The War Against Mosquitoes.

The experiments on human sub
jects in Cuba seem to have settled
one fact, viz, that the mosquito does
pear the clement of icteroides and
that the culex fasciatus, special
species of mosquito, is most of all to
be dreaded in tropic and temperate
regions. 1t is not yet time to look
upon the mosquito as the sole source
of origin of yellow fever; but enough
has been demonstrated to create in
the minds of thinking people the ur-
gent necessity for destroying the
mosquito and its breed. Nuttall, in
his elaborate monograph on the sub
ject of insects and disease, has elab-
grated a variety of measures for the
destruction of the mosquito. Our
health authorities are now advised of
the need and the method, ana it re-
quires only an appreciative and CO.
operating public to see to the destruc-
ton of the mosquito in every section
of the country. In infested countries,
like India, circulars of instruction
are promulgated and regulations of
the health authorities are made strin-
gent in their enforcement. Where
so much is at stake, our community
should be ready for the crusade as
soon as the way is demonstrated

States, where to make farming pay it
was necessary to cultivate practically
every foot of ground; where it was the
rule rather than the exception to go
to the length of blasting out, if neces-
sary, heavily rooted trees or large
powders; where much of the farm
land was secured by clearing it of tim

privation on the part of the first set

DANGER IN CHILD DREAMS.
Death and Dfsaster Have Frequently
Resulted from Terrible
N1Rhfmares

There is more danger in child
dreams than one would suppose"
said well-known physician, reports
the New Orleans Times-Democrat,
and really but few persons under
stand how close to death the child

fearful rights of the night. Night
mares frequently kill grown persons
md these horrible dreams which come
10 the child life are of the same kind.
This is why I have always bitterly
opposed telling children horrible
tales. There is nothing to be gained
by it. The average child cannot be
frightened into doing the right thing.
u child is inclined to do the wrong
thing a horrible tale will not keep
nim from doing it. On the contrary,
norrible results may follow the hor-

and rolling and broken sleep will fol-
.ow
But there is an even greater dan
ger in the possible death of the child
from shock. Deaths on this account
may not be common among children,
but good per cent. of the persons
who are found dead in bed after hav-
-ng retired at night apparently in
good health die from this cause. It
Is called heart failure, and this is
what it really is. But the question Of
what causes the heart to fail in it's
action is given but little thought.
Now, in many of these cases shock
pure shock-caused by some horrible
uream is responsible for the death
of the person. He may have dreamed
that he was shot through the heart,
or through some other vital organ
OF the body, and may die before he
can arouse himself from his slumber.
Generally the prompt awakening will
save the person, but under other cir
cumstances the person will die be-
fore he can come into possession of
his faculties.
children are very much shocked
by bad dreams. They sometimes find
themselves pursued by wild animal,
and they dream that they are unable
to run, and wake up in a most hor-
rible condition mentally and physic-
ally. But probably the most danger

thought. very common among sleep

very dangerous, and it is wonder to
me that more children are not killed.

that some day the MethodiSts would

The Rev. |. Bowman Stephenson, of

Dr.. Leonard, of New York, thanked
God for what Great Britain was doing
in South Africa and expressed the
hope that the war would soon end
with the Union Jack floating.

taken UP by reports on the progress

The proceedings were enlivened by
an ardent pro-English speech deliv
