Tho high tower nt tlio noiitli hIiIo which has recently boon provided with an olovntor nnd un accident iiimiruuco iniichlno in caHo you full later on in tho day is an Important ndjiiut to tho garden.

Tho first thing to do on entering tho show after yon have paid your cntrauco feo is to pass along from stall to stall and oxamluo critically tho tall of each steed. Bach horse is numbered, and if ho bo a horse of great versatility and talent his name will bo given, together with tho nauio of tho man who is at pres ent paying his expenses while in tho city. It is extremely interesting to thus oxamiun tho long lino of tails nnd to bo ablo to tell from tho rear viow, 113 you will surely do, tho character and VI'' r buslnesB himself, nnd whs lias spent his itrly life trading in horsellesh. C1ioom t man who Iiiih passed his whole life on i Long Island stock farm, and whoso mind is Intent on a dozen steeds of his own, who will coino later on and hmj before him and you. Uy doing this yon tvill bo Hiiro to find a man Interested in his subject, aiid by calling his attention to tho points of each horse as hu passes In luvlow.yoii will confer a favor on hu manity. When there Is a lull in tho business, ask him to oj)en his bosom nnd llsh out tho picture of his wife and little ones that ho lias carried around with him for years, that you may wrlto on tho buck of it tho titles of several books mi horses that you Insist upon his rend 'tig. Tell him that hu has a good start and that in time ho will get ho ho can tell a horse when ho sees one. This will please his vanity, and if ho bo tho right jort of a man ho will offer you a ciga rette that he bought in a Brooklyn drug store as he came through from Long Island. Every thing that n horso can do isdono at tho horse show, and many things that he cannot do. A bold, bad villain is placed carefully on the back of n trusted iteed after having been supposed to iteal several millions of government i bonds, and then tho Central park police man, having been previously roused from Ills slumbers by willing hands, is mounted on his Arab steed, and liko tho wind of the desert swoops down upon tho iHior villain, whoso horse, by long training, stops of his own accord, whllo tho horse of the mounted police having, as it Is supposed, Been service on a Broadway horse car, goes right on nnil heeds not the agonizing cries of the mul titude. This is roiientcil sovernl times, until the villain gets tired and goes out to the box ollleo to draw a dollar against Saturday night. VVXi " ,' ' li l? -53 Ik, M JS u y-SX O.E.

This will give tho friend who is with you confi dence in your ability, so that when you como to the few stalls where the fa vored horses stand with their faces to ward tho crowd, you can talk at length about their history, whero they were bom and reured, whether they livo with their parents or not, if they Htnoko or chew, if their habits nre steady, and what the prospects aro for their future advancement. It will even be well for you to stop, and leaning in your free, careless way against a post whero the horse cannot reach you, to address it few well chosen words to tlio stall keeper. Ask him how many measures of oats tho animal is then inclosing per day, and if ho (tho stall keeper) lias been long at tho busi ness. Suggest that the horse's diet be changed in accordance with your ideas, which you can inform him of in a fow telling sentences, and ask to look at the animal's teeth, that you may inform the crowd that is by this time surging around you on all sides just how old he is. When you have passed on his age, ask to JUMPING. A thrilling scene and ono full of great Interest is tho hurdle racing over sovernl fences, which havo been tastefully dec, orated with evergreen; the horses nro made to jump, and it is wonderful how well they do it. Just beforo tho animal rises to meet tho occasion your heart goes up into your mouth with u convul sive throb, as if you were in un elevator, and then you stand trnnMixed us it were, until ho knocks the hurdlo over and you know that all is safe. It is quite a task to keep these hurdles up, so fast aro they knocked down by tho horses, but occa sionally nu animal comes along who jlenrs every ono in succession, and then the crowd cheers and the rider flecks un Imaginary Uy oil his flank its they do in novels. But this is nothing to tho jumping that conies by and by, whero a small man or boy runs his horse along at full speed and then makes him jump up in the air over a stick that keeps getting higher nnd higher. Hero tho excitement is intense. Every onco in awhile n coward horso who has lived east all his lifo and has no lofty aims will .miss firo uud bow his iiead to the mingled shouts of scorn and derision which rise on every side. Then his ridor will take him back and mako him try it over again un til ho makes the fatnl leap, and after striking tho stick gracefully with the end of hianose nnd bringing it to earth again with one fell swoop, ho will retiro from tho Held, unhonored and unsung. Tho most pleasing and pulsating part of tho whole show is tho group of stal lions! who capering nimbly to tho music of the orchestra stand in array in tho arenu. pawing the earth, their graceful necks rising nnd fulling in cadence liko the dipping of a ship at sea. As these noble animals puss in array beforo the vast circle of admirers that look down upon them with enraptured gaze, it sends n pleasing and gratifying thrill over one to know, to feel, that this indeed is not a horse race; that when you go, you go with the pleasant clink of your iuird earned dollars still in your pocket, that you haven't had even to play ono of them for a place, and it makes you glad that you nre still living, even if this is plain New York and not Chicago.

Of course it never can happen perfect happiness 1b" unattainable in this world hut wouldn't lifo bo worth living if the servant girl problem could bo solved? Did any 0110 ever seriously suggest doing away with tho servant girl altogether and establishing Instead the profession of housekeeper? Iuiiigiuo what it would bo to havo the entire domestic machinery in the hands of an intelligent person who would do all the marketing, plan, pro- pure and Mrvo tho meals, pay tho bills, hire her own assistants, in a word, run the hoiibo on a specified sum. Bho would bo treated with as much resjiect as a man's bookkeeper or ste nographer. She' would bo properly lodged and amply paid. Uor position would bo mi honorable ono, which does not mean that sho would bo socially re ceived by tho family in which sho lives, nny more than tho bookkeupor. Thoro is nothing in domestic duties that is degrading. There is n great deal that is haul and much that is distasteful to delicate and refined women. However, it calls for brains and intelligence. There is nothing in the housekeeper plan that is extravagant. A woman of intelligence could manage with less money; she would waste less and she would servo you better than you, with your Bociul duties, your church wore, your sowing, your children and your husband could possibly, because sho would have nothing else to do or to think of.
