Sunshine A GERNnCIDE.

Sunshine is an amazingly potent
.,arrnicide for the farm housekeeper
and in the dairy ana stables, declares
the federal department of agriculture
in a most interesting bulletin issued
recently The practice OF exposing
cooking and other utensils used In
connection with food to direct sunlight
makes use of this fact, although COM
parative1y few appreciate exactly the
work done by the sun in this regard
Probably only those who are acquaint-
ed with tests which have actually been
made realize how quickly sunshine
kills disease germs exposed to it.
Hence the following tests may be gen.
erally instructive and interesting. A
pasty, creamy mass of tuberculous
material, which was proved to contain
uncountable numbers of virulent
+,1hercle bacilIi, was obtained from a
t,,bercuIous COW and spread in thin
smooth translucent layers on sheets of
glass, pieces of wood, and strips OF
muslin Some of the sheets of glass,
pieces of wood, and strips of muslin
were then placed outdoors on mod
erately warm, clear, calm day where
the sun could shine on them, and an
equal number were placed in dark
room After Is minutes exposure to
the sun. the tuberculous material on
the glass, wood, and muslin still con-
tanned large numbers of living. virul-
ent tubercIe bacilli, which were proved
TO be fully capable of causing tuber-
culosis, but after 80 minutes exposure
to the sun no living tubercle could be
found; every test that could be made
proved that they were all dead. The
tubercu1ous material in thin layers on
glass, wood, and muslin, kept in a
dark room, was proved to contain
fully virulent, living tubercle bacilh
after 80 days. The contrast is re-
-markable, tubercle bacilh of the same
kind, on the same kind of material,
diving in a smaller number of minutes
in the sunshine than the number of
DAYS they remained alive in a dark
room. As most varieties of disease
germs are more easily destroyed by
gerInicides than tubercle bacilh, and
as tubercle bacilli. in the thin layers in
which they are likely to adhere to
clothing. blankets, rugs, draperies,
furniture, walls, floors. etc, are killed
by the rays of the sun in less than half
an hour. though they remain alive in
dark places a month and longer, it is

sounds ever effected his nerves in the

UNEASY GUATEMALA.


The Big Row in Europe absorbs at
ances in other parts of the world
which ordinarily would occupy much
space in public attention pass almost
without notice. BY way of illustration
there may be cited the situation at
this moment in Guatemala, where rev.
olutionists are so active that the most
drastic measures have been taken for
their suppression. According to a re-
cent report, coming from Mexico City
where the insurgents maintain a jun
ia, a great many men have been sum-
marily put to death during the past
few weeks, or thrown into prison by
wholesale, and their property confls-
Gated. Two daughters of former
Guatemalan President Barillas (Who
was assassinated in Mexico City some
years ago by Cabrera's emissaries, I
is thought) are said to have suffered
through the dictator's Vaccinations
One of them, it is asserted, was COM
PEELED to give up family jewels worth
a large sum of money. The other,
nun in st. Mary's hospital in San Fran
cisco, received fictitious kilograms in
order, the junta presumes, that she
might be arrested on a charge of con-
spiracy. The movement to overthrow
Cabrera gains Importance steadily, &C
cOrding to the junta, which believes
it will not be interfered with by the
government at Washington, because
the leaders have given assurance that
the persons and property of Americans
and other foreigners will be protected.
All of which again lends emphasis to
the admonition, Thank God for
America!"-Iola Register.

Then you will be travelling a long

with them. And the children who

away from the park. Better take my

are mistaken and without waiting
for Jimmy to answer back, he hur-

Now if you have lived in a beau

streets look very queer when you see
them the first time. At least they
looked queer to Reddy. Queer and
decidedly scary. But he wouldn't adj

He had not gone far. though it like
