With the exception of tho famous
Tlrrr, nobody has yet found a success
f.i! nitho!j of getting rid of rt.
Ways and means we have nil si-en sj
vertlsed in the street enrs and news
papers, and yet other methods we
have now onl then heard ploassntly
narrated In the course of polite con
versation. Hut these deal wi'h the rat
as an individual with our personal
rat, so to tpeak; and invention has
yet to find the way of annihilating en
tire communities. For such a solution
of the "rt problem" the department
cf agriculture has recently stated that
It would libTa"y reward the inventor.
The rst. Individually, Is a n'liH.Kire;
the rt cnttortjvely, n acitinl drnln
upon the legitimate profirs of Ameri
can agriculture. Reduced to probable
figure this yearly tix, levjed and suc
cessfully collected ty a counties?
army of rodents, reaches a surprising
total. Hoard and lodging for Oje rat
for one yoar !, pt;niatei at 0 cents
and it rcay he fairly enough assumed
that the farms cf the country support
at least one rat for every cow, homo
pig, or other useful kind of live stock.
If this ia true, even allowing that one-
half of the sustenance of the rats la
waste matter, the boatd bill counts up
In cereals to something over 1.10,000,
000. la France the loss yearly sus
tained through their existence la offi
cially placed at HO.O'.tO.OOS, which Inili
cates pretty clearly that the figures
roughly estimated by our own investi
gators are far below the actual. Who
ever can find way to destroy the
pt in large numbers will therefore
.not only earn the rewards of the de
partment of agriculture, but will con
fer a blessing upon practically every
living agriculturist. Nor. adds the
Boston Budget, need be be debarred
by sentimental reasons. The rats now
living on the country without giving
anything lu return for it are all de
scended from stowaways who came
over without paying aay attention
whatever to the immigration laws.
One of the Yale professors has been
making a study of the occupations of
Yale graduates by classes. He finds,
among other things, that a constantly
lessening number are entering the
' ministry, and a steadily increasing
number are studying law. The law
now claims more than twice as many
as any other profession. Next to it
comes finance. Less than one-twelfth
of the. graduates enter the ministry.
In spite of the fact that one of the
purposes for which Yale was founded
was "to train godly young men for the
Christian ministry." Hut, side by side
with these facts, it is also noted that
charitable and philanthropic work
the giving both of money and cf serr
Ice is yearly claiming a larger share
cf the Interest of educated men and
omen. remaps that la where the
"godly young men" of today are
going.
A bill was recently presented In the-
Italian chamber of deputies providing
tor a ? 200,000 lottery, with the pro

out txcavations at the site of the Ro

town, founded, according to tradition
by Diomedes, and pcsseislcg Trajan's
triumphal arch, which resembles the

What Is Preaching?
'One of the most notable utterance
from the I'nlUriaa trethren cornea
from the Rev. Dr. Thomaa Elicer. says
rinstoa Herald, who deplores the habit
nt some of hi brvthrea f the cloth In
trt-aUng of economics, politics and
civic in their pulpits. Instead of
preaching the gospel. Ia rr. encer-f
opinion, this isn't preuchln- at all. It
la lecturing, luatead. A great many
churchgoers will agree with this view.
There may be special occasion when
sermons on texts from Holy Writ may
appropriately yield ta some temi-orary
exigency, but as a rule rellgloa, pure
and simple, is the preachers best
theme and rpost acceptable to his cou.
legation.

NEW IMMIGRATION LAW.

Washington. The new Immigration
laws placing numerous restrictions
upon the incoming of undesirable for
eigners, will no Into effect Monday.
The most important change brought
about by those acts which congress

the head tax from f2 to l with the?
provision that all over tr.OOO.OOO of the
revenue to derived will revet to the
Lulled States treasury instead cf
being entirely de-voted to the uses of
the immigration bureau. In so much
