Mrs. Miner, Of Garner, Called Home
by False Telegram.

Algona, Sept 11.-Mrs. c. o. Min
er, living near Garner, visiting rela-
tives here, was startled by receiving
telegram saying, "Come home at once
if you would see your oldest son
alive" In great anxiety the lady i'm
mediately hired an auto to convey her
to Garner as soon as possible. What
was her amazement when she arrived
home to find that her household were
all in their usual health and had no
knowledge Of any telegram or cause
for her sudden appearance. The mes
sage was signed by Mrs. Miners hus-
band but the gentleman knew Moth
ing about it nor had any hand in send
ing the same.
Who the party was that sent the
telegram or what was the motive for
doing so has thus far remained a mys-
tery.

TOLL TO NEPTUNE
HUMAN LIFE is THE COST OF
NAVAL EFFICIENCY.
Officers Declare Accidents Unavoid.
able II Men and Ships Are to
Be Kept UP to the Proper
Standard.

Within recent months there have
been serious accidents to naval YES
sells belonging to several nations. Al
though they have been due to q va
riety Of differing. causes. they may be
divided, broadly speaking, into two
classes: due to errors in maneuver-
Ing, resulting in collisions, and those
due to explosions in the ammunition
stores.
Naval officers say that such acct
dents are merely SO many manifesto
tons of fate; that a sailor takes
chances when he goes to sea, and that
once in while he is bound to have
chance against him.

1T is not fair to ascribe accidents
such as those which have visited the
English men-o'-war to neglect Of duty,
in any way or fashion," said an officer.
And when you say psychological infiu-
ence, you mean, in effect, that they

not so, I am sure. A. man who goes to

XIII the House Fly.

The fly transmits typhoid through its
feet. 1t can carry thousands of bacilli
on each foot, and II it lights on food
and the food is eaten disease is apt
to follow. The fly does not wipe his
feet. and there is no use In trying to
train him to do so. The only resource
is to get rid of him entirely. All
careful housekeepers have their win
dows and doors screened. but this Is
valuable largely as a matter Of com
fort; 1t does not so to the root oil
the trouble. The flies infest butcher
shops and grocery stores. and we shall
never be immune until We attack the
fly as an enemy of society.
