CARRIES GERMS OF TYPHOID

ease.

= s. D..
The housefly killed 1924 United
States soldiers during the Spanish.
American war through the medium Of
typhoid fever, more than were killed
and wounded by Spanish bullets.
There were 22,42o out Of 1858 sol.
diefs. OF 66e han out 81 sesvveh OF the
enlisted force Of the United States
army attacked with the disease.
1t has been known for many years
that typhoid fever was caused by
germs taken through the mouth, but
1t was not until the spanish.Amefican
war that the housefly was known to
be largely responsible for its spread.
At Camp Ramsey. MINI, where the
Fifteenth Minnesota was in camp,
what became known as Inflated q
company was detailed when the regi.
ment left for Georgia to police the
camp. Thirty members Of the com.
pany were taken i'll with typhoid fe-
yer within a day, and within week
the number increased to 80, nearly
half the company. More than 20 men
OF the flower Of the company died.
The sudden epidemic has since been
charged to the presence Of myriads of
flies which swarmed the deserted com.
pany streets and carried decayed ref.
use to the cook tent.

Sleep.

The first sleep is the soundest-
after the first hour the intensity Of
sleep slowly diminishes-hence the
value Of forty winks after dinner in
quickly recuperating shattered pow
ers. Temperature and vitality are
lowest at about 300 a. M, so that
two hours sleep before midnight are
worth four thereafter. Nature has no
rule as to the length of sleep, except
that men need less than women, since
women are the more sensitive crea-
lures and woman's heart beats five
times more in a minute than mans.
Sleep should be just so long that when
you wake in the morning stretch
and yawn only are necessary to land
you In a daytime Of bounding vigor.
Al to early rising, 1t is comforting to
hear DR.. Bryce say that it is habit
that has gone far to wreck the con.
situations of many growing youth.

up.
To make matters worse the gas
man hadn't been out to turn on the
gas which. undoubtedly had been shut
off since last tenant had moved out,
and there were no electric lights in

outfit Of oil lamps for so short time
and We're getting along the best they
could with candles.
Each morning they called up the
gas office and the clerk said there

FAIR At FRENCH CAPITAL
Quaint Gathering, With Misleading
Name, Feature Of Gay City
Of Paris.

A great feature of the present week
is the ham fair which is held on the
Boulevard Richard LIE Noir. The
name of this fair is wholly misleading.
for as far as l have seen hams are
the very last thing any one buys
there.
Old brass and copper curios,
quaint jewelry, rare china, lace, tap
estries, and books are what most
people go out for to GEEK, and a sight
not to be easily forgotten is the long,
wide boulevard lined with ramshackle
stalls laden with every possible kind
OF lumber and presided over by the
most rapacious Of brocanteurs.
Out of piles of valueless lumber
Americans and English diligently
seek for their pet kind of curios, and
there is not an artist in Paris who
cannot point to some bit of furniture
In his or her studio and say with
pride, Il got that for five francs at
the ham fair"
No one ever pays more than five
francs, l notice, but, alas, every year

Ing in Paris grows more and more

A DANGEROUS EXPERIMENT
The Constitutional Amendment
Opens the Door for Numer-
Gus Abuses

AT first The News was disposed

DUN amendment favorably. ~
theory lit seems good. keeps pow
er in the hands of the people
where it belongs. and fulfills the
idea of popular government. But
the more we udy it the more dan
gerous itseems to be. 1t might be
all right for small communities or
even for a state If drawn SO as to
be power held in reserve only to
be used in case of emergency. But
as it is it is liable to be abused and
has so many dangerous features
that it would work disaster. In the
first place it is fundamental
change in our form of representa-
tive government, in effect, taking
the law making power from the
legislature and giving it direct to
the voters. and we should hesitate
long before making such change.
No matter how intelligent the peo-
pie may be, when it comes to draft
ing and enacting laws. as whole,
it is too unwieldy and cumbersome
