The distinction Of the greatest living crank

himself In low voice: Have I violated the

The bells cea-s, and not remembering 70

the first tOothpick Then he begins with a
second, going through the same formula. till

Whether animals ever kill themselves i'll
tentiOnally has often been Questioned; but
well authenticated cases Of dogs and cats

There was no way of getting up to the beam
except by climbing the upright side bcams
and the monkey was weak from her illness
yet when the man came back in about 9
half hour, he found her hanging No ons
