Mr. Fly, Typhoid Agent.
| By E.I. K. Critchanl, Secretary of the Detriment
of Health, Chicago.
Flv time is neie and our homes
1 are to be invaded by the most dangerous
insect known to man. "My
gracious!'' I hear the good housewife
j exclaim. "Is it as bad as that? I always
did hate the pesky things, but
! 1 had no idea they were really dan|
gerous."
Yes, madam, they are so dangerous
as carriers of disease that you
should fight for their exclusion from
your home as you would against
wild beasts seeking your life.
Flies are the dirtiest and filthiest
of all vermin. They are boru in
tilth. The manure pile, the garbage
ican and the out-door vault produce
ninety-nine per cent of all the house 1
tlies in existence. They carry millions
of disease germs in their fee.
Study their habits just a little ^
and you will be convinced. The fac
is, the fly is 60 unspeakably nasty
that it is impossible to tell you all .
the n*sty things he does. He thinks
nothing of leaving his feast of the
carcass of a horse or dog to sample ]
all the good things you have on your
dining room table. He will crawl all
over the butter or obligingly tumble
into the baby's milk with his germ- 1
ladeu feet; or, escaping this fate, he
J meets his end in your tea or coffee,
j Rest assured that if you permit flies (
to have the freedom of your house
you will actually eat the filth which
they deposit on whatever they touch.
Now, foi' protection from this ]
dangerous pest, see to it that all ,
doors and windows are carefully ]
screened. Also be very careful to
keep flies away from all foodstuffs. (
To kill them in the house, make a 7 (
per cent solution of bichromate of j
'potash. Sweeten with sugar and ]
place in shallow dishes throughout (
the house. This is cheap, cau be had

be sprayed with kerosene, which will
prevent flies from biceding.

A. C- L Tank Burst.

here fell down, caused by the
bursting of the hoops. Mr J L
McFadden was in the pump
house near the tank at the time,
running the pump. The pump
house was knocked down, but
Mr McFadden escaped without
serious injur}'. It is a great inconvenience
to the company to
be without tiiis tank, and they
hope to have it rebuilt in a few
jays.

P-SEIHARY ON A BOOH,
in Ua ptinn Citizens Decide to
operate the Town.
Rosemary, Jnne 1:?A very
large and enthusiastic public
mass meeting- was held last1
evening by the citizens of Rose-j
mary at the large hall over the
Rosemary Mercantile Company's
store for the purpose of discussing
several matters of importance
to the welfare of the
town. Mr J W Doar was made
chairman, and presided over the
meeting. After several short
speeches by Capt W H Andrews,
Mr H C Tallavast, Mr F Isokreit,
Mr D R Rodgers, Mr J W
Doar and others, Mr T E Arrowsmith
made a motion, which
was unanimously adopted, that
Mr J W Doar take the necessary
steps to have the town of Rose* |
raary incorporated. Capt VV H
Andrews stated that he would
give a lot and $500 for the purpose
of erecting a town hall if
the citizens would raise $1,000.
The annonncement was received
with great enthusiasm. The citizens
of Rosemary are very
desirous of changing the name
of "Rosemary to "Andrews" in
honor of Capt W H Andrews,
who has done more for the
town of Rosemary than any
other person. No doubt when
tke town is incorporated it will
take its new name, "Andrews."
The Rosemarv Land Associ*
*
ation has awarded the contract
to Win Dunmore, contractor and
builder, for the erection of thirty
six small bouses. This will run
up the number of new buildings
to be erected in the near future
to about sixty.
The "Rosemary Boosters"
have decided to give a grand
ball on the evening of the 5th
of July. Invitations will be
sent out about June 15. The
Georgetown orchestra will be
will be engaged to furnish music
for the occasion. A special
train will be run from Georgetown
to bring all those who
wish to attend the ball.?News

One of the handiest things about a
farm is a canvas large enough to
eover a load or stack of hay. Those
who still stack all hay outside need
me most. But there are m*ny other
uses for one, such as covering loads

Catarrh Causes Kidney Disease.
Catarrh is a frequent cause of kidney
disease. .The pelvis of the kidneys,
as well as the tubules, is lined
with mucous membrane, and is therefore
subject tp catarrhal congestion.
Sometimes the catarrh is so slight as to
cause no attention. Other times it lead?
up to very serious conditions. . (
Any remedy capable of mitigating
the catarrh is a much more rational
treatment than to give palliatives that
