young folks talk the matter over and,
if they agree, the young mans father

The Rats Adventure.

Once upon a time Mr.. and Mrs. Rat
and their children foun a new home
in a wire squirrel cage. AT first they
didn't like it, but they soon grew used
to it and, as they had plenty to eat, it
saved Mr.. Rat the trouble of hunting
for o and Mrs. Rat didn't have to
worry for fear the cat would catch
them.
Both Mr.. and Mrs. Rat grew very
fat and lazy. There was a nice wheel
in the cage that they could make go
round n round and the children loved
to play with it, but Mr.. and Mrs. Rat
just slept and ate all day.
One day the youngest of the children
was in the wheel playing n it found
by squeezing it could get through the
wires. That was fun, and off it ran
to see what it could find. Round and
round the room 1t ran until it found a
small place where It. could get through
into the next room and so on through
the house. 1t ran over the couch and
over the piano and finally landed on
grandpa up and he asked who was
playing the piano, but as the house was
quiet n no else was in the room,
he thought he was dreaming and went
off to sleep again.
Finally the rat thought it was time
to be starting for home, and it ran out
Of the room and into another. Cook
saw it and chased it with a broom, but
at last it reached the cage and squeezed
through the wires and was home again.
What a lot it had to tell the others,
and the next day the other little rats
tried to get through too. but they were
all to large and the little one ran off
alone again.
1t ran into one room and there, in
front of h window, was a cage like
the IN it lived in, except this one was
much prettier. but it didn't have any
wheel in it. The little rat thought he
would see If he could get into his cage
and if he could and liked it he would
live there all by himself. 1t seemed
quite empty and very much better than
the one he had left.
Very carefully he climbed up to try
and get In, and he squeezed and
squeezed until at last he managed to
get between the wires. AS he did so
he saw something in the corner, and
there, in a heap at The bottom was
something yellow and fluffy, 1t flew to
the top and then to the bottom again
and made c a noise that some one
opened the door and came toward the
cage
The rat heard some one say: why,
it's one Of those horrid rats in the ca
nary's cage. How did 1t get there?'
The rat didn't wait to hear any more,
but a home as fast as he could, and
he never ran away again.

MAKE RUBBER FROM PITCH.

stockholm. (by mail).-According to
reports reaching here, German expert
mentors have succeeded in making a
synthetic rubber-or. at least an ac-
ceptable substitute-from pitch, of
which they import great quantities
from Sweden. Similar experiments
have been conducted by various Swed-
ish scientists, u thus far without sue
cess. Many of them are still OF the
