WAYFARER'S NOTEBOOK
MosnnIioes Wers nntmIited

Since it has been demonstrated that the
mosquito carries disease germs in its bill.
many persons are timid when they hear
the buzz of the dangerous incubator.
During the summer months a weli-knOwn
East Side man adopted a novel method
of Kidding his sleeping apartment of the
Jersey stingers. He had been worried
night after night by ;he solos and duets
of the pestiferous insects, and frequently
was awakened from "A good sleep to
scratch his wrists and hands, which
seemed to be favorite hunting grounds
for the biters. He tried coal oil in a can
lid. fastened to the top of a broom handle
and managed in that way to entrap some
of the fellows on the ceiling, but others
came and took the places of their COM
rades in wings. Then his knowledge of
natural history came into play. He
knew that the common devils needle, dr
dragon fly. just grows stout on mosquito
steaks, and so, going out to a pond near
/ the city, he caught four of the dragons
and carefully brought them home in a
pasteboard box. The rest of the trick
was easy. With fine silken threads tied
about their bodies he suspended the dra-
: gonhies from the ceiling, giving each fly
swing enough to make a radius of sew
eral feet. 1t seemed like a pastime TO
them to dart after the mosquitoes. while
! the man slept as peacefully as a clear
conscience would permit Next season
= he is going TO repeat the experiment, but
will start earlier.

The Man Who Won

He kept his soul unspOtted
AS he went upon his way,
And he tried to do some service
For Gods people day by day:
He had time to cheer The doubter
Who complained that home was
dead;
He mad time to help the cripple
When the way was rough ahead:
He had time TO guard the orphan. and
one day, well satisfied
With the talents God had given him he
closed his eyes and died.
He had time to see the beauty
That the Lord spread all around;
He had time to hear the music
In the shells the children found;
He had time 10 keep repeating
As he bravely worked away;
1T is splendid to be living
In the splendid world to-day"
But the crowds-the crowds that hurry
After golden prizes-said
That he never had succeeded.
i When the clods lay DER his head
Il He had dreamed-"He was a failure.
they compassionately sighed.
For the man had little money in hi
pockets when he died.

A newspaper is supposed TO publish

that which is important and is occur

Impressions just as surely as it will

There are rumOrs Of a prevalence of
smallpox throughout the seaboard
cities but the public is not informed
OF the details with that particularly
given to other matters. There are cer-
tain precautions which people may
take to avoid contagion and they are
entitled to know the true situation.
II is a fact THAT uhle disease is wide
spread In Philadelphia there are
many cases, and disinfectants are in
evidence almost everywhere The pa
pers of that city are silent on the sub
iect. but we learn from physicians that
there are SO many cases that there is
much concern. To THE south Of us. the
same condition prevails. The press OF
Baltimore is silent on the subject. but
the physicians report a spread OF the
disease. In lower Delaware IL has also
been located. while there is Qdaran-
time against IL al the Government post
at Delaware City.
SO farWilmington has been fortunate;
as far as we can learn, there have been
but two cases. The danger lies, not SO
much in oontagion from these. since
They are under strict quarantine as in
contamination from other places to the
North and the South Wilmington is
on The direct line of travel, and, there
fore, unless every precaution rs exer
cised, danger is to be feared.
