PRECEPT AND PRACTICE.

“[ remember being shocked on hearing an advanced humanitarian, a convinced believer iu the Fatherhood of God and the brotherhod of man. scold a tired waitress at the rush hour, when ho was otf duty, hut she was on. for not being quick enough in bringing him a eun of tea.”—Principal L. P. .lacks, in “The Heroes of Smokcover.” WILL THE HORSE COME BACK? “Without counting numbers, we are definitely aware that there are more horses in service in the streets than three years ago; the makers of harness and saddlery, chains, liames, hits and other furniture, metal and leather of tho kind that goes with the use of the home, have lieen aware of the movement for some time. That they have welcomed it is not to be wondered at, for the trade, which was hard hit when the horse ceased to draw the trallicar, was much harder hit when the commercial motor vehicle and the motor-car came into popular use. The return of the home is the more interesting because the motor vehicle had carved out tho field of haulage into fine sections. . . The horse i.s at the moment more economical in (ortain spheres of transport because of the indirect result of certain operations, and only because of that.” - “R.C." in tho ‘‘Manchester Guardian.”
