BLOODSURE
WILL TELL

History shows that by long
and careful breeding the present
superior type of Arabian horses
has been maintained for more
than $500 years, says Nature
Magazine. There is the account
of how Mohammed, anxious to
secure mounts that would stand
up under the rigorS of his cam
paignS, kept a hundred mares
penned up in sight of a spark
ling stream. but without water,
for four days.
Finally released, the frantic
animals dashed for the stream.
Just as they were within a few
yards of it, Mohammed caused
his bugler to sound the call to
halt. Five obeyed-but the
others continued their mad dash
for water. These five, at the
first notes of the bugle, aligned
themselves in battle formation,
thus proving their blood.

LAYS EGG ON
HIS BACK

Fish have enemies and one of
the worst is the giant water
bug, called by some electric
light bug because the adults
seem to be attracted to bright
lights. 49,.
This peculiar type is capable
of living both in and out of the
water, which is the reason for
it's appearance in many pools
in a small neighborhood.
The species is the Zaitha and
belongs to the family Belosto-
midae, says Nature Magazine.
1t is over an inch long, Of a
dark brown color, oval shape.
and has two rather broad hind
legs, a sharp short beak, and
two clasping front legs. Con-
cealing itself in the mud at
the bottom of the pool, it awaits
the unsuspecting fish. With
great swiftness, it darts out and
attacks its prey by clasping
its sharp forelegs around the
fish, sucking the blood from its
neck. The. Zaitha does most
of its damage during the season
when the fish are spawning.
One, of the most interesting
habits of this bug is the manner
in which the eggs are cared for.
The female lays her eggs on
the back of the male, fastening
them with a layer of waterproof
glue-nuch to the displeasure
of the prospective parent. Often,
this duty of nurSemaid so irri-
tates the male bug that he
hides himself for days, until
the eggs hatch.

Try Forgetting him
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
I have been keeping COM
pany with a fellow for a year
and a half. But gradually I
have seen him less often and
now it is six weeks since I
have seen or heard from him.
although the last time we met
he was as nice as he has always
been. Please advise me.
CUTIE"
MY dear Cutie, I am afraid
you will have to muster all YOUR
pride and determine to forget
this inconstant young man.
Since there has been no quarrel,
there can be no reconciliation.
It must be that he is not in
love with you, and if you are
so unfortunate as to be in love
with him, it would merely make
you more unhappy to see him
again. So, put him out OF yoir
mind as resolutely as possible
and make a point OF seeing as
many other young people as you
can. They will help you TO Tor
get him.

SWAT THAT
FLY. NOW!

Medical entomology, in spite
Of its progress during the last
few decades, is an unexpected
field, in the opinion of DR.. L. w.
Howard. There are hundreds of
insect species, closely allied to
species known to carry disease,
that should be studied. These,
says Nature Magazine of Wash
ington, include about $50 types
Of mosquitoes in the Americas
alone.
The entomologists and doctors
exposed the house fly as the
mechanical carrier of several
diseases and have done much TO
safeguard the world against this
criminal Of the insect world.
DR.. Howard was leader in the
campaign against it, publishing
many bulletins and magazine
articles, beginning in 1895 and
eliminating in his book, THE
House Fly-DiSeaSe Carrier"
which. appeared in 1911 and has
since been translated into many
languages.
Extensive studies have been
made of mosquitoes, too, but,
says DR.. Howard, we do not
know all about them and further
work is necessary. Typhus, ma
laria, yellow fever, sleeping sick
ness and Rocky Mountain fever
are Just a few of the maladies
insects visit upon mankind.

The hardest person in the

" yearning for a beloved being
who somehow cannot be at

O sad affair, I admit. But
there is something worse.
And that is the condition Of
the man or woman who seems
to have been successful in love,
but who miSerably cannot trust
his or her own triumph.
The state of mind and heart
Of the husband or wife who is
tormented by chronic jealousy
Is perhaps the wretchedest

that is peculiarly untouched by

To offer counsels of sweet

fire, even if it is a fire of their
own foolish kindling, is often,
naturally enough, to waste

I have before me a. recent
letter from a young husband.
It was this young mans des-
tiny to fall in love with a beau.
tiful and fascinating young wo-
man. Let us call them Mary
and Charles. I don't know
whether she completely returned
his love. In any case, she &C.
cepted him and they were mar.
ried a year ago.
- Charles, then, should be in
paradise.
A year ago he asked for
nothing else in the world than
to have this lovely girl for
his wife.
He has her. He loves her
more than ever. She seems
all that one could hope for
in a wife. And yet Charles
is in torment. And I don't
know what else, at this mo-
ment, would relieve his Suf-
fering except to lock his loved
one in the equivalent of a
harem and to make sure-if
it is ever possible to make
sure-that no man would ever
look upon, her face again.
For it is the loneliness of

IAN men notice her." writes
Charles. They can't help it.
And she smiles at all of them.
She smiles TT the iceman and
at her dance partner. I can
never be sure that there isn't
more to it than that. That
her smiles aren't driving other
men crazy. How do / know
that they don't love and pursue
her when I am not there? Of

You see that perhaps the
man that marries a girl with a
face that launched a thousand
ships isn't so much to be envied
after all. Especially if he is
nervous and imaginative and
just a little unreasonable, or,
deep down, not completely con-

AVIATION SAVES
100000 TAX

AS the result of the action of
80 States and the District of Co
Iumbia in either exempting civil
and commercial fliers from pay
ment of the gasoline tax or re-
funding the amount, the aviation
industry saves approximately
$500, 900 a year, the air travel
division of the American Automo-
bile Association said today.
The estimate is based on con-
sumption of 20,576,468 gallons of
gasoline in civil and commercial
flying last year, and an average
gas tax rate for the country of
1922 cents per gallon. 1t was
also pointed out that the gaso-
line consumption gives picture
of the tremendous increase in
miles flown, with the consump-
ton of gasoline in 1929 more than
double that of 1928, when $780,
600 gallons were used.

Now it is Boston for his camp
He sent out the ultimatum yes
tiddy and poor Gus like to died.
It seems that a committee OF
Bostonians called on good Jawn
at his stately old English style
home outside of that town and
prevailed upon him that. as q
good citizen of Boston or there
abouts he ought to bring renown
to the place by conditioning him
self for the fray with the Ger.
man, right in BawSton.
Despite the fact that Jack
is SuperstitiOuS and really is
hankering for Orangeburg, he
has fallen for the committee
speeches and Is going to pitch
whatever tent he may use in
Boston.
Wilson turned 10 years older
when they told him at the Gar.
den yesterday that white-eyed
Mister Sharkey had decided to re-
main in Beantown for his setting
up exercises.
There may be many reasons for
this switch. Some say that Jack
is anxious to stroke down the fur
Of the Boston fans, since he never
has been popular up there.
One of the reasons and I guess
the main one, is that Jack always
managed to bang home-bred jim
Maloney @round before a Boston
crowd anytime they met.
Jim is well liked there.
Jack isn't. They look upon
him as an invader, since
Sharkey was born in Bing-
hamtOn, N. Y. Oh yes, yes,
Jack Is one Of US.
Comes the story from Boston
that Jack is going to hire the
Boston Garden for his training
quarters. The place seats some
10000 innocents and at a buck
q head the training period could
be turned into small gold mine
