TO HxTeRMINATR THE MOSQUITO.
Drainage Of Still, Shallow Pools the Best
Way TO Get Rid Of the Pests.

In no State has there been such a
persistent and intelligent war waged
ON the mosquito as in New Jersey.
The demonstration of the fact that the
mosquito plague exists only when
there is still shallow water, explained
at once New Jerseys fruitfulness in
mosquito breeding and pointed out
the remedy for the mosquito eyil.
The marsh is the Wholesale hatchery
of mosquitoes, and New Jersey abound
in marshes. The long, fiat meadows
are hard to drain. Gathering the
water into currentless bitches would
do no good, but the Hackensack mead
ows, which have been furnishing New
ark, Elizabeth and Jersey City with
mosquitoes since time out of mind, is
not now yielding its usual supply. The
meadows have been ditched with long,
deep machine dug bitches. Many
miles of these bitches have been dug,
making network all over the meadows,
draining the surface Ond emptying all
the ponds. The bitches connect with
the tidal waters of the bay and are
flushed twice day. The water in the
bitches is therefore not stagnant and
the mosquitoes, whose larvae thrive
only in still water, find no breeding
place.
Staten Island has many charms as a
place of residence which were Offset by
the plague of mosquitoes and the ma
laria which one variety of mosquitoes
made permanent Summer condition
of life on Staten Island. This, we are
told, has been changed by the expira-
tlon Of mosquito breeding places on
Staten Island. The mosquito and the
malaria have departed together. In
and around New Orleans, where
mosquitoes are the host of yellow fever,
the fight against those insects contin-
ues with unrelenting vigilance all the
year round. 1t is big job to keep
mosquitoes from finding shallow water
in fiat, low country, subject to fire.
quent rains and overflow, but eternal
vigilance is the price of health and
life, and through vigilance yellow
fever and malaria can be abolished
everywhere.

town Exposition Is Greatest Yet.


town Exposition Is Greatest Yet.
NORFOLK, Va, A.,-Siatesmen, soldiers
and philosophers who have visited all
the great ExpositiOns of the world
unite in the opinion that in architectu-
raj and natural beauty the jamestown
show has never had its parallel. But
it remained for Governor Edwin War
field of Maryland to gracefully state
the truth and nothing but the truth on
the occasion of the Baltimore Day cele-
bratiOn at the Exposition June 27. The
Governors remarks along this line
were as follows; 81 visited the Cen
tennial in Philadelphia in 1876, the
Columbia Exposition in Chicago in
1898, and the st. Louis Fair in 1904,
and u can say without exaggeration
that the jamestown is superior to them
all, from any standpoint. The archi-
lecture and natural beauty of the Ex-
position is without a parallel AS far
as the charges of extortion that have
been made against the restaurants and
other interests here are concerned. I
will say that they are without truth,
for I have Investigated for myself I
had party of friends to dinner here
and the bill surprised me. 1 would
have willingly paid that much for the
music which went with the dinner.
Because the Government pier is not
finished you should not blame these
patriotic people for it. In few weeks
this spot will mark the most beautiful
Exposition that America has ever
known.

Huge Hat Pms Worn.

Hat pins are used quite as much for
decoration this season as for keeping
headgear in place. and. as a result. are
large and deliberately made. For they
are stuck in portions OF hats not other
wise trimmed, hence the necessity OF
having them big enough 10 take the
place OF rOsette or bow.
These pins in jet. amber and in the
bright Nari-colored china that so many
young women are affecting now, set OF
a hat TO advantage. and give a nea
tailored appearance that is not possible
with either ribbon or VelFets.
The immense size of these pins makes
them striking in appearance for a knob
that Is an inch in diameter or an amber
top one inch square stuck in a WomaTss
hat is unusual and naturally attracts
attention
The tops OF most OF these large pins
are made in conservative shapes. such
pieces. and are easy to push through a

carefully, being careful not 10 break

Do Not Use Colored Powders on Nails.
Tinted cosmetic powders should be
used on the nails very sparingly. for
they not only give the fingers an arti-

too often contain injurious chemicals.
Too much polishing makes the nails
thick and destroys their delicacy. A
little polishing powder may be used
once or twice a week. and light rub
