You see, my wife acted so foolish about it
that l cut out the peanut habit simply to
keep peace in the family. i frequently
used to buy a bag to take home IN the
evening, and generally ate few on the
way. Well, the other evening my wife,
who has most suspicious nature, sneered
at me when [ reached home. Been eat

Rama city Of Rats.

No place is sacred to therat. From a
sleeping man to an elephant there is
nothing which he will not eat. Rats
have eaten their way through a live pig
and bitten off the legs of live birds.
Some years ago the keepers Of the Lon
don geological gardens could not under
stand what made the elephants SO rest
less. so uneasy on their feet. Inyesti-
cation showed that at night the rats
came out and gnawed off the thick skin
growing about the nails on the monsters

regularly the keepers used to find fat
tened rats where the Thinoceros had been
