INDIAN DONKEYS HAVE A LIFE OF HARD WORK AND HEAVY BLOWS

These small Indian donkeys are treading corn, work more usually performed in Eastern

lands by heavier animals, such as oxen. Fastened together and to an upright post, they

must walk around stolidly, spurred on by blows from their master. In more advanced

countries the complicated threshing machine is^^glQ^ed effectively to the same end.

A COCKNEY HOLIDAY: THE LONDON COSTER WITH HIS

The London donkey, usually known to its driver as "the moke," serves the coster and
his family both on work-days and holidays. It is a sturdy little creature, and draws
heavy loads about the streets, or to Hampstead Heath for a day's merrymaking. The
coster does not usually own -his donkey, but hires it and the cart from a donkey-stable.
