ing and everybody isbetter satisfied
1t may be that in a few instances
the law has hurt business, but these
cases are rare, and will usually bo
found to be due to the fact that the
grocer has not taken pains to make a
tempting display of vegetables inside.
Some grocers have devoted Il sec
tion of the front window to the veg
etable display, and keep the window
wet, dripping and cool with spray
Such a display get seven more atten-
tion than an outside display.
From a purely business standpoint
the change has been a good one, and
from a sanitary standpoint there is
no doubt of its desirability.
In a certain city OF Pennsylvania
a woman who sells bread and cakes,
who has been trained in the good old
fashioned principles of cleanliness
and likewise given some lessons con-
corning the peril that turks in bread
and cake that have been Travelled
over many times by the common
house fly, was in the habit of keeping
her cakes and bread carefully cover
ed during the months when the fly
invades every accessible place.
She relates her experience during
the past summer which were rather
trying. She wanted to be honest with
the public; she wanted to be an obe-
dint SERVANT of law; and yet cir
cumstances were such that she came
pretty zeal developing into a cynic
during those summer months. She
is a fine baker. She takes special
pains with the bread and cakes she
bakes, always using proper materials
and taking a wholesome pride In the
superior quality of all she prepares
for the market.
She says that another baker whose
stand was close to hers did not
trouble herself to cover her products.
Gard many times during the sum
mer," she declared, people went
right by my cakes because they were
covered and made their purchase
everything upon it was fairly black
with flies. They see my goods COW
cred up and pass on to n.y. neighbor
who has no scruples of conscience
against selling fly-tainted goods. 1t
Is true that a few folks do notice
the difference and do buy from me,
but they are few and far between.
Now what am I to do? Shall I con
tinue to obey the state law or shall
initiate my neighbor and let the
flies have full access to my goods?
[ cannot afford to bake bread and
cakes and take them to market for
the sake of showing them off; and
yet | don't like to give the flies the
freedom of the goods" This Incl
dent simply shows the necessity OF
continued vigorous effort to educate
the people concerning the dire peril
that the common house fly carries
On its wings and legs. 1t is amaz-
ing that in this age of the world and
after so much has been said and
written, the majority of the attend
ants at any city market deliberately
prefers to purchase fly-infected goods

MAKING HIM FEEL AT HOME
Odd Offer Of New York Hotel Man
Which Probably Commodore Peary
Declined With Thanks.

Commodore Peary, discussing ho-
tells with a Washington reporter
said:
"Modern hotels are becoming more
and more luxurious. Every bedroom
now has its private bath and dressing
room. These hotels can't do enough
to make you comfortable"
Commodore Peary stroked his
mustache and smiled.
"In fact" he said, "when |
stopped, just after my return from
the north pole, at Simeon Ford's
luxurious hotel, Mr.. Ford bowed and
rubbed his hands and said anxiously
"'We shall do everything to make
you feel at home. Would you like
a nice large cake of ice in your bed,
sir?'"

BRAGGART LOST HIS NERVE
Cool Courage Of the Soldier Whom
He Had Threatened to Kill Was
Too Much for Him.

When Louis Napoleon was presi-
dent of the second French republic,
the officer in command at Lyons was
General Castellane, veteran whose
stern rule kept in check the riotous
spirit of that disorderly city.
One of the most boisterous citi-
zens was barber, who openly boast
ed that he only waited for an oppor-
tunity to rid the city Of its stern
commandment.
The general heard Of the threat
and one afternoon ordered his coach
man to drive to the BARRIERS shop.
Leaving his carriage, the general
entered the shop unattended, took a
vacant chair and desired the barber
to shave him. The astonished bragg
CART performed the operation as well
as his nervousness would permit.
When he had finished the general
paid him and said quietly:
"Monsieur, since you have not
availed yourself of the opportunity
/ have given you to cut my throat,
would it not be wise to refrain from
uttering threats that you have not
the courage to carry out?"

FAMOUS FRENCH ARCHITECT.

Eugene Emmanuel Viollet-Leduc,
celebrated architect of whom
France was justly proud, was born
in Paris 100 years ago. In his youth
he studied architecture under the IA
nous Leclerc. When he was fairly
started on his career he devoted him
self principally to Gothic and medic
val architecture. His work attracted
wide attention and he was employed
by the French government to super
wise the restoration Of a number of
ancient churches. TO NJ. Violet
Leduc all lovers of the mighty ca
thedrals of Notre Dame and Amiens
are eternally indebted for his restora-
tions. He was the author of a his
tory of French architecture and a
number of other works on his chosen
branch of art. He died in Paris Sep
tember II, 1879.

Mrs. Elizabeth M. Sharpe, who
has been residing in Oklahoma
for several years has removed to
Kansas City, Mo-, where she ex-
poets to stay indefinitely. Mrs.
Sharpe says that this is a banner
year for farmers in Oklahoma
and Kansas. The wheat crop
in both those states is simply
immense. The cutting of wheat
and oats is over and threshing is
now on. AS is generally the case
when bushels are plenty, price is
scarce" and labor is always
high; so that the farmers are not
any too happy after all. The trou
BILE with the wheat crop in those
states is, that the seasons are
apt to be too dry; this has been
an exceptionally fine season-lots
of showers. 1t is hoped that the
climatic conditions are changing,
in, that there are likely to be
fewer dry seasons as the land be-
comes cultivated. Mrs. Sharpe's
address is now 1884 Wabash Ave
Kansas City, Mo.

HONOR FOR UNITED STATES.

One of the foremost educators of
Argentina, DR.. Antonio Vidal, who
has spent more than a year in inves-
tigating the schools of Europe and
the United States, completed his
work in Chicago recently. DR.. Vidal
said that the United States leads the
world in the education of defective
children, Germany being its only ri
val. He said the teaching of sex hy-
giene in the schools was a subject
to which he had devoted much
thought and considerable observa-
tion, but that it was a question with
so many collateral issues that he had
not decided in his own mind for or
against the innovation.

The United States Bureau of
Agriculture is trying to educate
owners of chickens concerning
the superiority of infertile eggs,
not only for use, but for keeping
qualities. Large shippers of
eggs do not permit roosters with
the laying hens unless the eggs
are intended for Matching. If a
hen sit on eggs over night, life
appears in the germ of a fertile
egg, and when such eggs are put
into the market basket the germ
dies and rots, and by the time the
eggs reach city markets they are
classed as "spots and rots." One
reason for the low price of eggs
is the fact that dealers must
make allowance for this waste,
and quote prices to country stores
and hucksters accordingly, in
order to offset the cost of can
ding them, and to make up for
the bad eggs.
