FLlEs.-These annoying insects are un.
usually abundant this season, and are ex
ceedingly troublesome both to man and
beast. The purpose for which they were
created is involved in some doubt, but we
are assured on high medical authority that
when flies are plenty, sickness is scarce
This is some consolation, at least, and if il
be true, the present season will be entirely
free from epiJemics.
Speaking OF flies, wa see that some genius
has taken advantage of the chronological
swarms, by introducing an exceedingly vi.
cous paper, upon which, when the flies
ulight. their feet adhrre as firmly as though
held in minute vice. The paper is smear
ed with mixture of nut oil and molasses
applied when hot. When the sheet is fold
ed the paper becomes perfectly portable
Each sheet will entrap couple Of thousant
flies for let the insect but touch it ever 81
slightly, he sticks to the paper like pol
itician to the habit Of lying. The paper i
tor appears to be doing brisk business.
