Used ny Druggist In Boston,
For something new in the way of II
ny trap look In the window of the drug
store at the corner Of fremont and
Eliot streets, says the Boston Trans-
cript. There. at almost any hour Of the
day and night from one to four ro-
dent quadrupeds can be seen prancing
over bottles and tooth powder and syrup
Of squills and tincture Of turpcntinc
End sweet spirits Of rhubarb and other
useful articles usually displayed in
such places in wild attempt 10 capture
the musca dOmestica. The mice are
simply out fy-fshing. A card has been
placed In the window In self-defcnse,
which reads: Fly Trap. Not for Sale"
This was done after the doorstep had
been worn half way through by a line
OF people coming In to inform the
clerks that the window was full Of
nice. The mice have been In the win
dow for three years. says one Of the
clerks who has seen that length Of SER
vice for the druggist and he doesn't
know how much longer. In the winter
they live by gnawing of the labels In
the store that are glued on with starchy
paste. The mice by this time have be-
come quite tame. but they never leave
the window except when the store Is
closed. They have proved themselves
to be real conveniences. When the
store gets unpleasantly full Of hies
the clerks drive them into the window,
and then the mice have luncheon. Pe0-
pie gather at these times Just as they
do at the circus when the animals are
fed. The best fun comes when the
mice make after horsefy; there is q
great race. and once caught the mice
tear the fly's wings OF and bolt ev-
erything else. In this way great pile
Of wings have accumulated.
The recreation of these mice consists
In running up and down the curtnin
cord at lightning pace. causing the resi-
dents of the neighboring saloons to rub
their eyes, and avoid that side Of thu
street altogether.
