amusing Incident concerniug . hard Old
customer in the town Of Hindsdsls, wht
sas never known to attend church, mvca

wofship in his own home. The old fellow
nad = "mulsy cow which was alwaya
nosing around the house, picking up what.
ever edibles came in her way. The othel
oight barrel containing slops had been
eft ont near the corner of the wood shed,
,ad the cow in her peregfinationa soon
struck the bonanza. Thrusting her head
into the barrel. "muley" began voracious-
" to make way with the contents. As the
lops diminished in The barrel, In the
,ame proportion the old COW thrust her
her head in deeper. But when she at
empted to withdraw her head from the
barrel, the animal found it had become
irmly wedged over the head and neck.
rhe old bovine turned round and round
t,r awhile, then blindly started of on
run. As luck would have it she struck
nee line for the house, and directly for tn,
front door. The old man was sitting in
side telling his family all about the great
Hendryx murder trial, when the COW gave
4 frightful below. Which was prolonged
BY the empty barrel into an unearthly roar
At the same instant the front door crashed
from its hinges, and the COW, with her un.
common head gear, bolted into the room.
"Old wickedness" gave one sgonized look
