The Different Kind of Soap. That,

Different because Fels-Naptha IS

Different because Fels-Naptha gets

Different because Fels-Naptha itself
does the work of loosening the dirt from
the fabric, which every other soap leaves to
you to do with the waShboard.
Different because with Fels-Naptha
there's no backache: no need for long
bending over the tub, as with other soaps.
Different because Fels-Naptha saves

The story follows:
A Milwaukee milk inspector during

Pantheon and Parthenon,

The Parthenon, or what is left OF
It, stands upon the Acropolis OF
Athens. This most famous building
on earth was erected under the adj
ministration of Pericles about B. c.
442. It's present ruinous condition
was caused by the explosion Of a
bomb during the war between the
Venetians and Turks in 1887. The
Pantheon, at Rome, was built bv
Agrlppa in B. C. q, and, unlike the
more beautiful temple at Athens. is
still in fair state Of preservation.
The Pantheon Is, of course, well
worth seeing. both for its own sake
and on account Of its historic inter
est; but It does not hold the fame
belonging to the Incompatible build
Ing on the Athenian AcropolIs.'

Why WE DErEsr PARASITES
Feeling OF Instructive RevulsIcn Is
justified, for They Are Carriers
Of Disease.

The feeling OF instructive reyulsion
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 tie spread of
disease.
Unfortunately this natural abhor-
renee has not been enough to protect
man under conditions OF poverty and
sncleanliness from harboring such par.
asites. and now those who understand
how much more than mere personal
annoyance Is in question from the ex-
istence OF parasites must take up the
problem TO eradicate them.
The possibility OF the bedhug con.
veying relapsing fever, typhoid and
leprosy has been suggested and ap-
parently there is no parasite of man
that may not be a mode OF disease
conveyance. Flies. hess. 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
American Medical Association.
