his footing, and fell into the narrow street
upon man who chanced to be passing at
the time. The pedestrian was killed by
the concussion, while the slater escaped
without material injury. &ME
A son of the deceased caused the slater
to be arrested and taken before the Cadi,
where he made the most grave charge, and
claimed ample redress. ~
The Cadi listened attentively. and in the
end asked the slater what he had to Isay in
his defence.

cused in humble mood, cit is even as this
man says; but God forbid that there should
be evil in my heart. / am a poor man,
and know not how / can make amends" i"
The son of the man who had been killed
thereupon demanded that condign punish
ment should be inflicted upon the accused.
The Cadi meditated few moments, and
finally said:

Then to the slater he continued ! Us}
"Thou shalt stand in the street where

Points of n Good Cow.

The Neoo England Farmer enumerates
these as the "points" or qualities of good
cow rbMES f.}98s hgkW0Fl
1. Age.-A cow is at her best when from
4 to 6 years old. The best time to buy is
after her second or third calf.
2. MIX Veires.-These run down the
sides toward the udder. When not visible
they can be felt with the hand, unless the
animal is very fat.
3. The Udder.-It should be broad, pro-
jecting behind the legs and extend for
ward under the belly. Itshould be soft and
thin to the touch. Fleshness and thick
ness are not favorable signs. The full
number of four teats is important. One
less than this means quarter less milk,
for the udder is divided into four separate
compartments or glands. In the best mill
kers the teats stand well apart are uniform
in size, and point downward and outward.
4. Codt.-The skin should be soft and
the hair smooth. -gt4i mum a.,
s. Ten1per.-Large, clear eyes indicate a
quiet disposition, which is eminently fa-
vorable to the secretion and yield of milk.
The general appearance of contentment
which a thoroughly good milker has, is a
very strong point in her favor.
