FIj is an Ally of the Ban.
Approximately 200,000 deaths
in the United States during the
last yearjesultedfrom the activ
ities of a single ally of the Teu
tons, and he is still allowed to go
at large.
This enemy, which leaves a
trail of disease snd death, is the
fly. It is well known that he is
bred in filth and leads a life of
crime; that more soldiers were
killed in the Spanish-American
War by flies than by bullets; that
thousands of babies die every
year from diseases traced direct
ly to the fly, yet his existence is
almost ignored by a large portion
of our population.
The "swat-the-fly" campaign
waged in this country during the
last few years has worked won
ders, but it will not result in
complete victory until every one
unites in constant and relentless
war upon him.
The best time to dispose of a
fly, of course, is while he is still
young and before he has become
steeped in crime, but effective
work can be done for the Beason
now.
The United States Public
Health Service has made an ex
haustive investigation into the
life habits of the fly and has
found that he more than deserves
his bad reputation, If you will
write to the Health Service,
Washington, D. C, you will be
furnished with information as to
how to deal with the fly, how to
end his pernicious activities in
short, how effectually to put him
out of business.
In the meantime swat the fly;
don't let one escape. A fly prop
erly swatted when it is young
will save a million or more swats
at its great-great-great-grandchildren
later on. Reclamation

HOLDERS OF ROYAL WARRANT
Tradesmen In England Who Received
This Mark of Favor Each Year
AreObjects of Envy.
Once a year, In the New Year' fin
ret to, appears a long list of trudcKiuor
who nre holders of royal warrant
Thl lint at the preKont time exceed.
1,200 inline!. Since the death of Queen
Victoria eonHlderably over .TOO nitmef
huve been added..
It Is n privilege greatly coveted nnd
much envied thin of the royal war
rant, for It In not one lightly bestowed
upon every trudewnun who ha tie
piled good to bis majesty's household
It Is distinctively a murk of royal fuvor
Tlt-IUta siiys, and to noma extent a
testimonial to the excellence of tb
purveyor's goods.
Its prlnclpnl outward sign Is the us
of the royul arms over the shop front
and upon the writing paper of tho wur
runt holder, nnd It Is an offense ugalnst
the luw for uuy person- not being u
warrant holder to uso the urins. Ap
parently, however, Its misuse Is a com
mon occurrence, for during recent
years hundreds of cuses of Impropei
use huve been dealt with by the Itoyul
Wurrant Holders' association.
The Novice's Mistake.
In Tules of Flying Service, Mr. C.
G. Crey tells about a Htrunge entry In
the ofllclnl report of an olllcer who hud
recently Joined the service nnd wan
sent to pas a seaplane through Its test
for the Kngllsh nuvy. He had to go
tip as a passenger with tho construc
tor's pilot nnd to keep a log of what
occurred during he test.
ThI U what he put down: "O.-O.1 a.
in., left ship. 0:10 a. in., altimeter
shows 300 feet above sen. 0:12 a. in.,
curious phenomenon. Met a sea gull
flying backward !"
That meant that the machine, flying
nt the rate of about 80 miles an hour,
overtook a sea gull which I not a
fust flyer going at about 40 miles nn
hour, and thnt up In the air without
any background to give a proper sense
of direction, the bird looked ns If It
were flying toward them tall first.
Probably the officer knows better now.
Youth's Compunlon.
Boon to Indoor Photographer.
The nitrogen-tilled electric lamps
hnve proven a boon to the Indoor pho
tographer. They nre resorted to In
vurlous ways to secure Improved re
sult. It produces fur more actinic
rny than the ordinary Incandescent
light, und a Toom lighted by n 2iX
watt lamp can be photographed In a
fraction of the time required with a
light of the old stylo. In a room of
ordinary size, with walls nnd celling
of a medium tint, nnd with the cam
era stop open to No. 8 on tho dlu
pbragm scale, an exposure of from two
to four minutes will be enough to get
excellent Interior view. Photogra
phers 'now ulso uso tho gns-flllcd lump
In tho daytime to Illuminate dark cor
ners and shadowy places when they
ore taking Indoor view.
Electricity Routs Drudgery.
Domestic drudgery is being rupldly
lessened by electricity. A recently In
vented electric scrubber cleans 15,000
square feet of floor In nn hour, nnd
this lina been followed )y nn electric
floor polisher that doe In a few min
utes work thut often requires hours of
urduoiiH bund labor. The machine Is
connected to the nearest lamp socket.
The wax being spread over the floor
by the means provided, a heavy bristle
brush making .1,000 revolution per
minute quickly give a smooth nnd
brilliant surfnee, with no aid except
guiding over the floor.
The Difference.
"How would you answer tho old
question about tho difference between
a politician nnd a statesman?"
"I should say," replied Senator Sor
ghum, "that a polltlclun tries to glvo
people anything they wnut und a
statesman trie to give them what
they will npprove of, after they've jot

SCOUTS
(Conducted by National Council of the
Jiuy HroulH of AnnTVa.l ,
SCOUTS ARE NOT "GLOOMS"
A Scout I ulway cheerful Even
nt si'hool when hi toucher, burrussed
by mischievous pupils, loses her tem
per und Is unjust, tlie Scout smiles
Just the sumo. At home when hi poor
tired mother Is fretful from nervous
worry or hi father I cross because
of business cures und vexations, It Is
the duty of a Scout not only hi duty,
but the great privilege of h Scout to
come Into the home circle us the cheer
ful man comes Into tho wet camp und
spread cheerfulness nnd happiness
broudcust by immediately getting busy.
Soon he will see the wrinkle In bis
fnther' forehead Ironed out and will
be rewarded by a smile from his tired
mother. Then ho will know thut ho
bus ludeed done his good turn that
dny, hocuuso anyone who brings good
cheer Into camp or home is contribut
ing bis bit to the betterment of tho
world.
I Cheerfulness Is a matter of train
ing und good digestion. If a Scout
tuke cure of hi health, and obey tlio
third article of the out h. which Im
knows is to keep himself physically
strong, mentally awake, and morally
Htrtlght, It will be easy for hi in to be
cheerful; In fuct, It will tuke an effort
on his part not to be cheerful. Ho,
must remember the prayer, originated
by National Scout Commissioner Jnu
Heard for tl Scouts:
jvow I lay me down to BWp,
i pray tne i.ern i inuy not imrK;
If I Kliuulil dlu licfor" I wuku,
I pray the l.unl I'va done my work.
SCOUTS URGED TO SCRUB.
As a further old In raising the stand
ard of tho Koy Scout of America and
Improving the appearance of Scout
weurlng the uniform, It I recommend
ed by nutlonal headquarter that a
system of frequent Inspecthm of every
troop he developed, and thut no boy be
jierinltted to successfully pus nn ex
amination unless hi uniform Is prop
erly put on and thoroughly clean. Soup
and water will not Injure the Hoy
jScout uniform.
' The practice of allowing tho boys
'to appear ut a troop meeting or on
'the public thoroughfare or even In
camp In a uniform which shows evi
dence of unclcnnllncs I not conducive
to the best training of the Scout.
FIGHTING A GOOD FIGHT.
Boy Scouts do not carry rifles, but
thla spray gun Is winning on battle.
COMMUNITY DRYING PLANTS.
A troop of T.oy Scouts with a bend
for business could accomplish us good
result us were secured In a commun
ity drying plant ut North Lincoln,
Neb.
The drying plant consists of a eul-
Inet about 10 feet long, 2 feet high
and S'4 feet wide. The cabinet I
divided Into five section, four of
which are lurge enough to uccoinmo
date two stacks of drying tray of
ten each. The compartments ure let
tered and the trays numbered and u
record I kept by the caretaker of tho
trays assigned to the various puton.
A charge I made to cover cost of
operation nnd the salary of the care
taker. The caretaker Is nt the plant
for two hours In the morning nnd for
about ono hour In the afternoon. The
patrons have their vegetable und
fruits ult prepared when they come
to the plant. Two or three slicing
mnchlncs nre provided for the conven
ience of those who do not have them
ut home.
AMONG THE SCOUTS.
The poor families In I.lnflcld, Pn.,
nre aided by the P.oy Scouts cutting
.down the dead trees In the forests und
distributing the firewood among them.
Tho breeding places of mosquitoes
In Memphis, Teiin., have been located
by Hoy Scouts, who assist in their ex
termination, Tho thousands of caterpillars Infest
ing the tree at (ilen Cove, N. Y., have
Inspired the Itoy Scout to make It
their duty to kill them, thus suvlug tho
tree.
Value of a High Aim.
A glorious aim reacts In vitalizing
ministry upon the entire being. It Is
curative. A big holy aim Is very hos
tile to the petty ailments of the mind,
ns It Is also very destructive of the
mean dlsenses - of the henrt And
through n healthier mind nnd henrt we
give ourselves a chance of more-exuberant
physical health. Perhaps It Is
true, In a larger wny than wo usually
think, that "He shall quicken your
mortal bodies by his spirit thnt dwell
eth In you."

HIGHEST PEAKS NOT "CALED
Mountain Climbers Discuss Possibility
of Daring Rare Atmosphere
. Above 24,000 Feet.'
At a meeting of the Itoyal Geograph
leal society, Dr. A. M. Kellas presented
on elaborate discussion of the question
whether It Is possible for well-trained
mountaineers, to ascend to tho sum
mits of the loftier peuks of the Ilium-
luyu mountain, more, than 25,000 feet
In ultltude, none of which ha so fur
been climbed.
The present altltudo record In
mountaineering Is 24,000 feet, by tho
duke of the Abruz.l's expedition to thu
Kurakorum, VMi. The altitude of tho
highest mountain In thu Himalayan
nnd In the world Hverest Is 2!), Ml
feet. At that height the barometric
pressure and the oxygen supply I
only ubout one-third d great us nt sou
level, says the Scientific American.
The experiences of balloonist. Is not
conclusive n to the physiological dllll
cultlcM of such nn ascent, because tho
rapid rise of a balloon doe not glvo
tho aeronaut time to hecoine accllmii'
tlsed to great altitudes. On the hnsl
of a large amount of data Hoctor Kel
las (himself an experienced mountain
eer) expresses the opinion that a mini
In first-rate training, iicclimntl.ed to
maximum possible altitude, could make
the nscent to Mount Everest, provided
the physical dilllcultles are not insu
perable. A supply of soillu.m peroxide, to pro
vide oxygen ii an occasional refresh
ment would be of much assistance. At
present one of tho "physical" dilllcul
tles of ascending Everest Is the fact
that the government of India will not
let traveler approach within one hun
dred mile of the mountain.
SILENT MUSIC FOR HOSPITAL
System Arranged So That Patients May
Hear Phonograph Without Dis
turbing Others Near By.
A system of "silent music," Installed
by n Chicago firm In a hospital ut
Ottawa, III., Is described us consisting
of a spring-motor cabinet with u turn
table similar to the ordinary phono
graph without a horn. Attached to
the cabinet Is a special music-traiismlt-ter,
corresponding to the tone-nnn and
reproducer on , tho ordinary phono
graph. The transmitter 1 cncrgl.cd
by the vibrations of the needle travel
ing nn the record, and transmits theso
electrlcul vibrations over a system of
wire throughout the hospital. The
wiring termlmitiiH at outlet Jacks
alongside of patients' beds.
The patient can be furnished with
n bead receiver attached to a cord and
plug. When the plug Is Inserted In
the Jack ulongslde of the bed, the pa
tient may hear the iiiimIc by placing
the receiver against the enr. The re
corder I Inaudible unless the receiver
I held close to the ear, und conse
quently one patient may receive enter-
talnment while the patient In an ad
I joining bed may sleep without disturb
ance.
Far Too Rich to Be Safe.
Madame Lchuudy, who lost secur
ities to the value of f IOm.OoO through
the capture of the Prlns Ilenrik by the
(iermans, will not be very seriously
Inconvenienced by her loss. In pre
war days her fortune was estimated
nt 8,000,000, so she I the richest
woman In Franco nnd, next to Fran
Krupp von liolilen, the richest in Eu
rope. Mme. Lchuudy holds her wealth
In horror, nnd lives under nn assumed
name In order to avoid publicity. Her
residence nil the year round I n small
flat In Versailles, where the domestic
staff consists of one servant, who I
assisted In tho work by her mistress.
Mme. Lchnudy distributes In charity
nearly the' whole of her Income, most
of her donations being made anony
mously. One Miracle Led to Another.
A man' with huge smoked goggles

Patrolman McNiimani watched him
from nTur. lie stopped two soldiers In
uniform nnd told them that he was it
victim of the Mexican war, nnd after
describing the horror of the struggle
tlmt had cost him his sight, held out ll
tin cup. I It) t hi story did not move
the soldiers, and they passed on.
"Oh, you think that Just because you
wear uniforms you're somebody!" bo
shouted lifter them. Patrolman McNa
mara thought It so remarkable for a
blind man to sense the presence of u
uniform that ho restored the sight of
that war victim by tho laying on of

Vicar as a Farm Laborer.
Itev. Iteglnald James, vicar of St.
John's church nt Watford, England,
writing In hi parish magazine, says:
"I have chosen tho part of helping my
nation by offering myself for most of
the week n an agricultural laborer to
n neighboring farmer, who I bard put
to carry on without help. Fortunately
I have been brought up to manual la
bor, nnd the farmer think I shall do
very well. I think I shall look very
well In my new vestments. I have al
ways longed for n smock. It I quite
In keeping with my 'high church' way,
for the monks of old were great agri
culturists." What Crusoe Forgot.
Mother was reading the story of Itoh
Inson Crusoe and Albert was trying to
think of what ho would have done un
der the sume circumstance.
"Mother," he suld, "Ihero wus one
thing that they forgot."
"What was that, denr?"
"Wl"'. can opener."
Stone Ships Not 'Entirely New.
While stone ships, such ns are being
made now for the government's uso In
the war, are considered quite a novelty,
they n-ally are not so new after all.
Away buck In 1819 n boat of concrete
was launched by a Frenchman named
Lambot. Since then there hnve been
many experlmnt with tbl type of
vessel and many forms of concrete
boats have I n floated successfully,
The Dutch nnd the Italians have been
uslug concrete burces for a loug time.
THINK how much coal you burn in a range when you're' not cooking. That's all
wasted money thrown away. And Uncle Sam wants every housewife who can, to
save coal. Here is a good way for you to do your part. Use an oil cook stove instead
of the fuel-wasting coal range. Then the only time you use fuel is when you are
cooking. And that fuel, kerosene, is much more economical than coal.
not only give mosf satisfactory results they save steps in house work and do all the
cooking just as well (usually better) than a coal range.
Think how easy it is to strike a match and have an intense heat in less than a minute.
No coal or wood to carry. No getting down on hands and knees to rake and poke at
the fire. Your New Perfection is always ready when you are.
