Hunting Malaria Microbes.

it is announced that Prof. Koch, bac-
teriologist, of Berlin, who has lately
been hunting the microbe of malaria
in Java and other hot countries, has
perfected a medicine which is to be of
the highest value in all malarial coun-
tries. 1t is half quinine, is to be used
hypodermically and also as swallow
medicine, and is commended both as
cure and as preventive of malaria.
Malaria is very much on the minds of
wise men in many countries just now.
The disposition to blame it all on the
mosquito is supported so far by many
experiments. Not only has health been
maintained in malarious districts
where effectual precautions against
mosquitoes have been taken, but Ital-
ian mosquitoes fed in Rome on ter
tian-fever patients and brought to
London and allowed to bite healthy
man have infected him with tertian
fever. If the rule, mo mosquito, no
malaria" be demonstrated, it will be
great gain, for mosquito bites are
not SO unavoidable as may be thought.

Shooting Stars.

According to Camille Flammarion,
q well-known authority, what are call
ed shooting stars" are small bodies,
weighing at most a few pounds, and
consisting mainly Of iron and carbon.
They traverse space in swarms and
also revolve around the sun in long
elliptical courses like comets. When
these little bodies enter the suns orbit
they are DETECTED toward the earth and
great numbers OF them are seen in a
single night. Their brightness Is due
to the heat engendered by the energy
OF their motion. Their speed is enor-
nous, Az kilometers a second, while
the speed of the earth on its orbit is
only kilometers a second. Conse-
quently when shower of them ap-
proaches the earth in the direction op-
posite to its course. the initial speed
is u kilometers second; when they
follow on its course they gain 161a
kilometers a second on it. Their
mean rate of approach is between 30
and 40 kilometers second. The fric-
ton engenders temperature of 5000
degrees, Celsius, subject to which they
burst into fame.
