An enormous ram was taking a great interest in him, and the terrifying creature began to come nearer. The man quickened his step, and the ram quickened its step, too, the 100yds to the nearest fence being made in record time by both of them. Happily, the man arrived there first, to the accompaniment of peals of laughter from a group of milkmaids. When he asked them what amused them, they told him that the fearsome-looking rain had been a pet lamb, and had never lost interest in the sight of the milk paill CLUMSY The circus performance had started, and a latecomer was pushing his way through to his seat. “ Did 1 tread on your foot?” he asked, as he saw a man wince. The injured man looked towards the ring. “ I’m afraid it must have been you,” he said; “ the elephants are all down there.”
