HORSE FAMOUS IN HISTORY.
The Remarkable Story Of vsilIantiff,
the Steed Roland Rode.

From the ninth century the horse
began figuring prominently in history,
and the many signs Of intelligence he
displayed have been chronicled in ro-
mances, in odes, and in many other
historical writings.
1t was In this century that the first
allusion to horse racing, as we under
stand Ii, and to running" horses, as
race horses continued to be called for
many centuries afterward, Is TO be
found in history when Hugh, the
founder of the royal house of Caput in
France, made Il present Of running
horses to King Athestan in the hope
that in return the king might allow
him TO wed his sister, Ethclswtha.
AT this period Ilengist and Ilorsa
are said by some historians To have
displayed interest in horse racing. but
the statement is not based upon in
diSputable evidence and more than the
assertion that, because Hengist and
Horsa are alleged by one hist orian at
least to have given the order that
forms Of horses should he cut upon the
chalk hills of Berkshire. therefore the
Saxon banners must have borne us n
device Il white horse.
The white horse at Vantage other
historians declare To have been cut in
commcmnration of Alfrpd's great vie
tory over the Danes nj the battle of
AeScendun or AShtrechill during the
reign of his brother. Ethclrrd !. Its
length is :iTl feet. ana even at Il dis
tancc OF nearly fifteen miles 1t is dis
Iinctly visible in clear weather.
II was about this period. says the
Detroit Free Press, that the immortal
Roland and his equally famous horse
Neillantiff, are mentioned in history,
though owing to the pair having fig
ured so largely in romance the actual
truth about them can be traced only
with difficulty.
Roland is said To have been eight
feet tail. and all descriptions of Veil
lantiff show him to have been of pow
crful proportions. which would be re-
quircd To carry such Il heavy burden.
Itoland'S horse must have been IN in
comparable charger and more intclli-
gent than even his master. for il is re-
lated that whenever Roland WAS hard
pressed NcillantifI obtained knowledge
OF the fact In some mysterious way
and ut once carried Roland out of dan
ger as far as he was able.

THE TYPHOID FLY

The typhoid or housefly' Is the name
which through the agricultural depart
ment the United States government
has given this dangerous insect. Health
departments Of North Dakota, Michi-
gan and Virginia have prosecuted cam
paigns against the fly. Bulletins and
placards containing startling headlines
have been distributed throughout these
states. ON the roads or in the public
buildings one sees such warnings as
this: "Flics Poison Food" IL might be
said that every state In the Union has
at some time waged war against this
insect. The Filthy Fly" is the title Of
a circular sent out by the New York
state board of health. In the state Of
New York there are several societies
which have for their object obliteration
Of the disease breeding fly.
Some half dozen years ago the Mer-
chants association committee was
formed to investigate the pollution Of
the waters of New York state. Their
work brought the investigators to the
docks along the river front OF New
York city. where the garbagc of the
city IL loaded on scows. Edward Hatch.
Jr.. and Dr. Daniel d. Jackson. two OF
the committee, noticed the great num-
Der of flies thereabouts. 1t was sought

at the docks, and hundreds Of other

traps in different parts of the city. The
examination Of the legs of the captured
dies for disease germs was ash easy
matter. The city's health statistics
also were examined. and il was ascer-
tanned that fearful mortality from
typhoid fever prevailed within the
neighborhood in juxtaposition to the
garbage docks. When this fact was
discovered no time was lost in ac-
quainting the public of sthe fact and
methods were taken to improve condi-
tons.
In other places 1t was soon seen that
the epidemlcs OF typhoid were directly
due To the fly.
An ingenious method for teaching
children facts regarding flies is pre-
pared by Jean Dawson of the Clcve-
land Normal school, who has adopted
the question and answer plan of in
struction After explaining why flies
are dangerous, how they spread dis
ease where they spend the winter and

Some of the questions and answers
are ms follows:
Can a family escape the dangers from
flies by screening them out?
No. not IL they use food over which
flies have swarmed or fallen into.
DO flies carry sickness and death to
many people in the United States?
There are nearly 100000 cases of ty-
phoid fever yearly in the United States
aud nearly 10000 deaths. Many of these
are caused by flies. Forty-nine thou

WAT the hy!" is the rallying
slogan of the country wide
war which now Is being
waged against the seeming
ly inofrensive insect, In reaIity)one
of the most dangerous means OF the
spread OF disease.
1t has been felt for long time by
scientists and sanitary engineers that
they had persistent and dangerous
enemy in the hy-that II the spread of
typhoid fever was to be checked the
fly first must be put out Of the way
Not only typhoid, though, is traced TO
final maladies, now are brought di-
rectly home to it, Germs Of tubercu-
losis, cholera infantum, spinal menin-
gifts and infantile paralysis also are
carried by the little pest.
The warnings these scientists and
engineers have been circulating among
the people OF the world have at last
borne fruit, in the United States at
least, for today there Is a mighty eff
fort at determination. Municipalities
and individuals are spending thou
sands Of dollars to kill Off the fly. Fa-
theirs, mothers, sisters and brothers
are enlisted In the swat" army. The
baldheaded man is no longer satisfied
with single annoying catch, which
he succeeded In killing after ire
mendous whack on his unprotected
Uranium that all but stunned him.
Other methods less likely to lead to
an undeseryed punishment are now
employed. Today you will find the
bald pated citizen In the foremost
ranks Of the swatters, as Of yore, but
universal determination" Is his cry,
and trapping and poisoning are added
to his methods of vengeance.
In many cities prizes have been Of
fered for those succeeding in captur-
ing dead or alive" the greatest num-
Der of flies within n specified time.
School children in some places have
been enlisted in the cause and essays
and readings about the fly given out
as lessons.

WAR ON MOSQUITOES

Ii this condition of affairs should
come to pass the health of the world
would be greatly improved, but the
mosquito would still be left to tanta-
lie mankind. However, the destruc-
ton of this insect also has been made
the subject of serious consideration.
The New Jersey health department
has sounded what it hopes will prove
the death knell of this insect Its
breeding places have been attacked.
and good results have been accom-
pllshed. Wealthy Montclair, in New
Jersey, is continuing its crusade with
undated zeal, and not long ago the
health board proceeded against resi-
dent for the alleged maintenance of q
mosquito breeding place on his prop
crty, it being charged that it contained
stagnant water, in which mosquitoes
flourish.
This year Boston. assisted by many
towns close to the Hub, declared war
to the end against the mosquito pest.
The marshes north of the city were
held to he largely responsible for the
millions Of mosquitoes which invaded
that city every year. In an attempt
to get rid of this nuisance arrange
mcnts were made to drain the marshes.
