some ways more gruesome guests Of the
body than the thirty-foOt tapeworm, for
the reason that they wander at will
through the blood vessels all over the
body. The larval form of these trema-
todcs are always swimming about IN
pools and streams of Japan and noythern
Egypt, where they fasten upon the skin
and mucous membranes of swimmers and
dig right in.
They pass through the blood "essels to
the lungs and heart, the stomach, intes-
tine and portal vein finally settling down
In the liver, where further development
and growth take place. After reaching
full growth they take up their final abode
in the walls of the bladder. Infected
individuals may continue to pass eggs for
thirty years, eventually dying of cyrrhosls
of the liver unless treated.
Other hukes inhabit the liver and bile
ducts after wandering all over the system.
These, too, may enter the body through
insufIiciently cooked fish.
The nematodcs, or round threadiike
worms, include the famous hookworm.
The tiny needle-shaped Larvae of this worm
gets spread upon the ground by unsani-
tary habits of people afflicted with hook
worm.
If the ground is moist they can keep
alive for months waiting for some ones
bare hand or foot to touch the ground.
Instantly they take hold and work their
way through the skin, causing rash and
irritation known as ground Itch" They
wander through the blood and Emphatic
vessels until finally they reach the stomach
and intestines. Then they develop into
full-grown but very small worms and give

done will never meet this guest.
The broad or Russian tapcwOrm is the
champion of them all-thirty feet long.
Man acquires the infection from eating
certain fresh water fish such as pike, perch
and trout, and again il can be prevented
by properly cooking the food. The Rus
sian tapewOrm is rare in America and
England because few fish are eaten raw
or half-cOOked In Russia, Switzerland,
and some other parts Of continental Eu-
rope, where fish are consumed raw or
preserved in various ways uncoOked, it is
common.
The mosquito is no mean rival to the
flea as a pest, and is even superior in some
ways. II you are trying TO sleep in a
boat anchored off the shore, the flea can't
manage to get at you, but the mosquito
can and will, for she has excellent eyes,
ears and sense of smell TO direct her, and
wings to take her to you. Furthermore,
she shows prudence and good judgment in

to the surface to hatch by the scratching
of the victim.
Though the mite cannot crawl out Of
her tunnel she can usually be drawn out.
If pin is gently pOked into the passage
until it touches her, she will seize it and
allow herself TO be pulled forth.
Another worm-shaped mite known as
the "pimple mite" lives in "black-heads"
on the human face, especially beside the
nose.
The harvest mite is a shrewd little bug
which lives on mOles, hedge-hogs, and
other rodents, but always on the look out
to better himself by invading the feet and
hands Of harvest reapers, where it causes
feverish symptoms and intolerable itch
ing.
The habits of the common house-fy are
too well known 70 need description. Its
chief'nterest to man lies in its habits of
flying from filth to food. The hy's sticky
feet, which enable it to walk on the cell
ing, are admirably designed for trans
fcrring disease germs to mans food. The
hOusc-ny, both male and female, is the
microbes chief means Of transportation,
but it never works in the dark.
Another little pest with a strong preju-
dice regarding light is ornithodorous mou-
bata, the tick responsible for spreading
The African rclapsing fever. This tick
lives in the walls, floors, and cracks Of the
houses Of natives along the trade routes,
ready to climb aboard any one who comes
along.
Fortunately, this villain shrinks from
being seen and under no consideration will
he come out in the day time. This light
hating instinct is 50 strong that night lights
are burned by travellers when they sus-
pect their lodgings are infested.
The tapcwOrm is another of the inge-
nuities Of Nature by which snakelike
worm from twelve to thirty feet in length
manages to coil up inside a human being
and get along nicely at his hosts expense
until the doctor takes heroic measures to
get him out.
Taenia solium, which come TO US in
pork, is only ten 10 twelve feet long. The
eggs Of the worm are eaten usually by a
San Antonio light. [volume] (San Antonio, Tex.) 1911-1993, 1925-08-16

Off innumerable eggs. The patient be-
comes anaemic, dun, lazy and worthless as
a worker.
Trichinosis is the disease caused by
nematode worm only one-twenty-ffth of
an inch long. Pigs and rats suffer from
this alment and pass it back and forth to
each other. Man catches it from eating
insuiIiciently cooked pork. The Larvae Of
the worm gnaw their way into the muscles
anf stay there, surrounded by little hard
capsules. If these muscles are eaten with
out being thoroughly cooked, the capsules
are dissolved by the digestive juices of
the human stomach and the larva devel-
opes in the ntestines to its adult size.
The female then lays eggs which hatch
out to Larvae that bore their way through
the walls of the intestines and go explor-
ing in all directions seeking muscle tissue.
In the muscles Of human being just as
in those of pig or rat, they build them
selves capsules and remain, causing pain
and rheumatic aches. While they are
wandering about, the patient suffers intes-
final disturbances and fever
Lice, known in the army as Coolies"
which infest the human body, are very
fussy about temperature. If their host
dies they all leave him as soon as his body
begins to cool Oft. In cases of very high
fever, they also move away and remain in
the blankets until the fever heat subsidies.
Full grown lice are easily killed by
many different kinds of drugs, but their
eggs are not. These "nitsp are covered
by gelatne-like glue which notIsnly pro-
tects them from the various chemicals APP
piled, but CLUES them firmly to the hair.
Nits, however, can be removed by washing
the person with diluted vinegar, which dis
solves the glue.
Besides these larger parasites man Is
continually making a Christmas tree OF
himself for hundreds Of different microbes
known to science and doubtless to thou
sands of others not yet identified. Con
sidering that even when we feel in the
best Of health this amending warfare IS
going on, il is no wonder that we all wear
out and die so soon. Every one might
truthfully say on his income-tax return
that he is the sole support Of large num-
Der of families--or parasites.

Like the flea, she too has marveIously
constructed drilling apparatus and poison
to make our blood flow to her probe.
Besides the poison, certain kinds Of mos
quitoes inject into the blood the germs
Of malaria, yellow fever and other
diseases Without the mosquitoes atten-
tions mankind would never have known
these maladics.
The female mosquito thoughtfully lays
her eggs in little stagnant pools, puddles,
tanks, cistcrns, etc, near human habita-
tons, if possible. The eggs hatch into
little swimming wrigglers which, in turn,
become full-grown flying pests ready TO
begin the trouble all over again. Propa-
eating diseases is no bother for her at all.
She simply stings a sick person and then
bites he9 ny one, and the germs do the
rest.

parts Of Africa, spccializes in carrying the

IRON the point of view of insects,
bugs and germs, human being is
a charitable institution and our char
ity begins at horne right in our own
body.
With some of these tormenting mites
we are fairly well acquainted, to our sor-
row, such as feas, lice, ticks, etc We
know about the justly celebrated tape
worm, who occasionally settles in our
midst, but there are numberless other un-
invited guests who continually take advan-
tage Of our hospitality. We may not all
know about these visitors, but they all
tax our health to support them, just as
criminals and idiots tax the state for their
support, and science has recently investi-
gated many of these pests with some very
interesting results.
Every one knows the flea, that beauti-
fully perfect invention Of Nature that
lives at the expense of human beings, dogs,
and other animals. 1t is blessed with an
incredible agility in evading our aveng-
ing hand. II man had legs Of proper
tomato strength, he could leap into the
clouds.
That is only one of its many talents.
The flea, like the mosquito, bedbug and
others, is provided with nice drill to
pierce the skin and draw up our blood.
To save him trouble in pumping, Nature
has furnished the rascal with a poison to
inject into the puncture. This poison irri-
tates the tissues and causes the blood TO
flow rapidly to the spot, saving the fiea's
time and labor. Also the creature is con-
structed with segments of flexible armor
so that our frantic scratching will not
harm the little fellow.
All over the hea's body are rows Of
stiff, bristly hairs which project backward
and it has also sort of collar and nous
taehe of these hairy spikes, all neatly ar
ranged so that they do not catch or inter-
fere with his forward movements among
the hair of the body or the nap Of clothing.
The moment a human being gets his
clumsy fingers on the little pest and tries
TO pull him away, the reason for these
become apparent. They catch ant tanglc
in the hairs Of the body or fuzz Of
the clothes, like the barbs on fish hooks,
and the insect slips through the fingers.
While we are getting new grip he hops
out of sight. As we search vainly for him,
he hops back onto some other part Of our
clothes.
The itch-nite is queer little member
Of our undesirable guests. This tiny para
site. seen through a microscope, looks like
turtle except that it has six short legs
instead Of four As is usually the case
among singing pests the female -auses all
the trouble.

Waldo County Supreme Court
The January term of the Waldo
County Supreme Court will convene
in this city on Tuesday the 9Th with
Associate Justice Charles p. Barnes
presiding, the first official visit Of
Justice Barnes to Waldo County.

fast as messenger. Sheriff Frank A.
Littlefield will be in attendance with
Deputies Lee Robinson of Belfast and
