WHY 7 ° Our exchanges warn us to swat the fly and combat the mosquito. Why should we not combat the fly and swat the mosquito? The fly has a raiher bolder manner than the mos- quito and advances without a war sons. He likes to light near one's nose or ear and scoot around like a wood- louse looking for a point to disappear in. The fly likes to skirmish on a bald head, whether it belongs to a baby or an aged cifizen. He brings fever instead of a chill, like a mos- quito, who lurks in foul swamps and approaches us to make his depreda- tians in the dark. 1t looks to us as if the reason we not swat the mosquito is because s more of a strategist than. the fly, and delights in getting us when we are too perspiry and emervated to swat at the Gay’s end; or when we are 1g slumber. This is the reason the scientist gets after him with kerosene when he is voung; and seals him up in the swamp-holes to own. But it takes much of a strategist to swat the fly as to combat the mos- quito, He is the pertest little assail- nt known to man and he likes to fool with the swatter. He is a lively little aviator and after he has dodged the swatter a score of times he will take a spiral plunge for the milk pitcher and drown im that, to show he has no fear of man or deat He eastern Comnecticut we do not have the malarial mosquito lurk- ing in our swamps as they have Bim elsewhere, so we do not scientifically combat him; but we are daily swat- ting the fly with mankind and woman- kind in all parts of the country. A CAMP FOR FEEBLE INFANTS. New Bedford, following the example of Philadelphia and some other cities, has established an open-air camp for sick infantsas a means of giving them . cool and inyigorating atmosphere when they need it. ‘The camp has been established on Cove road where s abound. The place has an old-fashioned garden with grape arbors, there is a house at hand in which rooms have been granted to the committee for administration pur- poses, while a large garage with big. swinging doors and many windows will be ‘the camp itself. The capacity will twelve inf s at first, with the an increase should it be nd necessary, and children of less than eighteen months, preferably of less than a year, will be the ones ac- cepted. The increase to the full num- ber that the camp will accommodate, twenty-five, will be dependent largely on the possibility of securing sufficient trained assistance, The cases that the camp will take will be principally gastro-enteritis and infant debility, in fact just those ba- es whose lives may be saved by resh air and proper feeding. The > will be used during the night doors and windows open and in daytime the children will be moved the shade of the arbors. For mical outiitting suitable for a work, that of the New Bedford is noteworthy. For cribs baskets will be used, costing less than one dolizr each, with hay mattresses made by voluntary work, above which there 1ced a washable pad. Wash- able linings are also fitted to the bas- kets.
