Rats With Ice Cream Finish .

The latest form of amusement among
the Sunday School girls of Axtell is
rat killing" parties, says the Kansas
City Journal. The first one was pull
ed off at the home OF Allen Farmer a
few nights ago and was attended by
the Presbyterian Sunday School, con-
.siSting mostly of girls. The Anchor
tells Of the bravery displayed by the
young ladies. The girls reached there
shortly after shutdown, and armed with
sticks n clubs. proceeded K the old
stable, where rats were in abundance.
For some time silence prevailed, broken
at intervals by a false alarm, when
one would see a furry of clubs. Final
ly a rat was stirred out a monstrous
big fellow. Every club struck the
ground, and in some way amid the
shriekS and blows the rat succumbed.
We think It was scared to death, for
surely never was he attacked by such
"a band before. Again and again this
act was repeated: each time the girls
grew Drawer. The climax was reached
when at once a dogon big fellow Jump
ed out at once and made right for the
crowd of girls. Dc you hin they
screamed and fled? Not one bit of lt.
Wonde American soldiers know
not What it is to be defeated IN battle
If their mothers are made of the same
mettle those girls are made Of. They
fought, and never thought of flight. The
stateliest rat making for the prettiest
girl ELECTED nothing more than a heavy
blow that laid him low. After the
rats were killed the party proceeded to
the lawn, where ice cream and cake
were served.

FORTY DAYS RAIN.
Continuous Moisture Since July II.
End Next Sunday-Damase to
Crops.

1t will not take niue. stretch of the
imagination to guess how it was with
Noah when the first rainy season vas
Instituted. 1t is, however, not the pur-
pose of The Journal to alarm it's read
ers with the thought hat we are 60
ing to be drowned out because we are
having 40 days rain. We will be all
right if We can swim and that ac-
cOmplishment seems to be almost u
necessity now.
There have beer very few days
since July IA in which some rain eth
er in large or small quantities has not
fallen. The average daily rainfall ha.
been II half inch but on some days
considerably more thar an inch has
fallen.
This record is for the 40 days when
we are now having and which will enc
next Sunday. Aug. %. The season will
long be known as one of the most rainy
summers on record in this section.
The greatest damage caused by tn
rain will be to cotton. Farmers fear.
that they will suffer a shortage OF
fully half their crop on account of the
weather. The corn will also be dar.-
aged but not to such an extent as
cotton.
The enc of the 40 days of continu.
Gus moisture m next Sunday ana
nobody will be sorry to see its finish.
There should be in order to even things
up a long pleasant autpmn.-New

Why One Bet Was Lost.

Two gloomy looking individuals
stood in the paddock Enclosure and
gaZed out upon the track, says The
Chicago Chronicle. Their collars We're
Wilted and p~erspiration trickled down
their cheeks in rivulets. The crowd
in the grand stand and club houses
were shouting the name Of the victO-
rious horse in the Hustieun stake race.
You told me to bet all 1 had on Gin
gerbread," mused one of the gloomy
looking individuals, and now the own
er mas sent out a stable boy to find the
beast"
We'll, 1 had a straight hunch," ex-
planned the other, and I insist that
the nag was the best horse in the race
by long odds, even if he didn't win"
All that happened to him was that
he was left at the post. Afraid to start
with the company he was in" came the
r%ejoinder.
Afraid nothing" said the tipster
holly. Gingerbread is blooded and he
was ashamed to start with that bunch.
Ashamed not afraid"

growth of hair; but you never can ex-
pect a fashion TO last long enough to
have any such effect.
