Looxs Lise a Canarv.—The St, John Telegraph saye: “ A good story is being freely circulated about Moncion at the ex pence of a P. E. Islander horse dealer. It appears that the dealer landed in the railway town Ove day last week with a borae which he came in possession of in thie city. Racing on the snow was at iis height at Munctos when the dealer arrived and te had no douby that he would at once finda bayer fer bis fest hersee. Word was passed around and the new cumer’s advent on Menctea’s speedway was awaited with interest. A large crowd gathered on either side ef the read and fiowlly the new horse made its appearence, piloted by his owner. The St. John borse looked very promising and the spectators were very anxious te see him started up. A grocer named Ryau was out among the flyers wita a slick-geisg pacer by Bronze Chief. Ryans invited the stranger toa brush and oa the way te the turning pOistwas told in confidence that the sew horse was for sale and not te beat bim at any cost. Ryan premised t. do as te had been asked and the horses weie turmed and headed tewards the erowd. To the surprise ef the trader nie friend breke faith with him, for just as the horses were bearing the spectators Ryan pulled out and passed his rival to the delight of those whe eaw the race. The trader re- tired from the speedway in disgust and when asked that evening if he had made a sale remarked that there were oo many “fresh” peeple about Moncton to do any horse trading there.” Your Wurse W 1! recommend you t9 née & good, tresh and palatable Emal- rion ef Cod Liver Qil fer the children when they sre losing fl sh, and are pale apd sickly. it puts color in their cheeks and fat on their bones.
