IF you think this is one of those

riage. And if one of us finds the other
falling in love with some one else, she
had better not pretend to be refined

she had better trust to her instincts

of them. And because we want to be
very' very happy, we shall probably
have many, many quarrels."

Gives Moths Pneumonia

Giving moths pneumonia and thus
getting rid of them by artificially
creating sort of flu epidemic. is the
latest method of determination being
tried in London.
This requires no meteorological cul-
lures or scientific apparatus. When it
is found that moths have gotten into
an article of clothing it is placed in
refrigerator, left there several days,
then exposed to a temperature of 80
degrees and then again refrigerated.
This gives the moths pneumonia
and kills them all.
