while to carry on these campaigns with

the remainder will multiply with aston

The point has been made that the prize
competition for the most flies killed by
the children Is a dangerous thing, since
children who have been handling the
flies will get disease germs on their
hands, and that unless their hands are
washed the germs may get into their
mouths by way of food. This danger ex-

policy.
The progressive generalissimo had
probably rehearsed the part he
played. His manner and words indi-

he was on the eve OF being un-

sidestepped plain and proper ques-

desires. Perkins, the capable man of
affairs, who under a third Roosevelt
administration would shape the whole
trust policy of the government.
And has Mr.. Perkins always re-

method. Thus two operations were
performed, one in October, 1910, and

The despair of the poor fellow on
recognizing that he had been depriv-

eventually evolved rude apparatus

Tapia, and the surprise of all pres

sang some couplets from well-known
