1t has been said truly that many o

things; this statement certainly ap
plies TO disease. Many diseases are
borne by dies, and the flies are little
things producing big effects in tbs
health of a community. Besides theiI
disease carrying capabilities, flies are
disgusting pest. They feed and wal
low in the filth of all sorts, and be
come covered with germs which are
growing and living in such filth, they
proceed to our food, and to the food
of our children, and contaminate 1t
This infected food we eat and drink
aud in this way disease is kept cir
culating from one person or animal
to another in a never ending cycle
One has only TO watch them swarm
ing around, attracted by the garbage
can or by manure or filth, and then
to observe them feed on our food and
battle their filthy feet in a pitcher OF
milk, or walking upon the sugar, or
Sprawling In the jam. Or look al
them on the window pane, or feel
them buzzing around our mouths and
eyes. Glance at the glass of the win
dow and see the marks they leave,
Do they leave the same marks on our
faces and ON our food? They infect
the food, and our children ole. 1t Is
not the food that kills our infants
but the flies marks upon ii.
