"I stood In the nnddock nt n race trnek n Hm ninni. i. . famous sweepstake) race were being saddled. The driver of one of the outsiders In the betting remarked to n friend as ho gave a final fingering to tho saddle on tbe girth : 'ivobody figures my horse to have a chance, but he's got a darn swell chance, and I'll tell you why. He's gnmc, and he'll stnnd a drive the wnoie route. Ho ain't extra fast, but he's a rtinnln fool. He don't know when h'( bent. And If any of them choices commences to weaken in the stretch, this bird o mine is liable to grab 'em, because he don't never stop. He Just sets up in all the way. He's the kind of a horse it ain't ever safe not to have a bet on.' "Well, some of the people around laughed nntl kidded him along and Inti mated that his horse wasn't the only 'runniu' fool' thereabouts and so on but a 'Ittle later in the day they had changed their tunc. ' "When the numbers went up, the number of the horse that 'didn't know when he's beaten' was on top. He had won. 'The choices had faltered In the last slxtccuth and the 'runnln' fool' or 'fools' under whip and spur and Jibe had out gamed them at the finish. The finish is what counts. The mnn who can stand the "gaff" without shortening his stride, who is game and who can stand a drive the whole route who doesn't know when he's "beat" and simply sets up in all the way, that li the raun it is always safe to have n bet on, in fact you cun place your bottom dollar on the certainty that he's slated for one or more of life's big prlics.

Adventures With a Purse PERHAPS you might be interested in the little blouse I Raw. -It is made, I should say, from voile, and the qual ity is good. Down the front nre rows of fine tucks forming about a two-inch hand on each side of the opening in the front. The collar is one of tho long straight models, and collar and cuffs arc edged with a tiny filet lace. This makes a nice tailored blouse, nnd ccr tnlnly the lace edging adds to the ap pearance. The price is $1.05. One of Philadelphia's older shops that Is noted for its linens and neckwear is having a specinl sale of luncheon sets. These sets arc rnnde of pure linen, and are perfectly plain except for u narrow scallop around the edges. Sometimes I think that these plaiu dollies are the prettiest of nil the madelru work. The thirteen-picce luncheon set bears the umnzing price of $5. Another interesting sale is that of the cotton voiles.
