The FoiIer Fooled.

Recently one young man bet another
that he could not break an egg placed
on the floor OF their room by hitting 1t
with n barrel. The second young man
promptly took the bet.
Thereupon the first young man care
fully placed an egg in corner Of the
room, just where the walls made a
right angle. so that 1t was impossible
for the other to hit the egg with an
ordinary barrel.
Then the first young man proceeded
to gloat.
But the other suddenly produced a
revolver and broke the egg by tapping
1t smartly with the barrel Of the weap-
on. Then he demanded the money.
There was quite dispute naturally.
Finally the two agreed to submit the
question to the editor of sporting pa
per. In due time the answer came.

mediate attention. 1t Is stated that
the presence of the physician at the
time was all that kept Cubbison from
bleeding to death. Blood was spilled
all over the sidewalk and the street.
Cubbison after being cared for by the
physician was taken to the Emergency
hospital on east Center street in the
Hess and lMarkert ambulance. Here
Drs McMurray, Rhu and Taylor
worked with him for several hours.
The cash in the neck was several in
ches long, quite deep and severed the
carotid artery. The patient was ter
ribly weak from loss of blood and
the end was not unexpected at any
time. He showed a remarkably vital
ity and rallied somewhat a few hours
later. It was found necessary TO
reopen the wound last night after
which the patient appeared to have
some slight chance for recovery.
Today Cubbison is in semi-con-
scious state. There Is probably a
slight chance that he will be able TO
overcome the loss OF blood and the
shock. At times he talks freely or

THE HARMLESS HOUSE FLY
CHANGES REPUTATION

CHANGES REPUTATION.
The house fly, that perfectly harm
less little pest, is with US again. He
arrived the other day when we all
had begun to think summer had slip
ped by unnoticed. All of his family
came with him too, bag and baggage,
and they have taken rooms for the
heated season with various families
over the city.
Until this season we have always
greeted the fly and his sons and
daughters and his grace-that is his
whole set of ancestors and descend
ants-with some warmth. While we
have not been delighted to see him
with us again yet the very sight Of
him at first has made us feel that
summer is here. And this year there
was no change in that feeling. For
moment the fly brought sensations
OF pleasure for we knew him to be
an unmistakable barometer of what's
doing among the weather. But sad
TO relate other things had come up
since last the house fly was with
us. Another thing might be better,
meaning science.
Did you know that science had de-

that is the very thing science has
done. Lately science has come to
the conclusion that the common house
fly Is the direct cause of more sick
ness aud death than any other one
cause. BY variety of tests and ex-
periments science has discovered that
the fly, each fly, carries anywhere
from several hundred to several mil
lion germs. The little pest has these

making foot tracks in your butter

them on to you. He is constantly
