It is simply an ordinary spread for a
rat. In pointing out methods for the
extermination of Mr. Rodent, the
1'nlted States Public Health Service
suggests that the feast in question would
prove n good bait if sprinkled with a
little poison, for dessert.
In view, of the high cost of breath

be willing to stand for such a meal,
omitting the dessert, and feci well satis

By wav of dessert the health sen ice

The United Business Men's Aocin
Hon today will try, through City So
licitor Connelly, to obtain an injunction
restraining the Rapid Transit Co. from
removing its tracks on Passyunk ave
nue cast of Sixteenth street.
When the company about a year ngo
announced its purpose to lift the tracks
business men petitioned the Public
Service Commission. When the com
mission ruled the company had the right
to move the tracks an appeal was taken
to the State Supreme Court, which sev
eral days ago sustained the commission.
The latest move vvas made yesterday
when Select Councilman Trainer, Thiid
