A Novel Kut-Trap.

The Scientific American describes an
invention which 1t calls "a humane
rat trap" The inventor asserts that
not only are ordinary traps cruel, but
they tend to defeat their own purpose,
because they teach rats and mice to be
wary. The new device Is a wide-open
tran. which is 80 arranged that a rat
entering 1t is clasped around the body
with a rubber band. which carries bells
and is covered with tufts coated with
phosphorescent paint. The trap does
not imprison the rat, but simply turns
II into a scarecrow. This. the inventor
thinks, would be the most effectuai
method OF Kidding a house Of such
pests.
