Uncle Sam Asks All to Swat the Fly

greatest disease propagator and the
carrier II more menacing and malig-
nant germs than all other creatures
put together.
This little, but potent, messenger Of
death wanders from the sick room,
from the filth of the garbage pail,
from the heaps of refuse Of all kinds
into the peaceful, happq homes of our
land, walks upon the butter, the meat,
the fruit, the sugar, takes a bath In
the milk, leaving everywhere the
germs of disease that have gathered
upon Its furry feet and body
In experiments conducted by tho
New YORK. health authorities the scien-
lists found on the body Of single lit
tie fly 1,222,57O different bacteria,
enough to kill few thousand human
beings. In another experiment a fly
was caught in a sterilized net and
dropped into bottle Of sterilized wa
ter. The bottle was shaken and the
germs washed off the Insects body, as
would be the case II the fly dropped
into a glass of milk for the baby. The
previously pure water was then exam
ined and it was discovered that the
fly's bath contained no less than 5,000-
900 disease germs.
About half the deaths from typhoid
in New York, according to the health
authorities, are attributed directly to
the distribution of germs by house
flies. And worse than that, the figures
show that of 1000 deaths of cooling
babies In tina. city from infantile dis
eases, more than 5000 were traced to
infection carried by house flies.
According to noted scientist tho
determination Of the pest Is compara-
lively easy. All that is necessary, he
says, is systematic effort on the part
Of the public. If all the people will
practise the utmost cleanliness, 1t Is
declared, the house fly will be extinct
in this country within few years, for
the house fly cannot exist without
filth.
Cleanliness" then, is the watchword
for the American public to put an end
to an insect that is not only terrible
nuisance. but terrible instrument OF
death to thousands of our population
every year.

No Corsets are Worn at West Point

discussion of West Pointers, that
many West Pointers acquire a figure
of perfection of symmetry and a car
riage the acme of manly grace, but
these are due not to any ingenious ap-
pliances, but to the systematic drills
and exercises that make the cadet, to
certain extent, an athlete. At the
outset these young fellows are put
through what are called the setting
up exercises, their object being to
straighten the body and develop the
chest. One might suppose that it would
require great amount of such exer.
else to make any marked showing,
but three long hours of such exercise
daily will soon produce beneficial re.
suits In the most stopped forms.
"The cadet uniform is also a great
help in this direction, The dress coat
is tight, very tight. The shoulders are
heavily padded In order to give them
a square effect The chest is made
thick, so that there will be no danger
of wrinkling. All this for the sake OF
looks; comfort has no place in the
makeup Of West Pointer; 1t Ia dis.

bill, either. Say, this new tangled
hair style Ia putting me to the bad.
"The worst feature of the whole
thing is that the heads, or rather the
hair, won't fit into the headrests. I
have tried all manner Of schemes, and
even had a new headrest built along
lines that was sure would fit, but
the heads simply won't fit into any
thing.
"If we do succeed In getting the
mass laid out and tucked away care
fully where 1t won't bother us, we get
something like this:
"'oh, mercy, doctor you are musp
ing my hair all up. And am going
to party this afternoon, too.
But the most usual thing is: oh
doctor, there is hairpin sticking in
my head. Wait minute. o, dear, lt's
coming down, Doctor. do stop a min.
ute while ! fasten UP my braid
Il do tell you what, the dentists
ought to get together and boycott the
present style of hairdress. or else In
sist that all extra hair be taken of
before any dental work will be done.

oreaon Mans insect Catcher.

In the country all sorts of homely
devices are used to catch the bugs
and kill them, and an Oregon man,
WHO probably had his apple orchard
overrun by some destructive species,
patented trap for the pests. A bar
rel has pieces cut out Of the upper
portion and is half flied with rotten
or bruised apples or some other odor-
ferrous fruit. On top of the barrel is
placed a pan partially filed with wa
ter, oil or some poisonous liquid. From
tho apex Of tripod that keeps the
basin from failing off the barrel hangs
a lantern. In the daytime the insects
Will be attracted by the odor of the
fruit, and in flying UP to feast many
ot them are likely to fly into the wa
ter. AT night the lantern is lighted
and bugs will come from afar to tlut-
ter against it,and meet their death In
the liquid beIow.--chicago Tribune.

WISE LITTLE WILLIE
HAD ONLY ONE REQUEST, BUT
THAT WAS IMPORTANT.
Well Aware Of the Privileges of Prls-
oners About to Be Sentenced.
culprlt Established Good
Hard Sense.

''It is my duty to teach you a se-
we're lesson" said Horatio Poppen-
ham, when Willie poppenham got
home, after playing hockey all after
noon, "Now, want you thoroughly
to understand the situation. Don't
imagine that I am furnishing you be-
cause it will give any satisfaction to
me personally. And want you to
realize thoroughly that I am not do
ing this in anger. I do it simply as
duty. 1t is very often necessary for
judges In the courts to sentence men
to undergo punishment, and the sher'
ifs and jailers and wardens have to
infiict this punishment
"Do you suppose the Judge gets any
personal satisfaction out Of 1t when he
sentences a man to be hang or to un.
dergo Imprisonment? Not at all.
Very often the judges heart Is almost
broken because 1t Is his duty to inn
pose such sentences. And so 1t is
with the men who have to infiict the
punishment. They do not administer
1t In anger. / suppose they would In
most cases prefer to let the offender
go free, If they could, just as l would
much prefer to let you off now, If I
had only my own feelings to consult.
"But there are duties which officers
of the law owe to society, and so they
are compelled, when man does
wrong, to see that he is properly pun
ished. If people could do wrong with
out being compelled to suffer for 1t
many Of them would be doing wrong
all the time, thus not only injuring
others, but also injuring themselves.
1t is the same In your case. II | per-
mitted you to go unpunished should
be doing yon wrong, and should
also be wronging the rest of the fam
lily. If you were allowed to do such
things as you have done, and suffer no
chastisement, you would soon go from
bad to worse, breaking your mothers
heart, robbing ME of happiness and
spelling your own chances for the fu-
ture.
you see, the family represents So
ciety, ON small scale, and the FAM
lily, like society, must have its sacred
laws. When these laws are broken
the laws of the family-it is just as
important that the one who breaks
them shall be punished as 1t is i'm
portant that the criminal who breaks
the laws which society has made for
itself shall be punished. In a small
way you represent the prisoner who
has been found guilty by the jury,
while I, occupying the position of
Judge, am compelled to pronounce
sentence upon you, and"
Say, father in court the prisoner is
always asked If he has anything to
say before the judge sentences him,
isn't he7"
Yes. And I anr going to extend
that privilege to you. What have you
to say?"
please let mother be the sheriff" "
