From the London Telegraph: How

geography OF Bohemia? He makes one
OF his characters say: Thunder shall

lately, at Sandwich, thousand OF dead
cells have been found floating in the
Deli stream, near that town, after the
recent thunderstorms. Are they so
sensitive, and is that why there are
electric cells? 1t Is very curious!
