1t is difficult alike to prevent bed
bugs from getting into the house,
and to get them out when once they
are in. So prolific are they that
two or three females, will stock a
house in a season If undisturbed.
The best weapon for fighting
them is scrupulous and persistent
cleanliness. All beds should be
looked over at least once week in
the summer, and if any traces of
these pests are found the bed should
be taken apart and washed thor
oughly with cold soap suds and
scrub brush. That will destroy the
eggs. Then wash each part of the
bed with spirits of turpentine, or
an ounce of corrosive sublimate, or
the southern remedy of quicksilver
mixed with the beaten white of egg
These last are deadly poisons and
must be used carefully. The mat
tress must be examined, too. 1t is
best to put it out of doors if posi-

found, saturate with gasoline the

GOOD WORK ON
THE RATE FIGHT

The progress of the delegation OF
business men who went east to
labor in the interests of the long
and short haul clause in the new
measures before congress was fully
outlined before the luncheon of the
chamber OF commerce this noon by
Percy Powell, who has just re-
turned.
Mr.. Powell stated that from a
seemingly impossible matter, inter-
est has so been aroused in the
upper and lower houses that a bill
doing away with any further rate
controversy will undoubtedly be
passed.
We have received the endorse
ment of all the regulars, and,
against our expectations, the in
surgents and progressives as well,
and when we left we had the as
surance that we would get favor
able legislation without question:"

GRIND OF THE
DIVORCE MILL

Zelda Manor has filed divorce
proceedings against Robert S. Ma
nor on the grounds of cruelty. She
states that he has often called her
vile names and that he has threat
ened her life. They were married
in 1904.
Alleging desertion and non-sup-
port Alice Schille too is seeking
separation from A. c. Schille after
a married life of eight years.
Because she refused to supply
Orviole G. Smith with her own
money that he might play it away
at cards, Louise Ne Smith was
deserted while the two were living
at the home of her sister and she
has since heard nothing from him.
She was granted divorce this
morning by Judge Hinkle.
