k6S-A gentleman of our acquaintance has
a-good cow, which is in the habit of ''stay-
ing away" day or two every week, and
has to be hunted up. On Monday last, she
disappeared, and a part of Tuesday and
Wednesday was spent in hunting for her,
but without success. On Thursday evening
as our friend was returning from tiresome
and bootess search, he found his COW near
a house in this vicinity, where abe was
standing quietly with some cow company
He did not at first recognize her, as some
one had cut off q part of her tail Just as
he was starting of, man aocosts him with
--"Is that your COW, mister p eyes; why2'
swell, didn't know She hasn't been a
quarter of mile from here for about four
days and as ] seed you looking at her
half dozen times before, and going of, ]
thought she didn't belong to you-thats ALL -
1t was true the owner had seen the COW
and noted her close resemblance to his own
but the MANNED tail had misled him. We
learn that it is usual thing for persons to
cut off the tails of COWS hereabouts, and take
them in charge, trusting that they will moi
be recognized by their owners. These ras'
