This Rat Was eure hunorv.

1t Is known that rat is persist
ept snawer and rarely ever gives up
a Job Of gnswing It undertakes, II the
Job requires all summer. J. II. Hou-
chenS, who conaucts a produce and
creamery business on the first floor of
Judge Colyer's building. on Main
street, was annoyed with the depreda-
lions Of rats which were raiding his
produce. and he thought he would
succeed in barring them out by tack
ing copper-faced metal electrotype
plate over the aperture through which
the rodents gained access to his room
from the outside. But to his surprise
and dismay he found one morning that
the rats-had gnawed crescent shaped
hole through the electrotype and again
got into his place Of business. This
may appear to be fish story to some
but 1t is stern citation Of fact. Those
who doubt 1t should call ON Mr.. Hou-
chens and examine the electrotype.-

Bowser, "when he was dying he
called me to him and told me always
to be honest under all circumstances.
Father was a noble man."
"Yes. you are an honest man." said
Mrs. Bowser. '"That is. II a man in

Mr.. Bowser felt that he had been

prove nothing. he let 1t go and con-
tinued:

my friends and found that a good
half of them had been called to their

him up In the morning, but he had a
noble heart in him. He gave me good
advice. He warned me never to
gamble.

home, I'd find death everywhere.
There used to be a brewery half
mile below our house. II l should
look for that brewery now"
Il hope you did not turn to lager

rupted Mrs. Bowser.
II Mr.. Bowser had said tannery
instead of brewery, he could have
made a sad thing of 1t. He realized
that he had made a failure Of 1t and
he switched of to say:
| "There were my schoolmates. They
have fallen by the wayside one by
one. They had the promise Of long
life, but they have been cut down by

''and you will have softer heart for

you once told me that you were so
madly in love with IL schoolgirl named
Sarah Pitkins that your To other had to
send for the doctor for you. Do you
know whether she is dead or living?
Mr.. Bowser did not answer the
question. He had forgotten that he
was fool enough to tell his wife about
| that love affair, and he also suddenly
recollected that he had heard, less
than a year before, that Sarah Pit

writer's of the bulletin, Is the Oldest,
simplest and cheapest fire extinguish-

elaborate fire-hghting equipment.
Round Bottom Buckets Best.
Any kind of bucket filed with water
and placed handily is good, but spe-
cial FIRE buckets with rounded bottoms
like kettle are best. There is no
temptation to use such buckets for
ordinary purposes and they are much
more likely to be left hung on the
brackets or in the round holes cut for
them in shelves. Any kind of fire
buckets should be specially painted or
labeled and never used for any pur-
pose other than fire fighting. They
should be placed near entrances and
near the top Of stairways or ladders
where they can easily be reached on
entering the building or loft. Several
buckets nested in a barrel Of water
are an effective device.
Needless to say, the fire buckets
should always be kept filed by replac-

After dinner Mr.. Bowser lighted his
cigar and sat down on the front steps
to smoke. The cat sat with him and
for an hour he seemed to have many
thoughts and paid but little heed to
what was going on around him. By and
by he went into the house and sat
down with Mrs. Bowser and presently
said:
II was having a revcry out there by
myself and 1t has made me feel sad"
Then you were thinking of sad
thingsf" queried Mrs. Bowser.
"Yes, they were sad. I was think

me to always speak the truth. can
remember every word she said. Dear
mother. but hope she has long
been with the angels"
'That is the reason why you always
speak the truth. now, is it?"
Mr.. Bowser looked at her rather
doubtfully. He realized that he lied
sometimes. as all men do, but he hoped
she would never find him out and
was. therefore, not using any sarcasm.
"And my father" continued Mr..

Gus. 1t was just as well to let this
matter rest. but the sadness still re-
manned, and he said:
my Uncle Joe was one Of the best
men that ever lived. He had heart
as kind as an angel. He stopped
moving many times in the meadow
to let the crickets and grasshoppers
get away into the next field. He told
me to be kind to even rats, aad have
never forgotten 1t. Poor Uncle Joe,
he has long been beneath the sod. but

and fresh as II he passed away but

be kind to rats were the last words
he ever spoke to me-"
"And that's why y6u keep three rat
traps down in the cellar all the time.
and why were you chasing a big rat
with club the other nightf"' softly
answered Mrs. Bowser.
Mr.. Bowser SHE'D of at once. He
hadn't done the fair thing by his Uncle
Joe. On the contrary. he had been
death on rats for the last 20 years, and
had boasted of how many he had
killed. He leaned his head on his
hand and snuffled a little. and then
said:
"Who will remember me when 1
am gonef There are many who claim
to be my friends now. but they will
waste no time thinking Of me when
the turf covers me. Once in a
while my name may recur to them,
but just as many will say, There lies
old Bowser, and 1t serves him right
and will heave n sigh that good
man has departed. Oh, hum, wish
hadn't fallen into a reverie. wish
this sadness had not come over me.

Mrs. Bowser made no reply. She
rose up and took from the top Of her
piano paper and handed 1t to hira,

Mr.. Bowser wiped a tear from his
eyes and looked and read. Then the
sadness went away. 1t didn't take
three seconds to vanish. and In an
other second he was flOYrishing his
arms about and crying out:
"The blamed scoundrels-the rob-
bers-the extortionists Here's our
gas bill 'or the last month. and
they have put dollar more onto
1t than the month before. Mrs.
Bowser, l am going down to- that
