The Busy Little Fly.

That busy little insect, the common
house fly. which lights first on NTH
and carrion and then comes buZzing in
at the door or window to light in your
cream pitcher or on your butter or
travel contentedly about in your sugar
bowl. has been found out by scientists
and stands condemned before all the
world as more dangerous than a mad
dog, worse than poisonous reptile and
more to be dreaded than the burglar or
the Black Hand. DR.. L. o. Howard.
acknowledgement for the United
States is leading crusade against the
pest and seeks the cooperation of the
people.
The health authorities of New York
attribute half the thousands of deaths,
from typhoid fever, to the busy little
house fly. Examination has disclosed
that when the summer begins there are
from $50 to $500 bacteria on each fly
and that, as the summer advances. the
number increases to such degree that
!, 222, $50 have been found on one body
during the latter part of August. 1t
has been suggested, in all seriousness
and with the best interests of the pub
lie in mind, that the house fly be here
after called the typhoid" fly.
AS an exchange remarks, 1T does
seem wonderful that. in view of the
widespread mischief for which the
housefy is responsible, it should be
tolerated in civilized communities, es-
pecially as it is comparatively easy
to prevent propagation"

VOICES OF THE PRESS.
Fighting the Pure Food Act.
cleveland Plain Dealer.)

Whatever the courts may decide to
against the government by the users
of preservatives in food, the sympa-
thies of the public will be with those
no with those who have made con-
sistent effort to uphold and make eff
fective the pure food act. This act was
one of the bits of constructive reform
accomplished by the last administra-
ton. Fortunately, the agricultural de-
partment was under the direction of
men who looked upon the public well
fare as of paramount Importance and
who, accordingly, used energy and per-
sistency in enforcing the law.
Such law was, of course, certain to
arouse antagonisms among people who
had thrived for years by curing the
food of the people, because the new
regulation meant greater expense and
smaller profit to them. War against
the department and the government
has been almost constant since the
act took effect. 1t is to the credit of
such ment as Secretary Wilson and
Chemist Wiley that they were not
their opponents. but stayed by their
guns and fought for the general health.
OF the merits of the particular case
now before the supreme court of the
District of Columbia no opinion can
be expressed. But any effort to nullify
the pure food act or cripple it's eff
cheney should and would be generally
resented.

this most pleasing of Swiss towns and
ride on until the dinner hour. So there
we We're on that sunny afternoon rid
ing along the shore of Lake Thun,
then on to ZweiSimmen where we
changed our smoke begrimmed steam
car for one of the trains of that badly
constructed electric railway. UP and
down we went, no engine casting SCOT
upon us, and the cars were as clean as
ones own parlor The car made many
curves on the steep mountain side be-
fore it at last descended to MontreuX
where it left us at six o'clock. Ac-
cording to custom we left my mother
and Auntie in charge of the luggage
and the two of us started out in search
of hotel. We noticed that if we didn't
present ourselves at a hotel armed
with lot of suitcases, that the price
was more apt to be moderate, as we
were not the inevitable prey of the
proprietor, it being very easy matter
to go to some neighboring hotel. We
generally found the prices perfectly
satisfactory and often one hotel man
ager would give us the name of a good
hotel in the next place where we were
going In Montreux we chose the
Hotel de la Paix as the very name
seemed to invite rest. The porter as
sured us that he could find our people
and our luggage, and true enough in
few minutes he was back with our
astonished relatives who didn't know
just where they were going, but who
were determined to follow their be-
longings at any cost.
Mein Host of the Hotel de la PaiX
was most cordial, and accompanied us
himself the next morning to the sta
ton where we again took one of those
agreeable electric cars. We passed the
immortal castle of Chillou, but we did
MT care to descend into the dungeon
and see the pillar to which the pris-
oner was chained for so many years,
so we sped onward, up and up, on our
way to Chamonix. 1t was three o.
clock in the afternoon when we We're
approaching the place, but when we
arrived in Chamonix itself it was two
O'Clock only, for we were in France
and the time there was the same as
in Paris.
Here we were in Chamonix three
| thousand feet above sea level with
Mont Blanc boldly staring us in the
face. What a giant he is with his per-
petual snow cap. cleaned every night
by fresh fall of snow, so that it pre-
serves it's dazzling whiteness. To
quote from Lord Byron:
Mont Blanc is the monarch Of noun
tains;
They crowned him long ago
On throne of rocks in a robe of clouds
With a diadem of snow.
Around his waist are forests braced;
The avalanche in his hand:

Must pause for his command,

Moves onward day by day."

Before leaving the Jungfrau we

suddenly came to all of us to leave

by q number of servants similarly
armed. They did not dare enter any
dwelling; they camped out in the open
air in tents and kept up fires and
watches all night. The next day the
two travellers had ample opportunity of
becoming familiar with the supposed
brigands. as a number OF the lnhabl-
taRtS joined them near that famous
glacier the .Mer de Glace," in the
peaceful capacity of guides and porters.
Even after the journey of these two
Englishmen Mont Blanc was left free
to the crystal searchers and the cham-
los hunters, until NJ. de Saussure came
to ChamoniX in 1860 with the firm reso-
luton of climbing to the summit OF the
giant Many were the unsuccessful at
tempts of him and his guards until at
last Jacques Balmat discovered it. Al
most the first thing we saw on entering
ChamoniX was the statue which the
city in it's gratitude has erected to de
Saussure. Facing his beloved noun
tain de Saussure stands noby erect
with barred head, while at his side BAL
mat is excidedly pointing to the sum-
nit of the mountain.

A ReIiaious Awakening.

Last week committee of the
Friends church, after reviewing the
figures relating to the membership OF
the church from 1868 to the present day
reached the following conclusions:
/. That the Yearly Meeting has
neither lost nor gained by exchanges
with other Yearly Meetings;
2. That there has been steady loss
by deaths over births.
2 That there has been a somewhat
less uniform, but constant. gain by re-
quests over all discontinuances.
This reveals the fact that all the
relative gain for forty years has been
by drawing in members from the out
side community.
LAS for the Interpretation of these
facts, the judgment of the committee
is that the great loss, which for the
period covered by statistics, occurred
between 1885 and 1876, booming less
pronounced as we approach the pres
emf, was due principally to disoWn-
ments and emigration to the West.
With this should be coupled the fact
that the young people who remained
in the Yearly Meeting went, in many
cases to the cities, and failed to bring
up their children within the Society.
Every UNCONVENTIONAL conference held
in Maine this year has heard report
of practically the same tenor. 1t is the
same old story of loss of interest in
religious things through the removal
Of the people from the rural district,
where they went to church on the Sab
bath as much to meet and exchange
word of greeting with their fellow
townsmen as to worship, to the city,
where the sort of relief generally
sought is the quiet and peace of his
own horne after week spent in bump
ing elbows with the busy throng. We
are not inclined to be pessemistic. The
reports show a changed condition which
the churches must and will find a way
to meet. The people are not going to
the dogs. Changed conditions demand
changed methods, that is all. If the
churches haven't kept up, they have at
least walked up this year and the flu
ture looks brighter
