The House Fly.

Medical science is unearthing
many of the most prevalent and
fatal diseases that attack the
human family at stated periods.
1t has discovered that many
of these diseases have been con-
veyed by insects and the blood
inoculated with the germs of
disease by their sting and contact.
/ hus the mosquito has been dis
covered as the cause of yellow
fever, the germs being conveyed
by its sting. Following up this
important discovery, it is now
asserted that the house fly is the
promoter of typhoid.
This common domestic insect
is the most tantalizing, persistent
and annoying invader of every
home. Nothing whatever Is I'M
mune from his visitation. He
is the most filthy of all winged
insects. His breeding places are
In the stables, heaps of ii tn and
every kind of decayed matter.
His favorite habitat is the most
nauseating heap of filth he can
find. Yet none the less will he
alight on the vlands of the fam
lily meal and particularly any
thing sweet.
Thus he transfers the particles
of the most disgusting filth from
their resting places to the cake,
sugar and sweetmeats on the
table. Necessarily he transmits
dangerous germs into the food
consumed and the drinks imbibed.
1t has been discovered that he
is the incubator of the germs OF
typhoid and other dangerous
complaints that are the most
prevalent during the season
when he is most numerous.
1t is now proposed to inaugu.
rate war of determination
against the house fly and Danish
his annoying presence. As he l;
active during the hours of day,
light, 1t would seem that he could
more easily he exterminated thar
the mosquitoes, yet the latter
have been comparatively easil.
destroyed. We opine that there
are few housewives who will no
willingly and eagerly join in an.
crusade for the wholesale de
structlon of the pestiferous AM
annoying house fly.
