Rev. L. W. Heaton.
Hollis E- Suits of St. Louis is
making an unusual experiment.
He has a number of flies in con
finement and is trying to learn
how long a fly lives and under
what circumstances his propaga
tion progresses most favorably.
Also he is demonstrating how
long it takes to starve a fly to
death. Suits believes the in
formation he is gathering will
be useful in combating germ
carriers.

Crow "Helped" in Golf Game
An ununual golf story comes from i
Scotland. Mrs. Barnett, an American, j
lady Living aS North Berwick, while ,
playing on the course recently, had J
her game considerably interfered with
by a persistently inquisitive crow. She
had Just made a tee shot when the
crow secured the ball, and, after flying
with It for some distance, dropped It.
The lady made two other shots, and
the crow, to her amazement- twice re
tumed and lifted the bail after she
had played It.
Mueh Like Sarcasm.
The conceited visitor had talked •
long time, and small Janie was duly
impressed wtth the breadth and varle
ty of his knowledge. At last the
talker made the sententious statement
that one-half the world does not know
how the other half Uvea. "Why don’t
you teach themT" was the Innocent
question that mads the visitor blush
and his ether listeners struggle wltl
scarcely suppressed chuckle*

Marking Arrival of Age.
When I get to be old I ain't goin*
to 9nd It out by countin’ up to »ee,
nor by my whiskers, nor by my gums,
aor none of them signs. They'll all
fool you. No, slrJ But one of these
times I'll got throwed down, and I
won’t bounce back. Then I'll know
tt't all over. When a man gets that
way, he’s old. Old, see? It don’t
make any difference how much longer
he lives after that, be don't ever get
any older.—"Billy Fortune.”

air and sleeping outdoors aH of the
time.
