FAIRLY FAST!
Here’s an American yarn of the turf.An owner who particularly wished to win a certain event went to a druggist to ask if there were any preparation which would make a racehorse run faster. "Sure,” replied the druggist; “here y’are—five dollars a capsule.” ; The owner took it and departed, to return later in the day. "I-low’d it work?” asked the storekeeper. “Grea,t.” panted the owner; “my horse went off i like a pocket, and we ain’t seen him i since. Gimme two more capsules—l gotta catch him.”
