8 Domestic Animals 



"Pussy-cat wasn't very wise, was she, children? 

 She couldn't have had very good eyes, could she ? 

 I would have seen more than that, in a big, splendid 

 palace, and have taken at least one good look at the 

 queen herself, wouldn't you ? But then, some people 

 never do see much, even when there is a lot to see, 

 do they?" 



" How many of you little people have a pussy-cat 

 at home?" 



Nearly every hand went up. 



"Very well; now I shall know to-morrow morning 

 what kind of eyes you have, and, perhaps, what 

 kind of ears you have, and if they are 'good to see 

 and hear with, my dears'; " and she began pinning 

 some little pink papers to the children's frocks and 

 blouses, on which were the following hektographed 

 questions: 



1 What is the color of your kitty? 



2 What kind of a coat does she wear? 



3 What does she eat? 



4 How often do you feed her? 



5 What does she like best to eat ? 



6 What sounds does she make ? What do they mean ?
