No. 5118.-We show a novel style for
utility waist It is cut with the
shoulder and the upper part of the
sleeve in one. There is, as there must
be in all these waists, an under-arm
gore, which provides for the proper ad-
justment of the garment. The back
is perfectly plain, the front broken
only by the band for the closing. The
sleeves are finished at the wrist by
band cuff and short peplum gives
something to hold down the waist be-
low the skirt belt. This waist will be
found very practical for wear under
the knitted jerseys, which are now
SO much liked, and it is ideal for morn
ing wear. The pattern (5118) is cut
in sizes 80 to AZ inches bust measure.
To make the waist in the medium size
will require 21s yards of material &c
inches wide and IL yards of 44-inch.
To procure this pattern send 10 cents,
to Pattern Department." of this paper.
Write name and address plainly, and be-
sure to give size and number Of pattern.

this fact with what every one knows about flies,

Of flies as carriers of human disease germs
Look closely at the picture of the fly resting
on the glass and viewed from below. Look at the
feet and observe that each of them is equipped
with two claws and two Hglt-colored PADS The
fly clings to rough surfaces by means of the claws
and to smooth surfaces by a combined action of
the claws and pads. The dys pads are covered
with thousands Of minute short hairs sticky at
tho end There is suction-merely adhesion
All his grown-up life the fly has to manage
with sticky feet Imagine our plight if the soles
of our feet were sticking plaster, perennially re-
Eewing its sickness!
To such inconvenience the fly is constantly
subject, and it Is this that has bred into him the
habit of frequently preening himself, particularly
his feet. These are constantly becoming closged
with adhering substances, and this contamination
the fly must assiduously remove if his feet are to
act properly in supporting him on slippery places
If this contamination is too sticky to rub off the
fly laps it off, and it then passes off In his ex-
,creta.
The fly lays her eggs in the manure pile or
other Objectionable filth. All the germs-all the
imaginable microbes-fasten themselves on the
srongy feet. He brings them into the house and
wipes them off. The fly you see walking over the
food you are about to eat is covered with filth

The peace congress at Stockholm

political subjugation of Finland by
Russia. It was announced that the
Russian delegates had taken no part

the subject, and Prince Dolgoroukoff
Of Russia read statement to the eff

Russia would be fair and just to Fin
land, but that his position prevented
him from taking part in the discussion
of the matter, and even from being
present during such discussion. After
the congress had endorsed the attitude
Of the Russian delegates Prof. Ruyssen
from Bordeaux reported the following
resolution from the committee:

by ono of the parties, and pointing out
that the most prominent jurists hold
that the relation between Russia and
Finland, according to the act of Borga
| and the treaty Of FredriKshamn, is
based on legal agreements which &C.
knowledge Finland as nation, the
eighteenth international congress of
peace expresses its keen regret be-
cause the imperial duma and the i'm
perial Russian government have al
tered this legal agreement without hav-

nation, and at the same time expresses
the hope that the Russian people, bet

| the wishes of the entire civilized world,
| will make no delay in restoring the
legal agreement between the empire
and the grand duchy of Finland in con-
formity with the rights of both parties

resolution had been translated into
English and German it was adopted by
an unanimous vote.
