While polo is particularly adapted for play on prairie land and on the ranches of the North- West, it is strange that there is not a single club in Canada. In fact it is from the ranches that all the ponies are got with which the game is played in America. ' And polo is without exception the most an- cient of all the forms of equestrian sport now in vogue. Its origin is shrouded in mystery. Over a thousand years ago the Princes of the Mikado's family were accustomed' to play it in the vast grounds of the Imperial Palace at Kioto. At a less remote epoch the British conrj[uerors of India found that polo waMhe favorite pastime of the Rajahs, who wagered their finest jewels on the results of the game. It soon found favor in the eyes of the English nit.lli-C!it. ingenious artificers in iron officers. Inter-regnnental matches were play- mi probably the only mono- ed, and the game became more and inore pop- .srui lace in Afriea.

We once heard a num complain of feeling badly, and wondered what aUed him. A humorous friend said, " Give a doctor $2, and let him guess." It was a cutting satire on some doctors, who don't always guess right.

Moreover, it was regarded with "the ut most approval by the Government, which re- alized that a game of polo, stiffly contested, i did more to improve the horsemanship of, its cavalry officers than months of work in the riding-school. About twenty years ago polo was imported into England, the tirst Tiiatch beingplayedatShornclifle, by cavalry officers i just home from India. It quickly became ex- ceedingly popular, and its fame soon spread to the Continent, M-here it is now played by Frenchmen, Germans, Russians and Italians. It was introduced into America in 1873 by Mr. James Gordon Bennett, and took root at once. The game, which we herewith take pleasure in commending, would prove of great benefit to the North- West Mounted police and to all to whom a good seat in the saddle, with perfect command of a horse, is a. necessity.

An impressive incident occurred years ago in Hartford. The man who related it was so profoundly impressed with the reality of a supramortal meeting and recognition that he never forgot it. He is still living in a West- em State. On this occasion he was a watch- er at the bedside of a dying man â€" a printer. He is a very " practical," hard-headed man and one of the last to be given to fancies. For half an hour, he said, the dying man had been sinking. The breathing, growing more labored, became slower and fainter. The watcher tliought the man was dead, when the Jews ' suddenly his eyes opened with a glad look of wonder and joj-f ;il recognition he threw up his arms as in an embrace and his whole face was illuminated as he rapturously exclaimed " Why, mother " The same instant he fell back "oead.
