avoid plague, eradicate tbe rata. This
can Ik done by making war on them

by "rat proofing" against them; that
is by ballding them oat An a result
Of the Chinatown plague epidemic to

Charlie Bennett, the noted .catcbeT of

It was a couxtant source of worry
to Mrs. Bennett to watch her busband
being made a target for tbe speed]
merchants of thirty v Tears ago. And
She fully realized the pressing aeces
sity of some kind of armor to prerent
tbe hot shot sent through by U^se j
sf?eedy slabmen from caving in a rib
or two which belonged to her better
balf
After ^mueli, deep thinking and con
