Love your dear little country.
Serve her and your dear people and

The will urges King Constantine to
be courageous and patient, for you

WON'T CHECK THEIR BABIES.

churchaoine Mothers Sure They Can
Identify Their Own.
Evanston, Ill.-A proposed system to
check babies during service was re-
sorted to by several mothers at the
Wheaton Methodist Episcopal church
here.
The mothers were willing to have
their little ones cared for in an ante
room by two attendants while they
listened to the sermon, but when they
were aoffered checks as a guarantee
that no mistake would be made when
the babies were reclaimed they OBJ
jected.
The attendants were finally persuad-
ed to take care of the infants without
handing out checks for them. being
assured by each mother that there
would be no mistake made when she
came to claim her own.
The checking concession had been
let by the ladies' aid society of the
church, the members of which desired
to relieve the congregation from the
annoyance of the babies crying.

SHOWS A H0USEFLY
AS LARGE AS A CAT
Model on View at Museum Of
Natural History.

New York. Many sights may be
seen in the new hall of public health.
lately opened by the American Muse
UNI of Natural History. which have
more relation to the affairs of every
day life than many of the scientific
treasures which the big institution
houses elsewhere. The principal fig
ures of this newest exhibit are not pre-
historic monsters, but tiny and famil-
lar insects of contemporaneous human
interest-the fly, the mosquito and the
flea.
A housefly as big as a fair sized cat
occupies the place of honor in the col
lection. This model has cost nine
months Of work and study on the part
of lgnasz Matausch. Hungarian mod
ell maker in the service of the museum
It is constructed on scale of $4,000
times the size of the living insect. and
the proportions have been preserved
with the minutest care, Mr. Matausch
having made his drawings and casts
for the head, body and various mem
bers of the insect from dissection.
Larvae and pupae of the fly are
shown in models nodded on the same
scale. as are the eggs. which appear as
little cucumber shaped pieces of paraf-
fin about two inches long. A real fy's
egg is just about visible to the naked
eye.
The same artist has painted an en-,
largement $500 diameters, of the
hairy foot of the fly, showing the ty-
phoid bacilli, of which the insect is
the common carrier. on the clawlike
tip of the member
