KILLING MOSQUITOES BY THE
MILLION.

The decision of the Z. 5. War
Department to retain the troops at
New Orleans during the present
outbreak of fever is direct and con-
vincing testimony of the efficacy OF
the mosquito treatment as applied
TO the one time dreaded scOurge.
The experiments of Surgeons Reed,
Guiteras, Carroll, Gorgas, Carter,
Finlav of the U. s. Marine Hospit-
al and several eminent scientists
Of Central America have demon
strated beyond the question OF a
doubt that to the agency of the
Stegomyia or striped daylight mos
quito. breeding in cisterns and
clear stagnant water, is due the
yellow fever. The education of
the people of the South to this fact
will speedily remove the threat OF
ouarantines as at present carried
on and restore the general conf
dence in the ability of simple meth;
DDS to stamp out fever when it is
brought into any OF the Southern
states. The story OF Major Reed :
experiments in Cuba reads like a
novel, yet these experiments have
convinced medical authorities the
world over as to the wonderful
truth and complete revolution OF
the theory and prevention of vel.
low fever. Meanwhile the author
tiles, aided by the citizens are ex.
terminating the mosquito at New
Orleans in a wonderfully rapid
manner. The report of DR.. Reed
is published on our first page.

WHAT THE KIDNEYS DO.
Their Unccasing Work Keeps Us Strong
And Healthy.

All the blood in the body passes
through the kidneys once every
three minutes. The kidneys filter
the blood. They work night and
day. When healthy they remove
about 500 grains of impure matter
daily, when unhealthy some part
of this impure matter IS left in the
blood. This brings Oh many dis
eases and symtoms-pain in the
back, headache, nervousness, hot,
dry skin, rheumatism, govt, gravel,
disorders of the eyesight and hear
ing, dizziness, irregular heart, de-
bility, drowsincss, dropsy, deposits
in the urine, etc. But if YOU keep
the filters right you will have no
trouble with your kidneys.
C. K. Page, real estate and in
suranCe agent, OF Corpus Christi,
Texas, says: Mr.. wife thinks a
great deal of Doan's Kidney Pills
and says they relieved the dull
aching pain i'll her back which had
given her onJ:11o~oble annoyance
for over year. They also correct
ed the action of the kidney secre-
tons (which had been rather irreg-
ular. Knowing this to be a fact
I have no hesitation in endorsing
this remedy, and trust it may be
the means of helping others SINH
larry afflicted"

Brownsville people. Call at Put
egnat & Bros drug store and ask
what their customers report.

Household Hints.

To clean a clothes wringer
quickly saturate a cloth in coal oil
and rub the rollers.
Salt in the oven under baking
tins will prevent pastry scorching
on the bottom.
Machine grease can be removed
from garments by washing the
spots in cold rainwater and soap.
Dust the top of sponge cake
with powdered sugar just before
putting it into the oven. 1t will
form a delicious crust.
Peach stains arc very difficult to
remove by tho usual methods, but
they will disappear as if by magic
if soaked in spirits of camphor
before using water.
Before you put oil cloth OF your
table, cover it with cloth we'll
tackled under the edges. 1t will
save wear on the edges and corners.
Stains on knife handles may
generally be removed by rubbing
them for a few moments with
damp cloth dipped in kitchen salt.
Put coal oil in the water you use
to wash windows. 1t makes them
much easier TO clean and leaves
them bright and clear.

An extraordinary case is report
ed OF a girl, born at Wertheim-on-
the Main in 1880, who, as the
resultof Hines, when s years old,
lost the use of every member ex-
cept her tongue By dint of long
practice she finally was able to eat,
write and even sew by means of
her tongue alone. She took up
the end of cotton with her lips,
and, with a dexterous turn OF the
tongue. made knot in the end.
She cut out dolls clothes manip-
ulsted an easy cutting pair of
scissors with her lips, while to
thread the needle she stuck it into
the table with her lips. and with
tongue and lips pressed the thread
through the eye with perfect ease.

ped upon the carpet, throw upon
it an equal. amount of salt and
sweep up altogether. There will
be scarcely a trace of it left.
Potatoes will bake more quickly
if a pan of hot water is placed in
the oven with them. Boil your
potatoes 10 minutes, drain the
water off, and place them in the
oven for 20 minutes and they will
be found very good.
Milk will Immediately and eff
fectually extinguish the flames
from gasoline or any form Of pc
troleum, since it forms an emul-
sion with the oil, whereas water
only spreads it.
We all know what a musty smell
a teapot has that is only used oc-
casionally. but do we all know
there will be none of that if the
teapot is thoroughly dried after
using and a lump or two of white
sugar placed therein before putting
aside for future use?
Only a few people know that
butter will remove tea, coffee or
fruit stains. 1t should be rubbed
OH the linen or cotton and then
the material should Re soaked in
hot water and a mild soap. In
fact, any stain, except ink or
wine yields to this treatment.
To renovate thin, black mater
ials, such as nousseline de sole,
cover the ironing board with old
black cloth and lay the mousseline
fiat upon It, pinning it i'll place.
Lay over 1t piece OF black lawn
or cambria that has been wrung
out of gum arabic water, and a
dry cloth over this, then iron with
a hot iron. The mousseline will
be crisp and fresh like new goods.
If your window shades do not
look fresh and you don't feel able
to buy new ones, take them off
the rollers and lay them full length
on the floor and wipe both sides
with a soft cloth. Cut off the old
hem and tack this end to the
roller, hemming the fresh end,
aud YOU vii he surprised to see
how well they look.

Back of the coming home of the
body of John Paul Jones, to rest in the
crypt of our new Naval Academy, lies
the story of General Horace Porter's
six years. quest, impeded by many OBJ
stacleS, successful at last, with over.
whelming evidence in favor of the
Identification of the body. The full
story of this research General Porter
tells for the first time in the October
Century. "Upon assuming charge OF
our embassy in Paris and finding my
self among the old landmarks which
are still honored there as recalling
the many historic incidents in the So
journ of Paul Jones in that brilliant
capital" says General Porter, II felt
a deep sense of humiliation as an
American citizen in realizing that our
first and most fascinating naval hero
had been lying for more than centu-
ry in an unknown and forgotten grave
and that no successful attempt had
ever been made to recover his remains
and give them appropriate sepulture
in the land upon whose history he had
shed so much luster." Among the
illustrations Of the article is one show
ing the face of the recovered body,
compared with the Houdon bust.

A WATER SUPPLY FOR NEW
TOWN.
A NEW SOURCE OF WATER FOUND.

A NEW SOURCE OF WATER FOUND.
1t has been demonstrated that it is
an engineering possibility to bring
water TO Newtown Street from pond
on land of John L. Hughes. w. A.
Leonard and L. c. Morris have secured
lease of the necessary land and
rights, and if the parties having the
charter lying idle cooperate, there is
10 doubt the long-sought object will
be attained. Nothing is needed more
in this town to boom it as summer
resort than a public water service, and
The BEE hopes this pleasing result
may be accomplished. The proposed
dam will be 60 feet higher than the
base of the liberty pole in Newtown
Street.
