That is a well-known old-time saying; Init it does 

 not apply to you. because YOU ARE NOT A C.A.T. 

 It is safe for you. and for your wife and your chil- 

 dren, to want to know what is to be found in the 

 woods and the fields around you, in the swamps and 

 meadows, the ponds and ditches. Do not hesitate 

 to indulge in the JOY OF CURIOSITY. You are 

 not a cat. You can satisfy the desire to know by 

 reading 



THE GUIDE TO NATURE 



It is ten cents a copy; one dollar a year.
