UNIVERSITY CHAMBER CONCERT.
Second in the Series to be Given or
 Wednesday Evening.

Second in the Series to be Given on
 Wednesday Evening.
 The second of this seasons series of university chamber concerts will be given by the celebrated Kneisel Quar- tette next Wednesday evening in Lamp son lyceum.
 The members of this quartette are Franz Kneisel, first violin; J. won The odorowicz, second violin; Louis Svecen- ski, viola, and Alvin Schroeder, violon- cello. Up to three or four years ago they were playing with the Boston Symphony orchestra in addition to at- tending to their quartette work, but were obliged to withdraw in order to devote their whole time to ensemble playing. The only outside duties which they perform at present are a limited amount of teaching at the American Institute in New York
 During the fifteen years of the exist ence of the Kneisel Quartette the or ganization has steadily gained in repu- tation, until now il, is everywhere ac- knowledged to be the greatest of all. It is safe to say that MT. Kneisel has been more directly influential in developing the higher musical taste of the Ameri- can public than any other man, with the possible exception of the late The odore Thomas. In spite of the fact that his programmes never include music of a cheap or vulgar type, he has been able, by sympathetic presentation, to reach the hearts of great part of the concert-going public.
 He has revealed the wealth of beau tiful chamber music which flowed so freelE from the pens of the old masters, and has made even the most untutored of his listeners appreciative of the dig nifty of this kind of musical art
 Tickets for Wednesdays concert and for the remaining three concerts of the course are now on sale at Steinert's music store and the bursars office in Lampson hall

musical motif in France and Italy of the seventeenth century and in a de- based form it is still performed occa- sionally on the Spanish stage. The be- ginning of the eighteenth century saw the final extinction of the Zarabanda and Chacona or Passacalle, their places being taken by the pallets and Danzas Habladas, many of which were written by poets such ns Quevedo, Lope de Vega, Calderon and Mendoza. But this period which marked a tranposi- tion was not long in endurance, for we now witness the triumph of the Bales over the Danzas in the rage for the Bolero, the Fandango and the Seguidil lc.
 Theophile Gautier was more epigra- matic than exact in asserting that Spanish dancing exists only in Paris. the Danzas are indeed zine, but the traveller who will not see on every hand in Spain evidences of the national de- votion to the Bales must be singularly blind

a frstrate place at which to trap rats, for they must resort to 1t in dry weather; and the traps should be set beneath the water at the spots where they drink. An excellent method is to arrange stones with their surfaces protruding just above the water like a causeWay along it's margin. Each ought to be comfortable rat jump apart, and at intervals the pan of a stone Rats leap from one to the other and fall victims to the traps In a time of drought the old buck rats eat the young one, and this helps to explain their tardy increase during dry season.
 Rats are generally prolific after a season which has been productive of acorns and nuts, for these provide them with abundant winter feed. The year 1904 was a wonderful acorn sea- son, with the result that rats Hooked to the oak woods, and stoats followed them up; keepers fell into the error of trapping the latter, and the consequ- ence was that a large number of rats survived to breed.
 It is to be feared that rats are aften attracted to the preserves by wasteful feeding, more food being thrown down. for pheasants than the birds can at once consume, The writer has seen the keepers whistle, as he appeared with feed basket, bring as many rats as pheasants on to q ride, the rodents and the birds feeding together, ap- parently on the best of terms.
 If rats are permitted to remain in the preserves there is litle chance of winged game, especially cartridges, increasing, for those eggs they are not able to consume are stolen from the nests. Rats have been seen to take them one by one from beneath sitting birds. Upon one estate, after search instituted upon the discovery of sev- eral nest emptied of their contents, a keeper had the good fortune to find about fifty partridge eggs heaped up by rat beneath thickeA of briars. Only one or two had perforations from. the thief's teeth, and all but these matched when distributed in various nests.

KIDDING A PLACE OF RATS.

Regarding Their Habits-Traps That
 Take Advantage of Their Thirst.
 Rats are migratory in their habit, for an estate almost free from them one week is. found to be swarming the next, and it is plain that occasion ally hordes of them must travel long distances, accommodating as they pro- gress. Whether they send on a pioneer party is not known, but it has been noticed says a writer in the London Field, that the appearance of a few rats at a certain spot generally augurs the speedy coming of many more.
 An estate which is intercepted by a stream or river is peculiarly liable to an incursion of rats, and this lends strength to the belief that they make their way along the banks of running water, finding convenient refuges while on the journey in the holes of water rats by which these banks are honeycombed For this reason traps to intercept some of the invaders should always be kept set alongside streams.
 Rats in big stacks during the cold season are difficult to destroy, for a ferret can do little with them, and is rarely able to make them bolt; in such cosy refugees they also commence breeding early, and this soon tends to a big increase. If a ferret is to be spared, it is a good plan to turn 1t in to a rat infested rick and allow it to remain there; those it does not kill will be forced to desert. Even better than ferret is live stoat, if one can be captured unharmed in a box trap and afterwards given it's liberty in the rick. Should this be done it will remain as long as there is a rat to be had,
 A very good plan of clearing rats from an infested rick has been prac- tised with the greatest success. Rats are exceedingly thirsty creatures, and this fact was taken advantage of by the inventor. With sheets of zinc sev- eral feet high he formed rat proof fence round at such a distance that rats could not jump from the rick over it. The sheets were plain, not corrugated, and sunk several inches in the ground to prevent burrowing out Directly dry spell of weather set in tub was buried in the ground and partially filled with water, bricks be- ing piled in it's centre till one stooG just above the surface. The rats, thirsting for water, absolutely fought for footing on this brick, and drown ed each other wholesale, some being actually slain in combat.

 A PERFECT SUCCESS

For a year l have had what they call eczema. I had an itching all over my body, and when l would retire for the night it would keep me awake half the night, and the more I would scratch, the more it would itch. 1 tried all kinds of rem edies, but could get no relief. A friend of mine told me to try the Cuticura Remedies which I did, and am very glad tried them, for 1 was completely cured. If any of my friends should be troubled with the same disease, l will cheerfully recommend the Cuticura Remedies, and if know any one who wants to know how I cured myself, I shall be glad to tell them.
