The Thuce-a-W Week World was brilliant
success in the beginning and has been
steadily growing ever since. Time is the

proval on the Thrice-a-Week World, which
is widely circulated in every State and Ter
ritory of the Union, and wherever there are
people who can read our mother tongue.
This paper for the year 1908, will make
its news service, if possible, more extern

no matter where they happen, are reported
accurately and promptly.
The subscriber, for only one dollar a wear
gets three papers every week and more
news and general reading than most great

The Thrice-a- Week World is absolutely
fair in its political news. Partisan bias IS
never allowed to affect its news columns.
and Democrat and Republican alike can
obtain In its pages truthful accounts of all
the great political campaigns.
In addition to all the news, the Thrice-a-
Week World furnishes the best serial fiction.
elaborate market reports and other features

Bluffkins wandered in at the club

close to the fire.

Rat Cunning.

The rat has often demonstrated his
intelligence. Perhaps the best known
instance is that of the rats which, rob-
bling a poultry yard. could conceive of
no better way of carrying off the eggs
than by getting one of their number
to lie on his back and clasp the eggs
on his stomach. Then several rats
pulled their recumbent brothers tail.
while others pushed his shoulders.
Thus egg after egg was safely hidden
In their burrow.
A rat has been known to cross q
swollen torrent in Scotland seated Oh
a swans back. Other rats have made
friends with dogs and fed from the
same platter. When the dogs were
absent they would never feed, know
ing that the presence of their canine
friends meant safety.
Although when driven desperate
with hunger they will devour one an
other. in times of plenty their affec-
tion is almost human.
A Sussex clergyman has told how he
saw number of rats migrating from
one district to another, and in the mid
die of the company was an old blind
rat with twig In his mouth, by which
ne was being safely led by a youn yer
rodent.
Instances Of rats leading blind com
rades by the ears to feeding places and
placing food close to their muzzles
have been observed more than once.
This is more than many human beings
will do for their weaker BRETHREN

Every reporter at the tables above
