eReAI YEAR Foa MosouIToEs.
Is's the Female Birds That Make All the
Trouble. Says One Expert

'sMosonitoes? Well, should say 80"
exclaimed genial Captain Veazey Of the
steamer Enoch Pratt. BE had been asked
IL this was a good season for the birds.
why. there are billions Of them down
in the tidewater counties Of Maryland
and Virginia We caught it at Deals
island recently. There was land breeze,
and the mosquitoes swarmed about the
boat. Every one was lean and hungry
and seemed TO want a square meal, and
from the way we felt when we got away
they must have got it. They are bad
in Somerset. I've got farm four miles
from Princess Anne and wanted to go
up and see if my wheat had been har-
vested properly, but was afraid of the
mosquitoes. haven't been yet"
Just why the mosquitoes are so nu-
merous this year no one seems to know.
A great many persons attribute the in
crease to the warm, wet spring, while
others say the mosquitoes are just like
peaches-aftert two or three years in which
they are comparatively scarce there win
be tremendous crop. This was the view
taken by party Of steamboat men who
sat on one of the wharves along Light
street yesterday and grumbled about the
hot weather. A mosquito which had just
arrived on one of the bay boats landed on
the neck of one of the party and was get
ting his or rather her dinner when she
was killed by vicious swipe of her vic
tim. There's another 'skeeter' done
for" remarked the murderer, with salts
faction. "He won't bother anybody else
in this yere vale O tears"
"She, not he" corrected another.
Don't you know that he 'skeeter' new
er bothers anybody It's the females
that make all the trouble in this world,
and that applies to 'skeeters' just the same
as it does to women. If all 'skeeters'
we're hes we wouldn't have any trouble
from them, Just the same as if all human
beings were men we'd have things more
quiet and peacefulhke. A he 'skeeter'
doesn't live long. Go down along the
water in the spring and you viii see bill
lions and billions of them, 'woolly heads
we call them. But you can get right in
among them and have them so thick
around you that you can't see through
them, and you viii not be bitten. They
only live long enough to provide for the
next seasons crops, and then they die,
leaving the she 'skeeters' to make man
kind miserable till cold weather comes"

A Pinch of Dust.

The dangers that lurk unseen in the
air form the subject of an essay by M.
de Nansouty on 1.-The Atmosphere of
Large Towns and Micrography. He
points out the increased pollution of the
air in Paris from the factories worked
by steam machinery and remarks that
vapors which contain sulphur are spe-
cially disastrous TO the lungs, since the
sulphur which they contain is trans
formed into sulphurous acid and then
into sulphuric acid, which falls back to
the earth with the rain and fog. An
analysis of dust particles reveals that a
remarkable collection of diverse objects
may be absorbed at every breath in the
street Of a large city--silex, chalk, plas-
ter, pulverized rock, charcoal, hairs.
hbers, vegetable refuse, starch, pollen
cells, etc. A specimen of dust collected
from furniture ON the third floor of a
street in Rennes contained all this and
nearly 5000, 900 bacteria in addition. A
gram OF dust (about 10 grains) in move
ment in the streets incloses about $780,
900 bacteria. The dust of houses, then.
Is far more dangerous. NJ de Nansouty

The Laxative Gum Drop.

This new cathartic is the most
delightful form of a laxative that
has ever been offered to the public.
1t is in the form of an ordinary gum
drop, but it has no medicinal taste,
and it can be eaten like u piece of
confectionery. The results, too, are
pleasant. 1t is the most complete
remedy for dyspepsia. summer trou.
bles, billiousness, headache and all
those maladies for which the Ordi-
nary catEartic is prescribed. 1t
acts as II gentle stimulant, not vi0-
lent, but perfectly safe and certain.
In this respect it is far superior to
the ordinary pill, with the addition
al merit of not being disagreeable
to take. 1t is just the thing for
children ON this account and for
people with weak stomachs. These
gum drops are put out in packages,
the small ones selling for Zoe. and
the large ones for 25c. Jf your.
druggist does not have them we
will send them to you by mail on
receipt of the price. But we would
prefer to have you get them of
your druggist.

asked no questions, but waited for
time to explain the mystery Of things.
This was the season of the midnight
sun, and with continuous daylight we
could make our start ut any time The
change of the early morning watch was
the most convenient time, and at four
o'clock the st,arboard quarter boat was
lowered away, and with four strong
men at the oars our whale boat was
soon gliding swiftly toward the head of
the port with the long, steady pull OF
sailors on whaling vessel. 1t was
several miles up, but under the steady
stroke of the oars we were soon on the
river and assembled it two or three
milcS
Ungurula was in charge of the expe-
dition, and ut his word we landed ut IL
FORK in the river and hauled the boat
we'll up on the beach. We then walked
about one hundred feet up the smaller
stream 10 a spot where the water was
quite shallow.
Such n sight Us we saw there is be-
yond description. We had seen what
seemed like millions of fish as we came
up the river. But here the water was
fairly alive with them. 1t seemed as
though the fish would fairly push each
other out of the water in their struggle
to 20 upstream. Literally the water
was struggling mass of salmon of all
sizes
There was nothing poetic or effusive
about Ungurula. The sight was an
old story to him, and he was too in
tenscly practical to have anything in
mind beyond the capture # thirty
He took of his boots, stockings and
trousers; then, with the mysterious
board in hand, began the fishing. 1t
was very evident we were to have a de-
gree OF fshcrman's luck that would
mako any fisherman's heart burst with
gladness. But the question in mind
was: How was 1t to be done?
Ungurula soon explained it. Walk
ing out into the stream to n depth of
about three feet he raised the board
high in the air-the surface with the
bristling array of spike points down
then, with u quick, muscular swing,
slnpping it on the water with all the
strength his two arms could command.

| jcrked it with downward movement
in toward the shore, and as he drew it
out of the water upon the sand he
brought with it four big king salmon
that had been securely spiked.
The mystery of the tackle was ex.
planned. With such living stream OF
fish it was question of only few
minutes to catch our requisite supply OF
thirty fish. The water was icy cold;
but the guide was toughened to this
manner of fishing and after the last
catch of fish was secured restored the
circulation of his legs by vigorous rub.
bing, and was apparently none the
worse for his BATH
This was the most successful fishing
trip and the most novel way OF catch
ing fish that l had ever known. We
might have kept up the work for hours
and made no apparent diminution ii
the number of fish. But we had all we
could we'll use, so returned with the
catch to the boat, showed off, anc
reached our ship under the glow of the
midnightsnn justas eight bells sounded
