Curator Thomas A. James, whose
0iisplay cabinets showing mounted
specimens of Names wild animals and
birds amid setting cleverly Stimulating
their characteristic natural haunts are
always favorite attractions for viSi-
tors at the State museum, is now
working on a new exhibit that in
many respects will be as elaborate and
striking as any that he has made. In
this display will be shown the pick of
all the Maine seabirds in the posses
sion of the museum. also some new
specimens, and nests with eggs. The
case occupies position near the west
wall of the museum room and faces
the windows. 1t measures about is
feet in length and IL feet in height.
For the background Mr.. James has
painted a most artistic marine view,
showing rocky lodges. breaking waves
and a cloud -fecked sky. The fore
ground represents the typical nesting
place of the birds that frequent the
shores of our State. The painted rocks
in the middle distance merge into a
foreground of real stones, which form
the base of the display. and so real
istic is the painting that. from little
distance, the eye can hardly distin
guish the dividing line between the
real and the pictured. On each side
are jagged cliffs, fashioned from paper
mache by Mr.. James, and painted in
natural tints. A plate glass front will
protect the exhibit.

It is probable that City Marshal TN-
Ter is the only Augusta citizen who can
show dahlias in blossom out of doors,
but he has the goods at his home on
Sewall street and is proud to show
them to his friends. There is a story
which goes with the presence of the
flowers in his garden at time that is
decidedly early for dahlias, and the
marshal is happy to tell it to any of
his friends who are interested in f1ori-
culture, or to show the plants and
blossoms. The plants are short and the
blossoms smaller than those which
come later in the season but the col
ors are just as pretty as if the blossoms
are larger.

SLEEP ESSENTIAL
FOR CHILDREN

An interesting article is written oy
Roger H. bennett, NJ. D.. on how to
bring up delicate" children, OF whom
there seem to be large number IN
this country. Among other things he
says:
Although delicate children do not
require any more sleep than healthy
children, they often get less, and their
sleep may be interrupted by dreams
and other manifestations of their ner-
vous make up it is particularly deslr-
able that such children should be put
to bed early in the evening. at least by
O'Clock, before they are allowed to
become excited by callers or even the
usual family life. a nap should be IN
sisted upon each day. and even If the
child will not sleep, he should be re-
uuired to lie down after the noon meal,
for at least an hour. "-Woman's Home

Fly Bibliosraphy

The literature of the house-fiy has
extended to such dimensions since re-
sponsibilty was fixed upon the insect
for carrying microbes which occasion
various diseases, that it is interesting
to have a medical officer Of health's
experience in investigating the subject
13 years ago.
DIR. J. I. &. Nash, medical officer OF
health for the county of Norfolk, En-
land, in a recent address remarked
how his attention had been drawn to
the association of infantile mortality
from diarrhoa with fy-infested houses
so far back as 1901. After putting for
ward his views at conference on in
fantile mortality at Chelmsford in 1902,
he went to the British Museum TO
study the literature of the house-ny.
and found that there was no British
work extant on so common an object.
The only publication which he had
been able to find was a pamphlet by
an American, dated 1872, and two Con-
tinental papers, bound together, dated
1896. DR.. Nash added that the first
work on the biology of the house-hy
was published by the University Of
Liverpool ir 1907.
Since then the stream Of books has
been flooding full and free. 1t includes,
if we remember, an apology for the
house-f1y by a writer who felt that
the anti-fy crusade was being over
done. The boom was a bore!
The danger is a daily menace, and
the crusade must die with the vogue.
DR.. Nash's remarks are welcome as
putting before his hearers the new
subject in proper perspective. The
risk is as real as the chances of war,
and may cost in the long run far r,'nrA
