RAT is FRIEND OF MINERS

trophe When the Rodents Leave
Tunnei-Ars Fed by Men.

Investigators Of mining conditions
and the peculiar dangers to which
miners are subjected recently have
taken much interest In the practice
Of Western gold miners to make pets
Of the rats which commonly infest
mines. On the mother lode Of Cali
fornia It has been found that the
miners invariably feed the rats and
take care Of them. believing that the
rodents are 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 a tunnel is unsafe. And when
the rats leave tunnel It is almost i'm.
possible to get the miners to work
there. This recalls the belief among
sailors that rats will leave a doomed
ship. The miners also have found that
rats are much more susceptible than
humans to the dangerous gases that
% 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.

of a smashing blow.

not engaged is known that the great reserve
army, said be 900 men, which the British and
French have been holding to throw into weak spot
not been called upon This means that Generals
Haig Petaine have considered the SITUATION
dangerous is impossible that men of such splendid
Judgment as these heroes would permit their armies
to be endangered and allow one and half million
soldiers who could be called at time to remain idle
1t is known that the United States has more than
