How he beloved and how he
stamped the earth as he plunged
into the great locomotive.
"This Is terrible" gasped
Bobby, knowing what the bull
meant to the villagers. What
will they do?"
But, just about this time, the
sacred bull became discouraged,
shifted defiantly at his enemy
and walked ofe in disgust.
Then, such a chattering and
Jabbering you never heard in
all your life.
Then, all of a sudden, there
seemed to be a change in the
feelings of the people, for they
all walked near the engine and
made deep bows to it, some
touching their turbans to-. the
dust.
What does that .mean?" I
asked OF my British netghbor.
"Oh. it's all right" he chuckled
And a good thing for the rail-

So from that time on every
