Easily Taught.

Although rats are regarded with uni
versal disfavor, it has been proved that
they have many good qualities. During
her long imprisonment, Louise Michel
taught her three cats to live amicably
with troops of rats that visited her at
regular hours twice day. The cats
began by attacking the rats, killing one
and breaking the leg of another. Mad
anne Michel tended the injured rat and
thus won the confidence of it's fellows.
One of their virtues was respect for the
aged, another was family feeling, an
other compassion for unfortunate
brethren. The governor of the prison
used to send the broken bread from his
table for the prisoners four-footed Wis
itors, and often came himself to witness
the visits. She declared that there was
no four-footed creature more suscepti-
BILE of education than the despised rat
The Russian Duroff took up few years
ago the Louise Michel idea Of bringing
out the human qualities of the rat, and
is now making money with a company
of tanned rats. They, sailor-like, climb
the ropes of mimic ship and behave in
most ways like the Industrious rats
which were one Of the shows of Lon
don in the reign of William w. Duroff
had much less trouble teaching rats
than dogs. He discovered in them a
retentiye ear,for language, and great
er adaptability than he had found in
any other species.

The Debts of Society

Once in while the gay glamour rolls
away, and the commercial value of So
cial attentions come dtstressingly to
the front. AT least SO it seemed to a
thoughtful dame who sat with two So
ciety women making out list of inyi-
tations for a joint luncheon Their bah
BILE ran about as follows-queer things,
you know, sound so much queerer
when other people say them.
Shall you ask Mrs. Dash?''
"Oh, goodness, yes! I owe her two
luncheons. Do let me get out of her
debt"
'How about Mrs. Cash."
''Well, unless you want her. don t
care to ask her. l have invited her
twice since she asked me-
''Well, here's Mrs. Rash. I'll have
to ask her; though l remember you
were not invited to her latest party"
"Who else? Oh, Mrs. Banks! She
seldom entertains at all, but everybody
runs after her, and suppose we shall
have to-"
Mrs. Rank? How about her?
cannot remember whether l owe her
any thing or not. Wen put her down,
anyway; she is always giving some
thing NICE"
And in the thoughtful listeners mind
arose vague curiosity as to what
would have been said Of her social
claims had she not been present.

PIayin' POssnn.

Playin' possum" comes from the
Iact that the possum will feign sleep OF
death when pushed into sudden danger
OF being captured. But pains and aches
never play that kind of game. They
never try to fool anybody, and go to
work to wake up people, leaving no
chance to feign sleep. On the other
hand, there is remedy known as st.
Jacobs OH that will lull pain or an
acne so that it won't wake up again in
the cure that follows it's use. Pains
and aches are great or less in intensity
just in degree as we treat them. Prompt
treatment with the best remedy-St.
Jacobs Oil-preyents their increase and
by curing prevents their return. Every
thing is gained by taking pains and
aches in time for prompt and perma-
nent cure, and there is nothing better
than the use Of st. Jacobs Oil.

but, thank God, an angel hand came at

sent. l am now saved and completely
