A ShreWd Rodent,

The railroad station at Plainfeld, Conn.
junction is a rat metropolis. they increase
and prosper, and are so little interfered with
that they are not shy. When there are only
a few people in the station the rats come out,
walk leisurely about and help themselves to
provender. One day last week a lady en-
ployed there heard a thumping noise on the
restaurant counter, and, locking in the direc-
tion of the noise, saw a rat taking hard
boiled egg from the counter. When the rat
jumped down with his Booty the lady called
a clerk, who was the only person in the sta
ton beside herself, and watched the rat as he
returned and took the second egg from the
plate. He was apparently an old and know
ing rat. The eggs were covered with wire
screen or turret The rat had been there be-
FORE He walked carefully around the plate,
inspecting the screen, touching the cover
with his nose, then he put one foot under it
and with foot and head pushed the wire
cover off the plate until one side rested on
the counter, with the other side raised up.
He then took an egg in his paws and rolled it
two feet away and left it on the COUNTER The
rat then returned to adjust the cover. With
teeth and feet he succeeded in dragging the
cover over the eggs He then surveyed his

pulling to adjust it, and stepping back again
took another look, and that settled it. Every
thing seemed to be adjusted just as he had
found it, Having removed everything that
would excite suspicion he took the second
stolen egg and departed Hannah thieves

Mexican Celebration.

Mud and rain, more mud than rain,
interfered very materially with the
pleasure of the second days celebra-
ton of the seventy-ninth anniversary
of the declaration of Mexican .inde-
pendence. The discouraging atmos-
phere, lowering skies, and bottomless
mud did not prevent a very consider
able number from attending the ex-
ercises at the park, and those who
went heard some very substituting
patriotic utterances, while those who
tripped the light fantastic had a
pleasant time in the pavilion. To-
day closes the celebration with speech
making and fireworks at night. The
forenoon has been rainless and it
promises fair for a more pleasant af-
ternoon overhead than has yet been
granted the patriots whom no dis
cOuragements of mud and rain can
diShearten.

Now that the San Antonio Fair is

there is such a place as Del Rio that
Val Verde county is rich in minerals,
stock, fruit and vegetable products,
and that she is inhabited by a live,
intelligent, progressive class of
people,"
San Antonio will welcome no sec
ton ofTexas more cordially than that
represented by the Record. Val

About his Brother.

Several years ago my brother, who lives with me, had very strange sore to break out on his leg-about half way between the body and the knee-which afterwards developed into rose cancer. It resulted from bruise made by the rubbing of the stirrup-leathel while riding.
 The cancer continued to grow until it was about five inches long, and three wide. The flesh sloughed off, black, rotten and foul, and it was almost impossible to procure servant that would wait upon him, the air in the room where he lay being so foul that it would sick en anyone who entered. Every physician o any prominence in the state was consulted and treated my brother without success. One doctor finally advised him to try Swift's Spe cifc (S. s.
