COSTUME THAT CAUSED STIR.


csreIessness and coIor-sIindness
Equally TO Blame.
There are still many who viii re-
member the late Theodore D. Weld
as one of the old-time, active aboli-
tionists. He was afflicted with color
blindness, and often related the fol
lowing incident as one of the unpleas-
ant happenings connected Herewith.
Among other preparations for an ex-
tended lecture tour he had ordered
two pairs of trousers of his tailor,
n pair blue and the other green. 1t
was a rush order, and the garments
were finished off after dark and sent
to his residence the same night.
His first lecture was delivered at
an afternoon meeting, for which he
donned a pair of the new trousers,
When he made his appearance on the
platform ar amused smile appeared
on nearly every face in the audience
and a murmur of suppressed laughter
was plainly audible.
He looked, so far as he could, to see
if there was anything wrong with hi:
pei sonal appearance, and, being salts
fed that all vas well, proceeded calm
ly with his address. But he was en-
lightened before the evening meeting
his hostess kindly telling him tina
one leg of his trousers was blue anc
the other green.
He Immediately brought the Other
pair for her inspection, and they were
found to be the same. In rushing the
garments together by lamplight the
parts had got mixed.-Boston Herald

CHOICE ROSES BAIT roa RATS.

Fragrance of the Flower Lures AMI
mails to Their Doom.
The use of choice roses as rat bait
is to be experimental upon by the
biological bureau of the department
of agriculture. The bureau has been
informed of a number OF cases where
rodents hat spurned tempting cheese
and crackers, were easily enticed by
a rose, and it is believed that the re-
suit of the experiments proposed by
the bureau will be to show conclusive
ly that these flowers surpass cheese,
crackers, rinds of bacon and other
bats that are commonly used 10 en-
t1ce the rats into traps.
The use of choice flowers as bait
for rats will, no doubt, be looked
upon as unworthy and degrading by
ested in plant industry, but when the
great value and Importance of roses
used in this manner is demonstrated
it is believed they will take another
view of the case.
1t is explained that it is not SO
much the taste of roses that attracts
the rat as it is their fragrance, and
for this reason roses are expected tc
be the popular bait for the future.
Cases have been known where 70
dents, attracted by the sweet perfume
of a rose in a house, have gnawed
through doors to get at the flower
Rats have been known to become sus
picious of traps with the familiar bait
of cheese and bacon rinds and easily
evade a trap for a long time. From
experience it has been found that
white roses, such as the dainty bride
rose or the snowy Nephitos, have
proved preferable in rat-catching.

CLEARED PATHWAY FOR GIRLS.
vermonter Quick to Realize Humor Of
Situation.


John Davis, a tall, lean vermonter,
had a market at Burlington thirty
years ago. He was a genial fellow,
and not in the least to blame for hav-
ing an extremely long nose attached
to his thin face. He was very much
accustomed to having strangers look
at him wonderingly and smilingly on
account of his nose.
One summer morning as he was ar
ranging goods outside of his market
door a pair of Boston girls CHANGED
to be walking that way, and as they
noticed this human wonder they
paused to crafty their curiosity, with
smiling faces.
Davis quietly took in the situation.
