The destruction of the house fly Is a public duty. Almost every American State Board of Health is carrying oa a crusade against him. His filthy origin and habits, and the fact that his body i s generally laden with disease-producing germs, makes him one of the greatest ene- mies of the human race. If the housekeepers of Canada will use WILSON'S FLY PADS persistently, this peril will be tre- mendously reduced. THINGS THEY DO IN SIAM. Dote on Porfumv and Chew Tea. Instead of Drinking It. Perfumery is extensively used in Siam. and eau de Cologne, Florida water, scented hair lotions and oils, face creams and cosmetics are in constant demand. German, French and English firms send out sales- men every year or six months to look after this trade. Few. if any. American perfumes are to be found on the Siamese market. The peo- ple here* prefer jasmine, rose and violet scents. Ordinary kerosene lamps are used In most Siamese houses outside of Bangkok, as only that city has elec- tric lighting and coal is too expen- sive for use in producing illuminat- ing gas. The greatest demand is for wall lamps, which are used in the thousands of houseboats which line the rivers and canals of Siam and in the homes of the peasants. Such lamps sell at 25 to 50 cents each. but. according to consular and trade reports, nearly every kind of lamp finds a sale in Siam. Only the most ordinary lamps are made in this country by the Chinese tinsmiths, the rest being imported. Instead of being used as a bever- age, the leaves of the tea plant, af- ter being fermented, are rolled into balls, one of which is placed in the hollow of the cheek and allowed to remain there until the soluble con- tents have been exhausted by the saliva. This use of tea is common in northern Siam. The tea plant is cultivated to only a small extent, but is found wild on hill slopes. In lower Siam tea drinking is indulged in to a considerable extent, espe- cially among the Chinese. Most of the tobacco produced in Siam. about 3.000.000 pounds f. year, valued at $500,000. is con- sumed at home, the exports last year amounting to only 10.267 Ibs., most of which went to Hongkong. The tobacco leaf grown there is said to be of peculiarly fine texture and would probably displace for- eign tobacco in the local markets if it were cured by modern methods. At pre-it-nt the leaves are kept in the dark until partly dry, then folded lengthwise one upon an- other, cut into cross sections and exposed to t''o sun for a day or two, after which they are ready for con- sumption. One of the chief uses for tobacco in Siam is for cigar- ettes. A considerable quantity of native tobacco is mixed with areca nut and betel leaf and used for chewing, the imported tobacco ne- ver being used for this purpose. Cured of Shingles and Eczema By Cuh'cura Soap and Ointment. Chest Raw, Bleeding and itchy. "I Just want fo say a Rood word for Cutl. ' curm Soap and Oimment. In November, I'.'iv.

If your wife does daily labor to provide the kids with crusts, you cannot impress your neighbor with your views upon the trusts. Love will grow in strength and ardor, Cupid wear his sweetest grin, where there's beefsteak in the larder and potatoes in the bin. Mules are great; we praise them loudly : sing their virtues through the years, till they get swelled up, and proudly go to bragging of their ears. When <.he tyrants grind our face* or upon our bodies walk, it's be- cause we're keeping cases much too closely on the clock. It is well that some are carving furrows on the fertile farm, for the country would be starving if we all viewed with alarm. Mary had a woolly creature which achieved such lasting fame that it soon became a feature of the mov- ing-picture game. Truth is loaded down with shack- les which she strives to break in vain ; nearly every hen that cackles adds a fresh link to the chain. Swat your children with no swat- ters ; punishment has little sense : never whip your sons and daughters till you must in self-defense. Probably a tiresome bore or t something worse you will be called, if you sell a hair restorer while your dome of thought is bald. A FOOD CONVERT. Good Food the True Road ta Health. The pernicious habit some per- [ sons still have of relying on nause- ous drugs to relieve stomach trou- ble, keeps up the patent medicine business and helps keep up the j army of dyspeptics. Indigestion dyspepsia is caused by what is put into the stomach in the way of improper food, the kind that so taxes the strength of the digestive organs they are actually ' crippled. When this state is reached, to re- ; sort to tonics is liking whipping a tired horse with a big load. Every ! additional effort he makes under the lash diminishes his power to move the load. Try helping the stomach by leav- : ing off heavy, greasy, indigestible j food and take on Grape-Nuts - light, easily digested, full of strength for nerves and brain, in every grain of it. There's no waste of time nor energy when Grape- , Nuts is the food. "I am an enthusiastic user of i Grape-Nuts and consider it an ideal ' food.'' writes a Maine man : "I had nervous dyspepsia and was all run down and my food seemed to do me but little good. From reading an advertisement 1 1 tried Grape-Nuts f.u<l, and. after 1 a few weeks' steady use of it. felt ; greatly improved. "Am much stronger, not nerv- ous now, and can do more work without feeling so tired, and am better every way. "I relish Grape-Nuts best with cream and use four heaping tea- spoonfule as the cereal part of a meal. I am sure there are thou- ; sands of persons with stomach trouble who would be benefited by j using Grape-Nuts. Name given by j Canadian Post urn Co., Windsor, ; Ont. Read tK- little book.

Small substances like- cinder duat, small chips of .stone or metal can usually be removed from the eye by simple methods.

Sweep from the outer lid toward the nose and draw down. This will us- ually clean the eye. If it does not, ' the upper lid must be turned in- side out. which is easy to do, and ; the particle, whi-h can easily be seen now. removed with a soft- handkerchief or piece of cotton.

A WONDEBFLL DISCOVERY An eminent scientist, the other day, gave his opinion that the most 1 wonderful discovery of recent years was the discovery of Zam-Buk. Just think ! As soon as a single thin layer of Zam-Buk is applied to a wound or a sore, such injury is in- sured against blood poison! Notj one species of microbe has been found that Zam-Buk does not kill ! ' Then again. As soon as Zam-Buk ! is applied tr-i a sore, or a cut. or to , skin disease, it stops the smarting:. : That is why children are such friends of Zam-Buk. Again. As soon as Zam-Buk is applied to a wound or to a diseased part, the cells beneath the skin's surface are so stimulated that new healthy tissue is quickly formed. This forming of fresh hea'thy tissue from below in Zam-Buk 's secret of healing. This is why Zam-Buk cures are permanent. Only the other day Mr. Marsh, of 101 Delorimer Ave., Montreal, called upon the Zam-Buk Co. and told them that for over twenty-five years he had been a martyr to ec- zema. H:s h.i!i<i- were at one time so covered with sores that he had to sleep in gloves. Four years ago Zam-Buk was introduced to him, and in a row months it cured him. To-day over three years after his cure of a disease he had k>r twenty- five years he is still cured. All druggists 3*1!

For some time the French police have suspected a milk vendor. . named Noziere. of watering his ; milk. Several times samples of milk which M. Noziere was deliver- ing were submitted to the experts '. of the Paris Municipal Laboratory, , and each time these were declared t<> contain a large proportion of; water. The milk vendor protested ( his innocence, and even invited the j police to witness the milking of his t-ows. This they did, but the "pure" milk samples which were taken away on these occasions were always found to be welj-watcred. The solution of the problem was forthcoming the other day. An in- spector called at M. Noziere's place unite unexpectedly and asked the vendor to milk a certain cow. The official, who kept a vigilant eye on the milker, noticed that he fumbled with his right hand in the vicinity of his waistcoat pocket. "What are you doing!" asked the inspector. "Oh. it is only my braces that hurl me,'' answered the milk dealer; but in a second the in- spector had unbuttoned the waist- coat and discovered there an ingen- ious contrivance of two small rub- ber pipes, connected with rubber bags containing water. By the pressure of his elbow on the bags the unscrupulous vendor could, with but little risk of detec- tion, add a considerable quantity of water to the milk pail. There are probably no fish in the sea as large a* those reported by anglers to have got away. Mlnard's Liniment for sal* everywhere. "That novelist says he takes his characters from real life."
