Rough and ungainly as the
mule is at times in appearance
these appearances are sometimes
deceitful. That apparent ungain'
illness may hide as uppleness that
is wonderful. To the uninitiated
it is marvellous how that appar-
ent sluggishness of aspect may
wake into life. Only let the oc-
casiOn come and those heavy
eyes will glitter with devilish
glee, that heavy head come
around with a snap, those thick
lips fold back upon those CLEAN

and the lightness of his heels is
never thereafter questioned. The
world of human kind has it's cOun-
terpart here, also, and only to it's
wisdom is it given to take due
whose teeth and his heels are in
such happy partnership.
In fact it is in his kicking abiI-
tiles that the mule and the man
so closely resemble each other.

Hess, The mule and the man
who Is his twin were born to kick
and they fulfill their mission. Not
only were they born to kick, but
they were born kicking, and they
follow their calling with an en-
ergy and an industriousness
worthy of a better cause. Still
it is well to do your kicking with
vim if it is to be done at all,
and herein is it's virtue. There
is so much that needs a strong
and vigorous kick in this
world that could the human mule
be relied on only to kick at the
lawfully kickable he would be
worth his weight in gold, not
free silver.
To kick then or not to kick be-
comes the question. Whether it
is wiser and better to suffer the
imposition of some presumptious
rider in the saddle, or to take up
hoOfs against such impositions
and by kicking end them. If the
end would only come with the
kick all would be well, but this
is by no means certain. All the
same the need of this class of hui
man kickers is demonstrated day
by day. Could the divisions of
labor only be rightly adjusted
and the proper province of the
kicker be marked out, there
would be no end of prayers for
San Antonio daily light. [volume] (San Antonio, Tex.) 1886-1907, 1896-11-15

The mulish man is sometimes the
best of his family, just as a good
mule is in every way preferable
to a poor horse. One of the dis
tinctive features of the mule is
his ear. 1t is also the distinctive
feature of the mulish man. If
you have ever watched a mule
talking with his ear you will note
that there is no end of real char
acter in that appendage to his
face. 1t is more expressive than
a dictionary. He can show more
emotion in that one organ than
a whole tribe of hired mOurners
at funeral. 1t expresses the
whole gamut of feeling, frolick-
sOmeness, doggedness, alertness,
sagacity, contempt, and pure
cussedness as well.
Watch him paw that ear on
mOmentus occasions. If YOU are
versed in mule nature YOU will
be at no loss to discover that
there are demonstrations ahead,
and that it is we'll to be provided
against them. That ear does not
lop over for nothing, nor does it
set itself forward without cause.
That ear is the sign manual of
the profundity of thought, or the
deeps of sagacity, or the unfath-
Omed cussedness that there is in
that mule, but which is the one
