or and on a Donkey.

When we were boys our first lessons
in riding Were taken on (and Off the
back of donkey. He was a creature of
changeable, but, on the whole, amiable
disposition. When his temper gave way
before the trials to which we subjected
1t, we took many lessons in that gentle
art of falling off which is SO useful a
supplement to the science of riding as
more generally understood. We can
make this avowal without any sense of
shame now, for it happened once on a
day forever memorable that our donkey
kicked off our riding master himself in
all his glory of boots and brooches.
Joe, the coachman' boy, declared all
our theory of donkey riding to be incor-
rect, and 1t is significant that, though
the donkey could kick off the riding
master, boots and brceches and all. it
entirely failed to shake Joe from his
seat by any of its antics. But then Joe's
method was entirely different from that
OF the riding masters. 1t was indeed,
so simple as scarcely to deserve the
name of method, being contained in the
single precept that you should sit as
near the tail of the animal as possible.
That was the sum total of his theory of
donkey riding, and it worked to perfec-
ton i'll practice. Our uncle, who was in
the navy. explained the mechanics Of
Joe's style of riding nautically. Its
