A Much Dreaded Fly.

Thu man eating fly Of Central Amer.
lea inhabits the low lying coast re-
gions and 10 much dreaded by the ma
lives for the fearful results which fol-
low its sting. Naturalists call it Lu-
ella hominivora. The average speci-
men is about a third Of an inch long.
1t has a big head, with the eyes on
top. Its cheeks r a golden yellow,
its abdomen dark blue with purple
bands, its legs black, it's wings unusu-
ally big, and they produce a continuous
and loud buzzing when in motion.
The person bitten by this fly gets a
disease called myiasis. It generally
begins with an itching Of the nose;
then that organ swells and bleeds, next
It becomes liberated, and in these ul-
GERS may be found the larvae of the fly.
The whole face becomes swollen; cry
sipelas sets in, followed by meningitis
and death. One nan l knew, said a
traveller in that country, shot himself
after he had been bitten rather than
face the tortures he knew were GER
tain. Cure is difficult. Simultaneous
Injections Of chloroform sometimes do
good, but as often fail. One man l
heard Of was cured by lemon juice in
jected into his blood.

Ten Years Ago and Now.

There is no better antidote for de-
spondency than to take a measure Of
your W community rs it was ten
years ago and as it is today, unless
you live in an unrepresentative and
stagnant community. You will be
likely to find the roads or the streets
better than they were, the railroad
service, the postal service, possibly
eve the telegraph and the telephone
service better. You will observe better
houses, more attractive grounds. The
people are better clad or more are well
clad. Inside their houses you will find
more books or, better, more bathrooms,
better lights and better furniture. A
larger proportion of children and youth
are receiving good training at better
schools. All this means nor than
prosperous years. It leans a higher
level of life and a stronger ambition.
The well being of the people Of the
United States is rising higher and es-
pecially is it diffusing itself wider.
Life is constantly becoming more COM
Portable and more cheerful as well as
longer and safer, leading to better o n
ditions for intellectual growth and So
cial Observation-Disclosures Work.

FOx's Wit.

The following is one of the man.
stories told about Charles James Fox,
the English statesman and orator:
Mr.. Hare, envoy to the court of Pc.
land, occupied rooms in the statesman's
''diggings." He was a great personal
friend and indeed a man of very sim
liar tastes. They were each the OBJ
jects Of continual inquiry on the part
Of tradesmen and others. One day
Fox, looking out of the upper window,
deserted two men watching the house
and waiting. With a genial smile, he
shouted, "Pray, gentlemen, will you tell
me, are you Fox hunting or Hare hunt
ing today?"
The bailiffs were SO tickled that they
went away.
