THE BULL IN THE CHEMIST'S SHOP
An Australian correspondent tells ns that a runaway bullock paid a visit to a chemist’s shop in Tasmania the other Jay, creating a very favourable impression. It had the shop to itself, for the terrified shop assistants had no wish to serve this horny customer. The bullock made a tour of the glass cases, treading so daintily that nothing was disturbed, Then it spied a side door and went through it into another shop, but here it met with some opposition, and to show its annoyance set to work on a plate glass window with its horns. It then returned to the chemist’s, and once more it walked carefully round the heavily-laden cases, finally walking out of the front door into the hands of its captors, without having broken a single article.
