justified I'm Killing IA Mule.

Perhaps the queerest lawsuit on
record-one that deserves a place in
the legal records of Georgia-was that
which was recently decided in Morgan
County, Ga. A drummer hired mule
and buggy to go into the country. The
mule became contrary and backed the
buggy into the fence. The drummer
piled the whip and the mule kicked
back. The mud flew, but the drummer
held his own. When patience ceased to
be virtue. the commercial gentleman
drew a revolver from his pocket and
killed the long cared source of danger.
The owner of the mule brought suit
against the drummer for the value of
his quadruped, whereuron the jury
brought in the following verdict: 1--WE,
the jury, find the defendant not guilty,
and the killing case of justiiable
homicide"

Use of Mice Tails.

Before we had much observed mice,
the use of their long tails was a ques-
tion that had puzzled us. We do not
know of what service they are to the
females, but to the bucks they are, we
see, OF use in their combats: for when
they fight they very often face one an
other standing on their hind legs, the
tail then making, as with kangaroos,
the third feature Of tripod.
Their appearance when they thus
stand facing one another with their
heads thrown back and their paws in
front of their faces is, on account per-
haps of the resemblance it bears to the
posture of priZe-fghters, extremely
comic. Small mice, also, when at
tackled by their bigger congeners, raise
their paws before their faces the atti-
tude in that case strangely suggesting
one of depreciation.
What occurs when belligerent bucks
actually engage, only instantaneous
photography could record, so rapid are
their movements. Presumably they
try TO bite; but must consider defense
the better part of valor, for they never
appear to get hurt much, and between
the rounds will nibble away at the
crust which brought them into the
vicinage, only showing their excite
ment by rafting their tails against the
ground. Occasionally. tail seized by
the teeth leads to one mouse having to
drag his enemy over the floor till the
latter let's go.-NdturaliSt.

Mon nchind nrcss Goods Counter.

Ii you have done much shopping You
must have noticed that more men than
women are employed at the dress goods
counters. 1t occurred to the writer to
ask if there was any reason for this.
The manager replied, just as if he had
been expecting some one to ask the
question. There are several reasons
for it. Women do not like TO take the
say-so Of their own sex on dress goods !;
men have better ideas of combination
than women; men are more diplomatic
in dealing with women than saleswom-
en- are. A saleswoman can accomplish
more at some other counter than men.
But at the dress goods counter men
make the best employees. You would
naturally think that woman could
grab up piece of goods and show it
to advantage. L never saw one that
could do it. Few women are good
Judges of combinations of colors on the
counter. A modiste is, of course, but
q woman cannot always have o modiste
with her when she goes shopping
Men who are In the business take to a
thing like combining colors as naturally
as ducks take TO water. They seem to
know as soon as they see woman
what will become her in tie way of
dress goods. There are many articles

Buildings Put Up Quickly.

what do 1 think of the rapidity
with which buildings are run up now,
as compared with twenty years ago,
you ask? Why, there is no compare
son as far as the time consumed is con-
cerned."
Such was the remark of member OF
one of the largest building firms in
New York to NelGS reporter the
other day.
40 what is the change due?"
well, there are several causes. To
commence with, the hod-carrier at
which you newspaper men were always
making jokes, has, for practical pur-
poses. become back number. Bricks
and all classes of building material are
now hoisted by dcrricks and steam
lifts and there is no longer any climb
up long ladders Then again no time
is lost now, and every man that can be
utilized is put to work on building,
while the material is much easier to
handle, being better shaped.
Il might say that the era of rapid
and high building came in with the
craze for tire-proof structures. Hol-
low bricks, steel and iron castings have
enabled architects to accomplish won
ders, and rapidly as buildings spring
up to-day they are fully as strong as
those which twenty-five years ago took
three times as much time to erect"
