An Effective Mule Invigorator.

While travelling in Virginia some time
ago, doctor came upon an old colored
man who was standing by mule hitched
to an old two wheeled vehicle.
"Dls mule am baked, boss" said the
old man, IAN I'll jis Glib dollah to de
man who can start him."
II will do it for less than that, uncle, y
said the doctor.
He took his case from the carriage and
selected a small syringe which he filed
with morphia. He went to the side of the
mule, and quickly inserting the syringe
in his side, pushed the contents into the
animal. The mule reared upon his hind
legs, and, giving . terrific bray, dashed
down the road ct break-neck speed. The
aged colored man gave look of aston
ishmept at the doctor, and with . loud
"Whoa! !" started down the road after the
mule. IN the course of ten minutes the
doctor came up to the old man standing
in the road waiting for him. The mule
was nowhere in sight.
"Say, boss" said the darkey, sshow
much you charge for dat stuff you put in

Dom Pedro's Test,

An exchange says that young engi-
neer once went to Dom Pedro, the late
Emperor of Brazil, to show him new
appliance for stopping railway engines
The Emperor was interested in the thing,
aud said: 1--WE will put it at once to
practical test. The day after tomorrow
have your engine ready; we will have it
coupled to my saloon carriage, and then
fire away. When going at full speed ]
will unexpectedly give the signal to stop,
and we will see how the apparatus works"
At the appointed time the Emperor
entered his carriage, the engineer mount
ed his engine, and on they went for .
considerable distance; indeed, the young
engineer began to suspect that the En-
peror had fallen asleep, when the train
suddenly came to sharp curve round
the edge of cliff, on turning which the
engineer saw, to his horror, an immense
boulder lying on the road.
He had just sufficient presence of mind
to turn the crank Of his brake and pull
up tue engine within q couple Of yards
Of the fatal block.
The emperor put his head out of the
window and shouted to the engineer and
fireman, "What are you stopping fora"
They pointed to the piece of rock, on
seeing which Dom Pedro burst into q
merry laugh.
"Push the thing on one side! he called
out to the engineer, who had jumped
down from the locomotive; and when the
latter, in his confusion, blindly obeyed
and kicked the stone with his foot, il
crumbled into dust.
; It was q block of starch that Dom
Pedro had ordered to be placed on the
rails the night before.

newspaper men call it, while the head of
the household is an uncomprising Prohi-
bitionist. That's house divided against
itself, you see. 1t required all my tact,
tears and authority to stage off the
Scriptural proverb and pull it through
intact. Each started in at the beginning
of the campaign to convert all the others,
and that precipitated trouble. Mr.. Wilson
would start in with his protective theories
Son John would come back at him with
an arm-load of Golden Club literature,
and the thermometer on the front porch
would begin to crawl upward. Then
Son George would bring out his sub
