A poor tiller of the soil bad owned for a number of years a valuable cow Of a home* sudden h® began To find that the beaat always atood in her atall with her tall toward the south where the manger was. her head toward the north. He tried various meana of maktng the cow stand the other way, her head to the south and her tail to the north, but no matter how many times he set her properly In her stall she always turned around. Finally there waa nothing to do but rebuild the stall to suit the cow Somewhat later war came and the poor tiller of the soil had to Join his regiment and go and fight for the fatherland. Hie wife and children, reduced to dire pov erty. were forced to sell the cow to the butcher, who slaughtered her and sold her meat at famine prices to his fellow townsmen. At the same time, however, the mystery of the animal's unaccountable behavior was cleared up. In the body of the cow was found a small compass which the poor man, her owner, bad lost some months be\ fore from his watch chain. Evidently It had fallen among the half and been eaten.
