L TILE ROANOKE NEWS, THURSDAY, JUNE 4, 1S91. t i w la sb T THE ROANOKE NEWS. THURSDAY JUNE 4, 1891. A WOMAXS'S WEAPON. "What is a woman's weapon ?" I asked of a charming girl. She dropped her hushes shyly. And stroked a vagrant earl, Then consciously she murmured. This rosebud newly out : ''I have a strong suspicion Uer weapon is a pout.-' "What is a woman's weapon ?" I asked of Farmer Straw. He looked at me in wonder; Then sadly muttered : "Law, Don't mention it to Xancy," And down his head he hung ; "But I am ot the 'pinion Her weapon is her tongue." AVhnt is a w oman's weapon ?" 1 asked a matron tall. That graced the kitchen wall. "There stands a woman's weapon !'' Mie cried in tones of ire, And swiftly I retreated Before that l:int so dire. What is a woman's weapon ';" I asked a lover true. He turned him to a maiden, With eyes of heavenly blue ; Her velvet lips vere parted, All innoeeut of b'lile. lr.,1 1 1 . "Her weapon is a smile." "What is a woman's weapon ?'' I asked a poet then. With sudden inspiration He seized upon his pen. "Oh ! I could name a thousand," He cried in accents clear : "But woman's surest w eapon, I grant yon. is a tear." A FLY ESSAY. Bucklen's Arnica Salve.

The fly has some advantages over a man. For instance, he has a pair of double compound tyts ami with tlicui he can see in any direction at once without turning its bead. These eyes have 4,ii00 di-timt facets' and all of them have direct coiuuiuniea tion with the braiu: s that i:' a uiau comes along on one side i.f him and a lump of sugar on the other, he will be able to watch both of them aud stay fur, the sugar so long as it is safe on account of the man. When he sees he can get one and dodge the other, that is exactly what he does, and he does not have to twit his , neck in two trying to keep track of the : opposite object. The fly is particular about the air he breathes. He hasn't a very big mouth and his lungs are small in proportion to j Lis body, but he is particular what he puts into them. He has provided himself with a min ute screen, which has been stretched across his throat, and through this he strains the air before inhaling it, and to preserves his precious life to the very' limit of longevity. A rupture to this j screen would be fatal to the fly. j Good gTeen tea. such as the best of j the grocers sell for a dollar, steeped pret ty strong and well sweetened, will kill as many flies as drink of it. And they will drink of it as readily as a '-coon'' will ' play craps. It is estimated that a pound of tea and two pounds of sugar will rid I a room of flies withiu ten days that is a small room. ' Flies are voracious eaters. They do not care so much what they eat as when they eat it. They are particular about , regular meals. They do not eat Ions at a time, nor much at a time, but thev eat : often. One female fly will produce" 20,-! 000 young flies in a single day, and they j will develop so rapidly as to increase two ' hundredfold in weight in tweoty-four hours. WELDON, N.
