been made the subject of sclentlflc In
vestigation and has been convicted of
various high crimes and misdemean
ors of which he had formerly been lit
tle suspected. Before the advent of
the bacteriologist the house fly was
regarded merely as a nuisance. It
was an Intruder, an uninvited and un
welcome guest And it created so
much trouble for its size that to some
human beingB it created almost as
much amusement as execration. It
tickled the wit of no end of humorists,
lent a light touch to many a caricature
and won, too, a certain amount of re
spect for its democratic ways. It was
no respecter of persons.
In tbo light of modern science, how
ever, as shown by an exhaustive ar
ticle on this subject by tho New York
Tribune, the'fly has been found to be
not so much an annoyance as a posi
tive menace to mankind. It Is now
blamed for the spread of many dis
cuses. Experiments have proved that
It can carry on its hairy body the
germs of various fevers, so that It has
come to be feared by armies almost
as much as the bullets of an enemy.
An epidemic of cholera in a Manila
prison was not long ago traced to
flies. As Boon as the Insects were,
barred from the convicts' quarters the
pestilence abated. Among the Egypt
ians and Fiji Islanders the houfce fly
has been found guilty of conveying the
germs of tho prurient ophthalmia.

its opportunities of Infection are mul
tiplied. The lilgh mortality of chil
dren in the summer months In con-
Rested districts, where refuse accumu-
latos fast and where the food Is often
kept In living rooms, Is, no doubt,
caused to a certain extent by the fly.
It Is known that this Insect pollutes
mllk wlth bacteria. Milk Is the. favor
ite food for flies, and at the same time
it is an unusually good brooding place
for bacilli.
In a/recent report of the Bureau of
Entomology of the Department of Ag
riculture much space Is devoted to ex
periments In the prevention of the
breeding of tho house fly, which proved
BucceBBful. As the fly Is born In the
flltli of stables, cleanliness where
liprees are kept greatly decreases the
number of these Insects. ■ All stable
sweepings should be removed Imme
diately, or, If tills Is Impossible, they
should be kept In a closed receptacle
to which flies cannot find access. The
flj performs an important’ part In the
economy of nature, but It should not
be permitted to approach the abodes
of men.

“I no coni' part wlo Go!',' the dog's

offers were no inducement.
To Ills astonishment, the traveler
later saw tbe dog sold to a drover for
half what he hud offered nud nftcr the
drover hul disappeared requested an
explanation. “You said that you could

A twinkle came into the highlander's

Pswi That Carry a Vote.
The parish church of Chertsey pos
sesses a curious anomaly. It has sev
eral pews In its gallery which are
bought and sold by auction, just like a
table or a chair, and these pews give
their ownere for the time being a legal
right to vote at parliamentary elections
In the division. Moreover, the owners
of tho pew's have to pay the poor rate
of f 2 a year into the bargain, a privi
lege they are not so eager to rise as the
former one- Many years ago the church
wardens of Chertsey were at their wits'
end In order to raise money for the res
toration and repair of tho sacred edi
fice, and they could And no solution to
i the question until some parishioners
suggested that they should sell the gal
lery pews to the highest bidder. They
accepted the Idea and obtained a spe
cial act of parliament allowing them to
do this and also giving tho privilege of
a parliamentary vote.—London Specta
