He carries typhoid fever, consumption and summer complaint. How? On bis wines and hairy feet What is his enprR name? TvDhoid fly. nirt h PTsr kill any one?

Florida An American girl is the first woman to fly over the English channel. 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. If some one told you that that deli cious apple pie was inoculated with typhoid germs, how quickly you would push it away In fear and disgust, and yet you nonchalantly shoo off the germy fly that Is crawling f.round its crust and consume it with relish. There's danger in that pie. There's death in that fly. Swat him! Watch your homes. Burn the un necessary 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 kills the greatest number of the pests a little reward at the end of the summer, and you won't need to buy any sticky paper or poison stuff. Flies are prolific. Each one you hit means the death of its hundreds of descendants. You do many harder things to prevent disease. Why not take this in hand early In the season and not run any risk? Begin your swatting now. Isabel Woodman Waitt In Coos County Democrat. Best Drugs Needed.
