A mouse has long been known to be

just why the average run Of femininity
fshould fear such a helpless, harmless
little creature cannot be explained.
During the civil war famous female
Espy was betrayed through the instru-

admirably in deceiving the enemy un-

kparty of men at farmhouse black
mouse jumped from a cupboard to the
table, almost in the face Of the sup
posed boy. With shriu feminine
tshriek the spy threw up her arms and
rushed across the room, and, springing

ssheer fright. The men, Of course, sus-
tpected her and, rather than be searched.
Eshe confessed, but by the aid of the 10y

escape in the night.
A we'll known woman physician of
Chicago says she can do any kind Of
surgical work without tremor, but
| the sight Of mouse turns her strange

Another woman has such terror of
mice that she recently went insane
| through fright at one of the wee crea-
lures. The woman was sweeping her
cellar when mouse darted out from
an old barrel and ran about her feet.
She tried to step on it and beat at it
with her broom, calling piteously to
her little boy to help her. But the boy,
thinking she was in fun, frightened
the terrified mouse toward the woman
whenever it tried to get away. At
length the COY rushed at it in earnest
/ and the mouse darted under the wom-
ans skirts and she fell to the floor in
sensible, only to lose her mind when at
length consciousness returned to her.
