much of the family ironing can be
done in this way. There are TWO
varieties of mangles, the cold roll and
the hot roll. The cold roll is used
very largely In England and Ireland,
and consists Of wooden rollers be-
tween which the clothes are ironed
merely by pressure. In the hot roll
mangles one roll covered with cloth
reyolves against another heated roll
or plate. These plates may be heated
by gas or gasoline, and run by what
ever power is available. Mangles can
not iron garments which require hand
work. but what is called the fiat work
can be done satisfactorily by them.
The number of fiatirons now on the
market attests the demand OF the
housewife for aid in this direction.

oiboias Arc Used as Domestic Rat
Catchers In Brazil.
In certain parts Of Brazil, where the
climate Is intensely hot and where
rats are a great nuisance, the common
cat does not thrive, but is'replaced by
a domestic rat catcher whose presence
causes a decidedly unpleasant sensa-
ton to visitors from the north when
first they come in contact with the
creature.
Giboias are a species Of small boa
constructor employed very generally in
Brazil for the purpose, above men-
toned. They are not at all venomous.
They sleep in the house. generally
taking up their position at the foot of
the stairs. When nightfall approaches
they begin to wake up, and during the
night they slide swiftly about the
premises, looking for rats.
Giboias are offered for sale in the
markets of Bahia and Pernambuco for
prices ranging from 81 to SIS, accord
ing to the size of the creature. 1t Is
said that they are so easily domest-
Gated that If removed from one house
to another they invariably return to
the house whence they have been
taken. Often when one is bargaining
with broker for the sale or lease Of
a residence in certain parts of Brazil

eloquence upon the virtues and skill
Of the giboia that goes with it.-Har-

QUAIL SHOOTING.
0sme Of the Difficulties That Confront

0sme Of the Difficulties That Confront
the Man, With the Gun.
zone of the difficulties Of quail
shooting lies In the very fact that
would apparently make his killing a
simple proposition, his rising near the
gun" says Charles Askin In Outing.
Let me illustrates: If a quail rose
within ten feet Of the gun and contin-
ued sailing around the shooters head
at a mile a minute gait the chances
are that he couldn't be killed in ten
shots, both the bird and the gun
changing angle with a rapidlty beyond
the ability of the mind to calculate.
In the same way close sprtnging bird

quently makes this long swing IN
avoidable. The bird may rise to the
north, pass to the west and be killed
to the south. Had 1t been possible to
foresee that the bird would swing
about to the south before being killed
the gun might have been pointed there.
rendering unnecessary a complex gun
movement, but meantime the quarry
would probably have gone in some
other direction. The quail work that
calls for care and skill is cover shoot
ing, and the only safe rule there is to
point your gun as near the bird as you
can when he breaks and shoot as
quickly as you can get on"
