A FLY DON'T.

The agitation concerning the house. fly as a menace to health has led to the publication of a series of "Donts" for the reading world, and the first one is--
 Don't let the fly get into the housel"
 This is most important, for if he doesn't get into the house he cannot get into the butter, 1T the soup. or the milk, or the syrup. or walk over the hash, or the boiled dinner, or rhf. meats, or the vegetables, or rocst up- on the gas fixtures, or the curtains, and we are all cautioned mot to let the fly do this!"
 It is important that a recipe should be furnished to keep the fly out. ''Screenslp These work well when permanent, but in with every grocer's clerk and every errand boy, and ev- cry guest and every cat come a lot of flies. The fly is small, but "Ohl" If he had the avoirdupois of a mouse it would be different; but he hasn't. The fly an1 the zephyr glide in with equal facility when the screen door is opened for a second, or the window screen is out of place for a minute The fly is alert and numerous and if it was not for the fly nets and the fly traps and the fly papers which he is always foolish enough to patronize, it would be useless to talk about pro- tectioa. for those who know the fly Ere aware that he is too lively and domestic in his habits to Don't" as you would an animal or any other sort bf an enemy.
 Don't let the fly get into the housei"
 If any one can invent a way to keep him out he will lead all other Inventors The bald-headed man real fzes how much quicker than man a fly is. He is missed ten times to one hit. How can he be kept out of the house?

THE GOVERNORS VETO.

The veto by Governor Weeks Of the special bill which was intended to prohibit a tobacconist from holding office in New Haven. is exciting con- siderable comment in and out of the state.
 While the principle of debarring a tobacconist from being a police com missioner in New Haven is wrong, it is clear enough that the principle gen. orally applied in the state might be proper. There is no more reason why a tobacconist should not be a police commissioner in New Haven than in Norwich; and, yet, The Bulletin is of the opinion that there is good req son why a tobacconist should be de- barred the honor in all parts of the state.
 These two businesses are more closely allied than is usually thought, and their interests become common in a measure because of their trade re- lations. If judge is unftted to pre- side in a case because of self-interest, it is certain that the self-interest of the tohacconist in the saloon is such that he is almost as much disqualified for a police commissionership as a man would be who was known to be largely benefited by tie traffic.
 If this could be made the law of the state. The Bulletin is not sure that it would not be a law worthy of com u1endation.

GIVING AWAY MONEY.

The art of giving away money is perhaps greater than the art of ac- cumulating it. The late Russell Sage appears to have realized this, and have recognized that Mrs. Sage had the talent for distributing money for use- ful purposes more developed than he, and 10 her he left the task of dis tributing s65,000,000, a little over one third of which she has placed for the betterment of the people and has placed it well. It is estimated that in the same time that it took Russell Sage to accumulate 30 cents, Mrs. Sage is now regularly spending two dollars.
 There is no evidence that Mir. Sage made a mistake in estimating the ability of his wife to place his mil lions where they would do the most good, for it is generally conceded that the erdowments she has made show rare good sense On her part. It is said that Mrs. Sage has made an in- vestigation of workingmen's insurance abroad with a view of devoting sev- eral millions for such a purpose in this country. It is matter of record that she gave away many thousands while her husband was a living witness of her work, and that there is no record of an instance in which he disapproved of her judgment. He apparently en- joyed getting this great fortune to- gether and found comfort in the thought that he had a wife and ex- ecutor capable of placing it where it would do good for many ages.

CUTTING NEWSPAPER FILES.

Cutting newspaper files on the sly in the office of publication or a library is a crime-it resolves itself into a theft, besides being a damage to pri- vate property which cannot be re- paired
 A woman is suing the Cincinnati public library for s10.O00 damages be- cause she was arrested for this sort of vandalism by the authorities of the library, and while she admits her guilt she declares that she was so agitated by the contents of the article that she did not know what she was doing; or, in other words. was totally irrespon- sible, which is a weak defense for such an unwarranted and indefensible act

One evening last week young Walt cn-rather suddenly, it was remember ed later-left the circle gathered on the chilly veranda of the family hotel that houses his trunk, and started for the evening stroll that has become his habit.
 He swung diagonally across the lawn smoking vigorously and with the out ward appearance of man possessing no interior motive, no subtle design.
 It was nearly dark and the hedges of the hotel lawn loomed black as he passed them-so black, indeed, that just at the corner of the hedge, turn ing upon the sidewalk of the avenue, Walton stumbled. And at the same time there arose a weird wall of an- guish that drew the attention of the reople on the veranda to Walton's
 .irs cat Walton muttered to himself, watching a gleam of yellow flash under the rays of the lamp. And it's for all the world like the Hortons cat. Wonder if they've lost it?"
 Now the Hortons had but recently acquired a Persian cat, orange as to back, answered to the fantastic name of Comet. Only the night before Walton had heard for the twentieth tlne just how much Mrs. Horton thought of Comet, how unusual Com cts coat was and how he was never allowed to walk abroad alone so posi- tive was his owner that some lurking thief would carry off her far-famed pet.
 His mind filled with Mrs Horton's present grief and future joy should he bring to her the lost Comet. Walt Cn bounded after he cat calling in his n ost seductive tones Finally he won the confidence of the wanderer. Un- doubtedly the cat answered to his name-a fact that Mrs. Horton had impressed upon Walton. Comet had never been called "kitty"---tfat name forever attached to his short haired brethren. It must be Comet-he was orange, his eyes a deer copper, his tail waving plume of orange fur.
 After a few minutes manoeuvrering Walton was speeding back to the ho- tel with a purring bundle in his arms. He would telephone the Hortons and then take over the cat and restore him to the arms of his fond owner.
 May I ask if you know whose cat that is, MT. Walton?" came in sweet ly suspicious tones from the top of

Some would say the best way to turn an optimist into pessimist would be to feed him the doughnuts. and this would be true if the doughnuts are fried in lard. Lard is certainly indi- gestible and many people are deprived ofs the pleasure of eating doughnuts and other dainties just because of this fact. However. there is cooking fat -COTTOLENE-wh can be used in any way and every way that lard can, and yet makes light, rich. delicious can digest with ease.
