GET AFTER SUMMER PESTS
This 10 the Time to Wage War Against
the Deadly Fly and the An
noylng Mosquito.

Let us bear in mind that one OF
the prime objects of spring cleanup
is to eliminate the fly and the mos
quito. When we are exercising our
muscles and our ingenuity Kidding
our dwellings and neighborhoods OF
dust and filth, it will be worth our
while to give these twin winged pests
serious attention.
The first spring fly. of course, came
some time ago, though she is still
pleasantly modest and retiring. 1t is
not reassuring, however, to reflect
that the little insect is keeping care.
fully out of our sight and the reach
of our swatters while she lays a few
myriads of eggs, which presently will
hatch out into whole flying regiment
of nuisances and disease-carries.
The shy and unobtrusive mosquito
Is making the best use of her time
for the same purpose. When the open
season on human beings arrives she
hopes to have a whole army corps OF
her progeny to lead to the attack.
Now is the time to get busy II we
want to preserve ourselves from the
pests few months hence. The swat
ter and the kerosene can are fully as
important household implements al
this season as the broom and the
scrubbing brush.

Oldest WeIshman.

The oldest Welshman in the world
Is Mr.. Thomas Morris, who lives at
Westernville, Neb. Although he 10
now an American citizen, he was born
subject of George III, at the little
village OF Berriew, Montgomeryshire,
on January 16, 1894. He is therefore
one hundred and twenty years old.
His father was an agricultural Ia
borer and died when the boy was three
years old. Morris was apprenticed to
cobbler and followed his trade in
this country until 1871, when, at the
age of seventy-nine. he emigrated to
America.
The old man is very proud Of the
fact that he has lived in three CEN
turtles. He remembers the union Of
Great Britain and Ireland, the assassi-
nation of President Lincoln and the
laying of the first Atlantic cable.
Morris can still walk with the aid
of a stick and see with the aid Of
spectacles, which he first purchased
after passing his hundredth birthday.
His hearing is good, and he enjoys q
