Show AN UNUSUAL SIGHT. A Cow's Show of Fright and Sorrow Over Its Afflicted Offspring, An unusual sight was witnessed on Farming street last Sunday nfterr.oon. It was a distracted cow vainly attempting to free her calf of a foreign appendage. It seems that some mischievous boys had tied a long, black rag to the tail of the calf. The frightened little animal was wildly running down the street, kicking back at the big rag at every jump. But the maddened mad-dened mother was the most interesting interest-ing object. She seemed wild with anger and sorrow. She kept along side the fleeing calf, hooking the Hying rag, stamping it and bellowing bellow-ing loudly. Her bellowings were so full of terrified horror and an- guish for her alllicted offspring, that we believe had the boys who were guilty of attaching that object to the calf's tail heard the la-menting la-menting cries of the grief-stricken mother, they would have heartily repented their thoughtless act. |
