And, the Exercise these Bowel Muscles

A p.nqerous Pest.

II sometimes happens In human life
that a man who has lived for years In
peaceable II not amicable relations
With his neighbors is suddenly re-
yealed as a great criminal. whose pres
ence has been a constant menace to all
about him. and whose sins include
tragedies which had long been mys-
teries. Some such revelation as this
has been made about the common do
mestic rat, not suddenly, perhaps, but
with a slow and certain piling up OF
evidence, until now the biological sur
vey OF the United States government
has indicted the sly gray criminal in
special pamphlet The first foreign
rat to reach these shores was the Eu-
ropean black rat, which came over
nearly 900 years ago. The common
rat OF to-day is the brown or Norway
rat. He reached America about 1775.
and has multiplied SO rapidly that he
has almost entirely driven out his
black predecessor. There is also a
third species. known as the roof. or
Alexandrian rat OF Egypt. This rat is
Ia good sailor, and so is found mostly
in seacoast cities. The brown rat is
pronounced to be the worst NAM
1nalian pest in existence. No statis-
tics are available for America, but in
Denmark this rat is estimated to
work 100000 worth of destruction
every year; and In the United States
one rat to every horse, cow, sheep and
hog-a conservative estimate-wouId
do 500, 600. 900 worth of damage in a
year. Rats destroy eggs and young
poultry. pigeons. game birds and song
birds. In cities they enter stores and
warehouses, and destroy laces, car.
pets, silks and woolens. They gnaw
through lead pipe, and so flood build
ings with water. They eat away the
Insulation of electric wires, and thus
cause fires. They are prolific sources
of the spread of contagious diseases.

represented at the end of that time by
more than 20,000,000 individuals. The

sued especially for farmers and others
whose premises are infested with

poisoning them-the rats-describes
the most effective traps, and gives
other information which makes it an

Medieval Leisure.

The women of the sixteenth century
and earlier times had easier lives
than those of our generation. To be
sure, there are a hundred labor-saving
devices to-day which were unknown to
them. But In at least two important
respects they had the advantage over
their descendants. They waged no
conflict against dirt, such as we carry
on from morning till night. The
Elizabethan had no prejudice against
garbage in his front yard, vermin in
his bedroom, decaying rushes on the
floor of his banquet hall, or soiled
lace on his sleeves. The strength of
arm and spirit which now goes to
keeping clean was left to the medieval
lady for other tasks. Moreover, al
though her clothing was gorgeous
rich with embroidery and lace and
heavy with jewels-it was not subject
to rapid changes of fashion. The cut
of a sleeve or the hang of skirt was
settled for five years rather than for
five months. Life was free then from
the modern terror OF looking like a
last years ragbag." If cleanliness and
fashion should suddenly go out of
business, says Youths Companion,
what an air of leisure would spread
over the world feminine. until some
other tyrants should arise to take the
place Of those dethroned!

would be better to co operate With
