WHY" quoth Mr.. Hardware Mer-
chant
Because" replied the chief" a
man has complained at headquarters
that keeping rat in a trap, even
though it is not injured and is being
fed, constitutes cruelty to animals"
The fate of this rat. who was hav-
ing the time of his life, getting three
square meals day being immune

one. He was executed in a bucket of
water.
