They select the lower river marsh lands as their dwelling place, and there they build their homes. location is preferred which is flooded at high tide, but which is clear of water at low ebb; and every creek and al- most every little inlet to the river af- fords innymerable positions that are fa- vorable. After determining upon the exact position of their house the rats burrow leads, or miniature tunnels trom the water's edge at low tide tothe spot upon which the honse is to be erected. They then set about collect- ing material for their dwelling. Tho tall canes and coarse marsh grass are cut down and pulled in place, and the marsh mud is used as a kind of mortar. A large circular foundation is laid, and the ground floor arranged on a level with the leads. This completed, an upward lead is made like a spiral stairway to the sec- ond floor, which is made into a room similar to the first, but of less circum- ference. A fhird and sometimes a fourth floor is built with the spiral lead running from the level of the marsh to the top of the house, each succeeding room being of somewhat less diameter, ap to the roof or dome, which acts as a water-shed. The height of each floor from the level of the marsh is regu- tated by the successive heights reached by the tide, the top floor being always higher than the highest watermark at flood tide. Don't Decetve the Children, When the children are ill, don't tell them that the medicine is “nice” when you know it is pesitively nauseous ; do not induce them to swallow the dose under the pretence that it is “good.” Children never forget white lies of this sort, and their confidence, once shaken, cever regains firmness. Better by far tell them the simple truth, that it is lisagreeable, but necessary to their health, and you desire'them to take it and at once. Ten to one they will swallow it with half the trouble of ‘coaxing and worry of words, and love .| you better for your firm, decided man- | ner. Don’t teach the children by ex- ‘ample to tell white lies to each other and to their neighbors. ‘Guard your | lips and bridle your tongue, if you de- ‘sive to bave the coming generation 1 cepting them.
