IN THE INDIAN JUNGLES ADVENTURES IN A CAR. AMUSINO STORY TOLL, BY AN OLD SHIKARI,
I was stopping a few days with my friond Denis, who was a great motorist and incidentally a great shikari, writes Mr. G. 1. Knowles in the Englishman, He lived in a smalt sub-Himalayan station mal was not far from the Terai forests where big game abounds, He only kept two ears: a Ford and a Dodge, both foursenters, He believed in no others.
We had received lows of a mercating tiger which was in the habit of carrying off local traders and poor villagers, who frequented a certain fair in a jungle vil. Inge alt 20 miles distant, The tiger. himself would visit the fair and had taken up his quarters in some scrub jungles close hy.
Denis set his oki cvr going-auel & won- derful car it was and we started, taking in the back sit an old grey-haired patriarch of the jungle village in question wha was my friend's favourite shikari. and, as I discovered, a very jutelligent
The hate, or village fair, was to be held that day, within two miles of which the ger lived. We bumped along the unt ugh unmetalled, district road, and were passing through the scrub jungle, the tiger's abode, where, of course, the old car broke down. We were on the horns of a dilemia, as the tiger was sure to pay us a visit. The old shikhri and I were told off to keep guard with our rifles loaded, while my friend and his trusty chauffeur tried to put new life into the wornout burly-gardy. Our idea was to get all the mer we still from the kitia and organize n' heat,

structions from Hanuman, from whom he had received the feudatory proprietorship of the whole of this sub-Himalayan coun try, to encourage trade among the people. Hanumanza reclined on a mango tree and turned his head at the tinkling sound of bells from the distant village, as the cattle moved out; he heard the crackling of the dry loves close by, and to his surprise and delight, beheld live fair maid- ens from the village, coming down" to the rivulet for water with chetties on their heads. It was the delightful mango sea- son, and the path led under his tree, Now Hanumanza, thrilled with the joy of all nature around hini, found a sense of hum out arising, which tickled him into a play- ful mood. He let his gigantic tail full to the ground, and, turning the end up in imitation of a cobra's hood, he made it sway angrily from side to sida in the middle of the pathway, to arrest the merry maides on their quest Then came the young damsels in the highest spirits, mak-
