4 Humorous Story of Two Long-Eared
QuadrupedH.


Mr.. Poindexter Dunn of the New
York City Custom House Investigating
Commission told the following story TO
the reporters, Saturday, prefscing it by
saying that daily attendance at the
Barge Office meetings reminded him of
it,
There was mule" he said, 'fhat
worked in the mines, and it became old
and gray and blind
One day the contractor decided TO
pension it. They put it out to pasture
where it could get all it wanted 10 eat,
but wouldn't have 10 work They got q
new mule to work in the niue Not
withstanding the fact that the old mule
was officially of duty he would 60 TO
the mine every day and would take his
place beside the new mule and walk up
and down and up and down while the
new mule did the pulling
Then Mr.. Dunn laughed heartily. No
explanations went with the story.

commendable organization which has
been formed largely through the ef-
fort of Hon. l.. S. Coffin, ex-Railroad
Commissioner of Iowa. Mr.. Coffin
found that many of the railroad men
we're ready for a total abstinence
movement, and to crystalline this feel
ing he acted upon a hint from Miss
Jennie Smith, superintendent of the
National w. c. T. U. work for rail-
road employees, and had white but
ton made for badge to correspond
with the white ribbon worn by women.
He presented the white button idea
at the meeting of the Brotherhood of
Locomotive Engineers, last May. 1t
took wonderfully, and already 10000
buttons have been called for. They
are now being worn in good faith by
engineers and train men in every

1t is gratifying to be able to bear a
cheerful message this week. a letter
from one of our staunch white-ribbon
women tells of the temperance victo-
ry in Attala county. She writes, 1.-THE
Prohibitionists carried the county by
a majority of 1913, much to the sur
prise and discontinue of our oppo-
nents. The saloons are all to be clos
ed by the 1st of April, as at that
time their license expires.
ION the day of election the ladies of
the w. c. T. U. held five hours pray
er meeting, tolling the bell during the
whole time we were on our knees
pleading with God to bless the efforts
of the Christians of Kosciusko. When
the question was asked on the streets,
why is that bell tolling?' our friends
replied, The good women are praying
to God for prohibition
"The election took place OH Septem-
Der LIST, Friday, and on the following
Sunday afternoon we held a praise
meeting" She also writes that pub
lie sentiment is growing and rapidly
increasing in favor of temperance.
1t is very encouraging to hear such
report and every Christian in Miss
issippi ought to be devoutly thankful.
Mississippi leader. (Jackson, Miss.) 1892-1895, 1893-10-03

From the fulness of a most grateful
heart / want to thank Mrs. M. w.
Wynn, of the Lexington Union, for
her letter of the 22nd inst. If the diff
ferent unions throughout the State
will write me of their local work,
whether it be much or little, it will be
a great encouragement and help to me
in my feeble efforts to edit this col
umn. Dear sisters, / need your coop
Grafton and l need it badly 49, do not
let me ask in vain for anything you
can do in this work. l am also in
debted to Mrs. Mount and Mrs. Hos
kins for items this week.
Mrs. Wynn writes, 1--WE arc trying
now to get up petition to present to
the Board to have an election ordered,
and will ask every union in the state
to pray earnestly that we may have
whisky put out of our county"
Let not the Christian women of the
state forget or neglect to grant this
request. 1t will be great help to the
Lexington. union to be assured that
all white-ribboners in the state are
praying for prohibition in Holmes
county. Let us come together in our
local unions, "with one accord" and
ask the Lord to give us Holmes coun-
ty for prohibition and for Christ.
