RAT IS FRIEND OF MINERS
Workers Warned Of Coming Catas-
trophe When the Rodents Leave
Tunnel-Are Fed by Men.

Investigators of mining conditions
and the peculiar dangers to which
miners are subjected recently have
taken much interest I'm the practice
of Western gold miners to make pets
Of the rats which commonly infest
mines. On the mother lode OF Cali
forna It has been found that the
miners invariably feed the rats and
take care of them. believing that the
rodents are a source of protection
against accident, says Our Dumb Ami
mails. This is due, the men say, to the
instinct of the rats, which warns them
when tunnel is unsafe. And when
the rats leave n tunnel 1t is almost i'm
possible to get the miners 10 work
there. This recalls the belief among
sailors that rats will leave doomed
ship. The miners also have found that
rats are much more susceptible than
humans to the dangerous gases that
so often cause loss OF life in the mines.
Long before the miners themselves are
affected by these gases the rats be-
come sick and show symptoms of dis.
tress. So the men keep close watch
of the rats good health.

Curious Courtship.

Mr.. Horace Hutchinson, the natu-

friend, of swan and pike, living
on and in n small piece of ornamental
water, becoming friendly. Wherever
the swan went the pike went too,
swimming alongside the bird. When
the swan went ashore, II is not re-
lGted that the pike tried to follow, hut
1t is said that he waited beside ths
bank, swimming up and down in for
lorn, distracted way, until the swan
came back again. 1t was subject of
some debate whether the swan return
ed tn, attachment, until the pike died,
and the swan was so overcome with
grief at his loss that he pinned away
and soon died also.

toms include feeling VI weakness

II sometimes rises higher.
The mouth temperature of n healthy
person is between 9S degrees and 90.
This may vary according to the time
of the day. II Is not unusual for the
mouth temperature of healthy per-
son to be as low us 81 degrees in the
morning, or MS high as 30 In the late
afternoon. The presence of fever Is
an indication of sickness, and should
be watched.

Pain Is most important symptom
and should never be treated lightly. 1t
does not occur In persons who are

health rs far as safely possible on the
shoulders of the women in the home.
There is nothing so dangerous MS
"amateur nursing" that Is giving med
icine without the doctors orders, but
there are certain things she can safely
do for them when they are sick.
First Of all don't be afraid of "catch-
ing" contagious disease, but take
proper precautions, and then believe
that you and your family will keep
we'll
Remember that great number of
communicable diseases are spread by
actual contact with the germ causing
tLeps. These germs, as In the cases
o. influenza and pneumonia, are eX-
PEELED into the air when the sick per-
son coughs, sneezes, talks forcibly or
carelessly expectorates.
When you are near such person
protect yourself by placing your hand
kerchief over your mouth and nose.
When you cough or sneeZe. whether
sick or well, protect your neighbor by
covering your own mouth and nose.
Avoid crowds and stay out in the
away from poorly ventilated places,
such as moving picture theaters and
crowded cars. Don't visit your neigh
Dor with contagious disease unless
your services are needed. If you do
go. take proper precautions not to in

after touching the patient or anything
belonging to him.
Get plenty OF sleep; keep your bed
room windows wide open. but don't
let your body get chilled. Use extra
covering when necessary. Ignorance
and carelessness can spoil the best
living conditions, and sometimes,
even in the country, fresh air and sun:
shine are excluded from sleeping and
living rooms. Keep the living room
well ventilated and not too warm.
Never use common drinking cups,
common towels, powder puffs belonging
to someone else, and, above all, keep
the hands clean. 1t is hardly pos
sible to overemphasize the importance
of keeping the hands clean.
The human hand Is n great carrier
of disease germs both to and from
the body. If unclean hands could be
kept away from the mouth especially
and washed before touching food, |
have no doubt that many diseases
might be avoided.
These measures are the purely me-
chanical means of preventing the
spread of contagion. 1t is reassurlng

Don't take baths that are either too
