“Patter wants the cat on his back, that’s what he wants,” said Bunny’s father. “It’s one of his tricks. He used to perform with a trained cat, and one trick was that a cat would sit on his back and Patter would march around that way. I got a letter from the Frenchman to-day. In it he told me this was one of the tricks he forgot to mention. Try it, Bunny. Put the cat on Patter’s back.”
