Have a look at a.keys(). I suspect that the column name has extra space:
>>> pd.read_csv("s1.csv").keys()
Index([u'size', u' w1', u' h1'], dtype='object')
I that's what you see you can fix it by reading the csv with
skipinitialspace=True:
>>> pd.read_csv("s1.csv", skipinitialspace=True).keys()
Index([u'size', u'w1', u'h1'], dtype='object')
