"To THE BITTER END"

The derivation of the often-used
phrase, ''to the bitter end" is AK
planned by a writer in the New York
Sun as follows:
1t is nautical term. If you have
ever been on big ship you must
have noticed two large pieces of tim
Der sticking up out of the deck for
ward, alongside each other. They
sometimes have a windlass between
them, and they are used to secure
the anchor cable. These pieces of
wood are called the 'bitts."
When the ship comes to anchor
and the cable is paid out all that
part of it which is abaft, or behind,
the ''bitts" is called the "bitter end
of the cable" In a storm, or in poor
holding ground for the anchors the
more cable that is paid out the bet
ter the anchor will hold, and when
the captain is at all deubtful he pays
out his cable to the "bitter end"
sooner than risk any harm to his
ship.

Reminder Of the Way In Which a Pic

Moose Jaw is a strange name for
a city, and it may be of interest to
know how such a name was given.
Some fifty years ago, 50 the story
goes, a pioneer with his team of oxen
and "prairie schooner" while pass
ing along the banks of the river, was
obliged to camp at this point, in Sas-
katchewan, on account of an accident
to his cart, as a spoke had fallen
apart. He looked round for some
thing to insert for a temporary
brace for the wheel, while his wife
busted herself with the evening meal.
The pioneers child, while romp-
ing around, found the jawbone of a
moose, which she held up to her "a
Their, who by this time almost de-
SPARED of finding something with
which to mend his wagon, and was
delighted to find that the jawbone
exactly fitted the place of the miss
ing spoke. The Indians thereafter
named this part of the river 'The
Place Where the White Man Found
the Moose Jaw" This accounts for
the towns unforgettable name

People.

The trials and tribulations of milk
inspector trying to force insanitary
people to live according to sanitary
rules are shown in the issue of the
Healthologist, the official organ OF
the Milwaukee health department.
The story follows:
A Milwaukee milk inspector during
farm inspection, came upon a place
hopelessly filthy, dlsorderly and run
down. A motherly person with big
heart, but firm and weird convictions,
listened to the young mans sugges-
tions. Then looking over her spec
tacles pityingly, she said:
Boy, my mother was ninety-seYen
years old when she died. She was
dirtier than l am, and lived in a
dirtier house and drank dirtier milk.
If she could stand it I guess there
amt no reason why l and the city
folks that get milk from this farm
can't stand 1t too"
And not being able to answer that
argument, the milk inspector left her

indignation over them there new

WHY WE DETEST PARASITES
Feeling of Instructive Revulsion ls
Justified, for They Are Carriers
of Disease.

The feeling of instructive revulson
against parasites of all kinds which
characterizes humanity generally, and
which is due to something much more
than the mere pain or annoyance that
their bites might infict, become more
interesting as further discoveries show
the role of insects in the spread of
disease.
Unfortunately this natural abhor-
renee has not been enough to protect
man under conditions of poverty and
uncleanliness from harboring such par
Rsites, and now those who understand
how much more than a mere personal
annoyance is in question from the ex-
lstence Of parasites must take up the
problem to eradicate them
The possibility of the bedbug con.
veying relapsing fever, typhoid and
leprosy has been suggested and ap-
parently there is no parasite of man
that may not be mode Of disease
conveyance. Flies, fleas, mosquitoes
and bugs not only are all under sus-
picion, but most of them are also
actually demonstrated as ordinary and
frequent conveyors of diseases of va
rious kinds.
Health authorities must now take
up the problem of getting rid of in
sect parasites in order to stamp out
disease. From the Journal of the
