BIG TIME WITH A MULE.
Liv ely Time in south Side Stable
Wednesday,

4 Liv ely Time in "a south side Stable
Wednesday.
One OF the big black mules Of the
Warwood Tool Company is noted for US
powers as q kicker. The animal is kept
10 Handlan's stable, on Thirty-frst
street. and last Wednesday afternoon
there was a scene. 1t lasted for three
hours, and was all caused by an effort
to get the brute from the stable. He
did not want to 20, they say, because
be had not had his dinner. A couple Of
the employees OF the tool works
went around first TO get the
mule out, and be blazed away at them
with both feet While they went for re-
Inducements, crowd began to collect
1t was not long before the street was
tanned, and there must have been fully
200 persons there to see the fun, as they
called it. Women and babies were
there, and the potters sent about the
largest delegation. One Of the largest
among the tool works employees said he
would show the mule something, and
made a dash for the stable. The ami
NAL sized him up and flew st him with
his mouth. The workman retired with
a painfully bitten arm. Another man
in the crowd said that the way to do
was to talk kindly TO the mule. He
went into the stall, and about min
ute after he was wedged up against
the stall aud yelling for help.
This was the second round, and still
the mule held the fort. A farmer
from out Caldwell's run came along and
standing back he yelled that the way to
do was TO 20 into the stall and offer the
mule an ear of corn. This was not
tried and the farmer retired amid yells
of derision. About this time one OF the
workmen came TO the scene with pick
handle. The mule was struck aud rem
dered nesrly unconscious, and after
that he did not show the previous stub
bornness. Still he was able 10 kick.
After three hours hard work the men
got a rope and lassoed the beast and the
crowd got hold of the farther end OF the
rope and pulled the mule from the
stable. 1t has been some time since
such an exciting incident occurred on
the SOuth Side.

lido YOU Wish A
| GOOD HINT?
eve must eat to live"

1--WE must eat to live"
The health of the body and life itself
depend entirely on a suitable Diet
When people do not get enough food or
live on an improper diet. sickness is the
inevitable result. Proper nourishnent
/: the secret Of health and strength.
Tbs great question Of health is, there
fore. Nyhat is q proper diet?
This DIGESTION might be answered in
three diffeGent ways AID yet each an
swer would be- correct. In the tropics,
it would be righttS say that the proper
diet for mankind is almost entirely veg
etarian-that is, fruits, vegetables and
grains. But 10 America, which lies In
the great temperate zone, q mixed diet
is found TO be the best. The healthiest
people, In this country, live on meat
foods, vegetables and grains in suitable
proportions. Such diet is founded on
reason and it ought TO be healthy.
Theory and practice, however, do not
always agree. There are thousands OF
yet remain weak, unDaturAlly thin, pale
and puny, They have no strength, and
are continually complaining OF tired
feelings. Their great trouble Is that
while they eat suitable food they do not
get sufficient nourishment. They do
not digest their food properly. So thoy
keep thin and keep getting thinner
Lack Of nourishment soon wears them
out.
1t was formerly the custom to advise
such people 70 take oils and fats, but
persons with weak stomachs can no
more digest cod-iiver oil than they can
digest fat pork. The effect of either is
TO make them dvspeptic and bilious.
And that is WAY advanced physicians
now refuse to prescribe cod-liver oil.
Medcated wines and so-called stomach
"Oitters" are equally useless. They only
infiame the lining OF the stomach and
give no nourlshment.
Tue recognition OF these great prin-
ciples OF diet and nourishment has led to
one of the most brilliant discoveries OF
the present age. II has completely revo-
lutionized the treatment OF dyspepsia
and emaciation. Instead OF trying TO
cure indigestion with medicines and oily
mixtures, people are now finding out
that the only way TO get relief is by OBJ
tanning sufficient nourishment, and that
this nourishment is speedily gained by
taking Paskola. the artiticially digested
food. This great discovery has caused
a decided sensation for some time past,
and the fact that Psskola is becoming
so wonderfully popular is the best proof
that it has merit.
Any up-to-date druggist will furnish
Paskola. II you want 10 know how 1t
works, send for free pamphlet TO the
Pre-dlgested Food Co., 80 Reade. ST.,
