"Jn regard to mules , " observed the
lontnna man , who had been a patient
atoncr , "in regard to mnlca , 1 mind
vhon wo opened the Pistol Pocket mine
n 78. The ground was froze a hundred
sot on a lorel , nnd wo had to blast out
10 quartz and dirt with anything wo
ould got. Ono day n mule o' mine oat
l > all the giant powder catridgca wo had ,
nd aa tvo waa 300 miles from a store , wo
ere stumped. "
"Know what tht.t means , " murmured
forty-niner. "Boon out o' whisky in
lie same conditions. "
"All our money was into the mine , and
TO couldn't qot nowliar till the dirt
> egan to pan. I wanted to kill the mule
traight out , but my parda said not ,
nd ono of 'em , Sway back Foeloy ; know
"You hot ! Mo and SwAyback cut a
lolo a milo long into the Comstock
ovol and- would have made a million
inly a grizzly b'ar clum into our condjo'
hoholu , nndjwo had to como out through
ho Comstock shaft and give ourselves
up. "
"Ho told mo about that. 'Well ; this
same Swayback allowed as the mule had
> at the catridgcs , he'd got to do the
jlaatin , ' so ho tied some stones up in the
oats and fed 'em into the mulo. His
dee was that when the digestion of the
mule , boiu" filled with stones , kotched
onto the fulminatin' ccnd o' them
cartridges , thpro would bo a hnistin' o'
dirt. So ho tied the mule over vrhcro wo
was workin' and wo wont oif a bit to see
.hings commence. " *
' Very clover , " nodded the Californian
approvingly. "Swayback had a head. I
remember once when ho was goin' across
lead Man's Desert , in Arizona , ho filled
liinaolf up with timothy seed , and then
put in carrots , and turnips , aud straw-
Worries , and lettuce , and radishes. The
timothy growed and the rest a' the seeds
book root in it , so all ho had to do was to
walk along and digest fresh vegetables.
Ho was the only man that over walked
across that desert alivo. "
"Ho told mo about it , " continued the
Montana man , a little dazod. "Well , wo
watched for a couple o' hours and then
the proceedin's opened. Why , sir , that
dirt ilow a thousand feet in the air.
Every time a cartridge wont off the mule
would get in his work , and for seven daye
wo war dodgin' bowlders and try in' to gil
him out. At the end 'o that time ho must
ha * boon a milo under ground , cause he
struck water , and the water poured uj
highor'n wojcould see ! "
"That so ? " said the Californian , witl
an expression of pain.
"You bet , but it ap'iled the mine
Swayback and mo never seen no yollo
outeu that hole. "
"Didn't on ! Lost money ? "
"Mado monoy. Never made as mucl
money bcfdro or since. Wo sold it to i
tenderfoot bank president for a geyser
and got out noforo the mule died. I novel
heard what the tenderfoot did with it. '
"Stranger , " whispered the California !
confidentially , "did Swayback got any o ;
the purchase money ? "
"Got it all , " whispered the Montam
man , with his hand to his mouth.
"That's Swayback. Same man. Stranger <

WM. HALL'S BA.LHAM very extensively in hii
practice , aa many of his patients , now living-
and restored to health by the use of this in
valuable medicine , can amply testify. Hi
always said that so good a remedy ought no !
to be considered meiely as a patent medicine
but that it ought to bo prescribed freely b ]
every physician as a sovereign remedy in af
cases of Lung diseases. It is a sure cure foi
Cousumptionand lias no equal for all pectora
