herd Of dairy cows, is anxious to get
hold Of q smooth" thief who stole one
Of his best cows and then sold 1t to him
at the great bargain" OF s35. Mr..
WoodIiff met the man at the market,
and was asked IL he wanted to buy a
fine COW. He went to nearby public
stable to examine the animal, which
he remarked when he saw 1t was very
much like one he already owned. He
went home for Mrs. Woodliff and
brought her down to see and approve
the COW before he closed the trade.
She came and was much pleased with
tho cow and the price, commenting on
the striking likeness there was be-

trade was closed. the money paid. and
the COW driven home, and the man who
had made the sale went HIS way. That

and Mrs. Woodliff that they had really
bought their own COW. No trace OF the
