usefuller as cats. Mice is
afeared of cats. They bite 'em.
Dogs follers boys and catches

Sleeps bite people. People
eat hogs, but not the Jews, as
they and other animals that

green peas is the rule, but any
vegetable nicely served will be
acceptable.

kin-dish, and place some small
pieces of veal in it, allowing
