Valuable Sheep’s Head.

Butchers of Bethnal Green, London, were surprised recently at the sudden popularity of sheep’s heads with their customers. They could not begin t supply the demand. Inquiry developed the fact that gold had been fouud in the teeth of the sheep which had been shipped in cold storage from Australia. The sheep evidently came from some region Where there are gold outcroppings on the surface, and close grazing left some of the particles in the teeth of the sheep. An attempt will be made to ascertain from what region the Bheep were shipped.
