Starve House Flies.
THIS METHOD BEATS EVERY vARIET Y
OF FLY TRAP YET INVENTED.

From the New York Ledger.
"No, thank you, my dear. 1 do
not want any fly papers or fly traps
about my house. l learned a great
many years ago that the more things
we have to call flies the more will
come. In neighborhood where flies
were sim ply a nuisance lived almost
unmolested by them because l never
permitted particle Of stale food to
accumulate about the premises"
"Flies, like a good many other
things, will never stay where they are
in danger Of starvation, and l never
kept anything about the place to feed
them with, not even fly paper. Every.
thing that could not be burned was
carried as far from the house as posi-
BILE and buried. All garbage is valu-
able as a fertilizer, and l utilize it as
such.
''It is my opinion that every form
of fly paper, fly poison and fly trap,
which is baited with any substance, is
Just so much inducement for them to
stay around the house. They think
if flies think at all that they are going
to get something to eat, and, there
fore, hang around. The best fly pre-
ventive is starvation"

But Oh, not now my restless heart, not now
Not till lips vexing problems, patiently are
wrought,
Not till its many burdens all are lain aside
And evermore each fretting task is done.
Not till the imperous will with utmost hum
an might
Has strven to compass Heaven, and bring
its glores down.
To make a deathless pleasure ground of
changing earth,
Striyen, and failed, and found that failure
sweet
Not till this glowing fever ebbs to pulseless
calm,
And paints the throbbing brow pallid, pain.

Not till my toil-worn hands, lie folded, cold
and white,
And quiet rest my weary feet, their every
errand done.
Not till my e-tired spirit, freed from its
thrall Of clay,
Shall say to earth, good night! And when
the morning dawns,
The morn that never grows to noon, nor
wanes to night
And shall wake to all the wondrous match.

Wake in the likeness of my Saviour saved
redeemed.
Then shall my longing, waiting soul be salts

AT last, all satisfied Forever and forever

A WARNING TO GIRLS.

If there are any young ladies who
have received flattering offers to posi-.
tions in the Worlds Fair city, we ad-
wise them to read the following clip
ping from the Cleveland Leader care.
fully before accepting situation from
any unknown source:
"From many reliable sources come
grave warnings to girls and young
women who contemplate going to
Chicago this summer to secure en-
ployment and thus get a chance to
see the fair and make some money be-
sides. Scores Of the advertisements
which are inserted in many country
newspapers for help, promising light,
pleasant employment to young women
and girls, are the lures Of the procurer
and will doubtless drag many innocent
young persons into dens Of vice and
iniquity. 1t is true there is an abnor-
NAL demand for help in Chicago this
summer, but the young woman who
answers an advertisement and goes to
the city without having proof Of the
character of her employer is very apt
to step into pitfall. Every paper in
the country should hasten to publish a
warning. 1t is part of the duty of the
public press to protect as far as pos
sible the honest, we'll meaning working
girls of their communities, and 70 put
them on their guard against such a
fate.

Correspondence Of the Ledger.
LADDoNIA, NO., April 24.-This
is such gloomy, rainy day; no.
body comes, nobody goes. The
patter of the rain is not so musical
as after a hot July drouth, and the
little chicks, the garden and the
farm are watched with doubtful feel
ings. The merchants, from those
that handle the strong irons, plows
and chains, down to those who sell
"the fairy like nothings' of hats
and bonnets, r all wishing for
bright sunshine. Well it will come
by and by, all to be more appreci-
ated.
Miss Laura Clark, of Rush Hill,
yesterday visited her friend, Mrs.
Kate ". Avery, who is here from
Joliet, ILL.,, making a visit with
relatives.
We have had a phrenologist in
town, and many of the young men
have found out who they love and
who loves them. This scientist was
really more than a phrenologist, and
to some extent could tell how many
young ladies loved each of them the
color Of the ladies' hair and eyes,
also what occupation they should
follow. One gentleman is extremely
happy; he is to marry the girl he
loves, although he will leave many
ladies to mourn his absence in their
social circle, and blast heir hopes
forever; but such is life.
