The Right Kind Of q Boy.

Over fifty years ago q youth, working on
q farm, asked his father to gve HIM
money enough to buy gun. The old
man could not spare it; but the boy, moth
ing daunted, found an old pece Of iron
about the place, and in the course of time
to make gun barrel out of it.
with the very mere facilities affurded by
. country blacksmith's shop. He had not
the materials to make q lock and stock.
80 he walked to the nearest town and trad
ed for the necessary attachments, and was
encouraged by the smith for having made
so good shooter; this gave him the am
bitlon to make another; 10 he went to cut
ting out grindstones from the native rock
to raise the money for gun materials, and
in sho.t time there was . considerable
dcmand for guns of his make. During
the French war with Prussia he was called
upon to furnish guns for the army, and
iu less than eight months he made and de-
livered to the government of France rifles
of particular pattern, costing IS, ZOO, 900,
which amount was duly paid. The same
MAI furnishes rifles now for the United
States, South America, Rome, Spain,
Egypt snd Japan.
The farmers boy who wanted . gun Is

ground, and he employs twelve hundred

A Rat Story.

Either Carlisle, Pennsylvania, is good
place for stories to grow in, or the rats
there are roarers among rodents. The 10
|cal paper gives . long account of the ad-
ventures of Mr.. Jesse Laverty. and Vic
tor Hugo never surpassed the sketch In
Paris sewer and its hordes.
M. Jesse Laverty it seems has of late
been very much annoyed by the extensive
of rats in his granary, and.
having discovered that the thieves entered
only At one place, he resolved TO trap
them. He covered the granary hoor with
corn meal and waited until The rats were
in the building in force, and then nailed
|up tho hole. Then. taking his dog and
club, Mr.. Lavcrty entered the grsnary.
The door fastened with wooden latch on
the outside, aud in shutting 1t he fastened
himself in, but Mr.. Laycrty didn't mind
that; hc felt that he was to make big
haul of rats. In about minute he found
his mistake. The building was swarming
with the half-starved creaturcs-there
were rats everywhere, and, seeing no way
of escape, they became at once assailants.
The man aimed blows at them thick and
fast, and one blow of the club came down
upon the dogs head, killing him then and
there, and leaving Laverty among the rats
alone. Then the usually insignificant
beasts assumed an even greater ferocity,
and attacked the man IN swarms. They
climbed over him and bit him everywhere
one even tore his nose; and very roughly
would it have Jared with Mr.. Laverty had
not u passing neighbor, attracted by his
cries, opened the door and allowed him to
escape. As it was, the owner Of the gran
ary presented shocking spectacle-his
face and hands all bloody, and clothing
literally literally in shreds. But the rats
were in the granary yet, and Mr. Laverty
wanted to exterminaie them. He owned
three cats, and collected from the neigh.
bors twelve more; then he put the entire
fifteen in the granary and shut the door.
Seven brass bands couldn't have produced
much greater or more varied noises than
came from the interior of that granary
during the night, but all was quiet when
Mr.. Laverty wentout and opened the door
in the morning. What he discovered,
though, rather startled him. There were
zen dead cats, one blind one, two with one
eye apiece, and two entirely unhurt. Up
on the floor were one hundred and nine
