Rodents Do Much pamaue,

Next to the insects, the animals that are chiefly harmful to man are the rodents, an order of mammals often regarded as wholly nOxious. David E. Lantz of the United States geological survey finds that the TO- dents of North and Central America include about 1850 species of 77 genera, and of these, 75O species of A genera inhabit the United States and Canada. Many of these, living in deserts, mountains and swamps, do not come in contact with cultivated soil. They cannot, therefore, be classed as injurious, and many of them are preparing the soil for future use, and there are other rodents that are doing useful work in destroying grasshOppers and similar pests. Ger tain of the rodents, too, such as the beaver and muskrat, have an eco homie value as fur bearers. Native rodents include among harmful kinds the short-tailed field mice, white-foot- ed mice, cotton rats, kangaroo rats, pocket gophers, ground squirrels, prairie dogs, woOdchucks and rabbits. The house mouse and three kinds of rats are the only rodent pests in North America not native to the country. They are the most injurious, how ever, and probably cause greater losses than all native kinds con- bined,

SHORTEST, BUT MOST NOTED
February Is Supreme Above All oth- ers as the Natal Month of the
 WorId,a Famous.

Was there ever such a month as February? It would seem that though it is the shortest month in the year it has crowded into it's 28 days more birthdays of worldwide celebrities than any of the other Il months No less than 28 people of note have seen the light of day for the first time in that month. And their range is wide. February is not partial to any par ticular kind of celebrity.
 On February 1, 1870, Commodore David Porter was born On the third Of the month, 1909, Felix Mendelssohn came into the world. On the same day, but in 1911, Horace Greeley fol- lowed. On the fifth, 1788, Sir Robert Peel was born. The birthdays of Oth- CT notables occur in this order:
 February 6, 1756-Aaron Burr.
 February 6, 1S38-Sir Henry Irving.
 February ', 1912-Charles Dickens.
 February 8, 1s2O-William Tecum- sch Sherman.
 February 8, 1919-John Ruskin.
 February 8, 1828-Jules Verne.
 February 9, 1773-William Henry Harrison.
 February 9, 1S14-Samuel J. Tilden.
 February 10, 1775-Charles Lamb.
 February Il, 1847-Thomas A. Edi- son.

. Mrs. Hendricks lips framed re- monstrance, but an idea struck her and she exclaimed:
 That's good idea. It will be some thing novel; he'Il furnish some amuse- ment and be no end of fun. Is he an entertainer?'
 "Yes, he plays the violin; not like Mr. Seldon, but he plays well, in. his own peculiar way"
 All was ready for the party except that Clare and the newly invited guest were absent Mrs. Hendricks told Mir. Seldon and Mir. POntellO of the treat that was in store-a selection by a rus tic vfOlinist, and also that Clare's choice of a husband would be an- nounced. Both Seldon and Mir. Pon- tella, looked, hopeful.
 Presently Clare entered, followed by a young man. The latter'S face was not unattractive, in spite of the deep tan and freckles peeping through it.
 Tntroductions followed and soon din- ner was served. Then the evenings imprOmptE entertainment began, MT. ~Seldon opening with the very latest of classical selections. Sam Hilton, the newcomer, looked in awe and stared helplessly at the battered violin case he had lugged in with him.
 Mir. Pontello- sat at the piano and rendered a masterpiece in skillful fash ion, and Encouragement displayed it. self on MT. Hilton's countenance. "Now, MT. Hilton, will you favor uS?" Mrs. Hendricks asked.
 : The person addressed rose awkward ly, opened the violin case and took out a sad-looking instrument. He placed it to his chin. frightened the bow and applied it to the strings, and then his arm began to shake and his legs to tremble. moment later he braced LID, his arm became steady, his legs stiffened, and the strains of Home. Sweet Home" began to sound in the ears of the assemblage. Their laugh ing ceased and their faces grew grave as they listened. Clare actually cried. : When the program came to a close Mrs. Hendricks, at sign from Clare. rose with smirk, cOughed and be- gan:
 "Friends this is most suspicious occasion, for Miss Clare is to announce her choice in matrimOny, or, rather. I am to announce it for her. So l hereby make known her engagement to- ..- .. .'
 Clare slipped a folded paper to Mrs. Hendricks, who opened it and read aloud: ''NIr. Samuel Hilton of Clear brook"
 Then Mrs. Hendricks gasped, seemed tG choke and sank dazed into the near est chair. ..---

Preventino Loss of Identity.

All parents are being urged to have their children's finger-printS taken, so that in case of disappearance from home their whereabouts can be more easily ascertained than with a meager description. The police department of any city would be glad, with this idea in view, to make and file the finger prints. Argentina is far in advance in this matter. In that country the fingerprints of every individual are taken and filed away for possible fu- ture reference. Every now and then one hears of case where somebody has forgotten all about himself, and does not know who he is or where he belongs. This afflietion, fortunately rare, is called "aphasia." If the finger prints of such an unlucky individual were on file somewhere, the task of identifying him might be greatly sim pli1ed. Fingerprints taken in baby hood do not alter their pattern through life. Every day the War and Navy departments are called upon to locate young men who are missing from their homes. With only the names (which may have been changed) and the vague descriptions, it is always difficult and often impossible to respond to the de- mand.

cities of Wall street and came to her with tale of woe, Clare gave her a place in the studio. Mrs. Hendricks never would have served anyone else in the same capacity, but she wor- shiped art and artists, and especially did she worship her protege.
 "Mr. Pontello, though, is the best iOOker," Mrs. Hendricks observed, seiz- ing a dustless duster and getting busy with it about the legs of table And they're both rich-that's the best part of it." she added as an afterthOught, as though that phase of the subject had never before occurred to her.
 Clare, draining the coffee cup, wiped some remnants of toast from her lap and laid the cup and plate on the table.
 "Oh, they're both fine fellows, and both good looking. and both very ac- cOmplished musicians, and both rich," she said, standing and making few alterations in the arrangement of her hair. ''Mr. SeldOn plays wonderfully on the violin. and Mir. POntellO has no peer on the piano."
 If Mrs. Hendricks could have be- come cognizant of the workings of Clares mind just them, she would have gasped with astOnishment, for neither the pale blue eyes of MT. Seldon nor the midnight orbs of MT. POntello. played even a minor role in the medi- tatiOns of the procrastinating artist.
 The picture that Clare visualized had to do with a country town. She vi-. stoned herself in sunbOnnet and ging- ham dress walking along the street in company with "a -freckled youth who was carrying her books.
 The scene shifted and the new one might have been called "Six Years Later" if, it had been part of a film play. In her fancy she was attending a barn dance, where country lads and lassies cavOrted and coquetted and flirted in their rustic way, and all of them were smiling and happy, al- though none was handsome or accom- plished or rich.
 .|- The music was furnished by tall, gangling youth, mounted on a plat. form, saving on violin, and stamping his foot loudly to make up for the ab- sence of drums. The gangling youth was the freckTed boy grown up.
 Another scene showed Clare on the rear platform of the last coach of a train.-~which was moving from sta tion. The gangling youth stood on the platform, fOrlorn-lOoking object and Clare's eyes filled with tears as the train carried her out of sight.
 Clare sighed, and took from a drawer of the table a letter which she opened and read. Her mouth took on wist- ful expression and her eyes glistened.
 Mrs. Hendricks hustled into the room at her easel.
 Have you decided, dearie?" she aked. Have you chosen?"
 T have At our little party tonight you will announce my engagement"
 ''To MT, Seldom" breathed Mrs. Hendricks hopefully.
 Clare shook leS head
 'T'm not telling you who it is to be. You will know no sooner than the others. When you get ready to make the announcement I will slip you a folded paper containing the name.''
 Mrs. Hendricks looked disappointed, crestfallen.
 By the way" said Clare, "a boy from my old home town is coming to see me today and he's going to be guest at the party

kinaa of Rome.

The kings of Rome were RomuIus who, according to conjecture, began to reign in the year 735 B. C., and was murdered by the senators. Titus Ia tius, king of the Sabines, ruled jointly with Romulus six years ;~ Numa Pompilius, son-in-law of Tatius Tullus HOstilius, murdered by his successor; Ancus Martius, grandson of Numa i; TarQuinius Priscus; Servius Tullius; Tarquinius Superbus, who was the last king. The monarchy was abol- ished and a republican form of gov ernment established in 51O B. c. There after, for the most part the chief ex- ecutive officers of the republic were consuls, two being chosen each year. There were many civil wars. The re- public practically came to an end when Julius Caesar was made perpetual dic- tator in the year 4S B. O., bat the em- pire is generally held to have com menced in the year 31 B. C., when the supreme power became centered in Oc- tavius, the grand nephew of Julius Caesar, who reigned as emperor with the title of Augustus Caesar. It was during his reign that our Savior was born. Augustus died in the year IA A. D.

woman of wealth." And that com fOrted a little. Herbert has talked to . me about investing that little legacy Aunt Harriet left me, but l never could get interested in bonds and things"
 She put off telling her husband till after dinner, and then when they were seated cOzily in the little living room she found it very difficult to begin. It had happened so naturally, but to tell about it made the whole thing seem very common and ridiculous.
 Herbert" finally in faltering voice, bending low over a bit of em- brOidery, "a mana young man-was telling me about Argentine bonds"
 "Oh, yes" interrupted her husband, looking up from his paper, that's so. Well, how did you like young Rigby? Nice, smart boy? Did you remember him?"
 Avora looked up Open-mOuthed, then "NO-I mean" stopped, feeling very foolish.
 "I told him. ten to one my wife won't remember that introduced you one day in the brokers office. l told him to try our apartment first, and if you were out to try the shopping district; also might try the lobby of the Albemarle. Where did he meet yOu?'
 "Albemarle," answered Av0ra weak ly. "Herbert, did you want him to sell me a bOnd?"
 "Oh, I don't know. dear. You see, your voice sounded so lonesome over the phone, and after you had hung up I remembered that it was your birth day. Young Righy just happened to come in and told him to look you up and try to interest you in some investments. I thought it would help you to pass a lonely day, dear. ] tried to get you on the phone, but your line was busy"
 His wife rose, with face averted; {; there were tears in her eyes.
 "I hated to think of you all alone on your birthday, dear" added the husband cheerfully. But come over here, Avora Wen make it up tOmOr- row! How about going out to the country? Might look at some little bungalows in the suburbs. T think you would get acquainted very easily there and not be so lonesome, eh" AvOr1 cuddIed up on her husbands lap and pressed kiss on his cheek.
