cage Tom was ready, and pounced upon
him instanter. To the surprise of all,
however, he did not hurt him. His claws
were sheathed, and he plainly invited q
romp. The rat did not understand his adj
vances at first, but was soon reassrlred,
and would finally run from the men to the
cat for protection. In a short time they
became fast friends. They now play to-
gether constantly, and seem to understand
each other perfectly. The rat climbs all
over Toms back, pulls his ears and tail,
and treats his big friend with the utmost
freedom. Both spend the greater part of
their time under the stove in the stable
office, and large numbers of visitors go
there to witness the unusual friendship
between such natural enemies.
