In 1'ome and also in London the owm rs of tats pay a man a ct rtani sum of money monthly, and every day he walks through the streets uttering a peculiar cry. All cats know him and come from all directions to get their dinner. lie is called "the eats' meat man." Cats have always been highly valued in Wales. They are kept about granaries to catch rats. In the olrl days anybody stealing one of these cats had to give for her a shoop or a lamb. Should the oat chance to be killed she was Ij^ng up by the tail until her head pouched the floor and wheat poured over her until the tip of her tail was covered. All this wheat the tiiief had to give to the cat's owner. The I'r.ited States government keeps more than .100 cats in the po.-tollice department to guard the mails front rats and mice. Before the-e eats were employed valuable letters were often destroyed. The-e pussies are well fed. .$40 a year being allowed for each cat's meat. The Japanese frighten away the;: mice and rats with china cats. These are made so lifelike that when a candle is placed inside the figures the mice imagine them to bt real cats and run for their lives. Brooklyn Eagle. The End of the Earth.
