'cNo, thank you. my dear, do not want
any fly papers or fly traps about my
house. learned a great many years ago
that the more things we have to call flies
the more will come. In the neighbor-
hood where flies were simply a nuisance
/ lived almost unmolested by them be-
cause never permitted a particle of stale
food to accumulate about the premises.
Flies, like good many other things, will
never stay where they are in danger Of
starvation, and 1 never kept anything
about the place to feed them with, not
even fly paper. Everything that could
not be burned was carried as far from
the house as possible and buried. All gar
bage is valuable as a fertilizer, and /
utilize it as such. 1t is my opinion that
every form of fly paper, fly poison and
trap which is baited with any substance
is just so much inducement for them to
stay around the house. They think-if
flies can think at all-that they are going
to get something to eat and therefore
hang around. The best fly preventive is
starvation"

1t is not alone in America that BARRIERS
show extraordinary persistence and in
genuity in pressing their wares upon
customers. An American who has been
travelling in France relates that in Paris
the barber who was shaving him stepped
two or three times upon the side of his
foot.
At last the customer called out:

a corn"

Hard wood working has attained a
beauty and perfection that would have
surprised the cabinet makers of few
years ago. America has advanced this
industry by the invention Of machinery
which almost works marvels. An auto
matically working machine that makes
holes for blind mailing in hard wood
floors and does it perfectly is one of the
late inventions. Another machine has
been devised which takes rough board
for hard wood flooring, planes it on both
sides at the same time, matches it and
turns out smooth surface finished at
the top, bottom and sides.

IT may be worth while to remember
that large number of the 200 banking in
situations that have suspended payment
during the last six months were not in
solvent, but were simply unable to rea-
lize on their collaterals in time to save
themselves from being forced into
liquidation, as was the case with the
Denver banks. runs on these banks, "
says Bradstreet's, "were uncalled for"
By-and-by, after the scare shall have
fully subsidized, it will probably be found
that more than half of the "runs" were
not justified by the actual condition of
the banks, and that the runners might
have Jared better if they refrained from
their sudden demands for a return of
