Mule packing is a . fine art, : and .with a we4 trained animal and : a skillful packer you can safely transport anything from a piano to , a bag of oats. When the packer has ' finished his job in an artistic man- , rier,s. the animal may buck or ,back, : kick or rear or roll, but he Cannot ; rid himself of his burden, and he I - filially gives it ' up in despair. - After ' two or threeexperiences he will, submit to his destiny and fall_ into, line with the r4st of the train. every, morning to receive his load from, the packer. • A! well trained pack; mulo is always' proud of his load,' and if by any means It gets loose he will step quietly out of line' and wait- until the packmaster comes along to tighten it, .. The most serious objection t� the mule, . :Which yon -sometimes find inr human beings allso, is the delusion that he can sing. One who has never: heard a .mule scilo cannot appreciate the extent of hs mistake; but, likel everything ,,else about a mule, his: song is strictly original. It belongs to no -other animal. No one can 'deal cribe and no one can imitate it. - New York Mail 1 and Express. !

When the city ,couneils of Pittsburg paid their annual visits. to the municipal poor farm, there was included in the party a Ger- man and an Iriehmen who are good friends* but between whom a sharp line ie drawn in the matter of nationality. Going through the home department, the German, with just a suspicion of race prejudice, remark= ed: ;; "1 notice that these people are nearly al Irish." "So they are," the Irishman said, "but wait till we get over into the crazy house ; that's where they keep the Dutch." They entered the insane department just as an inmate who imagines he is a great orator was making a speech ireGerman. " What did I tell you ?" asked the Irish- man. " Oh, well," replied the German, "you can not go crazy if you have not got brains." • HAGYARD'S YELLOW OIL cures all pain in man ot beast ; for sprains, cuts, bruises, callous lumps swellings, inflammation, rheumatism and neuralgia it is a specific. • They Didn't Mind What She Had. A woman who had been a victim of indi- gestion, and is kept to dyepeptic's diet most of the time, was recently invited to a din- ner, which she was anxious to attend. She went to her telephone, and trusting to somewhat unreliable memory, she asked to be connected by the ever -obliging " Cen- tral," with telephone 2,394. When the connection was made, she began her plan- tive query without any profactory, " Is that you doctor ?" "1 waat very much to go to a little din- ner to -morrow night," she began, rapidly, "and do you think it would hurt me if I ate just a taste of soup, and perhaps a little fish, or the least trifle of game, 'and a bit of salad or ice ?"

Russell Taylor in ibnerea THE CEMETERY GHOST. A Mystery That Was Ean14y Explai ed by a scientific Man. Professor W. J. McGee, in charge lof the bureau of ethnology, is well kno as a member of the amous Society For Psychical Research and says that lhe used to have a fad of sleeping in haunted houses, but never succeeded in finding a ghost indoors, although he once hunted up and caught one out in the open. "While I was once in a country town," he said, "a clerk in a store shot and killed a burglar who had succeeded in forcing an entrance. The coroner, a superannuat- ed politician, was called from a neighbor- ing village, viewed the corpse and pro- nounced the man deserving of death. Without an examination the body was thrown into an ordinary box, carted off to the cemetery and unceremoniously buried. The townspeople, incensed at such a careless proceeding, protested, and a physician was later deputized to disin- ter the body. This was done. Later the body was returned to the grave, and the box was only about half covered with earth. "Within a few months there began to be vague rumors about things not being exactly right at the cethetery. I paid xo attention until an old, hard headed farm- er came to me and, explaining that he had heard that I professed to some scien- tific knowledge, asked me Ito investigate the ghosts which, he said, he had seen the night before in the graveyard. "I waited a few nights, faring a prac- tical joke and, going out tlhe back way across lots, reached the ceMetery about 10 o'clock, the night being very dark. I stopped at the corner of t ie graveyard, about 75 yards from the r bber's graVe. It was a chilly night, with an occasional gust of ind. I waited pr bably half pr three-qu&rters of an hour, occasionally glancing toward the spot u til I, like the others, `saw something.' 1 watched the specter for a long time. I "Above the grave hovered s white fig- ure tapering toward the bead and an- swering the descriptions of the people be- holding it previously, whet had said it wore a tall, peaked cap. It; made irregU- lar movements, sosmetimels crouching, sometimes standing. I had heard rumors tat there appeared not only the ghoSt o± the robber, but the little ghosts of his children, who, the presumption was, had starved to death. Sure enough, the little ghosts began to appear. The figures wene apparently indulging in weird orgies. started toward them. As I approache0 they gradually became more indistinct and finally melted entirely Into the at- mosphere. I went back some dIstanee until they reappeared, like blue flames of fire. Suddenly I remembered a former experience, and the whole explanation was clear. The ghosts were in reality, as I afterward proved, the phosphores- cent fumes due to decoraposition of the organic games thrown off by the robborls body, half coyered as It was, in the still, humid air. Yet this was as veritable a ghost as has ever bees sieen."-Washing- ton Times. In Little Bohemia. The two literary people were going out to luncheon together. "How much money have you.got?" ask- ed •one. "Twelve cents, just," said the- other, counting. "And you?" "I've got only 5 cents. I thought you had enough." "Ah, well, I can borrow 8 cents." After a luncheon on coffee and cakel5 amounting to 10 cents each the younger literary man said, "I'll match you for tke cigars." "But we; haven't a coin to match with," said his senior in "the business." The younger man was an optimist. Ile said, "We"11 go to the cigar store and borrow a coin and match, and the loser will get the man to trust him for cigars." "You go to the '-!" said the older, who was a pessimist. "You get the ci- gars on credit, and when we are paid WS afternoon we'll match, and the loser will do the paying." ' The younger got the cigars. Later the older man paid for them. -New York Commercial Advertiser. The Deacon's Ultimatum. "Job wuz in de' real estate en stock raisin business," said an old colored deaf - eon.
