INGENUITY OF THE RAT.
The Triteness Courier publishes the following curious rat story, supplied to it by Mr A. Maccuaig, teacher, Archanacarry:— " As I was sitting in my room quiety reading, two rats made their appearance, and directed their course to a potato that was on the floor. One of them stretched himself on his back on the floor, placed the potato on his chest, and kept it firmly there with his paws, whereupon his companion placed his tail in the former's mouth, and dragged him along to a hole in the floor. There they let down the potato, and followed after it themselves, and disappeared. "
