I know then that I have finally pushed him beyond the flimsy limits of his meager endurance. "All right, Mother. What you needed was a new stove. Why did you spend your income tax refund for a new horse?" "It was this way... " I mumbled humbly. "There s no conceivable excuse. You already had two horses." "Well!" 1 flared with a sudden show of asperity. "If you're counting noses, let's take a tally of the stoves! I already have three stoves! There they set; two defunct electric ranges and one rather rusty antique wood-burning cookstove that neither of my fair-weather offspring have as yet foqnd time to fix and install for me!" "Uh... yeah. But the point is, Mother, that none of these stoves work." "Neither of my geldings work, either, in the capacity for which the little new mare is intended." "Neither of your geldings work, period. Neither of those creatures has done an honest day's labor since you've owned them, and I very much doubt that your recent acquisition will ever earn her groceries, either." "She won't for a while," I sighed. "She's terribly thin." "Just why, may I ask, did you buy a puny pony?" "I had no choice!" I exclaimed. "They were about to send her to the slaughterhouse! A nice old mare like that!" "That's different. You had no alternative, of course, but what do you intend to do with her?" "She's a perfect kid's horse; for my grandchildren." "Oh, really? Let's go look at her!" On the way to the barn 1 told the story of the small cream-colored mare who bore the appellation of "Silver," which seemed at first glance to be an obvious misnomer. No patina gleams upon her scarred and tarnished surface, yellowed "with the weight of patient years. A pitiful prominence of rib and hipbone vies with an extensive overgrowth of untrimmed hoof. Luxuriant but matted, her unkempt mane and tail in no way can be called her crowning glory. Like the rest of us old grey mares, she isn't what she used to be; but her big brown eye is bright and her muzzle is soft and friendly. Her ears are alert and trusting, and her welcoming nicker announces that in her heart of hearts she's still a filly. "Silver," if 1 may employ an obsolete cliche, is as good as gold. She may be considerably depreciated, but with proper care she will, in time, return to her former beauty and value. ? I have rechristened her "Dollar," and I call her "Doll" for short. My kid looked at his watch. "I have about an hour," he mentioned speculatively. "Oh, good!" I cried. "Maybe you can work on my antique woo d-burning cookstove !" "Don't be silly," he said. "There's a broken rail in the corral and a loose board in Dollie's stall and the barn door doesn't hang right!" "You're a chip off the old block," I remarked. Imagine my surprise when, early the next morning, this same kid appeared upon my premises with a somewhaf dilapidated old electric range maintaining a wretched toehold within the precarious confines of his ancient truck. "I bought you astove, Maw!" "Does it work?" t "The right rear burner does! $2.50 off on Conditioned Frost. $2.50 off L'Oreal Conditioned Color. $2.50 off Redkin Tricho Perm. Tues., Wed., Thurs., Fri. You'll have to get new elements for the other three and a door for the oven, but with a little tender loving care she'll be fine!" "Just set it over there with the other three," I said miserably. "1 sure don't understand why you would buy yet another non-functional stove." MR. AND MRS. FRED STULLER of Shelton -engagement of their daughter, Vickie, to "I had no choice!
