destruction. In 1897 California declared
that every person who shall at any time

the purpose Of propagation, or for educa-

The MUSICAL MOSQUITO
Two Sorts Of This Buzzing Insect
to Enrage Mankind.
One of Them. the AnOphcIes. Leaves
the Poison Germs of Malaria In It's
Malignant Character Difference
Between the Pair Fully Explained.

DIR. Henry Hail. of the Army Medical
Museum, las given no little study to the
subject of the distinctions between the
malarial mesquite and its innocuous kin
bred. Without doubt investigations upon
this topic are valuable. following upon tho
conclusive evidence already obtained that
the anopheles. or poisonous mosquito. is
the real cause of malarial fever. DR..
Hall in discussing the subject with rep
resentative of The Times, described the
manner In which anyone can tell whether
a mosquito adhering to a vertical surface.
as, for Instance, wall of a room. is pois-
onous or not.
THE principal difference" he said.
(which will enable the ordinary observer
to distinguish the malarial mosquito from
the harmless one is in the attitude "a
sumed by the insect when resting on wall
In the anopheles, the poisonous or mslaTial
variety. the axis Of the body is almos. yer-
teal to tie wall, while in the culsx. the
harmless variety. it is parallel to the sur
quito when 1t is seated no matter on what
object can tell at glance to which genus
It belongs. To describe it in a popular way.
the tail of the anopheles is said to stick
outward while that Of the culex points
downward. or Is even inclined little
toward the wall, or whatever object 1t is
upon. In short. the anopheles. when seat
ed, look somewhat like a thorn affixed on
a surface by its point, the proboscis being
directed toward the surface on which it
happens to be resting. while in the cu.ex
the proboscis is directed parallel to the
surface.
Another striking difference Is that in
anopheles the wings generally have sew
eral usually four dark spots along the
anterior edge. while in the culex the wings
are usually without any spots.
~ third difference is that an anopheles
the proboscis appears peculiarly thick and
long. giving the insect a pelican like APP
pearsnce. They vary much in color from
a light fawn to a greenish black.
THE anopheles breed in stagnant wa
ter, ponds. marshes, etc, while the culex.
though also native OF most localities.
is partial to running streams. 1t is sin
cerely to be hoped that the efforts now be-
ing made by scientists to stamp out ma
laria by destroying its cause. the malarial
may prove effectual."

John Hayden. of Heydentown. Fayette

interested John Nicholson, of Philadelphia,

Past the shadow and the night.

There awaits a golden height
To reward eudeavor.
Spite of grieving and of pain
For the ones gone from US
Shining over sorrows rain
Is bow of promise.
God above the tempest smiles
Through the clouds OF sadness;
In the sunny afterwhiles
There is joy and sladness-
In the home. when toll is done.
One awaits TO meet US;
There are little feet to run.
Laughing eyes to greet us.
After all. the world is fair.
God is good above us.
When there's some one else to care,
Some one else to love US.
There are songs OF Joy afa>..
If you stop TO listen.
Hope can see a silver star
Ger the morning glisten.
Past the Futures open gate
Brighter days are cleaning:
Death and parting, wrong snd hate.
These are only seeming
Though disasters line theaway
That awaits before me,
In the province of To-day,
There is sunshine o'era.me.
Onward through a fair To-Be
Is my spirit winging;
While voice OF melody
Through my heart is ringing;
And my soul IN ecstasy
Is singing.
