THE VILLAGE COW.
"11 is a popular belief that the dog is
the most, intelligent of all four -footed
animals. and that next in the mental
scale is the horse," said George Mc-
Daniel. "That is a in istake. The cow
knows more than a horse or dog coin-
bined :u -e capable of learning. An or-
dinary town cow, who has been ac-
corded reasonable facilities for acquir-
ing general information, is much wiser
than some men who have been honored
with proud positions and expensive
funerals. The average town cow can
open it gate that fastens with a time
lock, get into the garden and do $50
worth of damage before the exasperat-
ed owner can ram a charge of slugs
into a muzzle -loading gun. I once
lived in a village where one-half the
inhabitants kept cows, and expected
them to forage their living off the
abet half. Finding the usual gate
fastenings of no avail, I added a bolt
and slept that night secure. The next
morning every cow in the village was
in my garden, and so full of cabbages
that cost me $2 a head to raise that
they could not go through the gat

added a log chain and a patent pa ock,
and sat up in company with a double
barrelled gun to watch proceedings.
An old brindled she -pirate came up
and surveyed the house to make sure
we were abed. Then she shook the
gate and again surveyed the house.
Next she went to work on the bolt
with her tongue. In five minutes she
had it drawn and started to come in.
She looked surprised to flnd herself
still on the outside. Half a dozen of
her companions came up and sur veyed
the new jewellery. Then brindle broke
a horn trying to lift the gate off its
hinges. They, appeared to hold a cowl-
cil of war, then an old spotted gour-
mand inserted a horn under the chain,
lifted it over the post. and the whole
drove marched inside. I gave it up
and took the gate off its hinges. I
now raise all my vegetables at the
market."

WHAT SOME THINGS HAVE
COST.
The magnificent national Capital at
Washington has cost, since the laying
of its cornerstone in 1793, very nearly
$15,000.000, but the State Capitol of
New York at Albany, although not yet
completed according tothe architect's
designs. has already cost almost $20,-
000,000, and is the most expensive
building of modern times.
- The largest and most expensive City
Hall in the United States is that of
Philadelphia. and its principal tower is
to contain the largest clock in the
•
world.
The greatest pine • ever paid for a
horse was $150,000 gi ven by Mr Malcom
Pores. of Boston, for A rion. which he
bought from Senator Stanford. of Cali -
for. nut. Axtell. the trotter, brought
$105,000 when three years old, while
in 1891 St. Blaise was sold for $100,000.
One hundred and three thousand
dollars has been offered, and refused for
a Hebrew Bible now in the library of the
Vatican at Rome. This makes it the
most valuable book in the world. so far
