The horse family of the present day is divided, like most other families, i=
nto two factions, which may be
described for variety's sake as those of the true horses and the donkeys, t=
hese latter including also the
zebras, quaggas, and various other unfamiliar creatures whose names, in ver=
y choice Latin, are only known
to the more diligent visitors at the Sunday Zoo=2E Now everybody must have =
noticed that the chief broad
