! morning last week the lady went into
the pen to milk, and while she was pes:
forming the duty, the coy switched her
tail into the neatly doneup hair on the
lady's head. The burrs caught, and the
lady dropped the pan and milk and be-.
| gan to entangle her hair. The operation
| disturbed the COW, and she began to
prance. The;lady grabbed the pan and.
said, $50 wench so, wench I" but the
| weneh not liking the grip started in
! trot around the pen. The lady startled
! the household by her shrieks, and a.
negro woman: ran to her rescue, but had
to return to the house for pair Of scis-
sors. The COW was driven into q stall,
her tail trimmed off and left sticking to
the lady's head. She went to the house,
and it took her husband, the negro wo-.
man and the family until ,1G o'clock that
night to pick the burrs from her head.
