of the Star mules at their pasture be-

The trouble for these poor mules
was that they followed false god

have been old enough to know better,
but at the age of twenty-three, with
gray hair and bald withers. she was
still female
"She and her mules had been graz
ing maybe half a mile when my new
stallion, young Jehoshaphat, happened
along with his harem of twenty-five
mares, smelling down wind for a
drink. The mares looked SO snug and
grass-fat they could scarcely waddle,
but Jehoshaphat was full of sinful
pride. Waiting high step at the sight
of Prue.
You should have seen Prue play

Jehoshaphat, pretending she wasn't
there, making believe she was too sud-

fiattering his vanity with all sorts of
airs and graces. Prue paraded her
