Cunning Rats.

The achievements of the rat would
be incredible if they were not estab-
lished on authority beyond dispute.
A rat has been seen, for example, to
mount a table and upset a box of figs
on to the floor for the benefit of twen-
ty waiting rats; and the stopper in a
flask of oil has been removed by rats
which then dipped their long tails
into the bottle until it was dry. Sugar
has been found in deep drawers thir-
ty feet from the place where the rats
had found it, and they have been
known to carry eggs from the bottom
of a house to the top without break
ing them, the egg resting upon the
hind legs of one rat and the forelegs
of another as they climber the stairs.
