Franks of Florida WOOd-Rgts

The latest narrative Of the queer do
ing of the Florida Wood-rat, the best
known Of them ALL comes from Mrs. c..
+. Latham, of Mexico, Florida. Preyi-
GUS to the destruction by fire of the old
Oak Lodge, year before last, it was
often visited by a pair of very sociable
and quite harmless Wood-rats, who
nested in a palmetto hut near by, and
made it their home until some cats
came into the family The Wood-rats
were big-eyed, handsome creatures
without the vicious look Of common
rat, with fine, yellowish- fur, white
feet, and white under parts. Inasmuch
as they never destroyed anything save
q pair of Mrs. Latham's shoes strings,
which they had cut in order to get them
out Of the eyelet-holes, they were toll
Grated about the premises, and here are
some Of the queer things they did:
They carried some watermelon seeds
from the lower floor, and hid them up
stairs under Mr.. Bakers pillow. In
the kitchen they found some cucumber
seeds, and of these they took a table
spoonful and deposited them in the
pocket of Mr.. Bakers vest, which
hung upstairs on a nail. In one night
they took eighty-five pieces of wood
from a box of beehive fixtures, and
laid them in a corn-boX. The following
night they took about two quarts of
corn and oats, and put it into the box
from which the beehive fixtures came.
Once Mrs. Latham missed handful of
pecans, and they were SO thoroughly
hidden that she never found them.
About a year later the rats realized that
Mrs. Latham had "given it up" and 10!
the pecans suddenly appeared one day
upon her bed!-St. Nicholas.
