AFIy cateohlsm.

Now that the ny-time is with
us it is worth our while to sum
up what we know about musca
domestica in terse phrases. It
has long been known that the
common housefly was an unmit-
igated nuisance, but it is only
lately that it has been demon
strated that he is a menace to
health. AS a possible infection
carrier he occupies first place.
In order that the public may
know something Of the 'cussed-
ness Of the .critter" the following
fly catechism has been prepared
and widely distributed. LEST we
forget" l take the liberty to re-
produce it:
1. Where is the fly born? In
filth.
2. Where does the fly livee In
every kind Of filth.
8. Is anything too filthy for
the fly? No.
4. '(a) Where does he go when
he leaves the place Of filth? Into
the kitchen and DINING room.
(b) What does he do there? He
walks on the bread, fruit and
vegetables; he wipes his feet on
the butter and battles in the but
termilk. s
5. Does the fly visit patients
who are sick with consumption,
typhoid fever and other diseases /?
He does-and may call on you

mans worst pest, and more dan
gerous than wild beasts or rattle
snakes. ~ ''-' -
7. What diseases does the fly

How? On his wings and hairy
feet. What is his correct name ?

WASHINGTON NEWS.

If in order to be convinced
that the present policy of excess
sive protection is a mistake, the
American public simply demands
evidence that workers in the
most highly protected industries
receive no protection whatsoever,
then the country will go over
whelmingly Democratic this fall.
The evidence is accessible.
The Lawrence, Mass, strike
revealed that the men, women
and children workers in the
great wooden mills-the most
highly protected industry of all,
receive SIS, Sc, and 81 a week
wages for full time. The STAN
ley committee showed that work
ers in the blast furnaces of the
steel mills-the second most
highly protected industry-work
IL hours a day, seven days
week, and are miserabls treated
and underpaid.
And now comes the most dam
ming revelations of all, in the re-
port of the New York Factory In
vestigating commission, showing
that there are 100000 women at
work in the highly protected fac.
tories of New York cities, and
that the average weekly wage Of
these women toilers is SIS. The
proprietors Of the factories told
the Investigators time and again
that they "use women in place of
men wherever possible, as they
are cheaper and do not strike for
better wages or conditions"
The report of this commission
has been verified by independent
investigators of a big Yew York
newspapers. Here are some or
the ways the factories and mill
owners protect American work..
ingmen."
Boys fingers, when cut off in
the punch" machines in the
metal working shops, are quoted
at 5000 pair; singly, they are
worth $3.50.
Women, some of them gray
haired. stand ten hours daily,
stripping pork and making saus-
ages. F!
Women, some young and some
old, work at core making in the
steel and iron foundries, while
they breathe carbon monoxide, a
poisonous gas, libersted by the
ovens in the same room.
Many thousands of children
are legally employed long hours,
doing the work Of adults; child
rem can do some classes of work
as fast as men, for % and 81 a.
week. In one factory the entire:
output is made by children, the
only adult about the place being
the owner.
Query: The manufactures who
use their help this way receive
excessive protection, on the plea
American workmen." Since they.
are not protecting their employees
why should they be permitted
lmonoulies on their products,
Which enable them to build up
enormous fortunes & by over
charging the consumers Of the
nation? ~ 40 10 EAH - - -

THE WISE WOMAN WILL Do
HER SUMMER SEWING NOW
January Sales Offer Saving Opportunities and the Colo
Weather Supplies More Energy for Work Than
the Enervating Days of Spring.

who sews viii ind comfortable. Even
the bachelor girl. who does no more than
make her own shirt waists. will be glad
when spring comes II she has accom-
plished the work In January or February.
Not only will she be able to pick up pret-
" materials and beautiful little ends Of
trimmings at q most reasonable price
during this month OF big sales, but she
will feel her own share Of the gladness
experienced every spring by the mother
Of four children that her sewing was ac-
complished while the weather was cold
and invigorating.
It Is a pitiable lack OF system In the
majority OF homes that makes the work
there drag itself out endlessly. The
woman who divides the year up praot-
cally and has q regular month for the
family sewing finds that she is not crowd
ed for time or in q Hurried mental stats
from the beginning to the ending Of each
year.
Don't you know mothers who Invariably
monopolize the conversation with q re-
cital of how far behind they are In their
sewing, declaring that the children have
nothing to wear?"
And the worst of It Il, that you hear
the same refrain every month IN the year.
Either the statement Is an exaggeration
or the woman making II Is totally devoid
Of system
In either case one would think that
pride and self-respect would keep her
from harping on her lack OF good man
agement.

VOTE TOMORROW
FOR YOUR FLOWER
School Children, Here Is Another
Opportunity to Select Your
Favorite for the Year.

Tomorrow Is the day the school chill
dren OF Washington vote for their IA
vorite flower for 1912.
Red flowers are always popular with
boys and men. and girls and women love
them because they are bright and CHEEKY.
Perhaps one OF these three Is your favor
ite for 1872.
Scarlet sage Is the most goTgeously
red Of all red flowers. Even the little
leaves and stem below the flower are q
brilliant, burning glow OF color. II should
not be planted close 10 bricks unless soft
ened with q green background; but
massed in mounds and hedges II is a
thing Of beauty" II Is difiicult to raise
from seed, but fourth grade children did
II successfully last year, and had strong
plants for the school garden early In June.
II you vote for It, you must remember to
give II plenty OF water and 10 pinch on
the first flowers that come.
China pinks are first cousins Of the old
fashioned garden pinks They grow close
to the ground and make an attractive
border. Every shade and tint OF red may
be found among them and often many
kinds OF red in one flower. -Four daint-

Fashions Fanfare.

The Importance now being given to
the cheaper kinds OF fur Is the great
feature Of the present fur season. Quite
as much attention is given IN the fur
shops to the display Of Russian foalsl1in.
China goat rabbit. catskin, opossum,
bear or wolf as to the more costly sables,
chinchilla, ermine, or seal
A popular demand has sprung up
among fashionable women OF late for
furs which were once chiefly used as
carriage rugs or door mats. Opossum.
for instance, was one Of the furs devoted
exclusively to carriage rugs. Up TIL a
year ago no one had thought OF utilizing
this skin, with all its beautiful silvery
softness. for personal adornment till an
enterprising dressmaker saw Its posi-
bilities for enriching dress.
Opossum stood its test. and this season
II takes its place on the list OF popular
fura.

'THERE'SAREASON,'
SAYS LECTURER

Last night at Flynn Hall. Eighth and
K streets northwest, Alonzo T. Jones
spoke on America leading the world,
and why" He said that not only Is
America now leading the world. but
since I776 she always has lead the world
This leading. Mr.. Jones said, has been
by virtue OF the mighty power of the
two distinguishing principles OF the two
great national documents-ths Declaration
OF Independence and the national Con-
stitution-civil liberty and religious lib
erty, government OF the people and the
complete separation OF religion and the
state.
"a republic" said the speaker, "is a
government OF the people by their ac-
credited representatives. But It is said
that here the representatives do not now
really represent: that they cannot be
trusted. Yet all these representatives
are chosen from among the people them
selves. Then II follows that the primary
weakness Is not in the representatives
but in the people And the true remedy
is not the removal Of the representatives
nor the remodeling OF the representa-
tives, but the improvement OF the people.
Not the change Of the representatives,
but the change OF the people"
