"You say I'll die if I to there." said Farley to his doctor. "Well, I'll die If I don't. I might as well die happy." Soma of Farley's fortune went into fine trotting horses, and he loves them. They have been racing at the Yonkers track, while he was dying some miles 'away. So he was determined to have his bed moved out to his stable. He was carried out there and his bed set In the open. A canvas covering is thrown over him at night, but in the daytime he insists that It be removed. He has been so. placed that he may see his horses enter and leave their stable and may watch them as they race. That gives him pleasure. "So long as I am to live onls a short time, I might as well live ss I wish," said he. But, contrary to the expectation of his physician, he has shown some im provement since he moved to the open air. east. reveals good: Material for u. of o.
