BEWARE OF THE DANGEROUS :.
HOUSE FLY. d:
:. " $4,000. ~%~**%%%

Flies are the most dangerous insects
we have. They are much more dan
gerous than bees or hornets; these
may sting you and the sting is pain
full, but you soon get over the pain
Flies do much more harm than this.
They walk over filthy places like sew
ers and garbage cans, and after eat
ing the filthy food which they find
there, they come into your house and
walk on the food you eat, carrying on
their feet the tiny germs which live
in filth Just as you live in a house.
These germs are not only filthy and
disgusting. but many of them cause
such diseases as typhoid fever, chol-
era infantum and summer complaint.
When the flies bring them from some
dirty place to your food or leave some
of them when they crawl on your face
or hands, you may swallow these
germs without knowing 1t, and be TAX
en- i'll with one of these diseases

fiies--a most useful and important
war-speak of the fly as the fly that
will not wipe his feet" 1t is a good
rough phrase to attract attention, but
unfortunately the fly DOES wipe his
feet He wipes his feet On the food
that you eat, on the faces and on the
lips of your sleeping children. He is
a freQuenter of offal; the female fly
lays her eggs in the manure piles, The
flies in millions settle on the refuse,
the sewerage that washes all along the
beach along the waters edge in great
cities.
All the germs, all imaginable horri-
BILE microbes, fasten themselves to the
spongy feet of the fly, and the fly
brings the germs into the house and
there WIPES THEM OFF HIS FEET.
And that does more to spread typhoid
than any other cause.
How often have you seen the fly
standing on a lump of sugar in the
sugar bowl, industriously shufflng his
front feet! He is wiping off the dis
ease germs, rubbing them on the sugar
that you are going to eat.
You should place screens at your
doors and windows during the warm
weather, to keep the flies out of the
house. If you can not screen all the
rooms, you should screen those in
which food is kept; and if anyone is
sick in the house, flies should be kept
from the sick room, so that they may
not carry the germs from the sick per-
son to the rest of the family.
Children should not buy candy, fruit
or other food which is left in front
of stores or anywhere else where flies
may feed and walk on it.
War to the death should be dec1ar-
ed upon the little pest His presence
is disgrace. His touch may be dead
ly. Either man must kill the fly or the
fly will kill the man. If there is no
dirt and filth there will be no flies.
Keep the flies away from the milk
Don't allow flies in your house.
Don't permit them near your food,
especially milk.
Don't buy foodstuffs where flies are
tolerated.
Don't allow your fruits and confec-
lions to be exposed to the swarms of
flies.
Don't let flies crawl over the baby's
mouth and swarm upon the nipple of
its nursing bottle.
Clean up your premises inside and
out, and then see that others do the
same. Strike at the root of the evil.
The house fly breeds in horse manure,
kitchen offal, and the like. Dispose of
these materials in such way that
the house fly can not propagate-Ex-
