did not wish TO sit for il myself, should
get a cOrrec, likeness of mule. There

countenance to ft out Sunday school
class. 1t looks as guileless as an angle
worm.
A mule never grows old or dies. Once
brought into existence he continues on
forever. The original mule is now alive
some where in the South, and is named
Robert Toombs, because he is go stub
born.
Mules are chiefly found in the South
and West. They have been more abused
than Judas Iscariot. A hoy who would
not throw stone at mule when he got
ii chance would be considered by his pa
rents too mean to raise.
The mule is good worker, but he can
not be depended on. He is liable to
sti.ke, and when mule strikes human
calculation fails to find out any rule by
which to reckon when he will go to work
again. 1t is useless to pound him, for he
will stand more beating than sitting
room carpet. He has been known to
stand eleven days in one spot, apparently
thinking Of something, and then start off
again as though nothing had happened.
Down South, when they have surplus
of small darkeys on tine plantation, they
send them out into the barnyard to play
where there is loose mule. They always
bid them good-by when they start out,
for they are sure the parting will be final.
This is the most economical style OF
funeral now in the market.
To fully appreciate the mule one should
listen to his voice. You never can really
know whether you like mule or not till
you have heard him sing. attended a
mule concert at Fort Snelling. The pro-
gramme opened with soprano solo, and
then swung into duet, and then pranced
off into q trio, followed up by quar-
tette, and ending with a full chorus Of
$50 mules. l didn't hear the whole thing,
for when came to the regimental sur
geon was standing over me, giving me
powerful restoratives, and l heard him
say that might possibly get out again,

York Stock Exchange, and spent part Of
day in boiler factory, and have been
on one or two Sunday school excursions
for children, but never knew what noise

One of the dead certainties about q
mule is that he is sure-footed, especially
with his hind feet. He never misplsces
them. If he advertises that his feet will
be at certain spot at certain time,
with sample of mule shoes, to which be

time. He is - reliable rs the day of
