THE GAITED SADDLE HORSE. 



This purely American production, beloved and justly so, by 

 the South and West, is an animal of imposing presence and 

 splendid individuality, superb carriage, rare courage and intel-

 and his gaits and characteristics cultivated with great judg- 

 ment. He stands in a class by himself among the equine 

 breeds, and although he is the only saddle horse that the South- 

 erner and Westerner considers worth while, it is doubtful 

 whether he will ever become fashionable on the bridle paths
