HoW to Make Fly Paper

The use of sticky fly paper is better
than the use of poison to trap flies.
Once a fly alights on sticky paper he
is pretty certain to stay there until
he dies. If you place a saucer contain
ing poison fly paper and water in the
dining-room window, the flies drink
the deadly stuff but they do not die

men it was inevitable that some should
be disease carriers. The waste matter
which they threw off acted as an in
cubator for the bacteria which it car
ried. Flies and other insects, but es-
pecially flies, swarmed around the filth
sinks and fed. They were a frightful
annoyance at meal time, and they
were the army's most deadly enemy
for they distributed dangerous germs
among all the men. AS a result fever
and bowel diseases became almost an
epidemic. AS a nation we were taught
a solemn lesson about the menace of
insects. Our army medical men learned
more in the Philippines, in Cuba, in
Porto Rico and in the Canal Zone
about the relation of flies, mosquitoes
and lice to the spread Of disease than
had previously been learned in two or
three thousand years.

Uses. Special attention is given to the
sanitary disposal of garbage, of sew

from the camp hospital. Elaborate
means of protection against flies, mos
quitoes, lice and bedbugs are taken
but flies are considered the most filthy
and dangerous from the medical point
OF view.

munity has received a rude shock,
but with time it will be forgotten,
and the liquor outlaws of Jackson
vile and Chattanooga, and the max
ers of the hip-pockes pistols will live
on, and sell their wares, and be con-
sidered respected, we presume.
The time has come to fight liquor
and the pistol to a finish. The man
who sells liquor and the man who
carries and the man who manufac-
lures and sells pistols-all are >"ene-
mics to civilized society and should
be wiped off the map. Too long this
country has been afflicted with these
evils because all state regulations are
void under the interstate commerce
clause of the constitution. But what
about congress? Are the representa-
tives Of the people in congress such
friends of these enemies Of civiliza-
ton that we cannot have the consti-
tuition so amended that these enemies
may be driven from our doors, our
homes, and our state? Where have
they been these many years and
what have they done? Have they
winked at the wine when it was red,
and patted the pistol-toter on the
back? It is time that we elected
some real representatives Of the peo-
pie to congress, men with enough
manhood to join IN the twentieth
century march for law and order and
civilization, and no longer allow "in
terstate commerce" to license crime
and bloodshed in the land.
