The Orinun emperor likes to study

a room next to the one used for business
purposes for himself. A certain great
BPientiflf! man, having on one occiudou
an interview with the eniporor, left his
liat in the adjoining vestibule.. There
the little brothers discovered' It, and
the crown prince, explaining1 to the
younger ones that "pupa" sometimes
