"The high saddle," said the Sergeant, "was invented by a party called Peters that spent his ice in foreign parts riding on camels and other lofty animals - giraffes, elephant and birds that can run like hares and lay eggs the size of the bowl you see in a steam laundry where they keep the chemical water for taking the tar out of men's pants. When he came home from the wars he thought hard of sitting on a low saddle and one night accidentally when he was in bed he invented the high saddle as the outcome of his perpetual cerebration and mental researches. The high saddle was the father of the low handlebars. It crucifies the fork and gives you a blood rush in the head, it is very sore on the internal organs.""which of the organs?" I inquired."both of them," said the sergeant.
