Some knowledge Profound.

Nobody knows how noble it is to
know. But if you do not know, and
nobody knows that you do not know,
and you know that nobody knows that
you don't know, it is very pleasant 20
know that they don't know that you
don't know that they don't know that
you don't know. No man knows how
much he really knows uatil he knows
how much other people know that he
doesn't know. To know thyself' is
really all there Is worth knowing, and
since no man really knows himself and
there Is no other knowledge worth
knowing and we do not know the only
thing worth knowing we really know
nothing. But to know that we know
nothing Is knowledge greater than the
knowledge that some people think they
have when they really know nothing
and think they know something.
Therefore 1t is greater to know moth
Ing and know it than to think we know
something when we know nothing. So
II you know nothing and you think you
do, and I know nothiEg and don't think
1 do, l know more than you. It Is
therefore well that we know that we
don't knOw.-Exchange.

The Ferret and the Rat.

A correspondent of a London paper,
commenting on the crusade against
rats in Great Britain, says: THE real
remedy against rats is the ferret Lot
the unhealthy ferret kept by the half
starved rat catcher of the agricultural
village, but the strong, healthy ferret
bred on the ground floor of well ven
tilated, commodious dog kennel and
there kept on skimmilk, table refuse
and small birds. Bedded with clean
wheat straw, the ferret Is one of the
sweetest of animals, and the expert
goes into the kennels and cheers them
as though In a kennel of hounds, and
they crawl about him harmlessly. The
young bucks will run miles across the
country with the expert, just like lit
tie terriers. With this healthy life
they grow too big for hunting rats In
barns or other buildings, but they can
settle any rat in wheat stack If put
in before the rat has made a labyrinth
inside the stack The doe ferrets will
rout the buildings, and they alone
should be the chief instrument in the
crusade. The rat Is too cunning for
guns, traps and other devices"
