when the latter started to leave the
house Otto picked up a rifle and de-
liberately fred a bullet at his head.
The bullet grazed the mans forehead,
but beyond rendering him unconscious
for time did not inhict serious
injury.
When he regained consciousness
Christian notified the neighbors OF
what had happened and was then
brought to New Ulm to be looked after
by a physician. To the doctor and
others he stated that he had in no.
wise provoked the quarrel and was
entirely blameless in the alteration
which led up to his brothers. rash an6

A Sure Method ofKeepmg Flies OH;
Don't Let Them Get tn the House
The Pesky Insects Also Carry a
: Large Variety Of Diseases
with Them.

NIT these germs, and that some of them
find their way into food .and drink,
causing sickness. Scientists of all coulS-
tries agree that 1ies not only carry dis
case germs in their bodies, but also
upon their feet They are readily at
tracted by filth. which they devour as
quickly as anything else, SO common
dccency would sugges the reason for
keeping them away FROM food.
1t is highly ilnportant that flies
should he excluded from sick rooms
for II has been clearly DEMONSTRATED that
they carry the bacillus9of tuberculosis
in their bodies after being in a con-
sumptiye's room. They are also active
in the distributing of typhoid germs.
Not long ago the Merchants Associa-
ton of New York determined to find
out just how dangerous flies we're
along these lines. Fly cages were
placed In all parts of the city. AT un-
sanitary points flies swarmed and
when, captured and examined were
found in some instances to carry thou
sands of microbes on a single foot. In
healthier localities fewer flies were no.
ticed, and were found to be almost
clean and practically harmless. 1t is
stated that this harmless insect an
nua1ly causes $50 deaths from typhoid
and 1000 from other intestinal diseases
in New York.
Put your screens in early.
Use sanitary garbage pals.
Leave no food exposed between
meals.
Darker your kitchen when not work
ing in it.
Simple rules, these. but they insure a
joyous. fyless existence.
