NOT so SLOW

"Yes," said the old man to his vis- itor, 'I am proud of my girls and would like to see them comfortably married, and as have made little money they will not go penniless to their husbands. There is Mary, 25 years old, and really good girl, I shall give her $1,000 when she marries. Then comes Bet, who won't see 35 again. I shall give her $3,000 when she marries; and the man who takes Eliza, who is forty, will have $5,000."
 The young man reflected moment and then asked: "You haven't one about 50, have you?"
 A light heart and an empty head never knows sorrow.

TIE SINGING DEMON.

MOSQUITOES bite us only as a
last resort-when they are un-
able to find another kind of prey.
You may doubt this, but it comes
from the man who is supposed to
know more about mosquitoes than
anyone else in the world. He is
DIR. W. Rudolfs, scientist on the
payroll of New Jersey.
Rudolfs' Investigations show that
a mosquito will pass up a human any
day for horse, COW, dog, rabbit
any kind of animal life except chick
ems and ducks. Just why they steer
clear Of fowls is unknown. When
science finds out il. may open the door
to immunization Of the mah-animal

EDITORIAL
WHY THE LABOR BOARD?
DRESlDENT HARDING seems t.

DRESlDENT HARDING seems to
be attempting to negotiate a
peace without victory. In other
words, in his latest appeal to the
two sides in the railroad strike, he
is asking them to throw the whole
controversy back into the lap Of the
Labor Board.
But that is where it was when
the shopmen issued their ultimatum
and walked out Of the shops. That
is where it reposed when the rail
road executives allowed the men to
walk out without an apparent will
ingnesss to meet the test.
Just what the Labor Board could
DO with this controversy that other
than what has already been aecomp-
lished, is hard to state If both
sides are unwilling to concede a VIC
tory, with conditions as they are
now, it is hard to see what influence
the board could bring to bear to ell
force 4 settlement once the matter
reverted to them and the men were
back at work
1t is a hard thing to say but, 1t
would seem that the time and place
for the railroads and the men tc
settle their grievances and arrive at
a permanent settlement is while thew
are in opposite camps. What use to
throw the whole matter hack onto
The Labor Board only to face an in,
evitable ultimatum from one side OF
the other in another six months and
have the whole sorry mess to go
through with again.
Settle it now, settle it right and
let's get back on the job and help
fire the engine CT prosperity that
IL slowly climbing back up the grad
of normal business conditions.

Here's a riddle of nature: The
mosquito never feeds when the at
mosphere's humidity is under 40. It's
appetite goes up with the barometer.
The mosquito is a biting fly 1t
catches from gigs laid IL sttgHpn,
water. It's life is only few months.
Some kinds, however, live all sum-
mer. Others hibernate through the
winter, in worm stage, and emerge
IN spring from ice in which they
have been frozen solid. With yitali-
ty like that, no wonder they are so
hard to exterminate.
The song of the mosquito-sad-
dest music that ever reached human
ears a sort of lung and throat
Ilrasp caused by breathing. Flies are
different, their hum is caused by
fast whirring of their wings-like an
airplane propeller.
No public problem is more press

The mosquito, however, is not ar
