Ii YOu Must Drink Booze.
Kansas City Star.

hdllodo SlIJ Db"i'
Mrs. James Watson, editor and
publisher of the Dearborn, Mo-, ,
Democrat, has the following sug-
gestion to make to booze fighters
ITO the married man who cannot
get along without his drinks, we
suggest the following as means
to freedom from the bondage of
the habit. Start a saloon in your
own house. Be the only custo-
mer. You will have no license
to pay. Go to your wife and
give her So to buy a gallon of
whiskey and remember there are
siXty-nine drinks in a gallon.
Buy your drinks from no one eX-
cept your wife, and by the time
the first gallon is gone, she will
have So to put in the bank and
So to start business a ain.
Should you live ten years and
continue to buy booze from her
and then die with snakes in your
boots, she will havemoney to bury
you decently, educate your chill
dren, buy a house and lot and
marry a decent man and quit
thinking about you"

Flies and the Canal Zone.

At first the cry of Swat the
Fly" was treated as a joke; but
the newspapers gradually educa-
ted the public to the realization
of the danger to health when
flies fresh from the privy and
other disease breeding place S
were permitted to swim in the
cream and crawl over the butter
and other food. The way disease
start and spread is so we'll known
now that to let flies have access
to food stuffs is nothing short of,
of-well- something ugly.
When the French undertook to
build the Panama canal, the
workmen "died like flies" in the
district through which the canal
was being dug. and the project
had to be abandoned. To-day
the canal zone is fully as health
full as here in Fulton county.
Why? Well, it was because, first
of all, the stagnant' pools where
mosquitoes breed, the filth places
where flies lay their eggs, were
thoroughly cleaned up-only this
and nothing more. Swat the fly.
