White Swan Hed

Queen Victoria is said to be very
particular about her bed, but her
bedroom is a very simple, unpre-
tentious one. The heavy bed, with
its canopied top and curtains for
keeping all draughts from the royul
sleeper, several chairs, a thick warm
rug. a great table of carved mahog-
any, some pictures, including
a portrait of Prince Albert, com-
plete the apartment in Buckingham

in which hef majesty slum-
bers. Nothing to compare with the
bedchambers of many American
women. Lillian Russell, forinstance,
queen.of comic opera, rejoices in one
apartment which suggests a great
pearly pink seashell Qer little

singie bea is OF Crass, OUT Inisid ana
covered with mother-of-pearl. The
draperies are of white silk bolting
cloth, painted in morning-glories
and lined with palest pink satin.
Soft white lace over pink satin
forms the covering for the bed and
for the hard, round bolster, and falls
on both sides almost to the white
velvet carpet. The dressing-table
is of pink enamel inlaid with wreaths
and cupids of mother-of-pearl. The
oval-shaped mirror is framed in
wreath of porcelain morning-glories.
The hand mirrors, brushes and toi-
let belongings are of mother-of-
pearl, set with jeweled monograms.

The crowning giory of Mrs. Rens-
selaer CrugerTs (Julian Gordon)
room is the bed, which is a repre-
sentation of a swan. Each feather
is exquisitely carved in white en-
ameled wood. A canopy of white
silk falls from the tall, slender neck.
The coverlid and pillows are of white
satin, ruffied with filmy lace. Walls,
carpets and hangings of this exquis-
ite room are of dull pink. The dress-
ing table, with its quaint chair, the
framing of the tall cheval glass and
the carved woodwork of the colonial
mantel-picce are of glistening white
enameled wood. A few choice water-
colors and some bits of rose-flecked
china give a homelike look to the
room.

Mrs. Burton Harrison, anotber
woman who is at orce a social and a
literary queen, has her bedroom
furnished with the old mahogany
furniture in which her great-grand-
mother delighted. The roomy old
bed would make two of any moderna
creation, and the four tall carved
posts reach almost to the ceiling.
By the bed stand carved steps,
which used to be necessary to suc-
cess in reaching the soft embraces
of the feather bed. A tail chest of
drawers surmounted by a smali
looking-giass, some quaint old spin-
dle-back chairs and pictures a hun-
dred years old and more complete
this quaint room.

Over Mrs Frank LeslieTs single
brass bedstead havgs a crucifix of
ivory, which is a work of art in its
matchless carving. A ruy of soft
silky Persian weave covers the floor
of the tiny apartment, and a single
chair completes the furnishings.
The toilet-table and all of its be-
longings are in the little dressing-
room which opens off from _ the bed-
room proper. On certain anniver-
saries the dainty brass bed presents
asomber appearance, for it is draped
in black; the sheets, down coverlids
and pillows are all covered with silk
of inky blackness."Chicago Post.
