Excerpt from The Professor and the Petticoat Garden, will with complete impunity bite little tri angular patches out of the Professor's hide. An'ordi nary cur would straightway shake its life out. The Professor holds the general opinion of dogdom on the subject of cats, but never did the fattest, sleepiest cat fail to find a tree before the Professor had decided where to insert his teeth.
