A Suggestion ol'n Mount Triiif-Klt'oct
ol'Plnying I'limo on Rodents.
Truth of London suggests that ns
mice like music there Is an Independent
fortune nwultlpg the man who will in
vent a small music box which when
wound .will run all night, since such a.
contrivance would servo to call mice
Into traps and would be to the mice
what a decoy Is to a Hock of ilucus, or
a looking gluss to a tiger. After tills
suggestion, which Is not untrue to na
tuie, Truth went on to say that music
thut sounds out of kilter to a critic's
ears would also drive mice from tho
house. If the Truth writer lind even ac
tually seen a mouse under the Influence
of music he would never have made that
mistake. Neither would he have said,
"an accordion would also make the
nglle rodent desert the house ns he is
said to desert the sinking ship."
Whether music affects rats is a ques
lon not yet settled by students of nut
uial history.
As to the actual doings of a mouse
when listening to music it has been
observed that the playing of a piano,
even the tutu-tum of a beginner learn
ing his first tune, will cause mice of
the common llouse variety to run up
and down behind the plaster of a house,
causing It to rattle In a way fit to dis
turb the most earnest student. One
night half a dozen persons were gath
ered In the parlor of an Adirondack
home, listening to a, skilled player,
who, as a woodsman said, "could make
a planner talk," when It was observed
that the mice were acting in an un
usual manner. The ordinary conduct
of mice when they hear piano music
is to merely rattle the plaster, but on
this night they squeaked and squealed
and rattled the plaster as they never
done before. The rush of the rodents

does it profit a
U I.
man to heap up riches if in doine; so he
ruins his health nnd his capacity for the
enjoyment of wealth. There is no such
thing as happiness without health. All
the gold in the world will not make ti
man happy, who feels in his veins and
sees in the reflection of his own face, the
slow but sure advance of man's deadliest
enemy, consumption.
If a man will but take the right care ol
himself and the right remedy he ma
protect himself against this relentless
enemy. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery is not only a sure preventive,
but an absolute cure for consumption. It
cures 93 per cent, of all cases. It acts,
through the blood, directly on the lungs.
It drives out all disease germs and im

and flesh-builder. All wasting disease!
yield promptly to its action. Thousands
have testified to its merits. Druggists
sell it.
