craze has seized the young
women of England. They want
to become fashion mannequins

A London newspaper is con-
Quoting a mannequin contest in
conjunction with England's most
fashionable dressmaking estab-

cants from all parts Of the
British Isles. Those aspiring to
become fashion models are re-
quired to send in their photo

description of facial features or
details of any special qualifica-

The best London couturiers
declare that the mannequin Of

mere prettiness of face and
grace Of figure are no longer
enough for the efficient display

ONCE WEALTHY BRITISH
WOMAN DIES PAUPER

ATLANTIC CITY. June 15.-Her
income from property in England
wiped out by German air raids
during the war, Miss Ada Berwick,
sixty, and once wealthy resident
or the resort, died penniless at the
home Of William Watson, a watch
man who befriended her. Heart
disease was given as the cause of
death.
For several years Miss Berwick
took a leading part in resort society
and entertained extensively at her
home on States avenue. The
greater part of her income came
from inherited property in England
and this was cut off when Zeppelins
destroyed it during air raids. She
was a relative of Lord Gordon.

for pike. Then he decided it
was too hot to fish and that he
would sleep for a couple OF
hours.
He .rowed his boat to a shady

into the water, placed the rod
across the seat and stretched
himself out for q nap.
An hour later Cap awoke and
found his boat in the center of

and found there was a fish on
the hook. He angled for half
an hour and brought a large
turtle to the boat.
The turtle had lowed Cap

How in the wide world did the idea ever start
that we should be complaisant when we had
slOatted the fly-crushed him-and perhaps
left his germ-reeking remains hanging some
where7 Did it ever occur to you that the fly
not only carries disease germs on its feet but
may have on and in its body as many as
thirty million bacteria?
Think of your home getting its ventilation
through screened doors and windows on which
billions of germs may have been spread with
that supposedly splendid device, the fly swatter!
Flies have been implicated in the spreading Of
infantile paralysis, typhoid scarlet fever, measles,
smallpox, erysipelas, anthrax, and even tubercu-
losis!
Don't swat the fly. Don't haze flies. On your
own premises prevent the breeding of flies
destroy their eggs. And those that get into
your house, kill cleanly. Do you ask how?
With Prevented, the wonderful insecticide that
is sprayed.
You can't imagine anything more simple to use
than Prevented. Close up tightly one room at
a time and then spray well. That's all there is
to it. In five short minutes every fly will be
dead-not swatted, not mangled or smeared,
but killed cleanly-and the carcasses, with all
their disease-carrying possibilities, can be swept
out of the house.
And don't forget to literally spray with Prevented
any nearby places where flies may breed
garbage pals, refuse heaps, and dark corners
of stables and buildings. single fly in
six weeks time can be responsible for several
hundred pounds Of flies, and around your gar
bage pail there may be thousands of fly eggs.
