dicted the repetition OF the famous ola
tale of the Pied Piper of Hamelin.
Several days later the rat king
appeared in Washington. He was al
most as short as he was broad and
wore clothes too loose for description;
they had no shape He carried large
oilcloth sack and a covered basket.
His penetrating blue eyes were almost
covered by shaggy eyebrows. and his
blond hair had not been cut. but hag-
gled. His manner was short and
brisk, and lie went straight to the
point. talking TO Professor Henry in
German
lie declared that not rat would be
ia the building three days hence IL his
directions were obeyed. During that
time he would stay in the basement
alone: every door was TO be locked,
and on no account was he to be dis
turbed until he gave them the signal.
So they left him in absolute darkness
and carried out his directions.
ON Sunday morning the queer old
man emerged from the darkness so
confident of his success that he re-
fused to accept the money which was
his due theu and there, but insisted
that Professor Henry mail the check
10. him in Philadelphia the following
| week.
Now you can leave your food in the
basement, and it won't be touched.
And | won't take cent IL you are
troubled with rats" were his parting
words.
Cheese and cake were directly placed
about the building TO tempt the rats.
Morning after morning they were
found as they had been left, and from
that day to this the Smithsonian insti-
tuition has never been seriously trou-
bled with rats And no one has ever
found out the secret Of The 'rat kings
method. Youths Companion.

THE RAT KING.
His Method Was Successful, but II
Remains a Secret.

Remains a Secret.
In tue early sixties of the last cen
Jury the Smithsonian institution was
infcsted with rats. Nothing in the
building seemed to be rat proof. They
ate skins cured with arsenical soap or
table linen or the contents of Professor
Henry's pantry without discrimination.
Every one in the city, from Professor
Henry TO the bootblack. had one sub
ject in common, and that was rats.
AS Professor Henry, who lived In
the east end of the building, was lis
tening 10 an account of the ruin
wrought in his home during that day
Professor Spencer Baird walked in
and said, just as If he had been fol
lowing every word of the family con
versatlop, Il have just been told that
there is n man in Philadelphia who
can rid this place OF rats
Professor Henry's eyes expressed
interest aud incredullty at the same
moment,

himself the 'ratten kong aud won't

well send for him if 1t takes our
last thousand cents TO do IT," said

She Liked silk Hosiery.

Susan B. Anthony was woman OF
simple taste in dress, but her close
friends knew Of one pretty feminine
vanity that she always held to. Sh,
had a weakness for silk stockings Be
ing pressed on one occasion for an ex,
planatlcn Of what most women at ont
time regarded as an unnecessary ex
trayagance, she laugblngly exclaimed
"Oh. just love 'em! They are an in

The New Way of
Fixing the Hair
IT LOOKS EASY, BUT Is NOT,

THE frivolous minded woman (and
which one of us is not frivolous at
this time of the year, with the new
IA shions before us?) Is much worried
by the new way of dressing the hair
And, indeed, though II looks easy. In
reality II is not 50 at all
Fashion has decreed that the pomrn
dour must go. II Is utterly out cf style.
and this fact alone depresses the aver
age woman, who has probably been
wearing transformation in order to
eke out her rapidly thinning locks.
But in reality she ought to DO glad
of this. Nothing more ruiuous TO
the hair than this same tralsfCrma-
ton was ever invented. The band
alone pressing on the scalp stopped
circulation, while the matted hair eff
fectually prevented the air from reach
ing the roots
Another year Of the pompedour and
plenty of women would have grown
bald
But now II is gone Instead we have
a curly fringe over the forehead and
the rest OF the hair piled smoothly
over the head In n hood effect. How
is this done?
BY means OF thirty inch switch in
most cases.
The hair. being well brushed, is d.
vided and one half brushed over 10
the right, the other half beins brushed
over to the loft. The ends are tucked
in by means OF hairpins. This cross
ing effect covers the scalp thoroughly
The stem of the switch is then insert
ed in the back and the whole wound
smoothly around the head. being held
in place by round shell pins at fixed
intervals.
This is one way. The other con-
slsts in brushing the hair smoothly
back and fastening it at the r&pe OF
the neck. as IL for braiding. The stem
Of the switch is then inserted us IN the
other way. only the hair Is divided
and crossed. the two parts being esair
crossed in front and tucked in over the
ears.
Still another way is TO use "a corcnet
braid. which has q single seam In the
back, the seam being concealed by
barrette.
A great many jet pins are being
used. particularly by those who have
white or blond hair. They are very
stunning.

Sheer hanaInas.

Point d'alencon lace is returning to
favor for sheer hangings in boudoirs.
1t is very light and delicate and in
good patterns and quality 1t is very
charming indeed. The dificulty with
lace curtains of every sort seems to be
that they appeal so directly to the
vulgar sense Of the luxurious that
they are very sure to be copied in
exceedingly coarse material. This
makes even the finer qualities very
and so the fine muslin
curtains which seem not to appeal at
al to coarser taste have an advantage
over those of lace.

The mattress for a child's bed

bed with blankets. Let the cover be
light and warm. Also remove the
counterpart, or heavy. Marseilles COW

sleep on feather bed. Children should
sleep alone. Each, child should have
his own bureau and closet, or at least
space in the closet, so that method

the first Care should be taken that
the child use his own hairbrush and
