I Dicky's New Year low He Came to Attend the Grow Folks' Party. DICKY spruwled ungracefully on the floor, and at times he bestowed a sly und naughty kick upon the unresisting legs of a :bair that stood near him. His flrst inpulse was to feel sorry for doing bis, his second to look around und see f any one had noticed this little out >urst of temper. It may be that the Christmas festlvi les of a few days before hod been oo much for him: but, whntever It was. Dicky was certainly cross and inclined o weep easily However, neither his mother nor his Vunt Gertrude noticed how he kicked he chair nor the way he scowled upon he world In gonerul from uin^r his awny curls. They were absorbed in heir preparations for entertaining the tuests of that evening, and for oner Dicky was forgotten. "If I was going to have a pnrty and nvlte all the people In the world I'd nvlte my own little boy, Dicky, too. wouldn't leave him out," quoth Dicky >ut of the silence. "What's that?" asked his mother arelessly, absorbed In her own | houghts. "No. no. Dicky; this Is a pary for mother's and father's friends, fou wouldn't enjoy lt.'# "Oh. but I do want to come," perslst*] Dicky "I've heard you all talking ibout It. nnd I want to see the new rear come In the window." "What Is the child talking about?" isked his aunt. "The new year. It's coming in the viudow. and I heard mother tell how rou were all going to open It to wel onie It In*" replied Dicky, somewhat inpatient at his aunt for not unTIcritandlng so obvious n meaning. "Nothing will come In at the winlow. deur." said his mother gently. It's Just a pretty custom. There will lot be anything for you to see. and 'ou will be much happier upstairs In our nice warm bed." Picky wept a little at the time, and vhen the hour came for bed under the tern eye of his father he rebelllously onseuted to be tucked In by his nurse, tlthough not without further remontrances. Finding them of no avail, he lobbed his woes Into his pillow, while lis father and mother went below to 'ecelve their eruests. By making a brave resistance to the Irowslnesa that was stealing upon him Dicky managed to keep awake until he party hatKasseinbled In the parlor >elow. Then he crept out of bed and luntf over the banisters, eagerly trying o catch sight of the brilliant people In he gathering. A man passed along lie hall Dicky thought It might tens father arn^ scampered back to hed Wain'"as >nSr.am bla little bar*, tvould carry him. And then without 4iore ado he soon fell nsleep. "the world forgetting, by the world forgot." Downstairs the hours passed merrily, ind the old year drew to a happy 'lose. First there were only flrteen ninutes of it left; then there were only :en Finally the old year had but tlve diort periods, counting sixty seconds ;ach. to live. The men and women fathered together showed nothing of ne solemnity that underlies the tneriment of x:ll such gatherings. Four Minutes. three minutes, two minutes? ih! They turned from the windows n surprise to see Dicky standing in he doorway. He was not dressed for the party, ind his little nightgown afforded scant protection against the drafts of the ower room. He was not expected at :he party, either, and the expression m his father's face suggested that he iviim not even welcome there. These 'onsldcratlons might have disturbed in adult guest, but they mattered little to Dicky. He did not look or speak to any one. Ordinarily his father's sternness would tiave sent him with a headlong rush to the protection of his mother's arms. Turning neither to the right nor to the eft. he went to the window, and. although his eyes were closed, his little tiands unlocked the catch that fastened It and opened the grent casements without a mistake or hesitation. His mother, choking back a cry. took i furred wrap and went to cover him. Flis father looked, half in fright., at his brother, who was standing near. "Be careful not to wake lum suddenly." said Dr. Tom. "He's walking in ais sleep!" He raised the child prently In his arms tnd held him in the full blase or the <reat chandelier, but Dicky's closed ?yelids never quivered as the llpht (truck HK'tlnst them. When he opened his eyes he %vas imazed to find himself at the party ifter nil. surrounded by men and wo nen. who all said cheerfully. "A bapi. Man.

And. speaking of flies, are you a member of the swatting crusade? If not. join. Everybody's doing it. Doing what? Swatting flies, and if you would live to be healthy, wealthy and wise you'd better get into the ranks.

There's death in that fly. Swat him! Watch your homes. Horn the unnecessary rubbish and waste as soon as possible. Keep scrupulously clean. Don't dump dirt; destroy it with cleansing fires. One of the easiest ways Is to start the children swatting. Offer the one who kilts the greatest number of the pests a little reward at the end of the summer, and yon won't need to buy any sticky paper or poison m Files are prolific. Each one you hit means the death of Its hundreds of deacendants. You do many harder thtags to prevent disease. Why not take this In hand early In the season and not ran any risk?
