Laying aside the more or less probable yarns about his get ting molasses from a jug with his tail and other stories. here are some facts Modern builders and househoiders have fought the rat and tried to de- priye him of food and shelter in the land where he was born and where he may consider that he has some rights to life. liberty, and the pursuit of hap piness.
 They have put Instructions In the way Of the rat that might have dis couraged our feeble native black fel low. who was driven to the wilderness years ago by the formidable brown Norway" rat, which is now a resident in every land where ships go. He is the Attest, and be fit all other rats out of business. He is sagaeious and can reason; q living example Of physical courage and brain power. He knows no instructive routine life, such as a bee leads and rats rise superior to their environment at any time when the environment proves to be a misht, says a writer in Forest and Stream.
 The brown rat, like the old sailor has adapted himself to steel ships and is at home in them, but it is in the cities that he gets in his fine work on gas fittings, lead pipe. cement floors, and brick drains He ehews cement floors in the weakest places and taps lead pipe for water Sewer rats" have achieved a reputation on parallel lines with sanitary plumbing, and un- der the New York end of the Brook lyn bridge rats are earning frigid living in the cold storage warehouses and sharpening their teeth on frozen fish and game where a mans breath will turn to snow on a summers day.

MISTAKEN TIPPING.
Americans Abroad Frequently Pay Too
 Much for Services.

Much for Services.
 An American recently arrived in London from a southern city, and be- ing in haste to continue his journey to Paris, hired a eabman to take him on one of his errands. Handing the man two shilling piece. he directed him to certain number in New Bond street. After seating himself in the cab, the passenger waited for several minutes, expecting the horse to start. At last he left the cab and found the driver on the box inspectin. the coin, which was double the usual fare. What is the matter?'' asked the in- dignant traveller. This seems to be a very small coin for so long a distance" was the sur1y response. The AmeriT can smiled grimly and remarked that the cabman could drive him at once to Scotland Yard As this is the head quarters of the police the driver per ceived that the American was not man to be sWindled. "Ill drive you to New Bond street. he remarked promptly, If you will get in, sir " Wait moment, said the American. T want you to look me over carefully. Now tell me, he continued, what it was in my appearance that led you to think me an idiot. Was it my hat or my collar, or the cut of my overcoat? l have already paid you double fare for the distance I have asked you to go, but I'll give you as much more if you will tell me What there is in ny gem eral makeup that encouraged you to believe that I could be fool enough to allow you to cheat me" The cabman by this time looked sheepish and un- comfortable. T took you for an Am erican. sir. he said. and thought 1 could work another shilling out of you Here is one Of the shillings you gave me and am ready to driyl you 10 New Bond street. The American had made two mistakes. He ought not to have paid double fare, and he ought not fo have paid in advance. By violating fhe ordinary rules observed by people who hire London cabs, he encouraged the eabman t9 swindle him. The most 5RdieioQs course for a traEeler in foreign country is to learn the customs of the people in it. and not throw away money by oYerpaying cabmen and tip ping servants too generously Youths
