usual sort of proceeding that he stop
ped his work to watch them. Two Of
tie rats held the straw ut opposite
ends while the third supported the
center. They were making straight for
the river which flowed by one side Of
the yard. When they arrived at the
bank, they laid down the straw and
took a long drink. Then they proceed
ed to take up the straw again in the
same manner as before and returned
by the same way they had come.
"This so interested the workman
that he determined to watch if they
would come again. And sure enough,
at about the same time the next day.
they appeared, carrying the straw ex-
actly as before. Having provided him
self with Il gun, he shot all three to
see if possibly he might thereby solve
the mystery. He discovered that the
rat in the center was blind and there
fore concluded that this was the ami
mails kind method of leading their
afflicted comrade to the water to
