McLeod: “Our meeting closed last night with the largest crowd I ever saw in the church. It was full and some on the stand. The meeting was a great su¢cess, Some of the results were: Thirty added to the church including a few letters that are to come yet. Fifteen on profession of -faith. There was raised nearly $250 for the ex- penses of the meeting. More than 2 hundred people testified that they got. on higher ground There were two or three score of conversations a8 mear as any one can estimate. McLeod is all right. [ believe that there is not a church in the state where he could not make good. He won practically everything to him here. His preaching is strong, some times powerful, and the best of all is that everybody believes in him. I am sure that he knows God. 1 have learned to love him very much, and I cheerfully commend him to any one wanting help.

But scientists have been busy in- vestigating the formation and habits of the tiny creature, and suddenly they have revealed facts which star- tle the world.

It is a matter of life and eath to thousands of men, women and children. This busy buzzing little beast, the common house fly, is the most dan- gerous and deadly wild animal in all !lu world. More persons are killed by it every year than by al] the oth- er polsonous insects, all the snakes, and all the beasts of prey combined. More persons fall victims each year t» the common house fly than are killed on all the fields of battle throughout the world. Capture one of the most insigni- ficant looking flies buzzing around your baby’s head as she lies sleeping, put the fly under a microscope, and at once its character s revealed. You can hardly refrain from start- ing back in horror at the thounht that your baby is constantly being attacked by so lvrr&»lu a beast. Each foot of the fly is covered with claws and little sticky hairs. You have seen many times how the fly is con- tinually rubbing his feet together. He does this to scrape off everything that adheres to his feet and legs. These sticky feet are loaded with germs and microbes deadlier than bullets, and the fly industriously wipes them off on your baby's face or on your food.
