The fable of the couutry wotine and
the town nmune lma a foundutlou in
fact Mice occaHioually migrate ln large
numbers when food grows scarce and
travel considerable dlataucee to fresh
nouses. Farmers In a part of Perth
hire tiaa a good reason to become
ware of this fact when a couplo of
years ago vast swarms of mice Invaded
meir cornnelds at harvest time.
Hut the mouse only travels when It
has to. The rat, on the contrary, seems
to tane a yearly outing, In very much
me same fashion as do human belnmi.
Rats are the most migratory creatures
ta the world. Troops of rata leave the
towna at the end of summer and spend
inonin or two in tho country, nmtar.
ently In order to enjoy tht chunge of
toon wuicn tho country affords at that
uuie or the year lu the way of fresh
fruit and grain. Itefor the cold weuth-
er sets ln they are all back agnln In
meir old quarters.
Reindeer migrate with the same reg
ularity as swallows. They move south
wnen winter seta In, but as soon aa er
er the snow begins to melt they travel
steadily north, sometimes for aa much
as a thousand miles.
To end holiday by deliberate aul
cido is so strange a phenomenon that
for a long time naturalists looked upon
me stories or the migration of the lem
mings as an Improbable Action. Yet the
tacts aro beyond dispute. At Irregulur
intervaia these ratlike creatures start
out from their homes In the fastneNsc
of northern Scandinavia In huge droves
numbering tens of thousands and trav
el steadily southward. Death pursues
them In a hundred forms. Hawks and
other birds of prey hover above them.
Thousands are drowned In rivers. Yet
the rest struggle on until they reach
the sea. They do not ston. Thev nlunea

since she called blm her Gentleman of

For awhile after this she noticed a

a tossed and tangled mass.
"It's nothing, but perhaps you'd bet
ter get a doctor," gasped Miss Mouse.
"My head's so queer, and, oh, I'm so
warm I"
Soon after a serene faced nurse In a
striped uniform and white apron was
Installed ln the room, and to ber little
Miss Mouse, down with brain fever,
talked an unending Jargon.
"If you can have a castle ln Spain,
you can certainly have a knight in
Spain, can't yon?" abe demanded over
and over again.
"Of course you can," soothed the
nurse.
"I'd be very lonely if be vanished,
as castles in Spain do," she said at
another time, with wistful, puzzled

On one occasion live adventurous
spirits, under the leadership of a cer
tain Pierre Roubaud, taking with them
cooking utensils, scaled the spire of
Buyeux cathedral. On .reaching the
gigantic glided statue of St. Michael,
which then stood on the summit, they
proceeded to cook their dinner, which
they ate with great gusto, much to the
amazement of the onlookers, wbose
health tbey drank at the conclusion of
the feast
In the tower of Erfurt cathedral
hangs a huge bell ten feet high and
thirty feet in circumference, weighing
thirteen tons. Within this in July,
1713, dined ten of the town's most op
ulent Dnrgners on aisnes cooked ln a
kitchen temporarily erected on the
beam that supported the ponderous
mass of tlntlnnabnlary metal. To cel
ebrate this repast medals were struck,
having on the obverse the portraits of
the guests and on the reverse the rep
resentation of the curious scene.
A diving bell was some years since
utilized as a kitchen to supply a repast
for half a dozen convives who, for a
wager, had undertaken to cook and eat
1 dinner of half a dozen courses be
neath the water. This entertainment,
which took place at Naples, was held
ln emulation of a somewhat similar
achievement by six gentlemen who had
used a diving bell for partaking of a
meal cooked on board a barge moored
gear at hand.
in 17UO one James Austin laid a
wager of 100 that be would cook a
plum pudding ten feet beneath the sur
face of the Thames, near Rotherhithe.
The bet was readily accepted, and
many people flocked to the appointed
locale to watch this strange exhibition
of the culinary art Inclosed In a tin
pan in the center of a sack of lime, tbe
pudding was lowered beneath the wa
ter, where for two hours and a half It
remained. It was then taken up and
partaken of by a committee, who de
clared that Austin had won bis wager,
tbe pudding being, if anything, over
done. London Tlt-BiU, .
