RAT DIES WAITING FOR
RED TAPE TO KILL HIM.
Teacher Forced to Feed Pest Until
Rat Catcher Could Call.

The following story Of red tape Is
hard to beat even In the very cradle of
Prussinn officialdom. Not long ago the
head mistress Of high school for girls
notified the authorities that there was
Q rat on the premises and asked that
. man might be sent to kill It.
The request was duly noted, but as
the Official rat catcher was not immedi-
ately available the head mistress was
advised to feed the beast In the mean
time 80 that the rat catcher should not
make fruitless journey.
This she did for some weeks. and a.
the rat killer did not put In an appear
ance she made q second application.
The original request. she was inform
ed. had been mislaid. but help would
be sent in a few days. Weeks passed,
and one day the rat was found dead
and was buried In the garden In the
presence Of the head mistress.
A day. or so later an Official carrying
. bundle Of documents "in the matter
Of the rat" brought q message to the
effect that the head mistress should
take steps to destroy the rat ut her
own expense. as the ofilcinl rat catcher
could not come before the end Of No
vember.
Upon being Informed that the rat
was dead and buried the official re-
tired. but came buck the next day ask.

Five Rules For Conduct.
Tolstoy. after his "change Of heart, "
said he had discovered in the Sermon
on the Mount FIVE laws which became
his rule for faith and conduct. He
summarized them rs follows:
Live at peace with all men and do not
regard any one rs your inferior.
DO not make the beauty OF the body an
occasion for lust.
Every man should have only one wife
and every woman Only one husband. and
they should not BE- divorced for any rea-
son.
Do not revenge yourself. and do not
punish because you think yourself Insult
ed or hurt. Suffer all wrong and do not
repay evil with evil. for you are all chill
dren of one Father.
Never break the peace In the name OF
patriotism.
Whether Tolstoy lived up to the spir.
1t OF these rules is a question that has
been yariously answered. There have
been ugly rumors in regard to the
! real state of affairs at Yasnaya Poll.

view Of Reviews a couple Of years

Russian author. mo man is justified

limited that the old man himself was
the real 'martyr"-that his life was
made well nigh intOlerable.

The ELEPHANT TURNED.
A Bit Of Treachery and Badly Bat
tered Trainer.

Carl Hagcnbeck, the eminent
owner, exhibitor and trainer Of
wild animals, had many adventures
in his half century of experience.
Some of them are described in q
book entitled '|Beasts and Men"
On more than one occasion an Gle
plant came uncomfortably near
putting an end to Mr. 1Iagenbeck's
career. One of the worst accidents
happened at the end of the sixties.
About that time he purchased
menagcrie at Trieste, which includ
ed among the other beasts fe
male elephant which stood about
eight feet high. 1t seemed to be
thoroughly good tempered animal,
its only fault being that it occa-
sionally had the sulks-"a not I'M
common characteristic" comments
Mr.. Hagenbeck, "in all feminine
creatures.
He soon made friends with the
elephant, which he named Lissy,
and he never passed its stall with
out giving it a handful of food. He
was therefore, he believed, justified
in thinking he had quite won its
heart, and as it never showed any
signs of violence it did not occur
| to Mr.. Hagenbeck that he might be
dealing with a grossly deceitful
creature.
The elephant was learning a
trick in which it had to swing its
keeper into the air with its trunk
and then slowly set him upon the
ground again. The word of COM
mand which was given to the beast
when it had to perform this simple
exhibition was:
'Lissy, apport'
Zone day." to continue in Mr..
Hagenbeck's own words, 81 found
Lissy alone in her stable, the keep
er being absent. 1t must have been
O devil that made me feel a desire
to be raised on high by her, after
the manner of her affectionate
treatment of her keeper. I stroked
and fed her and then, taking hold
of her trunk, called out the word
of command:
| "1 issy annortr
"Then followed one of the most
Wiley treacherous acts of which l
have ever heard. Eissy began to
obey the order, but 1 soon felt that
she was bent on mischief, for the
embrace of her trunk was unpleas-
antly vigorous, and l scared high
into the air.
"But l was not quietly deposited
sAce more upon my feet.
"Instead of this Lissy dashed me
violently against the wooden bar
rier in front of her stall, and l
went flying over into the menag-
erie.
81 lay almost senseless upon the
ground until the old keeper, Phi
lippe, appeared to help me home.
FORTUNATELY no bones were
broken, but l was terribly battered
and bruised and for weeks could
only hobble about with great pain"

In his literary work the countess
proved valuable critic and assistant
OF her assistance he wrote to q
friend, "She Is by no means a triner,
but is an earnest helpment to me-"
Later Oh in his career, when his
striving after simplicity possessed him,
a change came over their life. But It
was impossible for him to readjust
himself and the family wholly to the
new order. He could not cut himself
Of from his wife and family. In 1881
his eldest son entered the university
and hts eldest daughter was intro
duced to society. 1t was necessary for
the family to spend more time In the
city.
But this town life brought on q re-
volt. and a few years later he re-
nounced all claims to his lands and
made over everything to his wife and
children, the countess acting as tYus-
tee. Yet he continued to live In the
same house with them, and as yet the
change was more mental than physi-

account, did not ten HIN from a SOL

1t was in 1879. four years after the

Think Of death more often and
live as " you were TO die soon.
However you may hesitate how to
act, imagine that you are to die In
the evening. and your doubts will
clear away Immediately. You VIII

what your personal desires are
YOU envy another: you are indig-
nant, angry at him: you want to
wreak your vengeance on him.
Consider that today or tomorrow
that man viii die, and not q trace

against him.
Death is more inevitable than the
approach OF night, of winter. Why,
then, while preparing for the night.
for winter, do we not prepare our
selves for death? The preparation
for death is a righteous life. The
better the life we lead the smaller
the fear of death. For the holy
there is no death.
Just as the owner of the fig tree
knows the time when the fruit IS
ripe so God knows when to call the

SAW THE FOLLY OF NAGGING
Judicious Mother Impressed by Cues
ton Put to Her by Her
Small Son.

My son taught me a lesson on the
subject of "nagging" when he was
but four years old, and one that I
have never forgotten He had been
guilty of a small misdemeanor and
had tried to wriggle out Of it by not
telling the exact truth. 1 gave him q
mild spanking; and, as has always
been my custom, talked the matter
over afterward. I began by saying:
Nov, Robert, if you had told me the
truth, should not have punished
you"
He stood before me scraping one
foot along the carpet, and he looked
up at me and said: What would you
have done?" and 1 answered: II
should have only talked to YOU"
WELL" he drawled, chow long would
you have talked?"
He Is big boy in high school now,
but when times arise requiring a rep
rtmand, and get started, still hear
that little voice: "How long would
you have talked?" and l go right to
the point and say what have to say
on the subject But, in the boys own
language, "cut it short" and never
refer to it again unless it is absolute
~ necessary.-Harper's Bazar
