ions, says Of this work-"This is one of the
most judicious and practical books Tor a pri-
mary school, we have yet seen. The Geo:
graphical details are well selected, and The
chapter on natural history will furnish much
lood Tor thought, and will aid the early for
nation OF good mental habits. The civil
history is sufficiently copous Tor the purpos-
es OF such volume, and the account OF the
hardShps OF the early settlers is highly in
structive and entertaining. Books, such as
this, contain the true elements OF rnghten-
ed patriotism, and possess mnch higher
value than IS apparent at first sight"

Rat Traps. A very simple process has
lately been practiscd by farmer near I'd
inhurgh of exterminating rats. His barn
had been infested with them TO M alarming
extent, and he fell upon the following plan
TO get rid of them. He placed large cop
per kettle in his corn loft, then filling it
about half full of water, strewed chaff over
it so as to cover the surface of the water,
and placing boards from the walls to the
kettle, the rats mislaking the chafl for grain
made the fearful leap, and in this way 400
of them were drowned.
