one Of the most pleasing traits In
Dr. Johnson's character was his fond
ness for his cat Hodges Boswell ad-
mits that he himself did not love cats
and experienced some discomfort In
their society, a sensation he shares
with other and greater men. But"
writes he, II never shall forget the
Indulgence with which he (Johnson)
treated Hodge, his cat, for whom he
himself used to go out and buy oys-
tiers, lest the servants, having that
trouble, should take a dislike to the
poor creature"
Nor was DR.. Johnson the only liter
ateur with fondness for cats Vie
ter Hugo had great cat named Chan
cine, which always sat on a large red
ottoman In the center Of his salon and
received the noyelists's guests In state.
What Is more, Chanelne showed mark
ed displeRsure II anyone failed to ca
ress or praise her.
Many famous Frenchmen, by the
way, have shown a prediction for
cats, Richelieu found his only relaxa-
ton In keeping a number OF kittens
In his private cabinet and watching
their gambOls during his spare mo-

poet, a very shy man, was always i'll

Chatea Ebriand said that before his
