Germans Give Warnings Against Keep
the Fruit in Dwellings.

Germany has found a peril in apples.
They are the principal medium for the
propagation and spread of the destructive
house moth CGlycyphagus domest.cus) ac-
cording to observations recently made.
The discovery was the result OF a plague
of moths at Cries and the villages sur
rounding Il, The larvae were traced to
the stores OF apples kept in the houses and
thence TO the trees themselves.
The larvae are found first OF all In the
apple blossoms. AS the fruit grows they
cluster in the conical depression about the
stem OF the apple.
When the fruit is taken into the house II
is laden with the eggs. The propagation
of the eggs IS said to be prodigious.
When the fruit Is taken into the house
the eggs And their way into clothing,
hangings. carpets and upholstered furni-
ture and the insect Is Matched put, with
the well known fu.nous results. The eggs
are also said TO b. the cause OF the white
nothing that Is SO often noticed on dried
fruit.
AS a result OF the discoveries II is urged
apples never be taken into dwellings
without careful cleansing. and even then
they should never be kept In living rooms,
and the Feelings should be promptly re.
moved.

The following simple homemade
mixture is said to readily relieve and
overcome any form or Rheumatism by
forcing the Kidneys to filter from the
blood and system all the uric acid and
poisonous waste matter, relieving at
once such symptoms as backache, weak
kidneys and bladder and blood dis
eases.
Try 1t, as 1t doesn't cost much to
make, and is said to be absolutely
harmless to the stomach.
Get the following harmless ingredi.
ents from any good pharmacy: Fluid
Extract Dandelion, one-half ounce;
Compound Kargon, one ounce; Com
pound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three ounces.
Mix by shaking well in a bottle, and
take a teaspoonful after each meal and
again at bedtime.
This simple mixture Is said to give
prompt relief. and there are very few
cases Of Rheumatism and Kidney trou-
bles it will fail to cure permanently.
These are all harmless, everyday
drugs, and your druggist should keep
them in the prescription department; If
not, have him order for you, rather
than fail to use this, If you are af.
ficted.

this: Mamma, let's have toast and
