just as the points of its fur were at

of the earth. l was led to this by some
observations that | had made some
years previously in London suburb.
Then | noticed that the cats of that
particular district had tendency to
walk in. particular directions, on the
walls that faced the north, rather than
to walk on the walls that ran east and

When she couldn't get forty cents for

considerations seem 10 have been
