DR.. II. OsmCnd Carr has told a story
Of how, seeing one of his own operas
advertised for performance at Harro-
gate while he was on visit to that
resort, he went in to see the perform

aged invalid was carried into the
front row Of the stalls by stalwart at

poser was gratiied to see how the In
valid led the applause after every
number humping vigorously with tho
stick with which he had been pro-
vided.
During the first intermission, how
ever, the humping was continued, and
then the secret was out. The aged
playgoer had expected to see drama.
was disgusted to find that the piece
was a comic opera and had been
to signal his attendants to
come and take him out.-London

EGYPTIANS FOND OF CATS
Animal Was Not Only a Domestic Pet,
but Was Honored When
~ II Died. 1NB

The Egyptians are the first people
among whom we find notices OF the
cat. It figures largely upon the mon
uments as a domestic pet, ana was
honored when dead. Comical stories
are told by Herodotus of the anxiety
10 save the cats when a house caught,
fire, and the grief when one died. The
cat seems to have served as retriever
in fowling expeditions. and even in
fishing. 1t seems strange that no mem
tlOn Of the cat occurs IN the Bible
or IN any Assyrian record. Even Ia
india II was but recently known as
domestic animal. Its Sanscrit name
IS mariara, from a root meaning to
clean. from the creatures habit Of
licking herself at her toilet. Her msus-
Ing habits were well known to the
Romans, and even 10 the Etruscans, as
shown by antique gems and even wall
paintings. The mouse killer domestI-
Gated among the Greeks, called gale,

pusly referred to by Aristophanes I'm
Pence has been shown by Professor
Rolleston to have been our white
breasted marten. Besides the cat. the
Egyptians domesticated the ichneu-
non, popularity known as Pharaoh's
at, which is still to be seen in the
louses at Cairo.
