Patience, calmness, attending to hi;
own business, frugality and faithful- I
ness, have earned for the mule the r*p- j
utatlon of stupidity. He has become
marked as the dunce and blockhead
among animals. So long has the mul*
rested under this charge of mental dull
ness that his long ears have become » :
mark of lack of intelligence. Unjust j
comparison with Ids near relative has
made ‘‘horse-sense” a term of compli
ment to men. And it seems that all the !
the mule has been suffering under
undeserved reprouch, for the man who
le beast of sharp angles a \u
tod curves values 1dm above
» In practical intelligence, and
believes that patience, lack of nerves
,1 the factulty ot attending to busi
es have been misunderstood for al>-
sence of sense.
Animal trainers don’t take to mules
and the horse shows know them not,
for they are always beasts of burden
and do their playing among themselves
after working hours. They may not
have the knack of doing parlor trlcaa,
hut they have their share of useful,
everyday wisdom. Every one known
that horses ran hardly he forced out of
a burning stable. Terror-stricken, they
trembles with every nerve bred Into
them and wait for the flames. Seven
or eight years ago Sparks Bros’, horse
and mule barn burned near the stock
yards. Robert Booth of Sparks Bros,
says some of the horses were dragged
out, after much work, only to tear
themselves loose and run hack to the
burning barn. Wherever there was an
avenue of escape fur the mules they
came out without help or urging. Two
of the long-eared animals showed ho
tel experience, Jumping through win
dows four feet nbovo the ground.
I "Which showed the horse sense?"
j Mr. Booth asked. "The mule can be
relied on to keep his head under cir
cumstances in which a horse of any
grade would practically commit sui
cide fiom excitement.’’
The mule shows his sense even when
j he grows wicked. Let a pair of horses
run away nnd there Is a good bill fr>r
repairs or for a new* w'Agon awaiting
the owner. He Is even thankful If not
called on to pay for other vehicles
wrecked In collisions with his own nnd
Is happy to find that his horses have
escaped with a few outs. When mules
run away, the mule men say, they keep
the road and simply run till they get
tired. The man In the wagon who
knows will sit quietly and let them do
the driving. They avoid telegraph polos

'jne who heard iilm said:
The Rev. Frank Dixon unquestion
ably stands In the first rank of p
III wnlt six years to get a
good square kick at a man. Thnt, th'
mule men s*y. is another foundation
less tradition of tho unlearned. They
declare most solemnly that there Is lc
danger of sudden death from n mi
than from a horse. As for kicking
harness, a practice not uncomin
among homes of even the best breeding,
the mula doas not know the feeling of
hoofs Against the dashboard. True,
oven the friends of the long-eared do
not waste much time In currying th>
hind legs, but that, they say, Is b*cnu*<
the mule needs comparatively little o
the comb and brush. Ills coat Is short
er. coarsep and not so full as that of tho
horse, and ho In by nature cleaner
Mules like to wallow, but not In mud
ns do tho horses.
In the sale barns ot the stock ynrd
the mangers of the mules are filled with
food and tho animals cut what they
want nnd quit. The hay and grain
might ho mountain high and they would
not be tempted. The horses nrrf given
il no more than they are supposed to need.

Injured forever by foundering. A mule
,n i eats much less thon a horse of equal
trtngth, nnd wastes nothing.
Before crossing a strange bridge the
iverage mule will look It over as If es-
Imatlng Its strength and* then walk
«ver cautiously. Nor can It he forced

ioImmnee. If he decides that he can’t

many an old horse Is spending hls Idle
days in a clover field Is unknown to tha
mule. The only saying of any popu-
tform ; bir ty to contain a good word for tha

say that he has. and the trad

A prominent clubwoman, Mrs. Dan
forth, of St. Joseph, Mich., tells how she
was cured of falling of the womb and
its accompanying pains and misery by
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
“ He ah Mits. Pinkiiam: — Life looks (lark indeed when a woman
feels that her strength is fading away and she has no hopes of ever
being restored. Such was my feeling a few months ago when I was
advised that my poor health was caused by prolapsus or falling of the
womb. Tho words sounded like a knell to me, I felt that my sun had
set; but Lydia E. Plnklinm’s Vegetable Compound came to me as
an elixir of lifo; it restored tho lost forces nnd built mo up until my
good health returned to me. For four months I took tho medicine
daily aud each dose addod health and strength. I am so thankful for
the holp I obtalnod through its use.” — Mas. Floeinos Dastorth,
1007 JflTes Avo., 8t. Joseph, Mtch.
A medicine thnt lias restored so many women to health and
can produce proof of the fact must be regarded with respect. This
is lhe record of Lydia E. lMnkhnm’s Vegetalilo Compound, which
cannot be equalled by any other medicine tho world lias ever pro
duced. Here Is another case (—
“Dea« Mns. Pinkham: — For vears I was
troubled with falling of tho womb, irregular
and painful menstruation, leucorrlUBa, liearing-
down pains, backachh, headache, dizzy and
fainting spoils, and stomach trouble.
“I doctored for about five years but did
not seom to lniprovo. I began the use of your
medicine, and havo taken seven bottles of
Lydia E. Plnkliam’s Vegetable Compound,
three of Blood Purifier, aud also used the
Sanative Wash and Liver Pills, nnd am now
enjoying good health, and have gained in flesh.
I thank you very much for what you
havo done for me, nnd heartily recom
mend your medicine to all suffering
women." — JIirs Emma Snydkb, 218 East
Center St., Marion, Ohio.
“FREE MEDICAL ADVICE TO WOMEN.” ,
Women would save time and much sickness If they would
write to Mrs. Plitkliam for advice as soon as any distressing symp
toms appear. It 1* free, and has put thousands of women on tlte
right road to recovery.
Mrs. Pinkhain never violates the confidence thus entrusted to
her, nnd although she publishes thousands of testimonial* from
women who have been benefited by her advice and medicine,
never In all her experience has she published such a letter without
the full consent, and often .by special request of the writer.
