Flies Cause 100000
Deaths in u. S. YEARLY
Swat The First Ones In Spring And
You Will Kill Bushels or Them.

After a few months of rest we are
again to take up the cudsei against
on old acquaintance, the fly, who, in
his uncounted hordes, is probably the
greatest enemy of man. This one
agent of disease undoubtedly causes
more casualties in the United States
in one year than occurred during the
entire world war from all causes.
No one can accurately tell the full
extent OF the havoc wrought each year
by this insect. We have traced so
many depredations to it's door that
we are afraid to venture into the
realm of conjecture. Nor can dis
ease infection be traced, for it is only
by the elimination of the fly that we
can tell how much sickness is carried
without it's help. 1t is estimated that
between 10000 and 100000 deaths in
the United States annually result
from infection carried by flies.
In current biology we find the fol-
lowing statement:
eff each egg of the common house
fly should develop, and each of the
larvae should find the food and tenn
perature it needed, with no loss and
no destruction, the people OF the city
in which it happened would suffocate
under the plague of flies"
This condition almost now exists
in some of the crowded tenement dis
tricts of our large cities.
AS further verifcation of this con-
dition, let us resort to figures illustrat-
ing the possible multiplication of one
pair of common house-flies beginning
May 1. Allowing ten days for the
development from egg to adult and
another ten before ovipositicn we will
take the average fly which lays $50
eggs in a batch and can be depended
on for six patches.

judge to direct the jury to acquit
Black, on the ground that the evidence
against him was insufficient. After
some argument the judge granted the
motion, and Black now free man,
took his seat in the courtroom among
the spectators.
The defense of the remaining de-
PENDANT, Mr.. Brown, then began.
"Mr. Black, take the stand. said
the lawyer, to the establishment of
everyone in the courtroom, and to the
CONSERVATION of the district attorney.
Mr.. Black calmly ascended the wit
ness stand, and under the careful gu
estlonlng Of his attorney, testified that
he alone had committed the robbery
in question. He described the crime
In great and convincing detail and
completely exonerated his friend
Brown.
The jury, believing his story, there
upon acquitted Brown, and the two of
them walked out of court together
Under the constitutional provision
that no one shall twice be put in jeo-
pardy for the same offense, Black,
having once been acquitted, was i'm
mune from further prosecution.
Brown and Black could not have
known In advance, of course, how the
trial would break. Had they been
compelled to disclose their stories at
the time of their arrest, or to have
revealed their defenses at the time Of
their indictment, Black would not have
dared to admit his guilt, and the judge
and jury would not have been treat
ed to the delightful spectacle of rob-
Der confessing his crime with absolute
lmpunity on the witness stand.

Confessed
Norma Levy in the Saturday
Evening Post.

Several years ago two men were
arrested and jointly indicted for rob-
berry. The prosecutor, as usual, pro-
ceeded to trial without any definite
knowledge as to the defense that was
to be interposed. The evidence hap
pened to be strong and convincing
against one of the defendants, whom
we shall call Brown, and rather weak
against the other defendant, whom we
shall call Black.
At the conclusion of the states case
the lawyer who was defending both
of them rose to his feet and asked tn,

ming with a new A. H. Woods farce
entitled "Oh, Madeline" by Otto
Harbach, who has written many sue
cesses.
This play is said to have been taken
from a continental source. Certainly
its story sounds continental A young

spouse to look after the home and
his business. The husband would like
to go vacationing. too, but not with
his wife. He hits upon scheme. He
engages an actor who bears him
striking resemblance to sit in his
office and sleep at his home during
his absence. Unfortunately the wife
returns Unexpectedly, much to the
embarrassment of the impostor hus-
band. Stirred to anger. she takes
matters into her own hands as only
an impulsive woman can, with the
result that the ensuing complications
are difficult to explain when the real
husband returns.
The cast includes James Gleason,
Allyn King, Teresa Maxwell Conover,
Edna Hibbard, Hobey Cavanagh,
Helen Groody, James Marlowe and
Eleanor Williams. Mr.. Woods will
come personally to see that "Oh,

lieves to be the same as her own.
When she visits the apartment of a
manicurist, to recover money the
girl had filched from her father. she
encounters the lad to whom she is
betrothed. apparently very much at
home. From this situation is built a
forceful dramatic climax.
A noteworthy feature Of tho pro-
gram will be the concert overture
devised by Daniel Breeskin, con-
ductor of the Metropolitan Orchestra.
who has arranged by the Waters of
Minnetonka" to appeal to every mu-
sical taste.

pretative orchestral accompaniment

Poll The Purple Cow"
Says the poet Gelett Burgess, re-
garding the new color, yet royal, he
has given his favorite bovine:
never saw q purple COW,
never hope to see one:
But l can tell you, anyhow,
I'd rather See than he ono

OF course, the childish verse is by
no means an explanation that since
he wrote those rhyming lines he has
since seen a cow in royal purple,
but THE Purple Cow" a musical
comedy inspired by his rhyme, is an
nounced by the Musical Comedy Guild
to open tonight at Polls, where it
will remain for a week.
From the list of stars given out,
from the class of music that Edwin
Helms is known to compose, and the
lyrics that both Miss Carolyn Wells
and Gelett Burgess have welded into
a story. it does not appear to an
ever curious public just what pur-
pie COW can be, of what the uniquely
titled show will unfold.
