cover pimple on which to dwell with

collection of stuffed birds, the critic
proceeded to pass very unfavorable
judgment on q stuffed eagle he had not
seen before. The bird did not look at
all natural, and he noticed that the
head was not in the right position.
Suppose you put the head in the
right position, suggested the proprie-

The critic attempted to do so, but the
stuffed bird took liberal bite out of
his finger. He had been criticising a
