The common house fly bim re’cently > • •/• -p ■ . ,l, , • 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. In the crowded city the house fly you see It In The Herald It’s so.

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. TAKING CARE OF OUR OWN. The Philadelphia Record well says that German newspapers must have a rush of Monroe dootrluo to the head to Bee the influence of that principle of our foreign policy In the assurance of the President that we need no help in caring for the Sun Francisco suffer ers. His reply to the prompt offers of German assistance was thoroughly ap preciative and perfectly courteous. There is no reason whatever for tak ing umbrage at It.

A Bouquet for The Herald. Prom the Port Valley r ender. If there Is a small city dally In the South which has any advantage ot The Albany Herald we have not seen It. Editorially and typographically Tho Herald Is the neatest paper In Its class in the South. The Stl.iKlnw Tree. The stinging tree of Australia some what resembles a glgnutic nettle. It has an unpleasant odor, nud the na tives aud native animals are careful to avoid It. When a man is stung by tbe tree—or, to put It more prosaichlly. pricked by the tree's thorn—the little wound gives him at first no pain what ever. But In u few minutes u madden ing pain Is set up: the victim shrieks nud rolls upon tho ground, l-’or months afterward when water touches the stung part great agony ensues. Dogs when stung rush about with piteous whines, lilting pieces of Hesh from tho plnee that has beep stunc. “Certainly, If you sell him to mo." “I no coni' part wlo Go!',' the dog's owner then said emphatically. "I’m muekle fond-ltke o’ him.” And liberal 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 not sell him,” he remarked. A twinkle came into the highlander's eyes. “No; I dldna say I’d no sell him. I said I cpuldnn part wle him,” he said. “Rob’11 be home In two or three days fra noo, but I couldna ask him to swim across tbe ocean. Na; that woul' be too muekle to ask.”—Harper's Weekly. 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 tor A Gallery of Forgeries.
