SWAT THE FLY.

This is what an authority says
about the common housefly:
Many diseases which are attributed
to milk and water originate through
flies. a polluted brook, river, or lake
furnishes germs from sewers and flies
in xnillions settle on the refuse that
washes along the waters edge.
Intestinal diseases are more fire.
quent whenever and wherever flies are
most abundant and they, and not the
summer heat are the active agents in
its spread.
There is special danger when flies
drop into such fluid as milk. This
forms ideal culture material for
the bacillus. A few germs washed
from the body of one fly may develop
into millions within few hours. and
the person who drinks such milk will
receive large doses of bacili, which
may later cause serious sickness
Therefore, keep the flies away from
the milk
Moral: Swat the ny.-Rutland
News.
There are many different kinds
of flies that in this swatting one
should be prompted to swat the fly
inte1ligently. Tt would be murder to
kill an inoffensive fly even through
ignorance. The war is not on the bee
fly. or the bluebottle-fly, or the green
head-fly. or the fchneumon-fly or the
robber-fly, or the water-fly, or the
thousand and one flies that never in
wade a home or fall into the milk 1t
is the housefly, the fly that creeps
on the nose of sleeping infants and
annoys baldheaded men. Then the air
is laden with bacteria, and expert
ments have shown that over 5000 a
minute will get into milk without the
assistance of any fly whatever. So
far as the fly in the milk is concerned.
why let him incite fear-why swat
him? We are not specially friendly
to the fly. but we dislike humbug with

Missoula, Mont.-Mercilessly and re.
lentlessly the forest fires in Western
Montana and Idaho are sweeping over
a vast area, driving hundreds of fu-
gitfves before them, destroying small
settlements and wiping out of exist
once millions of dollars worth of prop
srty.
The situation is serious AS to
Wallace. Idaho, it is believed that
nearly half of the city will be saved.
Communication with Wallace to the
west has been possible. 1t is known
that the entire east half of the town
above Seventh street has been burned.
West Of that a hard fight is being
made and with an improvement in the
water supply there Is some chance
that the flames may be driven back.
Thirteen lives are reported lost.
Property loss, 100000. Fire still
burning.
Elsewhere in the fire zone, the stu
alton has gone from bad to worse. The
most serious incident was reported
late Saturday from the St. Coe coun-
try, where 100 men engaged in the
forestry service are missing and it is
feared they have been burned to
death.
When the fire approached the camp,
where there were 200 men, two of the
fighters took horse and, riding the
animal to death, rode from the camp
and ordered rescue party, which pen
etrated the fire to Bird Creek.
Eighteen of the men were found In
the water, where they had gone for
safety. and they were unframed.
From the remaining 100 men NO
word has been received.
A relief train, well equipped with
pack animals, has been ordered, car
ry1ng provisions and hospital supplies,
and will endeavor to get through the
lire. About thousand refugees were
brought into Missoula Sunday. There
is much distress among them, but their
wants are being supplied by Missoula
people and they have been given tenn
porary homes. The first of the trains
came in over the Northern Pacific's
Occur d'Alene branch and brought the
patients who had been in the hospital
1t Wallace and as many refugees as
could find places on the small train.
There were $50 on this train, and a
second train at noon brought as many
more. These people came from the
small towns along the line.

Where Millions Are Entombed.


The catacombs at Rome were the
burial places Of the early Christians.
They are about $50 miles In extent and
are said to have contained 6,0oo. 900
bodies. During the prosecutions OF the
Christians under Nero and other Ro-
man emperors the catacombs were
used for hiding places. Under Diocle-
tan the catacombs were crowded with
those for whom there was no safety
In the face Of the day. The art Of the
catacombs is unique and most inter
esting. Simple designs are etched In
the slabs which seal the tombs. Now

paintings are to be found. All are

combs may be said to be a pictorial
