FLY-TIME

Dr. Wiley, our foremost expert in the pure food crusade, is responsible for the following:
 -Four flies, which had forced their entrance into a certain pantry. were bent upon having feast. One flew to the flour and ate heartily; but soon died, for the flour was loaded with plaster of paris. The second perched himself on the sugar can; but he fared no better, for the sugar was full of white lead. The third decided to sam. pie the sirup, which stood temptingly near; but his legs were shortly raised toward the ceiling, for the sirup was colored with anilin dyes. The fourth and only surviving one had been CO., quettishiy towering around different receptacles, apparently unable to choose. But finally overcome with grief at the death of his friends, he also decided to end his life and drank deeply of the fly-poison which he found in a convenient dish. But he is still alive and in excellent health
 "The fly poison, too, was adultera ted"

INSTRUCTING THE BLINDS TO DO
 USEFUL WORK

I NEW YORK, Aug. 9.-Realizing that one of the most acute problems of the war is the necessity of provid. ing for the thousands of blind soldiers Dr. Schuyler S. Wheeler. long interest ed in the blind, recently set about finding a means of their earning their livings. Hitherto the blind have made baskets, brooms, chairs, and other simple objects, but these were more costly than machine made articles and were only bought by charitably in- clined persons. Dr. Wheeler sought to find a place in the work-a-day world where the labor of the blind would command a price for articles universally needed. His \ successful solution of the problem is best ex- plained by himself
 l "I knew that the blind must be taught to do necessary work" he said "or they would not fill a recognized place in the economic scehem. l felt that this was of vital necessity, be- cause there will be thousands of blind soldiers after the war. For long time I studied various scehemes and it was only about two months ago that solved the problem I was walk ing through the winding room of the Crocker-Wheeler Company, electrical machinery manufacturers of Ampere, N. J., when I noted the work of the employees, many of whom are wo- men. They wind with insulating tape the coils used in armatures and similar apparatus, and soon realized that their touch was more important than their sight.
 "The eyes of the blind being in their fingers, made up my mind that the blind do theis work, of which there is practically an unlimited amount and which must be done. Two months ago founded the Double Duty Finger Guild at 22 Park Avenue, Ampere, and induced a few blind men to take up the work. Under the instructions of winding expert the ysOon learned the trade and now there are more than a score and others coming in as soon as there is room for them. Among the blind are three colored mtn and three women, all of whom are doing excel lent work Owing to their de1terity and willingness to take pains, the work of these blind is every bit as good as that of the workers who have their sight. The most important thing is that they earn fair wages and can support themselves at a trade neces' sary to the electrical industry"
 Blind soldiers from the Armies of the Allies are soon expected to ar rive for training in this work, so that they may return home and teach eth CTS to be self supporting.

CARELESS LIVING

There are more than 600,000 pre- ventable deaths in the United States every year. There are million and half people lying on sick beds in the United States any day in the year who should not have been there. Such are the declarations made in the Univer- sity of California Journal of Agricul. ture by the distinguished economists Irving Fisher, professor of political economy in Yale university.
 Human life Is needlessly shorten ed at least fifteen years in the United States" declares Professor Fisher. Moreover preventable diseases. even when not fatal, cripple the power to work and mar the joy of living. l ven ture the opinion" he says, "that the average man or woman in the United States is not doing half of the work nor having half of the joy of work of which the human being is capable"
 While there is now decreased loss of life from infection by the germ diseases, there is an increased loss of life after middle age from the degen- erative diseases, such as hardening of the arteries or Bright's disease. Neglect of individual hygiene is de. clared by Professor Fisher the chief cause of this degenration, and he urges every one to observe absolute cleanliness, to eat the proper foods, to work hard, but to play and rest and sleep, too, and to avoid worry.
 "The secret of life and happiness" says Professor Fisher, "seems to in taking one life and work cheerfully. Almost any one can assume this at- titude if the proper desire is present" ]"

Huntington, w. Va, June 19-That
the Chesapeake & Ohio railroad COM
pany may seek aid Of the National De-

OF certain passenger trains denied by
the state public service commission
following the railroads formal petition
and protests of interested citizens and

day.
A conference was held at White Sui

flcials of the railroad with regard to
the situation, and 1t was an open Sc
cret here that the officials had under
consideration an appeal to the defense
council. The only other recourse the
railroad would have, should 1t decide
to contest the ruling of the commits
sion, would be the state circuit courts
and thence possibly to the supreme
court.
An Alabama railroad recently car
ried to the supreme court state CON-

to cancellation Of passenger trains.
The railroad officials take the posi-.

trains is not undertaken Of the rail.

of the national council Of defense
which issued general instruction
through the railway commission Of

ton Chamber of Commerce, among 9TH
err organizations which protested
against the proposed cutting Of Of GER
tain Chesapeake & Ohio trains, took
the position that the abolition Of GER
tain trains would injure rather than
aid the movement of coal from which
the Chesapeake & Ohio derives Its
chief revenue.

The political outlook in ST. Mary's seems,
according to those we'll informed, to be shaping
up in most gratifying manner as far as the
Democrats are concerned There is an almost
universal demand that leaders Of the two promi-
nent factions shall put aside thei: petty differ
ences and personal preferences and assist in the
selection Of men to represent the county whose
ability and integrity are above any factiona
preference. That the leaders are not only will
ing, but are anxious for a united stand has been
boldly expressed more than once during the last
few days. The party means to unite to the end
that those who represent the county in the next
General Assembly shall be emminently fitting
for the grave responsibility that confronts not
alone the State Of Maryland, but the nation as
well, at this critical time.
