"Paris is undoubtedly the most remarkable city in the world," said a pompons Frenchman, "for its Zoological Hardens contain at least one specimen of every animal known lo man." "Nolieselise !" replied tile Fnglislliiiim. "The very strangest creature in the world is not represented in the Pal is Zoo." ••And what is that '.'" asked the indignant Frenchman. "A Chinaman," quoth the Briton. "Indeed. And how is he the queerest creature in the world?" "Because the head and tail grow in the same place."
