In Nottingham, Eng., a few weeks ago, a teamster loaded his wagon so heavily that the horses sowid ot start it. He began lashing t al swearing, and a crowd gathered, but no ome would take a lift at the wheels and help the horses get a move on. The driver was still lashing away when a 's horse standing across the road rushed at him, seized him by the arm and bit so savagely that he had, to go to the hospital for treatment. 1f the horses would stand by each other this way there would soon be an end to the cruelties seen every: day in the cities. The man who lashes a horse because the horse can do no more than he can deserves a sentence to jail. Neckwear. .
