sfuies for Farm work.

The mule is used much more than
the horse in the South. probably in
part because Southern negro laborers
are not to be trusted with the more
spirited and valuable animals. A
Southern planter mentions as advan-
tages of mules over horses: Their
feet are smaller, and so they iniure
the crops less when working in them,
and can be used in closer rows than
horses: they are less liable to disea Sc,
are better feeders, being less fastidi-
Gus as to what they eat, endure hard
ship better, are not so easily injured.
and are steadier to work at the plow.
The experience of most Northern
farmers with mules is that however
serviceable for work on the farm it
is less pleasant and less safe to work
among them. Good horses are none
the worse for the farm, because they
require better care than the mule
will put up with.

Destroyed Sis Discovery on Learning
That 1t Might stimulate Fraud.
DR.. j. p Barnum, the we'll known
chemist of Louisville, is the man who
invented the celebrated ink eraser
which caused so much talk several
years ago. In an interview with a
Memphis Appeal-Avalanche reporter
recently he gave the follow ing inter
esting facts:
"When / first got my ink eraser
complete thought my fortune was
made, but soon discovered that it
was so conducive to crime that sup
pressed its sale and have always
kept the secret to myself l suppose
it will die with me. This eraser
could positively remove all traces OF
ink from ank kind of paper.
/ remember one man who wrote a
letter to the Courier-Journal, telling
them he did not believe the account
which they had published of the
eraser. Some of. the men in the Cour-
ier Journal took some of my erasing
fluid and wiped all the ink out of his
letter, except the signature. A check
for $10G was then written above
the signature, and they went to the
bank and got the money. In short
time after it's introduction several
crimes il Louisville. as well as else
where had been committed
by the aid of the eraser,
and when a wellknown young
man ip Louisville perpetrated a fraud
upon his firm by its use and went to

At one time number of securities of
the Fall City bank, of Louisville, had

their bonds. and ass 4 statement that

the writing. l had at one time $780,
900 worth of these bonds. with the
agreement that if any traces of ink
or the fluid were left l was to buy
each bond so defaced at its face
value, but didn't have to buy any
of them. The act of forgery itself is
very easy to accomplish, but the per-
petrator nearly always gets caught
in the end. This so-called safety
paper. which is now being extensively
manufactured, is no protection. The
ink lines on this safety paper, which
fade away as soon as they are
touched by any chemical, can be put
back very easily. A stone for this
purpose can be engraved for $40"
