New Orleans?"Mule ate piano yoi shipped. Send another by next boat. This massage was received yesterdaj by a local piano house from an "up river" purchaser whose $500 instrument had been forwarded via Mississippi river, steamboat. In its usual pine box the piano waE installed in the lower deck next to a lanky, sleepy looking mule bound for the cotton fields of the upper bends. Although provided with plenty of oats and hay the mule ripped off a portion of the piano box, disposed of six octa| ves of black apd white ivory keys and ran the chromatic scale up to "G" in the treble clef. He had gnawed away t^e mahogany panels in front, masticated felt dampers and hammers by the dozens and completely wrecked the melodious "instrument. "Steamboat Bill," stoking a boiler 20 feet away said the mule "must have had his foot on the soft pedal," as he did not hear a note. When discovered the animal was unconcernedly gazing longingly across the river at a grass covered levee. It will cost $330 to repair the piano. / Notice, Pension Board.

Howell, Tracy, O., who bought Foley's Honey and Tar Compound for his wife. "Her case was the worst I have ever seen, and looked like a sure case of consumption. Her lungs were sore and she coughed almost incessantly and her voice was hoarse and weak. Foley's Honey and Tar Compound Drought relief at once and less than three bottles effected a complete cure."
