So far as known, the fly serves no useful purpose, and it does a great deal of mischief. One of the most serious evils resulting from their existence is the transportation of disease germs from place to place, and depositing them on. human food. A fly alights on infected substances and then departs, carrying scores of bacilli on its feet. An ordinary housefly will lay 120 eggs during its existence, and 90 per cent. of them will be hatched: out. During the ordinary summer 12 or 13 generations of flies will be produced.

Novel Hall of Justice Out iu Indian Territory by Which Trouble and Expense Are Saved, nae The United States court of the northern district of Indian territory is probably the only traveling court, including the courtroom and all persons and things connected, in existence in the United States. United States Commissioner Harry Jennings, United States Marshal L. E. Bennett, and a corps of as‘Sistants; have adopted: this novel plan of traveling over the district and holding court at several different places instead of at one. place in the district, as heretofore. The northern district of Indian territory is large and the towns are far apart, so that it is very hard for persons to travel to and from to attend court, as well as expensive. Commissioner Jennings has had a small house built on wheels, much resembling a mover’s outfit, in which they travel, and also in which they hold ecurt in the various-towns over the district. ‘They carry cooking utensils withthem and have an expert cook, «who keeps their house in order. They go from place to place wherever they are wanted, and they claim that they have saved the people considerable money,. as it is much less expensive for the court to travel than for the people to travel in that country.

Lansion said: “I have only been riding . : this season, and have never tried such # hill, but I thought 1 would have nc trouble backpedaling. Once started however, the pedals almost threw me into the air as they came up. aoe my. feet slipped and the. ride began. F was going like mad in an instant, “When I passed McDonald he yelled to me to throw myself, but I would as Soon have thrown myself from a balloon. I yelled back: ‘Which way does the road turn?’ out of sight by that time, At any rate, it made little difference. All that 1 could do was to sit in the saddle.. ‘The run was one series of ious leaps. The machine fiew up in the air, and it Seemed, sometimes, that it would never land. I was completely unnerved, not knowing what I should meet at the bottom of the hill. There was a group of girls coming up the hill, and J had presence of mind enough to yell at them. As “they scattered I saw beyond them tiie turn at the bottom. It was absolutely impossible for me to make it, however, and i flew straight ahead off a bank of loose stones and crashed on to the ground. [ felt as if my head was being knew.” GROWTH OF A NEW INDUSTRY. The Manufacture of Opalescent Glass in This Country Is Making Rapid Strides. The progress of the opalescent glass industry in this country has been so . marked that glass is now sent abroad to compete with the fine foreign work 4 of that kind; which is done principally in Belgium, says the Buffalo Express. There are three plants‘in this country— one at New Rochelle, N. J., another at , . Kokomo, Ind., and a third at Ottawa, Ill. “The Parisian--who founded the plant at New Rochellé went to Kokomo ten years ago. This man was dependent upon his chemist for the work the establishment turned out and when the chemist died the secret of the processes survived in his student, Jerome M. Francoise, a Belgian. The young man in the course of time induced local capitalists to back him up in buying the plant. The enterprise succeeded so well that two years ago some of the beautiful colored glass was sold in Dresden. Since then the export trade has grown constantly. Now four car loads are on their way to Europe, one going to Germany, two to Paris and one to Florence. The success that has attended this industry is particularly gratifying because it has been said so frequently that, while the United States may excel in machine work of many kinds, produets of an artistic character still belong to Europe. This probably is true in certain lines, but the element of art ship of this country and has before it an almost limitless field. : COST OF A LOAF OF BREAD. Result of a Series of Investigations by Prof. Snyder, of Minnesota, An interesting contribution to a series of publications being issued by the department of agriculture, embracing investigations into the food and nutrition of man, has been made by Prof, Harry Snyder, of the Minnesota agricultural college. The paper contributed by Prof. Snyder relates the experiments made at the Minnesota university in breadmaking. The average “pound loaf” ‘of fresh bread as sold by bakers, says the professor, weighed on an average about one pound one ounce. A pound loaf of bread can be made from about three-quarters of a pound of flour, about 25 per cent. of water being added to the flour during the process of breadmaking. With some flour five to ten per cent. more water can be absorbed making a greater weight of bread ‘from a given weight of flour. This additional weight is water and not nutrients. At two cents a pound for flour, it is estimated by Prof. Snyder that a pound loaf of bread can be made, not counting fue] and labor, for about two cents, one-half cent being allowed for shortening and yeast. The loss‘of dry matter in breadmaking is usually considéred as amounting to about two per cent. of the flour used. In exceptional cases, as in prolonged fermentation, under favorable conditions the losses may amount to eight per cent. or more. oe What fs Shiloh ? A grand old remedy for Cough, Colds
