And what was little Gulab's reward for saving the six Englishmen? Well, the little Prince, whose birthday it was, came and took Gulab by the hand, and brought him to the grand palace, and gave him lots and lots to eat—cakes and ice cream and candy—so that Gulab went home that night very full and very happy.
CHAPTER IX
Deer and Antelope
The buffalo has many relatives among other animals which also have horns. In fact, all animals that have horns are some relation to each other—first cousin, second cousin, third cousin, and so on.
The buffalo's nearest relatives are the ordinary cows and bulls that you see in the fields.
"But the sheep and the goat also have horns," you may say. "Are they also cousins?"
Yes, they are. In the same way the deer and the antelope are also cousins to each other. I am now going to tell you about them.
The deer and the antelope are not exactly the same kind of animal, as you might perhaps think. As I said, they are only cousins. If you look at them carefully in the pictures on pages 103 and 109 you will see which is the antelope and which is the deer—just as you can tell a sheep from a goat.
