AT Kulpmont Pa, while Anthony YER

bered that Anthony had not given her a
gold necklace as he had promised. She

she would never marry such forgetful
man, tore up the marriage license, threw
the ring in the gutter and started for home.
Basil Dizezich, one of Mary'S discarded
suitors, heard OF her action and fastened
to her side with the best gold necklace
purchasable in town and asked her again.
81 have my wedding dress on and every
thing is ready for the ceremony. Come

Ducks VS.. Mosquitoes.

The duck is one of the greatest known
enemies OF the mosquito, and thus OF yell
low fever and malaria. In the Journal of
the American Medical Association, DR..
Samuel g. Dixon. the Pennsylvania COM
missioner OF health, describes expert
ments OF his that subStantiate the fact.
Alter he had made various unsuccessful
attempts TO destroy the larvae by means
OF fish, he divided the stream in which
he was making his experiments into two
parts, each about fourteen hundred square
feet in area. One he protected from the
birds and stocked with goldfish the
other pond was left as feeding ground
for ducks. Both were ideal places for
mosquitoes to breed In the protected
pond the mosquitoes flourished, in the
unprotected they were entirely absent.
Then he put ten well-fed mallard ducks
into the protected pond. Although at
first they fed upon the tadpoleS, they rid
the pond OF pupae within twenty-four
hours; and in forty Eight hours they had
left only few small larvae. The author
says that numbers OF larvae must have
been drowned, owing TO the commotion
the birds raised in the water. "For some
years." says Doctor Dixon, al have been
using ducks TO keep down mosquitoes in
swamps that would have been difficult
and expensive TO drain, but never fully
appreciated the high efficiency of the
duck as destroyer OF mosquito life until
the foregoing test was made.

Says That Corporations Are Trying to
Crush Him.

Governor Henry D. Hatfield OF West
Virginia, in an address a few days ago
before the annual convention OF the Yves
Virginia Federation of Labor, charged
that "the subsidized press OF West Viz
einia" and an unnamed corporation were
endeavoring to destroy his administration.
at is true" the Governor said, 81 am
not admired il is true ] am not courte-
ously treated by the subsidized press of
West Virginia; it is true have been re-
Elected on and maligned; it is true that
every possible effort has been made to
coerce me, but want to say that so long
as keep my health and can stand up for
my rights, shall be fighting for the rights
OF the people.
"No newspaper, subsidized as it may
be, can dictate my principles, or what |
shall do as Governor OF West Virginia.
| do not need, nor do want, their sup
port; what want is the support OF ESQ.,
600 or 100000 people, such as you are,
TO stand up with me and fight for the
rights of men against property rights"
Declaring he was not seeking political
preference, the Governor asked the labor
men to Investigate the newspapers"
He said he had been fighting virtually
alone, but would keep up the tight in the
Legislature and elsewhere.
"When it is all over" the Governor
said in conclusion, "the blame they are
trying to saddle on me will be placed on
the right shoulders, and a Judas. repre-
senting capital above $4,000, 900. will
have TO bear the burden. Unholy ALI
ances that have had the heel of depression

holy purposes in trying to destroy this

Squirrel Wisdom.

Mans superiority over the wild ami
mails is in some respects more imaginary
than real, says the Cleveland Plain Deal
er. The squirrel, for instance. knows
better than to depend on luck from day
to day TO bring him his food in the sea-
son when that food is TO be found only in
storage.
This is the time OF year when the squir-
rel has lesson to teach his proud but
shorter sighted brother of the human
race. All the fall the little bushy tailed
fellow, what time he could spare from
eluding the guns Of hunters licensed by
law, gathered nuts from tree and ground
and put them away safely for the winter
use. He knew, somehow, that a long
season was at hand when nuts could not
be found, when it would be impossible
TO roam at large in search OF provender,
and when, unless he stocked his larder
IN advance, hunger was likely to claim
him victim.
Meanwhile, man lets the season oil
fruit and vegetable plenty 90 by, living
on what the grocer'S boy brings to the
door from day 10 day, subject to every
rise in price, and every fucuatlon IN quail
ity that the market may produce, artlflci-
aily or naturally. He is creature ofcir-
cumstances over which he has no con-
troll.
