Andre. Kustnnoby remembers who put
It there, but does not any. The other
was the work of a celebroicd local

Mysterious Feat of Rats.
Here's another mystery problem to
set beside that of how the Kgyptlnns
built the pyramids. G. V. Young
blood, a business mnn of No. VSi
South Broadway, Los Angeles, Is re
sponsible for it.
Yqjunghlood rein ted thnt on opening
bis office one morning he found thnt
rots bad chewe off the tops of car
nations which were standing In n glass
vase about 14 Inches high. Accord
ing to the real estate mnn, the rnts
did not move a chair next to the vase
and thus rench tbe succulent stems,
nor was there anything else near by
on which they might have stood. . And
he does net believe the rodents could
ave cllnibed the sides of the smooth
vase. Jltlll the flowers suffered heavily,
And to muliP the problem harder,
Yotmgblood said thnt 'i e rats, ,dls
plnylng a, highly developed artistic
aense, carried roses from one desk to
another which lucked posies. How
did tbe rats accomplish their taskf
Ottera Cared For.
' A pnir;of fully developed otters have
been discovered In' a slough along the
Unindywlne, near West Chester, Pa.,
and have been watched with Interest
by many persons.
They are the only ones reported in
Chester, for probably 40 yenrs, and
are very 'carefully " protected by the
owner of the property where they
have made a den in a bank beside the
etill water.. (, ,
The animals are said to lie about
four feet In length and very active.

EDUCATION LAWS TOO LOOSE

of education laws affecting child hit or,

two wntll alxteen. One state reipilrea

the iHstrlct of Columbia until four
teen, and one slate require attendnnee
mull the age of twelve years, but
applies this to llllteralea only.

are so numerous that they greatly lim

ployment, or upon completion of a
sieclfled school grade. Four stale
specifically exempt for work In nurl-
cultural pursuits, three with no age pro-
Vision. Laws of fourteen other stales
contain loosely worded provisions ex
empting a child at any age, which
might be used to cover absence for
farm work aa well as for many other
purposes. Several states exempt a
child whose services are necessary for
the aifppurf of himself or others, with
out oiiy age or educational provision.
Tli! amount of attendnnee required
la atlll unsatisfactory In many states,
Severn I demanding only 1-, 11, or 'JO
weeks In a year. Kven In amies
where city children must attend for
eight or tiluo months, the amount of
attendance required In rural school
dlstrlcta Is sometimes considerably less.
HAD MIGHTY SUSPICIOUS LOOK
Washington Correspondent Tell Of

One of the most remnrknble things
al out men, be they of high or 'iw es

Tuke for Instance, that group of el
der statesmen In the I nlted Slates
Bonatc. Here la the trick they were
caiiKht playing on Sims, tbe old ncro
barber at the capltol, who has been
shaving them and their kind for forty
years.
Sims Is a preacher ond great Bibli
cal authority when he Is not shaving
senators. He Is profoundly religious.
He has confidence In his fellow.
So, when Senator Harry New of In
diana told Sims that he liad a presenf
for him, the venernble barber walked
Into the trap all unsuspecting.
The senator suld he wanted to be
stow his present In prlvnte. Hu and
Sims went liito nn anteroom. The sen
ator squatted down und Sims did like
wise. The scimtor took from his p ck
et a large-sized pair of dice and rolled
them out on the eupet. Sims watched,
At this moment n group of senn-
toi-s, In the plot with New, burst iuto
the room. There, apparently, were Sen
ator New and the old barber, despite
bis protestntlons of religion, shooting
craps. The statesmen were horrified.
An employee of the senate had been
caught gambling. Sims, of all men,
had gone wrong after forty yenrs;
Sims, whom they trusted Inipllclty. It
was a case that called for drastic ac
tion. Philadelphia Public Ledger.
