BARE 0i Will'lli lidliSES Some General Rules That Apply Elther to City or Country .â€".â€"~ 1. ‘Start at a walk, and let your horse work very easily for the first half hour. 2. A heavy draft horse should never be driven faster than a walk, with or without a. load. 3. Look to your harness. Avoid these faults especially: Bridle too lOng or too short; blinders‘ pressing ougth’e eye or flapping; throat-latch too tight; collar too tight or too loose; traces too long; breeching too low down or too loose; inside reins too long, in the case of pairs. 4. Drive your horse all the time. Feel his mouth gently. Never jerk the reins. _ ‘ 6. Take the horse out of the shafts as much as possible; and if you drive a pair or four, unfasten the outside traces while the horses are standing; they will rest better that way. 6. Teach your horses to go into the collar gradually. When a load is to be started, speak to the horses and take a firm hold of the reins so that they will arch their necks, keep their legs under them. and step on their toes. A loose rein means sprawl- ing and slipping, often with one horse » ahead of the other. 7. Water your horse as often as possible. Water in moderate quanti- ties will not hurt him so long as he keeps moving. 8. lankct your horse carefully when he stands, especially if he is at all hot. Repeated slight chills stiffen and age a horse before his time. 9. Bring your horse in cool and ‘ breathing easily. If he comes in hot, ' he will sweet in the stable, and the sudden stopping of hard work is bad ’for his feet ‘ 10. In hot weather or in drawing heavy loads, watch your horse's breathing. if he breathes hard, or short and quick, it is time to stop. 11. Remember that the horse is the most nervous of all animals, and that little things annoy and irritate him. »Remembcr that he will be con- itented or miserable accordingly as you treat him. VLOCKlNS UP THE TOWER v Quaint Ceremony Carried on Nightly in Old London oâ€"r'~ Very few people are aware of an - ancient custom which is still kept up at the Tower of London. Just betore midnight a beef-eater and the chief ysoman porter secure the keys from the governor’s house to “lock up." Having received the keys, they proâ€" .ceed to the guard-room. “Escort for the keys!" calls out the porter, and a sergeant then marches off, and the sentries they} pass is-‘ the usual challenge of “Who there?" to which the answer is “Keys. Arriving at the entrance to the Tower grounds, the Lions“ Gate, the porter locks the gates, and the party returns to the guard-room, the sentry challenging as before and receiving :the same answer. However, on arrival :at the guard-room again, the sentry stationed there stamps his foot, at "the same time giving the usual chal- Llenge. . "Keys," replies the porter. “Whose keys," the sentry asks. “King George’s keys." “Advance King George’s keys, and :all’s well." The porter then says, “God bless 'King George," and all present respond ‘with “Amen.” The .teys are then saluted, and returned to the governor’s ihcuse, where they remain until the :vnext night's ceremony.
