question that engaged the attention
OF party Of prominent local men
in New Orleans. It was finally de-
cided that Dr.. Juan Guiteras, who
appeared at that time, should be
asked for his opinion. DR.. Cutie
'ras answered the question that the
.others could not answer. Ste
gomyia is a Greek word meaning
house fly, and fasciata Is a Latin
word meaning with stripes, was
the Interpretation of DR.. Guiteras,
and he explained tina; the name was
given by an English doctor several
years ago. As a rule scientists de-
sire to avoid hybred combinations,
bat this combination Of Greek and
Latin is one of the several that has
crept in.
The words 'stegomyia fasciata''
then means striped house fiy," the
word stegomyia being pronounced
ste-gom- -yia, with the emphasis on
the second syllable.

FUMIdATIoN DIRECTIONS.



The following directions for prop
er fumigation were prepared by DR.,
IT. H. White, the Marine Hospit.
al Surgeon in charge OF the fever
fight in New Orleans and approved
by DR.. A. L. Metz and DIR. Juan
Guiteras.
/ Realizing that II the mosquito Is
to be destroyed the work of fumi-
cation must be we'll done, we have
formulated the following instruc-
tions for the guidance of the pub
lie:
1. Remove all ornaments Of met
al, such as Brass. copper, silver and
gilt from the room that Is to be fu-
migated. All objects Of a metallic
nature which can not be removed
can be protected by covering the
object tightly with paper, or with
thin coating of vaseline applied
with brush.
2. Remove from the room to be
fumigated all fabric material after
thorough shaking. Open all draw
ers and doors of furniture and clos.
cts.
3. The room should be closed
and made as tight as possible by
stopping all openings in chimneys,
floor, walls, keyholes, and cracks
near windows and doors.
4. Crevices can be closed by past
ing strips of paper Gold newspapers)
over them with a paste made of
-four.
S. After the room has been pre-
pared roi sulphur or flowers of sui
phur should be burned in the room,
one pound to every 500 cubic feet
of air space, or about six pounds to
an ordinary room.
6. The sulphur should be placed
n an iron pot, fat skillet preferred,
Ind this placed on bricks in a tub
'r other convenient water recep-
n the bottom. This is a precau-
ion which must be taken to guard
against accidents, as the sulphur is
liable to boil over and set FIRE to the
rouse.
7. The sulphur is readily ignited
~ sprinkling alcohol over it and
lighting it.
8. The apartment should be kept
,losed for two hours, and then
opened up and we'll ventilated.
Note-To find the cubic contents
If the room, multiply the length of
he room by the width, and this to-
al by the height, and to find the
amount Of sulphur necessary to fu-
nigate the room divide the cubic
contents by 500. and the result will
De the amount Of sulphur required
n pounds.
Take, for example, a room IS
feet long 10 feet wide and 10 feet
high. we would multiply I5xIoxIo,
equals 1900 feet. Divide this by
500 and you have the amount Of
required, viz 3 pounds.

An All Around Evil.

Chairman Prouty of the interstate
commerce commission is reported rs
having said, In addressing the whole
sale lumbermen recently, that In the
case of an exorbitant railroad rate,
II is not the shipper who pays the
penalty, but the consumer, to whom
the wholesaler passes along this ex-
ira exaeton by the railroad; and that
$50 1t is when the thing complained
of is a discrimination between individ-
uals or localities"
The Boston Transcript insists that
the real injustice of discrimination in
rates by railroads is to shippers and
localities, since it shuts out those un-
favored from the market, through
their being unable to sell at the same
prices as their favored competitors;
and that uniformity is more important
than the rate itself.
The object of the present move
ment toward the federal regulation Of
railroad rates should primarily be to
release industrial competition which
is being restricted by rate discrimina-
ton among railroads; but the result NJ
the establishment of equal and honest
conditions for competition will not
only be a benefit to the unfavoreI
shippers and to trade conditions gen.
orally, but will relieve the consumer
as well. Trade control in the hands
of few is sure to result in high pric-
es which, in the case of necessities, the |
consumer must pay or suffer depriva-
ton. BY combining to fix a uniform
exorbitant rate, the railroads may also /
Cypress the public, having the whole
carrying trade in their grasp.
The federal supervision of corpora
lions and the prevention of discrimina-
ton in rates by railroads should there
fore be common public cause for eff
fort, from the source of the evil III
the way down to the consumer. Rate
discrimination is an evil even to the
corporations which practice it for it
is an unjust use of power which must
eventually result in loss of power.
Following the reasoning of the adj
minstration in it's course with the
SISTER republics" then, the public will {
be doing a beneflcent duty by the |
corporations it, through its govern s
ment, it insists on peace only with |
justice. t

Gov. Douglass success in ending
the Fall River strike was due to his
good character and business ability
The opposing factions recognized his
fitness to decide for them. They had
confidence both in his honesty and
fairness and in his knowledge of bust
ness conditions, and were thus willing
to accept his arbitration of their
troubles. In this country we often cry
out against the undue power of money
and position; but here is an import
ant matter in which neither could
have figured for settlement, straight

A correspondent of the New York
Times suggests, along the line of
forest preservation, the raising of
osiers, or young willow shoots, for
the manufacture of hampers in which
to ship goods. He says the willows
are easily cultivated on swamp land,
yield profitable crops and their use
would not only greatly reduce the
consumption of lumber, but give en-
ployment to waste land. He declares
that the forestry question is of great
er importance TO the country's flu
ture than the tariff or Mormonism.
His suggestion seems good. Why not
test its practicability on some of our
idle swamp lands?

New York city magistrates have de-

New York city magistrates have de-
cided that there is enough difference
between the "drunks" and other
criminals brought before them TO
warrant separation of the two class
es and the application of different
methods for the correction of the
evils they represent and for the pro-
lection of the public. They have
learned to regard drunkenness as more
| of a disease than a crime and they
have prepared a bill for the legislature
which provides that separate institu-
tons, more hospitals than jails and
managed by physicians, shall be erect
ed for the confinement and care Of
drunkards. In these institutions
chronic and incurable cases will be
permanently confined and the treat
ment of the others will be toward
correction of physical conditions rath-
er than the inhiction of punishment.
This bill shows still further advance
in the public understanding of human
conditions and needs, since the days |
when all persons dangerous to public |
welfare were held in common restraint
with no consideration for their per-
sonal misfortunes or possibilities. The
bill may not become
aw this year, but the principles in
spring it are humane and just and
will soon be generally recognized and

The supreme court of New York, IN

The supreme court of New York, IN
a recent decision, classes the drug
gist who knowingly sells a wife NOR
phine until she becomes ''fiend"
with the man who induces wife to
leave her husband, as far as legal
responsibility to the husband Is con-
cerned. Both men are technically
guilty of alternating the wifes affec-
tions, society and help from the hus-
band and the latter may recover dam
ages in either case. This extension
of a legal principle may as logically
be made to cover other cases where
either husband or wife is deprived of
rights. Why not in case
of drunkenness, gambling, or other
vices?

Druggist George E. Greene gives
the following advice to those who

of value to everybody in Brattleboro.
The quickest, surest and safest
way for thin people to gain flesh is
to take Vfnol, our cod liver oil prep
aration, and the reason that Vinol is
so far superior to anything else to
create flesh and strength is because
it does actually contain all of the
medicinal, curative elements actually
taken from genuine fresh Gods livers,
which no other cod liver oil prepara-
ton does. and being without oil or
grease to upset the stomach and re-
tard its work 1t is a great improve
ment over old-fashioned cod liver oil
and emulsions.
Prominent physicians agree that
this new cod liver oil preparation

builder. flesh creator and strength
producer on the market. They pre-
scribe 1t for their patients who are

beneficial way, enabling Il to obtain

DR.. Caverly, president of the state
to Vermont papers concerning the
report that he recently ordered the
suppression of news relating to con-
tagious diseases in Rutland. He ex-
plains that his suggestion to the
Rutland health officer was merely
that addresses of afflicted families
be withheld from the papers, SUCH
publication being unnecessary, inju-
rious to the sick and inimical to the
health laws. He emphasizes, how
ever, the wisdom of prompt reports
by health officers to the papers of
the presence of epidemic disease,
facts about its nature, origin, and
dissemination and the number Of
cases; and declares that publicity in
the way of authentic general news
of this character will invariably help
to stamp out a contagious disease.
The exaggerated conception which
DIR. Caverly's action in this matter is
evidently due to the resentment of
Rutland reporters who objected to
having any details cut out of their
items. The addresses of the families
afflicted with contagious diseases /
may be legitimate newspaper matter.
but the health board of any locality
has undoubtedly a right to withhold
them if its best service to the public /
seems to demand it
