Prof. Cation, illustrating the strong
likeness which often exists between
members of the same family, reports the
following facts: One boy sometimes
spoke to himself in Q looking-glass,
thinking that he was talking to his
brother. A little girl, whose mother
and aunt were twins, often called her
aunt mother" and her mother
''auntie," SO much alike were those
ladies.
ION one occasion, when I returned
from foreign service" says . British
officer, my father turned TO me
and said: I thought you were in Lon
don,' thinking was my brother; yet he
had not seen me for nearly four years.
But the following anecdote is still
more interesting, says the Youths Com
panion. 1t was sent to Prof Cation by
a young EnglishInan, who says: 81 was
coming home from India on leave O.
absence. The ship did not arrive fol
some days after it was due. My twin
brother. Ben, had come up to receive
me, and our aged mother was very nerv
Gus.
Zone morning, after she had under
gone several disappointments because
of the ships delay, 1 rushed into he,
room, saying: %, mother, how are you?
Her answer was: No, Benjamin, it's 6
bad joke; you know how anxious an
for Alfred 1t was some time before
could convince my mother that wa.
her son Alfred, who had been away &
long, and not my twin brother, Ben
