"Poisoners In Every Home," you iju w Sterne as culling inn 11 "liuV hi-' .her ' (which lie ruttlly la) From rin childhood I bave been taught, and believed that In tbe economy of nature all living things were oreated for a wise purpose; and, In particular, that the housefly was a natural scavenger, by foedlng on filth, and In desposltlng Its eggs In It as well as on Carcasses, which hatch into maggots and wbtch are thus devoured, thereby preventing the pollution of tbe air with pestilential emanation. Were . it not for . the. fiy these (qarcasses) would rapidly decompose In the bot summer sun, breeding sickness and disease by .polluting the atmosphere with deadly poison, as above indicated. Witness cholera in India, which trnrels in the air, caused by decaying filth and dead animals, hastened by the tropical heat.

Parrish, of Fifth street, was attacked by two dogs and received an ugly bite in the oalf of one leg. Tbe wound was dressed and is healing with out dangerous symptoms. One of the dogs was muzzled and one was not, but the appearance of the wound indicates that the muzzled animal did the biting. Both canines will be shot. Thursday evening a dog belonging to Samuel Flick, of Snydertown, showed symptoms of hydrophobia and was promptly shot before It bad a chance to bite anyone. Wants to Help Some One.
