How Lord Kelvin Saved His Neck.

The late Lord Kelvin. when he was
deep In some abstract problem, was
very absent-minded and unpunctual.
So much so, that his parrot used al

time to catch trains. and for many
years persisted in jumping into

the great risk Of his limbs. His

In disguise, for 1t saved his neck.
