Visitors to Cuba, especially those
who understand a little Spanish. marvel
at the politeness with which Cuban
cartmen address their mules. 1t is
not known generally that the ignorant
Cubans really believe that the mule
possesses a soul and is endowed with
intelligence approximating their own.
The cartman actually believes that his
mule understands perfectly what is said

in The Times of Cuba. he stopped to
observe a fallen mule on the smooth
pavement near the palace Of the presi-

The mule slanted one eye at the
driver. wagged its ears, and proceeded
to go to sleep, or appeared to do so.
'Mula, hagame el favor de subir,"
again importuned the driver
The mules eyelids fliCkered. but II
gave no other sign of having heard the
polite request.
The driver scratched his head and
looked at the mule.

Nothing doing on the part of the mule
Whereupon the driver carefully
grasped his whip and proceed to lay
on TO the hind quarters of Mr.. Mule
with all his strength. The outraged
animal snorted in protest, but struggled
to its feet

driver in an injured but partly apollo
getic tone as he went to work to match
