Persepere nth Remedies.

One of the troubles in the way Of keeping
flies under Is that so many persons fail to
appreciate the danger OF their presence
and to exert themselves to exclude and to
kill them. For 80 long we have taken flies
for granted that 1t Is difficult now to con-
vince US that they are so harmful as scien-
lists would have US believe. Even II We
accept the theories in their disfavor We are
careless about them and let the insects
creep in through our heedlessness.
Other vermin we look upon with less pa
tience-roaches and water bugs, for exam
pie. Yet these DO far less harm than flies.
for although II is not pleasant to find them
running over the food in the pantry or to
discover that our linen has been gnawed
by them, the fly is much more dangerous as
a housemate.
Even IL your kitchen has been altogether
or comparatively free from bugs and ants
during the winter they. too, feel the ep-
proach OF spring and present themselves
with cheerful promptness Unless you wish
to be overrun by them don't let them get
a fair roothold in the house. Mix borax and
sugar and strew 1t in the corners OF the
kitchen, by the sink. on the pantry shelves
