his whiskers jerked up and down as he talked, emphasizing his words, and he seemed to forget his auditors as he vit- ualized the morning's tragic occurrences. “T wears myself plumb out,” he said, “chasin’ that cow around the field, drat her! She tramples on all the corn, and I loses my hat and falls down, and when I gits up I jes’ gives it up as a bad job, when what does she do but go par- adin calml o1t tiie hole in che ‘ence on t the roac, like | in the middle of the road, and she looks as if she was a- laughin’ at me. [ellers, that was too much! [ picks up a rock and heaves it at her, and she hoists her tail again and lights out down the road. Then I sees I made a mistake for Betsy, tied a little farther along, gits kind of excited, when she sees that cow a-comin’ down the road like she means to go .ome place. Be sv bacis up:s tor as the rope vill let sir’ sport lets out a yelp you could hear a mile, and hearin’ that racket behind her, Betsy pulls loose and starts down the road while the old black cow is a-comin’ up. I starts to run as fast as I kin, and I says, says I, “Whoa, Betsy ! look out for them eggs!’ But she never pays any attention and the cow, she keeps right on a-comin’ It was awful Every time the wagon hits a rut a few eggs flies out of the bas- kets and smashes in the road, and Sport, who is a-runnin’ behind the wagon, gives an extra howl every time an egg hits him, and Betsy gives another jump, and comes a little might faster. It sure looks like it was a-goin’ to be an aw- ful accident, I knows if they ever hits, I will never be able to put Betsy together again, and I don’t want to pay that old coot, Henry for a cow that eats all my corn. Wa’al boys jest as they was a-comin’ together, and I thinks its all over, Betsy all of a sudden braces all four feet an’ slides along and stops, and the cow turns to one side and tries to pass, But right when Betsy stops so quick, the eggs don’t. They keeps right a-goin’!) They sails up in the air and comes down and busts, jest like them German bombs we reads about in the papers. One whole crateful falls out on Sport and makes a regular omelet on him and all over the road. I gits there just in time to get some, too; I tries to dodge, but it wasn’t no use, a s you gents can plainly see. As for Betsy, she was just wadin’ around and a-snortin’ like a loco- motive. And I'll be switched if that cow didn’t catch one horn in the handle of a basket with it haingin’ on her head and the eggs rattlin’ out and runnin’ down her back. Boys, that was a mess! that was a mess! That place in the road will be one omelet for weeks, and I don’t believe that cus- sed cow is stopped runnin’ yet. I had to lead Betsy back to town, she is so scared, and I konws she will never be hand- some like she was once. Just the same.” and here a satisfied smile spread over his face,“I bet Henry Fulcomb wont rec- ognize his cow the next time he sees her.” He turned to go into the post office, but as he reached the door wheeled about, and shaking a warning finger at the assembly, shouted, “Don’t none of you fellers ever trust an egg, it wont treat you right.” a —EDWARD R.
