COULD NOT USE SIDE SADDLE. Old-Fashioned Woman Turned Down by Livery Keeper. "It is hard theso days," says a popular popu-lar actross, "to ho an old-fashioned woman oven with the best Intentions I was resting at a rathor fashionable little placo not long ngo nnd wantod to get somo horseback exerclso, of which I am vury fond. So I went to n pretentious looking livery stablo nnd applied for a liorso. Tho proprietor Inquired how I intended to ride. "As n woman should ride a horse, with a side saddle., of course," I answered. "Then you can have no horse of ours," was tho verdict. "A side enddlo unfits the best of horses for any other use. It's an Invention of tho devil and as injurious to tho woman ns it is to tho horso." All my wiles were powerless to ovorcomo tho horse owner's objections objec-tions and I was forced to forego equestrian eques-trian pleasure."
