again, who are perfectly willing to-

The models view the situation from a
queer angle. They look upon the class
posing as modest; upon individual

Sure Death to Flies.

Fly papers are to be superseded by
a fluid exterminator. "In our expert
ence," says the London Lancet, "the
best exterminating agent is a weak
solution of weak formaldehyde in wa.
ter (say two teaspoonfuls to the pint)
and this experience has been con.
firmed by others. It would appear
that flies are attracted by a weak so.
luton of formaldehyde, which they
drink. Some die in the water, others
get as far only as the immediate vi
cinity of the plate of water, but all
ultimately succum5, and where they
occur in large numbers hundreds may
be swept up from the floor"

Who freezes strongly to his roll,
Until he hasn't any;
His money colors all his dreams,
And when awake he's full of scheme
To nail another penny.

It nearly drives him dotty;
He grovels to the man of biz
Who has bigger roll than his
And to the poor he's naughty.
