How TO Get Rid of Flies.

Ten or fifteen cents worth Of
"Quassia Chips" to be had at any
drug store, will rid house of flies
for an entire season. Cover the bot.
tom Of plate or tin lid with the
chips. Cover with water and add a
little molasses or sugar. Place near
the window, The same chips can be
used over and over again by adding
water from time to time. The flies
are very fond of this sweeteued quas
sis water and the least sip is fatal to
them and they usually die within a
foot or two Of the plate. For stores,
groceries, meat shops, etc., there is
nothing to equal this. Quassia chips
are not poisonous to men, women,
children or anything except flies

! 1ue 81 Augustine heCOlu says
After a stay Of two days here get
ting out printed matter for his cam
paign, Mr. Claude L'E1gle will start
Immediately on a tour OF the State in
behalf Of his candidacy for the Uuitea
States Senate. He has decided to
oppose Senator Talliaferro and will
spend the next several months stump.
ing tie State.
In discussing his campaign with a
Record representative he said be in
tenls to demonstrate to the satisfac-
ton Of the people Of Florida that a
poor man can run in a primary. He
starts from Pensacola on a railroad
tour OF the State ard will spend 2
1-2 months travelling by rail, dlstribu-
ting his literature and meeting as
many voters as possible. He expects
to follow the railroad trip with an
automobile tour, or rather with three
automobile tours OF tue State, cover
ing 5000 miles in the auto. He Wis.
tied several auto manufacturers re-
Gently while North, and arranged
with one concern to supply him with
an automobile and machinist for this
trip absolutely free Of charge, his only
expense being subsistence for the
mechanic and the fuel consumed by
the auto. The manufacturer expects
to be repaid by the advertising the
machine will receive from the novel
trip, Mr.. L'Engle stated that he
would start at the Florida line in the
vicinity Of PeEsacola in the auto on
October 1st and intends to spend
six months on the road, travelling
day and night as the occasion de-
mands. He will carry literature in
the car with him and will distribute
the same wherever be finds a voter.
lie intends to dash into towns and
run the machine to the most conspic-
uous spots, thereby having a big ad-
vantage over the speakers who will
be anchored to stationary platforms.
He contends that the machine will at
tract the crowds wherever it stops
and his audience will assemble with
out expense to him. He has figured
that he will travel fifty miles a day
and will have ample time for his treb-
lie tour Of the State.
He will stop at farm houses and
make the acquaintance Of every voter,
practically making house to house
campaign in the country, presumably
kissing the babies and winning the
parents to his political views. He
intends to tack up his campaign liter
ature himself, thus saving another
big item of expense.
Mr.. LEngle is known from one
end Of Florida to the other and he
has many admirers among certain
factions. He is energetic and origi-
nal and his candidacy will inject
some ginger INTO the campaign.
