or the beginning OF July Tho period
If thY infection lasts in Grosseto only
until thcscnd of September, as rule
and this fact is regarded by Dr Koch
as Of the greatest Importance.
Experience has proved that the ma
laria parasite is found on in the hu-
man organism and in certain insects
which Professor Koch does not es-
peci2lly name but which arc now pop
ularlv known as malaria mosquitoes :
The parasite cannot develop in these
insects except during the hot period %
the year, 50 that for eight or nine
months II exists only in the human or
gansm The real source Of infection
is, accordingly. relapses. which occur
during the spring with unfailing regu-
larity. II Is from these cases that the
malaria mosquito Is infected with the
parasite, and DR. Koch thinks the
whole problem is to prevent relapses
This he would attempt by the system
attic use Of quinine. which is a specific
against the malaria parasite
Cases of malaria should be regarded
as a common danger, and every effort
should he made TO effect permanent
cure during the eight or nine months
when the human organism is the only
place where the parasite can exist. r.

was he first woman ever called to the

a committee Of the whole. Fhe other
women members had often presided
during the regular discussions, but
when Mrs I.ec was asked TO take the

member from Arapahoc blushed and
showed some hesitation Then she

During the sessions Mrs Lee not
only managed her house and cared for
her children but she found time to en-
terrain many guests at her home.
Once some one suggested that the cares

Mrs Lee laughingly replied that any
one who bad the executive ability to
run a house and rear several children

AFTER THE BATTLE.

After one of the late battles in Natal
an old boer was found badly wounded,
propped up among some rough bowl
ders upon a kopje side. His rifle was
laid idly by him, and the old man APP
peared to be waiting for death and was
quietly reading his bible.
1t was out in the rain and the wind
and the groans
tended the wounded, foe and
friend;
l thought with myself that the very
stones
Of the grim veldt side,
If they could, would have cried;
Doctor, don't touch them, Let
death make an end"
And presently. propped by bowlder
gray,
A gray and grizzled old boer | saw;
His whole right hand had been blown
away;
But, quiet and calm,
He was reading Psalm
From blood stained book of the an
Cient Law.
Make haste and help me" the old
psalm ran.
Deliver me; haste to help me, Lord!
Let those who seek my hurt to man
Be put to shame,
That so thy name
Be great upon all who trust thy
word
Poor am |, Lord thou knowest how
poor;
This hand shall never hold sickle
again;
Lord succor me-" groaned the gray
beard boer;
"Tarry not; come
To take me home!
Lord, haste thee and help me out of
this pain"
And there, as he prayed in the rain
and the wind
To the gray old boer from the Orange
Free State
The man who had fought for cattle
and kind
With his sons and sons
Sons less than their guns
TO free his land from the men of
their hate
There came at his call to the God OF
the psalm
The helper of helpers after the fray
And his face grew pale with a Won
derful calm,
And the psalm book dropped,
And the blood jet stopped,
And the pain and the sorrow had
passed away.

THE BATTLE OF NASEBY.
Cromwells Cavalry Destroys the Last
Army OF the King

Mr.. Morley chooses the fourth OF his
Cromwell papers, in the February Cen
fury with an account of the battle OF
Naseby:
Though some, says the modern sol
der, may hold Marston to offer a
greater variety OF striking pictures and
moments of more intensity (Hoenig,
203), there is scarcely battle IN his
tory where cavalry was better handled
than at Naseby. OF the tactics OF
Naseby this second charge OF the
Cromwellian horse stands out con-
spicuous for skill and vigor. There
was still, however, one more move TO
make before victory was secure.
Though aware of the disaster that
was overwhelming him the king stroye
bravery to rally the broken horse Of his
left wing. He was joined by Rupert,
at last returning from the baggage
wagons and Naseby village, with his
men and horses exhausted and out of
breath. Here the Royalists made their
liamentary generals, with eXtraordi-
nary alacrity, prepared for a final
charge, and their preparation was
hardly made before all was over and
the day won. lreton, though severely
wounded in the beginning OF the battle.
mad got his men together again, and he
TOOK an active part in the new attack.
The parliamentary foot, who had been
thrown into disorder by the first
charge, and had then rallied in a
shorter time than imaginable" now
advanced at the best of their speed to
join the horse. For Oliver had got his
force of cavalry once more in hand, and
made ready to bear down on the enemy
for a third and final charge The
horsemen were again drawn up In two
wings within carbine-shot OF the en-
envy, leaving wide space between
the wings for the battle of the loot to
tali in. Thereby says the eye-wit-
ness, there was framed, as it were in
a trice, second good battalia at the
latter end of the day, which the enemy
perceiving, and that # they stood they
must expect a second charge from our
horse, foot, and artillery (they having
lost all their foot and guns before)
and our dragons having already be-
gun TO fire upon their horse, they, not
willing 10 abide a second shock upon so
great disadvantage as there was like to

BEFORE THE CAMERA.
The Prince of Wales Keeps His
Photographer Busy.

The most photographed man in the
world is the prince of Wales Every
new hat or necktie he puts on has to
be photographed, for his Majesty
takes great pride in setting the fash
ions of the day, and is somewhat
vain of the distinction Hence the
photographs.
Next to him, in widely distributed
pictures comes the Princess of Wales
though it must be admitted that hers
are purchased less for the modes they
suggest than for the love which all
the English bear her majesty. Those
which sell the best and are most in de
mand show the princess in fun court
dress and wearing her costly diadem
brilliant with diamonds. Twenty thou
sand of these are sold yearly.
The pope is very peculiar about
having his pictures taken He had
some photographs struck off some Is
years ago which he favors. In most
cases he refuses to have others taken,
He gives as his reasons that his
friends who took the picture have been
true 10 him and he wishes to be true to
them. Although hundreds of thous-
ands of these 15-year-old pictures have
been distributed to loyal Catholics
throughout the world, every year
about $4,000 of them are sold at CON
siderable profit to the pope's friends.
Emperor William of Germany en-
joys having his photograph taken.
Like his uncle, the prince of Wales,
there is fascination about seeing his
| likeness in public, which may possibly
be explained by saying that it runs in
the blood There is a yearly demand
| for $4,000 Of his likenesses.
Emperor Franz Josef has an idea
that he can pose himself better than
any one else can. Hence ne always
chooses his own attitude, Once the
photographer stopped down to press a
crease into his maiesty's trousers. "Ch,
never mind, replied the emperor, "it
would be far better if you could iron
the wrinkles out of my checks. On
another occasion the photographer
said: THAT is a most majestic atti-
tude. Just hold yourself in that posi-
ton for a moment until can arrange
my camera Watt exclaimed the
emperor. Il must draw off my glove.
The ungloyed hand Is an indication Of
ones character. ! must show at least
one of my hands otherwise the picture
would b. spoiled" At this he withdrew
the cove from his right hand, quickly
and easily assuming his original atti-
tude.
The sultan is very diffident about
having his picture taken, When it is
over he acts as If he had been through
very trying ordeal, and takes in
long breaths, as if the strain had been
intense The last time his picture was
taken was when the emperor visited
the east on his trip to the holy land
