to;ltim alive) on the premises—a pre-
caution to prevent sharp practice on
'the part of the youth. After two or
- three days little Benjamin came to
old Benjamin and asked him to step
out ipto the barn. Se did so, and
was conducted to a big disused molas-
ses barrel' that stood in the middle of
the barn floor, and aske : to look in
it, And there, on the bottom, was a
wriggling mass of rats three or four
feet deep, atruggliog vainly to get
out of the barrel.
' My gorry i' exclaimed the old
gentleman, ',Where did you, get:all
the rats ?'
ss-s'—÷Calight—leniheie in the old barn,

How many be they?'
Eighty. That't just forty dollars,
gran'sir.'
• Forty dollars ! Why, I ain't goin'
to pay you all that money.' -
` Ain't you? Didn't you agree to,
Gran'sir ?'
'Well, yes, but I hadn't no idee
when I did, that you'd catch such a
tarnation lot.'
The boy looked up. There was a
rope dangling down from the beam
above that was used to help in climb-
ing up the hayloft. Benny pulled
himself up hand over hand on this
rope until he hung suspended over
the barrel.
' Ain't you goin' to give me that
i rty dollars you agreed to, gran'sir?'
said the boy.
`
Never!' said the old man, looking
over again into the barrel with its
squirming mass of rats.
' Well then, here goes!' said the
boy. With a lively kick of his foot he
upset the barrel in the direction of
his grandfather. The multitude of
rats poured out around the old man's
feet. He leaped wildly bp and down
in terror, and sprang through the
mass to a ladder that stood near Then
he ran up the ladder with an agility
that he bad not equalled for fifty
years. And the rats resumed posses-
sion of the premises.
