ease, the mosquitoes and flies
are the most dangerous enemies of man.
The MOSQUITO with It's bite injects into our

troubles. The hy. with spongy feet, collects
the invisible germs Of diseases, spreads

Next Door TO New Hotel.

The friends OF Senator Elkins tell
story which they declare illustrates the
opposition to the senator in his state on
account of his attitude on the tax ques-
ton, which was made the chief issue of
the last political campaign IN that state.
The Watson House is one of the we'll
known hostelries of the state. On one
occasion there came to the hotel a farmer
who proposed to the proprietor the sale
of carload of frogs.
"A carload OF Frogs exclaimed the
proprietor. What in the world would /
do with carload of frogs?''
The man said they were good to eat
and he had carload he could deliver at
anv time, Finally the proprietor agreed
to take a bushel of the delicacies. and
the farmer went away to fill the requi-
sition.
A couple of days later the man return
ed with small bundle wrapped up in
his handkerchief He went to the coun-
ter and united the corners of the hand
kerchief. There were three pairs OF
frogs legs.
II thought you told me you had a car
load of frogs to sell2' said the proprietor.
Well, replied the farmer, hesitating.
Iii you'd heard them frogs you'd a
thought there was carload of them.

The friends Of the West Virginia sen
ator declare that story illustrates the con-
dltion in the state so far as opposition to
Mr.. Elkins is concerned They say his
opponents make lot of noise. but when
the time comes to count them they fall
