Judge Ed. c. 0'Rear Here Sunday
Night.

Hon. Ed. c. O'Rear, candidate
Tor the Republican nomination for
Governor of Kentucky, spent a few
hours here Sunday, coming up from
Dawson Springs on the evening train
and stopping over until Monday
morning as he was en- route to his
speaking appointment at Russell
vile for that afternoon. The visit
was an unexpected one, but many
of our citizens called at the Old Inn
during the evening and met the dis
tinguished guest. This is the first
time that most of the callers had
met Judge O'Rear, but all were i'm
pressed with his pleasing personal
ity, and everyone recognized that
he had in him the making of first
class Governor of the State. Muhl-
enberg county is by large majority
favorable to the candidacy Of o.
Rear, and he is the choice of his

The Road Working Crews.

1t is the general comment that
the work being done on the roacs
this spring is the most thorough
that has ever been done. The
crews are showing deeper ap-
probation of road needs than ever
before manifested, and are using
intelligence in overcoming all OBJ
stacles. Messrs. Fox & Nash, con-
tractors for large part of the work /,
are certainly enthusiastic over their
work, and this has been transferred
to their helpers, who will not leave
a thing half done. but are thorough
in every move. Commissioner Bog
CESS is doing considerable road work
himself, and is fortunate in having
secured Mr.. n. L. Sweeney and his
teams of mules. Mr.. Sweeney is
experienced in the operation of the
road machines, and his mules are
ample and accustomed to this
service. The work being done un-
der Mr.. Boggess direction is high
ly gratifying, and there has arisen a
spirit of commendable rivalry be-
tween the various crews as to which
shall do the best work. Let this
spirit continue to rule.

The New Postal Cards.

Cream-colored postal cards print
ed in red ink will soon replace
the present cards of black ink de-
sign. This is an attempt to give the
people an artistic card. The Govern
ment will spend sos 900 more this
year than last in a decorative way.
This is not extravagant, for the profit
on postal cards exceeds SS, 900
the year. The PoStolfice Depart
mept hopes that the new card will
be so attractive that the additional
sales will cover the increase in ex
PeRse. The postal card has long
been useful, and its widespread use
in Inc commercial world in recent
years has given it increasina i'm
portance. For transmitting notices
and information not of a private
nature, the postal card is a great
money-saver and time saver.

Swat the Flyl It's a Deadly Peril.


+. Mitchell Prudden, NJ. d.,
whose valuable book, "The Story of
Bacteria" Putnams, has just reached
a second edition, says: vThere is
no doubt that the germs of typhoid
fever, and when it is prevalent those
of Asiatic cholera, are conveyed by
|. the activities of flies" Again,
he writes that it is not among lions,
tigers, reptiles, or snakes that we
must look for mans most destructive
animal enemy. These stay at home
and mind their own business.
But the house fly, he continues,
wanders about and gets its objection
able person on or into almost every
thing. 1t breeds chiefly in manure
and garbage heaps. 1t revels IN
almost all these things which to the
normal man seem dirty, filthy, and
disgusting. Then it wanders over
the food and persons of men, women,
and children whenever opportunity
offers.
This is certainly bad enough, and
the excreta which we euphemistic-
ally name fly specks marks the
scope of its summer excursions.
But the worst of it is that the
bacteria which are swarming in
most of the stuff the house fly eats
and dabbles his feet and tongue in
are in large degree alive after they
have passed the department of his
interior, and they stay long alive
upon his feet.
Now when the house fly feed upon
infective human excreta-as he does
whenever he gets a chance-the ty-
phoid bacilli or the tubercle bacill
or the contemplate brood which
lncites dysentery and the protean
summer ailments of both old and
young may be carried directly and
in full virulence to the food and
persons of the we'll.
1t has been shown. by hundreds
of accurate scientific observations
that the house fly is the conveyor
of infective stuff, especially of ty-
phoid fever, but also of the other
maladies which we have named,
If the fly which favors us with his
addresses has come, as is most likely
the case, from revel in simply filth,
he is just nuisance; If from infect
i've filth, he is also a menace.
A very simple experiment will
illustrate what happens when house
ay with dirty feet walk over foodstuff
on which bacteria can grow. One
of the Petri plates was partly filed
with warm nutrient gelatin in which
bacteria flourish. When it cooled
a smooth, solid surface was formed.
An unwary house fly was caught and
his legs and body were dipped into
a dish of very dirty sewage water
He was pinchsd little to quell his
flying ambitions and set down upon
the surface of the gelatin. Here he
was permitted to wander about for
moment and then met his destiny.
The plate was covered and set in a
warm place for three days. Where
ever his feet touched the gelatin,
and where his body dragged, the
bacteria grew. The track of the
wandering fly is marked in colonies
of living bacteria, many thousands
in each.
Similar results follow the con-
tamination of milk by dirty flies.
So also foods which flies visit and
fresh berries IN city markets are
planted with germs of varying po-
tency.
