Among the household goods of Super
intendent !. l.. Thielsen, that recently ar-
rived here from Oregon, was a handsome
bunting flag OF large size. Strange to
say this flag, a u nited States flag by the
way, was the only article In the whole
outfit damaged In any way by the transit
across the continent. A good sized rat
with propensity for travel In some way
got secreted among the goods and as time
went on and provisions got scarce the
wool In the bunting appealed to his rat
ships idea OF food. Consequently he
made quite an inroad on several stars and
two or three stripes before death over
took him. The holes in the banner made
by the rats sharp teeth can perhaps be re-
paired. but the flag will never be rs good
as new.
A number OF North Scituate people are
looking for the return OF q short, thick
SET man who canvassed the village about
a month ago, In the interest, he claimed
of the Commercial Portrait Co.. I,oS
Washington street, Boston. The agent
represented that he was employed by a
srm that enlarged photographs by new
process and the enlarging business was
dsne without money and without price,
the firm osly caring to sell suitable
aNmes tor the enlarged picture. A small
amount down was considered only tair
AID reasonable as the firm was 40 philan-
tsropic In the matter OF enlsrging the
pictures. The short, thick set man took
qsite number of orders and consequent
ly quite little money WAS paid down.
The goods were to be delivered In about
a week, but month has rolled by and
the agent has not put In an appearance.
OF course he may come back, but the
customers are naturally beginning to feel
a trine anxious.
