THE GUM CHEWING cow.
Owner Thought the Habit Had Worn
All Her Upper Teeth
ON

A farmer in Knox county, Me-, has
been saying mean things about a Rock
land shipmaster, and Opinion reports
few. Quoth the farmer: IF I had
hired man that made such piece of
work as he did about that cow of his,
I'd send him off!
"Why, he bought cow of man
down my way; good critter-nothin'
the matter with her. But it seems the
captains wife, one day, thought the
milk tasted funny, and suggested that
p'r'aps she'd been eatin' spruce
boughs; said the milk tasted like
spruce. And what does he do but go
out in the pasture to watch the COW,
to see what she did eat.
"The cow was lynn down, chewin'
her cud, and he went along and run
his finger in her mouth to see what she
was eatin'. Then he was mad. He put
a rope on the cow, and started off with
her.
"'Where are you goin' with the
cow?' says a neighbor.
"'Goin' to take her back to the fell
Ter that sold her to me. He's cheated
me, and L won't stand it!'
"The man wanted to know what was
the matter, and he went on to tell
about it. She wasn't eatin' boughs,
he says, she was chewing gum; that's
what's the matter with the milk and
makes it taste like spruce. And,' he
says, that amt all. She's so addicted
to the habit that she's worn all her
teeth out. She amt got an upper
tooth in her head. Back she goes,
quick!'
''Of course, the man told him that it
was all nonsense; that cows never had
no upper teeth. But he didn't believe
a word of it, and went on and had a
tarnal row with the man that sold him
the COW. Guess he was never satisfied
about it."

CANADIAN BISHOPS WALK.
The Good Man Travelled 1,5OO Miles
on SnOwshOes to Reach
Civilization.

Bishop Newman, of the diocese of
Moosonee, 1000 miles north OF Winni-
peg and directly west of Hudson bay,
arrived in Toronto few days ago after
a trip on snow shoes of 1,500 miles,
which occupied upward of four months,
reports the New York Sun.
Leaving his see house, log struc-
ture 15x2O feet, shortly before Christ
mas, the bishop and his party of In
dams started for Toronto, pulling
their sleds after them. They travelled
at the rate of 20 or 25 miles day,
often with the thermometer register
ing from 20 to 40 degrees below zero,
and sleeping at night in great skin
bags, made with the hair turned inside.
Sometimes they woke in the morning
to find themselves buried under many
feet of light snow.
The bishop and his little party ar
rived here in splendid health. He had
received no news from home since the
close of navigation last fall and only
a few days ago on reaching the out
skirts of this province did he learn of
the death of Queen Victoria.
Bishop Newman came to this city
to make an appeal on behalf of his do
cese and its work. Situated in an al
most barren country, peopled by few
thousand half-breeds, Esquimaux and
Indians, who subsist on hunting and
fishing, his people are badly in need of
assistance. In some years when the
product of the gun and the net give out,
the Indians have been reduced to eat
ing dog flesh.
