Real Cause Of Badness.

Coming in from East Liberty on a
train were two men who apparently
were old friends and who met IN
a jovial mood Both men were quite
gray, but each had a luxuriant head
OF hair. Near them sat a stout par
ty with a shining dome that was
almost destitute Of hirsute covering.
The two friends exchanged face
tious remarks about silyered locks,
then INDUCED in some pleasantries
about the thinning of the thatch,"
with casual references to doorknobs
and billiard balls, much to the amuse'
ment OF the passengers, but to the
evident discontinue of the bald-head'
ed man.
The talk finally developed into an
argument on the cause OF badness
and after considerable POPULARITY the
pair turned TO the participated strang-
err and one said:
my friend and have been discus
sing the cause of badness, but we
can't seem to agree. Would you mind
telling us what you regard as the
real cause OF ibaldness?"
The stranger wheeled about; eyed
his questioners iercely and snorted:

Hatch, Jr., of New York, came here
recently to confer with DR.. Joseph "
Porter state Commissioners OF Health,
in regard TO the starting OF the fly
war. and the latter has issued rules
with instructions for dealing with
the fly nuisance.
Posters depicting in vivid illustra-
lions the filthy habits of the house
fiy and its procliylties for gathering
and disseminating disease germs are
being scattered broadcast throughout
the state. The warm weather this
spring has started the ny on his ramp
age earlier than usual. and the &C.
tivity on the part OF the health Of
ficlals is timely. Atlanta will take up
the warfare, for. as Clark Howell, OF
"The Atlanta Constitution" asserts,
Atlanta will be made the cleanest
and most healthful city In the South"
Savannah has also entered the fight;
the feeling there is strong against the
fly and It's dirty habits. A district
known as Sandy Park" Is to have
its name changed out OF dlsrespect
for the fly.
A vigorous campaign against the
fly has also been begun In Louisiana
under the leadership OF Mrs. Bernard
Titche, OF New Orleans. A code OF
responsibility has been established In
household affairs, and the housekeep-
CT who is known to permit fly to
become n member of the family Is
put in the same category as one who
harbors other notorious insects which
all good housekeepers abhor. AS a
part of the general campaign against
flies, DR. w. c. Woodward, health OF
ficer of Washington, will cause the
prosecution OF stable keepers who
fail TO register at his Office. The OBJ
ject OF the registration rule Is TO In
sure the supervision OF the stables
by sanitary inspectors, who will en-
force measures to prevent the breed
ing of flies in manure pits. At Ashe-
vile, n. c., a set OF rules has been
formulated and put In operation. In
fact, all the Southern states are up
in arms against this dangerous lit
tie pest and the line of battle will
advance northward as the tempera-
ture rises and the flies begin to breed.
The mode OF warfare will be TO de-
stroy their breeding places.

star organization which included Miss

made without hesitation to the leading
woman of the company, a capacity In
which Miss Marie Drofnah will again
appear. Miss Drofnah's illness last sea-

the stage, and there is no doubt of the
heaTtiness of the welcome that awaits
her return to this city. But there is
still another character, scant in its ap-

humor; with few scenes in the play. yet
with a strong individuality that brings
him constantly to remembrance, Auto
lycus. as constituencies as Falstaff and
as witty as Mercutio. a very prince of

the plot. it is a study unto itself. a
study of human quality made in the
