A MINER AND RATS.

John Clarkson tells an interesting
story Of how he came near being de-
voured by a large army Of rats in the
Baker coal bank. 1t was his custom
to cook his meal in the coal bank at
dinner time. One day as he was sit
ting before fire boiling his meat he
was startled to hear the noise made
by running rats. The odor of the
cooking meat permea ted the bank,
attracted the attention of the rodents
and they came tripping along to the
fire at lively rate.
John says he thought the "old
bob was after him. In a little
while there must have been fully 500
rats gathered about him, and his
heart was in his mouth. He threw
them piece of the meat, and while
