Ell by the following observation -
There is a short branch omnibus line
in New Orleans, where each mule
makes the journey five times success
lively before being changed. The vet

called atteRtion to the fact that at the
end OF each of the first four Journeys
they were silent, but as they approach
the end of the fifth they neigh. But,
this is not satisfactory. The end OF
the fifth may be marked by prepara-
