PHILIPPINE WOMEN IN
ON LINER; PUFF CIGARS
iqorrote Passengers on the Frlesland
Amuse onlookers by Fondness
for Smokes-Are Coming
Here to "ShoW"

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. ct cre-
ated quite stir in the Belleyue-Strat-
ford one night about three weeks ago
when the Princess Wilma LWoH Far
laghly, then visitor in this city,
smoked a cigarette after luncheon IN
the presence of many society women.
EVERY one was exclaiming, "Shocking!
1t was different yesterday when a
half dozen Igorrote women, directly
from the Philippine islands, walked
down the gangplank of the F'riesland
and into the immigration station pull
ting incessantlv on black cigars. 1t
was a different company OF onlookers,
of course, and many wished they mad
a few of those cigars to smoke. For,
on the way across the Atlahtlc, tne
Igorrotes were selling them at 16 cents
apiece.
These six women were members OF
hand of fourteen Philippine natives who
have come. to America to depict the VII
Iage life in the Philippines. They will
90 to Allentown, where they Will con-
duct a show known as THE Phlllpplne
Village" Later they will travel in the
west, and throughout the coming WIN
ter they will be in Philadelphia.
They come from section of the ISL
ands where trial marriage Is in vogue.
There are two pairs in the group who
have been married after they had spent
about a year looking each other over.
"Happy!" blurted the guide, when he
was asked how the scheme works out.
'Why, you couldn't make those Igor
rotes unhappy unless you'd cut off the
tobacco supply See 'em smoke" he
laughed. "They keep a-pulling on
cigars almost day and night, and 1t
doesn't kill 'em either"
one of the number has passed her
sixtieth year. "And she hits the pipe
as the guide put it, harder than any
of 'em"

GOVERNMENT AGENTS
WAR ON MOSQUITOES
Officer of Public Health Service Pub
fishes Warning and Tells How
to XIII the Little
Pests

WASHINGTON, Sept. Cdr. Joseph
Goldberger of the public health and
marine hospital service writes learn
edly for the service of the great neces-
sity for the prevention and destruction
of mosquitoes. He considers it pub
lie and patriotic duty to .ge unceas-
ing warfare on these pests that the
annoyance and discomfort caused by
them may be diminished and the dan
ger of disease conveyance reduced to
minimum.
DR.. Goldberger gives the classification
of mosquitoes, speaking of the marsh
mosquito, the Lnopheles, or malaria
disseminating bird, and what he calls
the domestic animals, the Stegomyia
calopus, the ones that prefer their
homes close around human habitations,
so that their feed may cost them as
little as possible, and make unneces-
sary visits to the mosquito grocery
store. The Stegomyia mosquito breed
their young nearly anywhere they can
find a little stagnant water. 1t may be
in an old tomato can, piece OF broken
cro3kery, flower pot, bucket, tub, sag
ging roof cutters or nearly anywhere a
small bit Of water has collected.
DR.. Goldberger says that most of the
females Of this variety have found 1t
or animal blood for the full develop
ment of their eggs, which are deposited
in the receptacles named, and which
in the course of nine or ten days, be-
come full-hedged mosquitoes, prepared
to follow the same pursuits as the
mothers and fathers. The proper food
of mosquitoes consists of vegetable
| juices, but the preference for human
blood has become mighty strong with
some of the species. It Is in biting hu-
| manity that the mosquito not only con-
veys disease, but fills up on the blood
necessary for propagation.
The MOSQUITO never goes more tnan
half mile from his home until blown
away from his own bailiwick by strong
winds. Consequently the destruction or
the pests around a house frequently
puts a stop to the number OF operative
| animals.
DR.. Goldberger recommends measures
directed against the larva and pupa OF
the insects.
The adult mosquito is pretty hard to
get rid of unless he can be cornered
and put out of business with sulphur or
other preparations, but the breeding
places may be attacked and the young
killed before they have developed.
Where mosquitoes may be confined, or
where they have overrun bedrooms,
three remedies are offered-su1phur d.
oxide. caused by burning sulphur in the
air; pvrethrum powder and phenol-
camphor. Sulphur. however, corrodes
metals, bleaches and rots fabrics, ETC.,
and care has to be taken In its use. 1t
may be burned in pots. Pyrethrum
powder is somewhat costly, merely
stuns the mosquitoes, which must be
swept up and burned afterward. The
same Is somewhat true Of phenol-cam-
phor. It is used more in times of cpl
denies, like yellow fever, than pyretn-
rum.
To kill the young mosquitoes, in their
preliminary stages, plain kerosene oil
must be sprinkled in the stagnant wa
ter of the breeding places. If well
covered with kerosene the young mos
quito cannot breathe and Is soon put
| out of business.
