81. II to stop a train going at full speed.
We should suppose the expense would

original location north of the coal
sheds to a spot further to the west.
The Wrecking car attached chain to

horse. Yesterday morning he rode
down on bicycle, and his mind evil
IDENTIFY wandered from his steed to the
beauties of the landscape or some such
matter, for absorbed in revere he rode
straight for the water trough and when
he became himself again found that he
was patiently waiting for his bicycle to
have drink.
"A bicycle riding instructor has
compiled the following simple rules to
guide the beginner; 1. Grasp the ham
die bars lightly. Do not stlffen the
muscles of the arms and shoulders. 2.
Turn the wheel gently in the direction
toward which you feel you are falling.
