Americas Great Men;
Nails Fastened by Masters.

solomon. the inventor Of wise sayings,
There Is hope for men or for the nation
mat can be stirred by wisdom.
me latter part Of the text refers TO
nails fastened or driven by masters.
Nails hold building together. The
words Of the wise hold society. institu-
lions, and nations together. Nails driven
oy wise men hold society up to that high
standard that makes for righteousness
and integrity. Nails driven by wise men
unite nations in one solid body.
IL Is discouraging thing to the wise,
however. that men slowly absorb truth.
IL takes long time for an idea to be-
come a part Of the peoples thought.
Great men have suffered, have sacri-
hced comfort, and even life, to make
men think. Moreover very little has
been dipped from the great reservoir Of
truth. Unreasonable IN its depths, with
new wonders yet to be discovered by fu-
ture generations. But what has been
gained has been. bought with q price and
that price has often meant the sacrifice
OF life. II has meant that those who have
discovered truth have not been under
stood and they have suffered and. In turn,
those who might have been benefited by
such truth have suffered because they
were so slow IN sppropriating II. Truths
have been beaten in, marched In, burnt
in, shot In. tortured in-driven in by the
sword-before men have seen them in all
OF their full signifcance and beauty. The
bards, patriots, martyrs, sages, the hero
ic Of all ages, whose deeds crowd his
torys pages and Times great volume,
make. rarely receive their reward in life
II Is only after their martyrdom that men
have seen them in their true statue and
in their real greatness.
Truth is never seen 80 clearly as that
truth which IL seen through tears, or,
through the white life Of some martyr.

GARDENS HELPED
BY OPPORTUNE RAIN
Gould Not, Have Been Better
for the Blooming Home
Plots of the City
Growers.

The heavy rain which was accom-
panied by severe electrical distur-
bance Monday night did a world Of
good to city gardens in general and
to the fast growing potato crop in
particular. The tubers are now Just
coming into blossom and the mois-
ture could not have come at a more
advantageous moment for potatoes.
The rain was general over the east
ern part of Nebraska, extending into
Iowa considerable distance.
The recent heat wave which has
been general in Nebraska for a week
or more is making the corn fields of
the rural district fairly jump out Of
the ground, farmers assert. Oats, also
are coming fast, standing about a
foot high at present,
The Boy Scout garden. which is
located in the southwest portion of the
city, will be given thorough trim
ming this week, the garden having
been somewhat neglected by the
Scouts during the recent Red Cross
campaign.
While potatoes in general will hard
ly be ready for consumption by the
first of July gardeners are inclined
to allow the spuds to attain full
growth before they are harvested. In
view of the fact that majority of the
city gardens were planted by the
near-farmers more with the idea of
doing their "bit" than reaping any
great harvest, it would hardly be
patriotic to rob the tubers of their
full growth, the gardeners aver.
Cherries of the early variety are
now in condition to be picked and
housewives are urged by commission
men to save all their glass bottles and
any vessel than can possibly be used
as fruit canning jar. Glass jars are
due for raise in prices, while the
canning factories of the country have
already began curtaling their out
puts, due to the shortage of tin.

FLY TIME HERE; ALSO
TIME TO SWAT FLIES
Two Flies Married on July /
Would Increase to 1,700,-
100000 by About
August 10.
By A. r. GROH.

An Omaha woman writes asking
me to tell something about flies ant
how TO get rid of them.
| gladly respond to this request
for he who can make only one fly
grow where two flies grew before is
benefactor of the race.
Swat the fly" is little cry that
rightfully takes its place beside those
other battle cries, DO your Xnas
shopping early" and Buy Liberty
bond"
Swat the ayw All, this nimble
insect takes a lot of swatting, But
"a swat in time saves nine million.
"Why?" you ask in astonishment,
why these immense and startling
figures?"
. And answer, because of the i'm
mense and startling birthrate among
the pesky insects"
Suppose two flies meet, plight their
troth, get married and set up house
keeping in a garbage can or other
nice location on July |. On July 10
Mrs. Fly will present her husband
with 200 cunning little babies.
These grow up so rapidly to hy-
hood and get married to other flies
that by July rs the original Mr.. and
Mrs. Fly have 10000 grandchildren.
These set up Housekeeping in due
time and by August 10. Mr.. and Mrs.
Fly's children, grandchildren and
great grandchildren number S,040,2O0
and by August 10 the descendants of
the original pair number almost L.
700OO0,000, buzzing happily from the
garbage can to your pantry and back
again.
This would be the number of de-
scendants from single pair in less
than two months if none of them
died. However, the mortality is
great.
Many are swatted. Some are
caught on fly paper and in traps.
Others are eaten by bigger insects or
birds or are caught by Fido in
lucky snap. Still others eat too much
candy and succumb to acute indiges-
ton
These 1,7OO,O00,0OO flies, if placed
end to end. would make line reach
ing from Kalamazoo to Walla Walla,
Wash, and leave enough over to
make another line from, Keokuk to

Covering for Cakes.
It would take 100000 pitchers
of milk to drown them in Counting
100 flies to each pitcher) They
could completely cover 100000
chocolate layer cakes.
swat them and could swat two at each
swat he would have to swat for a
number of years to get them all
swatted
Now word as to how to get rid of
them. OF course, they can be
drowned in pitchers Of milk, but this
is unsanitary and is not practiced in
well-regulated households.
There is very good fly powder
on the market. 1t is applied with
small brush made of the tail feathers
of the wild gazookus. The use OF
this powder is extremely simple. The
fly is caught and held by the left
wing. A small bit of the powder is
then taken on>the brush and applied
to the epiglottis OF the insect. The
fly is then released.
In ninety-four cases out of 100,
(according to government tests,)
the powder results fatally to the fly
in twenty-four hours. Experts can
treat as many as seventy-hve flies per
hour.
