How to Fight the Flies.

Flies are responsible for tho
spread of contagious and infee-
tious diseases. They adhere to
window panes, dishes and other
perpendicular surfaces by means
of minute globules of oil, and
often their oily footprints are
GERM LADEN. Flies should
be excluded from sickrooms.
They carry filth germs in, and
they carry disease germs out.
Food supplies should be particu-
larly guarded. The same flies
that are attracted to the food on
the table and are so especially
fond Of milk likewise delight In
filth, even OF the most danger
Gus kinds, which they are sure
to carry around with them on
their feet. Fly maggots live and
grow in manure and filth, and
mature flies hover about the
same material to lay their eggs
and seek bits Of food. Cleanli-
ness about the kitchen and back
yard, screen doors, window
screens, fly paper and fly poi
sons are the housekeepers' prin-
cipal weapons In warfare against
flies.

Drink Plenty of Pure Water.


DR.. George II. Fox, the
distinguished authority on
skin diseases, says that such
troubles in summer are caus-
ed almost invariably by
WRONG DIET and that they
as well as many other dis
orders of the system may Of
ten be cured by simply exer-
cising more and eating less.
He lays great stress upon
the value of pure water as a
remedy. Drink it freely"
he says, EXCEPT DURING
MEALS and the hour preccd-
ing and following"
He dwells with emphasis
upon the value of change of
diet when one is not well.
He says it is often worth
more than a change of air.

j. Means Much.

For many years time, morey and
many lives have been wasted or lost in
trying to find tie North and the South
pole. Old people remember the famous
Franklyn expedition and his loss.
Now it is claimed a Brooklyn man
named Cook has reached the North
Pole. And two questions are now be-
ing asked all over the world?
"How does a person know when
he's there?
"Why spend so much money and risl
of life to get there?
"Scien'ifs tell that the mariner who
finds his latitude in the northern hem
isphere to be 90 degrees krows he can
be nowhere else than at the North
pole. To anyone standing there the
sun rises and sets only once year
six months daylight, six months night,
mitigated only a little twilight at the
beginning and end of a period of aw
full gloom, broken by occasional moon
light or aurora"
''The North Pole is truly a unique
spot on the globe. Cook standing there
no matter which way he looked he fac
ed South. Which ever way he looked
he was more than 20 miles nearer the
center of the earth than if be stood 2 +
the equator. Half Of the stars he could
never sec; the other half never went
below his horizon and be visabIe the
whole six months of night. The pole
star stood directly over his head.
There is still much to learn of tides,
currents and the ocean. Now that the
way is found many will follow and ex-
plore that 400 miles of long unknown
world.
