What a Mule Can Do
Thi* ranle looked like he was 138
yean* old, and wits dead standing on
his feet. He was hitched to a pine
bodied spring wagon, with a high
dash-board. The team was standing
on the levee iu mute silence, while
the old darkey who M drv” it went
aboard the wharf-boat. A tmnap
could make a barrel of money ftjUipg.
picture*wnKiff ‘Ta
tience.” Hi# torig flabby ears hung
down each ►ide of his head like win
dow awnings with the rod* out of
them. His face wore a sober look,
while out of his mouth hung a tot.gne
eight inches long. His tail swung
dowu from the rear end of his hurri
cane roof like a wcll-r pe, while his
whole body seemed ns motionless ns
death itself- Presently a red-hea*letl
urchin with an old boot in his hand
walked up in fr *it o f him, and look
ing uito hi# face, saw that the mate
wa# asleep. He walked around,
cUtnbe i up into Hint w 'Ron, leaned
over the dash board, lifted *uat mule’s
tail, and let if come down iu time to
g,-t a death grip on the Umt-l g. Th<
mule woke up and kicke • the boy
and the dash-board alwut twenty feet.
H * didn’t stop there. He changed
the position of hi# t ars. hauled hi his
toogne, planted his fore feet aud his
head between 'i* kueea, aud from
the fore shoulder# to tbe tip of his
trunk was iu lively motion, aud he
didn't look .ike he was more than
two years old, the way he was kick
ing that old wagu-body into kiud*
lmg wood with his heels. Ha had
it ail t I itoself, and was doing fine,
when the old darkey rushed tip the
hill, gut iu front of him, and grab
biug him by the er, shouted, *'wlna!
Is i yon. Wat’# de ualcer widymi?

crowd, yelled, ‘‘will some o' yer gem*

h*4e him? ka-o tie vr iggin’s mm an’

.nr ventured, and when w f o left hi#

yelling •*whoa!”
