each cow and they were drinking. With

quick dash out small door toward the
garden. Mr.. Hewlett hung on to both
ropes and was a close second going
through the door. The other cow was
third through the door, but at the rate
she was going would have finished al
right IL the distance had been longer
The door was about three feet above the
ground, and Mr.. Hewlett estimates the
distance he passed through the air before
he alighted at eight feet. When he was
able to get up and look around both COWS
were contentedly lunching In the beet
bed, picture of innocence and happiness
Mr.. Hewlett had black eye, a skinned
face and the cords of his neck felt strained
and unnatural. 1t was several minutes
before he could use one leg, and yester.
day was the first day he was able to gel
down street.
