So Professor Hogan swells the long list

possessing as much .power and endurttnee
to the ounce of weight as that of the
homing pigeon which last week flew
from Detroit to 13infalo(it5 miles) is tees

like the shifting feathers in a Ilawlee

now commonly agreed by scholars that
the word shoe should be rendered glove,

is rendered "the case or covering of the
