Death to Rats.

A study Of bariuni carbonate as q
Eat poison, made by the United States
Department Of Agriculture, indicates
that 20 per cent mixture with food
makes q satisfactory bait. With this
percentage a rat ordinarily needs to
eat only one-third or three-eighths Of
q meal Of average size to get fatal
dose. 1t was found that with this
dose many Of the rats poisoned died
within "a hours, though an occasional
rat was found which survived an even
larger amount, thus indicating that 100
per cent mortality is not to be expect
ed In any case.
A summary Of results Of expert
ments conducted by various persons
with a view to determining the dead
illness Of barium to different animals
shows the fallacy Of the assumption
that barium is poisonous only to rats.
It is pointed out that the fatal dose Of
barium per pound tends to decrease
relatively as the size Of the animal In
creases, and that bait calculated to
be fatal to rats may be assumed to be
more or less dangerous to small do
nestle animals also.

JOKE !! |! | ON On MOTHER |! Z | | |
Precise Old Lady Convicted Of
Using Slang.
That Term With Which She Fright
ened Youngsters Was Taboo.

My mother detested slang, says q
writer In Scribner's. The use of slang
expressions was to her something very
closely akin to making up a,bed with
out properly airing it or going to
party without clean handkerchief.
When my sister or I used some Of
the slang Of our day, she used to say
plaintively that she couldn't think
where we got hold Of such expressions.
Had anyone said to me then that my
mother used slang should have been
incredulous and very likely indignant
While l considered my own right to q
latitude Of language inalienable to my
youth, felt, if only subconsciously,
that mothers (and especially mine.
who was Of the good Old-fashioned va
riety Of genuine mOthers) were diff
ferent. One would no more expect
them to use slang than one would ex-
pect them to wear short skirts, or
dance, or ride a bicycle, Or want the
largest helping Of ice cream. I am
sure if 1 had heard my mother say
"rubberneck" or ''for the love Of
Mike" the sound of such words on
her lips would have Mortified me even
more than they Mortified her when she
heard them on mine
1t was only recently that the great
revelation came to me. Harking back
to my childhood, had used one of my
mothers favorite words, "rambunc-
tious,'' and was promptly asked what
it meant by a person who had not
had the advantage Of being brought
up in New England. Surprised at
her ignorance, I explained at once that
it was my mothers word for-well, for
what? l had to put my reluctant brain
to work before I could find words
that gave even a faint flavor Of what
mother meant when she said: "Now,
you children, you're getting altogether
too rambunctious. Not satisfied with
my own definition, finally sought Mr..
Webster's aid. RambunctiOus was not
In the abridged on my desk. When
had turned, grumbling at the words
they select to leave out Of the abridged
to the unwieldy colossus in the
hall, could scarcely believe my knowl-
edge Of the sequence of the alphabet.
But careful resurvey failed to find
me tripping. Rambunctious was not
there. The dictionary passed blithely
on. from rambler to rameal (the saE1e
as ramal, if you must know.
AS laid the dictionary down new
light burst upon me. Rambunctious
was not a word in good standing.

her to sing about Mother Hubbard"

well-knOwn character, and she will

Purdy Bares Drice on
Tenement House Lac
Landlords agents accused of
Harassing Poor and Also
disappearing Conditions

Lawson Purdy, chairman of the tene-
ment house committee of the Charity
Organization Society, charges in a
pamphlet issued yesterday that assoc-
ations of landlords owning tenement
houses are endeavoring, through paid
agents appearing before the committe G
of the Legislature, to have the tene-
mert house law of 1901 abolished.
The usual arguments advanced by
these agents, Mr.. Purdy says, is that
the Tenement House Department of
New York is "coddling" the poor by OBJ
tanning for them surroundings far bet
ter than they need or are able to ap-
preciate, housing of kind that they
were unused to in their original home .
in other countries.
Mr.. Purdy says that because of the
latitude permitted tenement house
owners during the war abuses of the
law have grown up which have led the
owners to seek many amendments and
to annoy their tenants in the hope that
they will move out and leave the prem
Uses available for reletting at higher
rents.
I'VE have no hesitation in asserting, y
Mr.. Purdy's pamphlet says, chat at
the present time the force of the de-
partment is inadequate to keep up with
the complaints received not to speak
Of making the original inspections of
all tenement houses which the law re-
quires."
Mr.. Purdy concludes by saying that
public sentiment should be aroused ia
combat these assaults on the law,
