WOOD RAT TYPlFIEs MAN.
In His E%aserness to Increase Size Of
His "PiIe."

Too many Americans have the
wood rat instinct" says the Mon
treal Star. The wood rat, the animal,
is a native Of southern Oregon, but
the wood rat typifed in man is not
restricted to any small section Of a
state or nation, but is wellnigh uni
versal.
The wood rat is small, nc larger
than a common rat, but his ambition
and acquisitiveness are Unsuitable.
His one insane desire seems to be to
increase the size Of his pile Of sticks
The neighboring field is placed under
tribute. First all the nearby sticks
are gathered into the pile. Then, as
these are cleaned up, he goes further
and further away from home, and
every twig is eagerly seized upon tc
increase the size of his pile Of sticks
The wood rat regards his pile o.
sticks as a refuge in time of trouble
On the first sound Of alarm he rushes
to the pile and crawls underneath. II
is here that he often finds his de
struction, for a summer fire some
| times sweeps through the woods, ant
the wood rats pile Of sticks make
| yeritable furnace. The larger the pix
the hotter the fire, and thus he ha'
piled up the means Of his Cwn agony

ed In a Meal.

These birds are about the size and
color of the catbird, but have longer
tails. l never saw wild birds so saucy
as these, says a writer in Forest and
Stream. No sooner vas our camp
pitched than these birds began to
congregate in the treetops and plan
mischief. The moment anything was
exposed that they thought was eatable
they would grab 1t and be of in a
twinkle. They would eat, or try to
eat, anything from meat, sugar or pan.
cakes to a bar of soap. We used tar
soap, and for the purpose 1t was orig
inally intended 1t was a great success,
but as an article Of diet 1 should not
consider the favor quite up to other
dainties. Nevertheless, we kept miss
ing our soap. One would then ask the
other:
Have you really reformed and gone
to using soap?"
Not guilty" would be the In
swer.
Then, after a speech, we would find
the soap some distance down the
slope, all pecked and clawed by the
whisky Jacks" Possibly they did 1t
to take the taste Of my cookery out OF

Little. but of Great Use.

"Who, l wonder, invented that little
tab which now forms a part of the
pasteboard stopper of milk and cream
bottles?" said a housekeeper the other
day. THE top shows no patent stamp,
SO far as I've been able to discover,
yet it's of more practical value than
nine-tenths of the larger household
patents upon which thousands of doh
lars are annually expended.
How many forks, hairpins, hatpins,
icepicks and screw drivers one ruined
in a month before this tab was dis
covered! How much matutinal pa
thence was shattered by the trick OF
the little slabs of pasteboard devei-
oped of submerging themselves IN tne
bottles! Then some one bethinks him
self or herself Of cutting out a stopper
with a tab to 1t. You pull the TAP
and the stopper lifts out as good as
pie. The inventor, whoever ne may
be, is a public benefactor.'
