A FLYLESS PULLMAN

ternational Harvester company:
Thousands die every year from
disease carried by flies, yet we still
look upon 1t as an annoyance to be
Tolerated, not as death-dealer to be
exterminated. Typhoid fever, tuber-
culosis, summer complaint, cholera,
and intestinal diseases follow closely
in the trail of the common house or
typhoid fly. You are ashamed to toll
crate bedbug or body louse-one fly
Is more loathsome and dangerous
than a hundred bedbugs or body lice.
DR.. Crumbine of the Kansas State
board of health has shown us that
flies rob the world of its babies dur
ing the months of July and August.
DR.. Dawson, the one who made Cleve-
land practically flyless, issued a fly
catechism, and one of the questions
and answers is as follows How
many flies may breed from a pair
In spring?' The answer is: Allow
ing six patches of eggs OF $50 each.

to bury the entire earth AZ feet
deep Let us be thankful there are
not enough filth piles in the world
to permit this condition.
We could go on almost indefi-
nitely, telling about the terrible foe
that the fly is. But this ought to be
enough for us to realize that the
lily Is a product of filth. And if
there are flies then there is filth
somewhere, and almost everywhere.
One little incident noticed a few
days ago illustrates strikingly the
necessity for care and cleanliness
In a certain alley a horse was
htched for short time. The
droppings were not removed for a
day or SO, and when the man did so.
ne discovered to his amazement that
the small pile of manure was liter

was needed was to bury the offai,
Otherwise the flies born there would

the dining room and carried deadly
germs. IL we but realize that flies
are evidence OF filth | think we win
soon awaken to the need to clean
up and to keep clean. Other places
have been made practically flyless.
Even a city as large as Cleveland
Ohio with all its piles of garbage
and amount OF waste, was made
virtually flyless, and that chiefly
through the efforts of one woman

Let US then develope a commun

New Profession for Women.

Why may college women not estab-
lish bookstores in their owr cities
and towns in all parts of the country?
Such stores would meet the need for
q calling, and should yield a fair In
come. The wares are familiar to
these women, who have at least a
cultivated interest in them. Periodi-
calls, music. photographs and other
art products could be added to the
stock. aEd the desire for eocial serv-
ice could he met naturally by making
the store center where people could
meet, where they could examine books
and periodicals while waiting, and
where public opinion could be formed.
The store might also sell tickets for
concerts and lectures; and the right
woman could exercise a large IN
fuence in directing the public taste
in these matters.
II is clear that such enterprises, as
In the case of the librarians 80 years
ago and of the more recent social
workers, would have not only to fur
nish what the public needs, but would
also have to educate the public to
want what 1t needs. This would re-
quire skill and technical knowledge,
exactly as in the case of the libraries
and the social service movement, and
special schools would have to be de-
veloped to meet this need.-Atlantic

User has taught the strength of a
water defense above all others. For
this purpose, as is well known, the
so-called "waterline" has been brought
into readiness. But a great deal OF
fighting might take place upon the
endless tracts of meadows which lie
all around the capital of the kingdom.
The trenches which will here be con-
structed will be arranged in such q
way that at a moments notice they
can be turned into flooded ditches.
In the warfare in France and Rus
sia a conquered trench means an add
ed strength for the enemies. who i'm

when It is necessary to abandon them,
will almost automatically become a
deep flooded ditch, which will be no
use to anyone and will merely form
another obstacle on the way forward.

Goldfish Market swamped.

A big thrush of Goldfish along the
northern and eastern coasts during
the latter part of June caused salt
famine in the Ancient Colony. The
salt used by the Newfoundland fisher
folk for curing their catch is obtained
from Trapani in Sicily and Cadiz in
Spain. Practically all the salt in the
island has been absorbed, and 1t is
claimed that about $4,000 tons more
could be advantageously used II 1t
we're available. At least this guam
tity, and probably more, has been
ordered. and should arrive during the
next month, but much of 1t will come
to hand too late to be of any real serv-
ice. This shortage of salt is likely to
affect the banking fleet also. which
has had exceptional good fortune In
It's earlier voyages this year. The
average price of cod paid last year
and the year before, both in New
foundland and Nova Scotia, was about
$3.50 per quintal, but with foreign
markets as they are at present 1t is
hoped that at least another twenty
five cents per quintal may be OBJ
tanned. The fact that fish of late are
so plentiful is inducing industry, and
also stimulating smaller operators TO
prosecute the shore fishery more ex'
tensively.

SWISS ARE WELL PROTECTED
Alpine Passes Could Be stormed only
In Single columrs at Tre-
mendous Risk.

National defense is no light burden
upon a state OF less than 100000
inhabitants. although the nature OF
the country lends assistance. The
mountainous boundaries which sur
round the Swiss on three sides are
valuable allies. but the low-lying
country on the north, from Basel to
the lake OF Constance, is seriously
exposed. This is the part which in
the past has tempted the Germans and
French to try flank movements. and
where the Rhine would be only
hindrance, not prevention of inva-
sion. Between 1868 and 1710 at least
seven expeditions OF considerable mil
itary importance marched across that
portion of Switzerland, without re-
gard to the feelings of the inhabitants.
Since 1915 the neutrality of that re-
gicu has been, on the whole, obsei sed,
but the Swiss have maintained the
greatest possible watchfulness during
periods OF war.
The Alpine passes are approached
by fine, broad roads of comparatively
easy grade. and could be readily
mounted by armies and their Grtil-
lery; but this must be done in single
column and the risk to an enemy
would be tremendous. At several
points long tunnels admit railways
and the obstacles to peaceful COM
merce have been removed. No war
has brought the tunnel to the test Of
defence, but every preparation has
been made to stop the entrance of an
enemy. Elaborate fortifcations upon
| the st. Gothard combine both the
road and the railway, while the
Rhone valley is defended by similar
works at st. Maurice and Martigny.
On the southeastern border the
Swiss soldiers must stand within a
few yards of the road md watch the

Stelyio pass at height of 10000 feet.

Along Lake Geneva a wide neutral
zone has been maintained for years,
but the situation is none the less del.
icate between Switzerland and France

language, says writer in Leslies

he bows three times and takes oil his
