CAT AND RAT EQUAL PESTS
Former Especially Have Wr-arht
Havoc Among the Smaller Native
Animals Of Australia.

In the Monte BeIlo islands domestic
cats have most unfortunately been in
troduced. which do much damage
amongst the wallabies, and have ex-
terminated the bandicoot. The cats
thrive exceedingly wherever they are
introduced. growing to great size.
They soon become wild and cunning,
and breed fast II may be safely said
that these animals are doing more
damage than anything else to the ma
tive fauna Of the Australian region:
indeed. the same remarks apply to
the greater part OF the world. Cats
are carried almost universally on
small trading ships, with the idea that
they keep down rats. When they be-
come too numerous or otherwise OBJ
jectionabie, they are simply marooned,
for to kill cat is considered among
the sailors as most unlucky.
The black rat is another introduced
species which does great harm. The
animal is found universally over the
Monte Beiio group, even on the small
outlying isets, which are never Wis
tied, on which II occurs most abun-
dantly. Its presence is attributed to
a schooner which was wrecked some
twelve years ago, for II is we'll known
that this rat is good swimmer It
Is curious to find that this animal,
which is now so rare in its native
countries as to be looked upon as a
great curiosity, should usually be one
OF the first species to populate new
lands where 1t is comparatively free
from competition. Driven from all civ
ilized countries by the brown rat, it
has taken to the sea, being better
adapted for lie on board ship than
its otherwise victorious rival -P. ID.

Some Of the terms used to describe
apartments are mystifying to the un-
initiated declares the New York Sun.
For instance. railroad fiat" conveys
little idea to the novice until 1t is ex-
planned that this special type Of apart
ment has no private hall The back
door and the front door both open
into the public hall, and the rooms
follow one after the other. like cars
on railroad train, which accounts
for the expression railroad fiat.
A "box fiat Is one degree up the
scale, for here, while there is no en-
tire length Of private hall, there ia a
sufficient slice taken from the bed
rooms so that one may walk from the
parlor to the dining room without
crossing the two intermediate bed
rooms The tiny hall is boxed in,
hence the name box fiat
A walk up speaks for itself and
IS easily translated into non-elevator
fiat. AS matter of fact, many of the
most desirable Of the older apartment
houses come under the head of walk
ups"
A push the button" is still another
type which may apply to any of the
others. 1t is never misleading, as 1t

trance.
