a SURE CURE FoE LICE on CALVES
John Felker. of this t. WI. owned a calf
which had become so covered with lice
rs to loscrespectabIlity among his bovine
relatives. Last week lie resolved to rid
the calf Of its mutinous army of vagrant
insects which we're daily Increasing and
driving poor bossy towards every object
from which it could obtain the comfort
of pain easing scratch" John had
heard of the redeeming qualities of kerr
osene for such purposes, and concluded
that here was chance to experiment
with the article. aud thus obtain per-
sonal knowledge as to whether there was
any virtue IN 1t or not. 1t was evening
when the thought struck him. and he at
once. by the aid Of chimneyless lamp.
procured q can Of the non-explosive and
bringing bossy up. commenced the ton
serial performance Of giving it a thorough
kerosene shampoo. After initiating the
style Of full. blOoded barber for about
half an hour. until his brow was covered
with the frozen sweat of anguish. with

other hand, he commenced to investigate

the lice. ..THUNDERATIoN - exclaimed

thing But when he finally came to hi,
senses. aud his eye-sight returned. he
easily comprehended that he had held
the lamp too near the hair oil on tho
calf aud that there had been spontaneous
combustion. John. we believe survived
the experiment. but the shock was too
great for the calf lie had nearly every
hair completely sizzled and after being
rolled mp in sheets and kept in a warn

experiment was a success. so far as tn,
