The Persia of reality is far diflerent from the Persia of romance and imagination. In is a land withuul roads and Without ciVIliZation. The rough bridle paths speak unmistaka- oly to the tourist of a non-progressive people. The saddle is in general use, and the best horses are the Arabs. and otter them come the Turoomaus. Some of the latter attain to great 8129, and are used by the rich ior display. The average Turcoman is a fleet and hardy horse, capable of gaing from 100 to 150 miles without rr st.

When the master contemplates a raid, he gradu- ally reduces, foraperiod of thirty days, the food and water KIIJWBDOB of the horre, and thus inures it to privation. Grass dose not grow in the Vicinity of Teheran and the principal food of the horse is barley, excrpt tor two months each year, when the daily ration is of herbs possessed of laxative properties. Outside of the gates of Teheran is the race-course, the longer circuit of which is about five milel. Ouly one meeting is held each twelve- month, and it is at the beginning of the Persian New Year, the opening of spring. Arabians, Tureomans, and a cross between the Cossack and Turcomau compete, and the chief race is five circuits, or about twenty-one miles. Mr. Schierhrand saw the distance run in 27 minutes 47 sronnds. Either the time taken‘ was not correct, or the winner was a woniertully good horse. The purses were of gold and silver coins, tied up in little b .gs, which were pitched to the successful j okays, who caught them in their [urbane N i entrance tee is charged to the races, and no betting system is Outlitd out.

A good story is told of Captain FJster. who has become famous as the preferred lover of Mrs. Crawford, of D lke notoriety. The captain is a remarkably good-looking fellow and think very highly of his “ mash- ing " qualities. While staying at an English com ry house some years ago there were two remarkably pretty girls on a visit and the captain paid them great antentlon. One evening he proposed to both of them and Was promptly refused. NaX' morning the captain was late down to breakfast and one of the girls told of her experience with the gallant. " Why," said the other, “ he said i X only the same thing to me." Just then the captain entered the room and there was an audible titter. He asked the rea- son from a friend, who remarked. curtly : " Look here, old man, the next time you try to mash two girls in one evening take care they are not particular chums.”â€"Lon- don Hour.
