A Really Able Rat StorY.

4 large number of rats established
themselves in u hay loft, about midway
between the floor and the top of the
hay. The owner of the premises, hear
ing continuous squalling noise in the
loft, took fork and removed the hay
from the place whence the noise pro-
ceedcd, and uncovered a nest of about
twenty rats. Several of them ran and
were caught by the dog, but Il bundle of
sixteen full-grown animals remained on
the spot their tales were plated to-
gether, something after the fashion of u
whip cord. By picking up one Of them
the rest adhered and could not be shaken
apart. 1t was supposed by persons who
saw them that in order to avoid the cold
the rat occupying the top Of the pile
sought warmer place by creeping I'M
derneath, but, not having room to draw
his tail after him, 1t was left sticking
out, the next rat did the same, and so on
until all had changed their position,
and every individual rats tail was en-
twined into the curious knot that held
them together. If they had not been
discovered and killed they must have
starved, as they could not have sepa-
/ rated Cunoquenesseng On. W News.

Gucniher's Mills, san Antonio, Texas,

.
Is worthy Of being recommended TO
every one iirst-class flour, 1t Is not
excelled by any other in quality and
taste. This flour is not claimed to be n
patent flour, but it is manufactured by
mills that are furnished with all the best
improved machinery, and only the very
best wheat Is used; the flour not only
contains the starch of the wheat, but
also the gluten, which secures the origi-
nal strength and taste of wheat flour.
The real white patent flour contains
very little gluten, and is, therefore, less
nutritious. Guenther's Best Flour has
been in the market since 1861, and its
name was never changed. Since then
many different kinds of flour, with high
toned names, and ornamented with di-
plomas have been introduced into this
market, but nearly all of them have
silently disappeared. The wheat crop
has been very good this year, especially
in Northern Texas, and the manufac-
turers of Guenther's Best are now able
to furnish good flour at very reasonable
prices. The flour is not retailed at the
mills. but in order that customers may
have the flour fresh, 1t is delivered daily
to all leading grocers.

This can be seen at glance when we

Portable and homelike in the closer and

full to select patterns that combine the
useful with the ornamental, and up to

Good Nerve.

An incident happened very shortly af-
stretched across the East river from the
two abutments upon which now hangs
suspended the grandest bridge In the
world: "a lasting monument to the
skill of the engineers, and looked upon
with pride by all Americans and viewed
with admiration and wonder by the
world" A small car had been arranged
so that the workmen could wheel them
selves across the span, twisting each
time as they did so another wire into
the grand cable which now forms one of
of the main supports of this costly struc-
ture. A prominent young lady con-
ceived the idea of crossing In the same
manner as the workmen, and although
her friends tried hard to dissuade her, 1t
was all to no purpose. The rash lady
assembled to the summit of the pier, and
seating herself in the chair, 1t was but a
moment before she was pluckily draw
ing herself toward the opposite pier.
Such courage could not but be admired.
But as they gazed on the poor girl they
noticed that she had stopped almost in
the very center of the cable, and horrors,
as they look again her head has fallen
forward. and she waves white hand-
Serchief in her hand telling her friends
that she is fainting. The widest con-
I sternation now ensued; the ladies
screamed and tainted and the gentlemen
offered large sums TO anyone who would
attempt a rescue. After much hesita-
ton handsome young man dressed as n
sailor volunteered to make the attempt.
The brave lad, after divesting himself of
hat and shoes, started out hand over
hand toward the still swaying figure so
far from him. AS the young girl had
now completely lost consciousness it was
feared by many that the swaying Of the
cable would throw her out of the chair.
Many turned away unable to look at
such spectacle, and ten thousand 9TH
ers on both shores watched the sailors
progress with interest. The brave lad
finally reached the car, and rs he, sup
porting the lady with one arm, sue
cessfully commenced the return trip a
mighty shout arose, and ten thousand
handkerchiefs were applied to tear
stained eyes. Hark, another resounding
shout, ''she is savedr' "she is saved!''
But the brave fellow has tainted and
they are applying restoratives; he opens
his eyes and receives their thanks but
refuses all offers Of money, saying, "No
keep the money; did not do 1t for that, ,
and added, ~ seldom need money, but
when do, go to my uncle, Emerson
, in San Antonio, Texas, and always
get it."

Wedding Rings

The reporter entered the store and ill.,
quired what was the present style Of
the wedding ring.
1.-The more cultivated class replied
the young man behind the counter,
"uses the old fashioned gypsy ring. 1t
is a small circle like this, said he taking
one Of the yellowest gold from the case.
"lou see its color is quite different from
the modern gold, and that while it APP
pears slender it is very thick. Heavy
rings are not in good form for nuptial
use. In fact, even our finest stones are
set in a style to appear delicate. "-lChi-
