mouse to a kitten. 1t was the first
time she had seen one, and she shifted
at it inquisitively before deciding to
toss it about. A pair of slippers lay

The West End.

Why is it that in most of the cities
of the world fashion makes its home
in the northwestern quarter? Why is
it that the ''west end is so often the
aristocratic section of the city and
least side and south side" so often
the residence of the poorer classes?
1t is fact, and there is a ruling cause
for it. Is it this-that the prevailing
winds of the earth are nOrthwesterly :?
They are in general northwesterly, and
their tendency is to blow the dust
smoke and odors of n city to its east
ern or southern side. This makes the
opposite quarter the more desirable for
