The police of Cincinnati state that
there are two lovers in that city who
have been engaged to be married for
the last fifteen years. This postpone
ment of the Hateful plunge, however,
is not due to the prospective bride
groom being laggard in love; still
less is it due to the bride proving un-
duly coy. The simple explanation is
that no time has occurred during the
above period when they were both out

torn to shreds by the scientists these
days. The insect has been proved to

which enters the body through the
