87 choicest, and retreated again in haste as if ashamed of himself. How very pleased she looks ! She's pleasant to converse with, too. " Is she fond of cats ?" " Oh ! yes, and the master delights in them too. He keeps quite a number. Neko^ did the gen- tleman say ? No, no, this is not a nedzumi or rat killer, he's a heJw — a hebi, or snake killer, and that tortoise-shell fellow who has just come through the hole in the paper door is a toko, or tori (bird) killer. Otoko did the gentleman say ? A...h ! I see he's jok- ing, and I am such a poor hand at finding out a joke. Is it not strange the power that cats are possessed of? I have heard the master say that in noble families when a member dies and lies in state, a wakizashi or short sword is placed beside his hand to enable him, if brought to life again by a cat sit- ting upon his body, to kill his tormentor. With us poor folks it does not matter, though, as we are hurried into our coffins at once. Extraordinary, in- deed. Sir ! Then again, — but I hear the master call- ing for me and I must go.
