Casavant & Cloutier have a cat that

has she lifted up her voice in the way
cats are won't to do, a fact which would
render her far more valuable to many
than is the ordinary everyday cat
whose we'll known sleep dispelling ut
terances so often torture the midnight
air. But though bereft of one of the
chief characteristics of her race she is
not lacking in other ways, and is con-
sidered one of the best mousers on Water

mother of five little kittens, and if her
owner could give written guarantee
that her kittens would prove as noise
less as she is, they could reap harvest
