Leyboff has insisted on the absolute necessity of rest during pregnancy, as well for the sake of the woman herself as the burden she carries, and shows the evil results which follow when rest is neglected. Railway traveling, horse-riding, bicycling, and sea-voyages are also, Leyboff believes, liable to be injurious to the course of pregnancy.
He and his Indian guides were searching for the horse-riding Blackfeet Indians. All the Amerindians known to the Hudson's Bay Company hitherto travelled on foot, using snowshoes in the winter; but vague rumours had reached the Company that in the far south-west there were great nations of Indians which did all their hunting on horseback.
I was studying this man. What was he doing here in our quiet country community? What was his errand? What business had a julep-drinking, horse-riding parson speaking in a Virginia pulpit where only the gospel was known, and that from exponents worth the name? "You are from Washington?" I said at length. He nodded.
The horse-riding of the Chaco Indians, even in our day, surpasses that of the gaucho.
He forgot all about the big trout in the pool, and stood with his fly drifting aimlessly in the water, watching with something like breathless interest this, the most daring piece of horsemanship he had ever witnessed; and he had ridden side by side with the best steeplechaser of the day, and had watched a crack Hungarian cavalry corps at its manoeuvres; which last is about the top notch of the horse-riding business.

'tis well I brought her not withal; she would have been dog-weary ere we had won thus far." For this short distance Mrs Jane rode by herself, the Colonel mounting another horse beside her.
Girls lace tight and "go in" for the tip of the fashion, yet they bloom and flourish as green bay trees, and do not find their skirts any obstacle in walking or tennis. The horse-riding that goes on is a thing to be chronicled; they are always on horseback, and you may depend upon it that it is better for them than all the gymnastic exercises ever invented.
'Then he has no business to do it, said Mr. Gradgrind. 'Tell him he mustn't. Cecilia Jupe. Let me see. What is your father? 'He belongs to the horse-riding, if you please, sir. Mr. Gradgrind frowned, and waved off the objectionable calling with his hand. 'We don't want to know anything about that, here. You mustn't tell us about that, here. Your father breaks horses, don't he?
"But it is a horse-riding country, especially back in the hills. They love horse-flesh, you know." "Oh, they'll get the gasoline bug like the rest of us," said the genial gentleman and slapped him on the back. Randy winced. He did not like to be slapped on the back. Not at a moment when he was selling his soul to the devil For that was the way he looked at it.
