Flies Responsible

hat the fly is responsible for that
dread disease of children. infantile
paralysis, was demonstrated more
then year ago. Now ST Louis
pr ysician claims to have traced it still
further and finds that the flies them
selves are infected in the larvae stage
through infected fowls, says the Phil
adelphia Press.
We all know that the fly is to Re
dreaded, but we would be loath to
believe that the domestic fowl is 4
source of danger to the health OF
youns children. 1t cannot be if the
children are protected from flies and
if the flies themselves can find no
waiting hen manure in which to de
post their eggs. In other words.
cleanliness is the sovereign preveh-
tative OF infantile paralysis, as it IS
70, many other diseases.
Sweep up promptly and cover Sc
c,irely all kinds of foulncss in which
flies breed and there will be no flies,
and the disease which they commune
cate will die out. Cleanliness is not
only next to godliness. it is a condi-
ton OF health while foulness is the
cirec. agent of sickness and death.

Lies Troubles

Undoubtedly the troubles of to-day
look large and cause us sorrow, but
after willie many of them are lost
sisht of entirely and finally forgotten.
We all have our troubles, and while
at first glance they may appear to be
olt OF proportion to our deserts, and
we wonder while we are called upon
"a bear them. in reality they are but
the ordinary incidents of life magni-
fed more OF less by conditions, says
the Charleston News and Courier.
Oi course, there are many trials
that come to us from time to time
which are necessary parts OF our ex-
istencc, and these, as rule, are deep
and poignant enough to leave the last
ing i,upIess upon our characters.
They reshape our lives, as it were.
ani matur, us into men and women
better fitted to undertake life's re-
sponsi5il'ties.
It is not these great sorrows, how
ever, that prove harmful to us, but.
rather, the smaller and more trivial
ones with which we are all beset. A
trouble that happens to befall us to-
dav may seem of much larger pro-
portions, perhaps, il we are not in the
proper spirit to meet it than il it came
later on, when we are beginning 10
realize ourselves. a great deal de-
ponds Upon our mental and physical
condition, for if we should happen not
10 be in perfect control of our feelings
we are very sure to magnify any troa-
BILE that may come to us.
We lack the strength of character
t, fight against it or crush it down,
but accept it resentfully and allow It
to prey upon our minds. If, on the
other hand, we were to dissect such
a trial in order to gain better knowl-
edge OF its true character, the chances
are we should realize the folly OF CIV
ing way our feelings.

ferry and plunged off the opposite end
with the wagon and occupants into
the swiftly moving stream. The fer
ryman succeeded in rescuing Mrs.
Damek and the next ones on the scene
saved the seven-year-old girl, but the
swift current carried the baby beyond
the reach of the shore rescuers.
The baby's fluffy clothes acted as a
float and kept the child above water
while being carried swiftly towards
the dam a few hundred feet below
Clam Bradley. a plumber, saw the
child floating in the river and plung-
ed in to rescue her. His strength was
nearly exhausted when he reached the
child, but he succeeded in keeping her
