them to fight under pain Of her great

to say, she fulfilled her promise, as

The Way Ocean Liners Are Ria of
Rats and Ronches.

huts anu
Rat and roach catching at the steam
er docks and on ocean liners Is one of
the queer ways men have of making n
living. And good living they make
ut it, too-sometimes as much rs $10,-
600 year. The men who do it never
advertise, because the business does not
sound as well as it pays, and a man
whose house Is built out of dead rats
and cockroaches would just as soon not
have his neighbors know it,
Once year docks and piers are turn
ed over to the rat catcher for Il night.
The man who has made Il fortune at
the business in New York still works
with his men, for the secret Of the busi-
ness Is his and he trusts 1t to no one.
Rats run everywhere, but reaches have
Il special liking for rope lockers, and
here they swarm by tens of thousands
unless the pier owners have a contract
with the rat and roach catcher, who
after Il thorough overhaullng, guaran-
tees freedom from the pests for Il year.
Whenever an ocean liner reaches port,
whether Oh this side or the other, it IS
turned over for night to this same
man. Cats do much toward keeping
ships clear of rats but, of course, have
no effect on reaches. On this side of
the Atlantic roach catching is the more
important branch of the business, while
on the other side wharfs are almost
as full of rat catchers as the ships are
of rats.
These once worked with ferrets, but
now they use chemicals. Large cage
like traps are used, in which lettuce
leaves are placed after being sprlnkled
with liquid-only the catcher knows
what
Whatever it Is, 1t. is as irresistible to
rats as the weird piping of the pied
piper was to the rats of Hamelin town.
No matter how choice the food in the
lockers and in the hold, the rats leave
it instantly when they smell the mys-
teriOus liquid on the lettuce leaves. 1t
does not kill the rats, and herein lies
another secret of the profits of the busl-
ness. Live rats are worth money in
England, where they are used for train
ing terriers Dead rats are worth mon
ey, too as their skins are used for
gloves. At or cents apiece, forty or
fifty rats mean something, and this is
quite a usual catch.
For reaches a powder is used, but
what puzzles all old sailors who used
to have the job of clearing ships of
reaches is that there are never any
dead ones lying around next morning
The favorite way of the sailors when
they had to catch reaches was to put
4 ''cob" of bread on top of coil of
rope. Very quickly 1t would be covered
with hungry brown bugs, and these
they knocked into well creased bis
cult pan. The grease kept the reaches
from crawling up the sides, and it was
poor roach catcher who would not
have two or three inches of reaches
when he was through, and in a few
days he could begin and do it all over
again.-New York Herald.
