Many post cards which come to
Connecticut cities each week go astray
because the home address of those for
whom the cards are intended is not
given. Cards which are addressed in
care of the factories, as a general
thing fail to reach their destination,
as most of the factories refuse to han
die mail which comes for the en-
ployes. As it is impossible to find
the names of most Of the women and
the boys under age in the directory
the postoffice authorities have no way
of delivering the mail.

Washington's High Priced Shad.

Washington's steward was a man
named Fraunces, who liked good liv-
ing and with whom Washington con-
tinually quarreled about the market
ing. One time he bought a shad in
February, and as Washington saw it
coming into the dining room he was
charmed and asked what fish it was.
'It is shad," replied the steward
ga very fine shad. 1t was the only
one in the market, and l bought it for
you"
But what did you pay for it?' said
Washington sternly.
'It is very fine shad." continued
the steward, land it is cooked to a
turn"
But I want to know the price-the
price"'
"It cost $3," stammered out Fraunces.
'Take it away" said Washington as
he raised his hand; take it away. 1t
shall never be said that l set such an
example of luxury and extravaganza"
And with that he drove. the steward
out Of the room. and the shad was
eaten in the servants kitchen.

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

|
In the early sixties of the last cen.
tury the Smithsonian institution waS
| infested with rats. Nothing in the
building seemed to be rat proof. They
ate skins cured with arseu!cal soap or
table linen or the contents of Professor
| Heury'S pantry without discrimination.
Every one iu the city. from Professor
Henry 10 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 to an account of the ruin
wrougkt' in his home during that day
| Professor Spencer Baird walked in
and said. just rs if he had been fol-
lowing every word of the family con-
verSation, Il have just been told that
there is man in Philadelphia who
can rid this place of rats"
Professor Henry's eyes expressed
interest and incredulity at the same
moment.
Il have his address here" went on
the assistant secretary. He calls
himself the 'ratten kong and won't
take cent if rat remains and has
We'll send for him if it takes our
last thousand cents to do it, said
Professor Henry and laughingly pre-
dicted the repetition of the famous old
tale of the Pied Piper of Hamein.
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 4 large
oicloth sack and Il covered basket.
His penetrating blue eyes were almost
covered by shaggy eyebrows, and his
blond hair had not been { at, but hag-
gled His manner was short and
brisk. and he went straight to the
point. talking to Professor Henry in
German.
Hc declared. that not rat would be
in the building three days hence if 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 then and there, but insisted
that Professor Henry mail the check
to 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 if 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"

Sanitary Dairy Barns.

second. because of the fact that milk

Practically No Railroad Construction.

Railroad men and members of the
Louisiana State Board of Appraisers
have arrived for the meeting of the
Board which begins this week. The
general belief is that there will be no
heavy increase in the assessments of
the railroads this year, although a
slight increase representing, the nat
ural increase in values, may be made.
Last year a slight increase was made
because of the depressed financial
condition and the falling off in bus
mess. The same condition has ex-
listed during this year. All of the
railroads have made their reports to
the Secretary of the Board showing
the property, mileage rolling stock,
etc. A small line in Calcasieu was
extended about twenty-three miles,
and a few saw mill roads increased
their gauge. With these exceptions
there was no construction.
