else character of the contagious principle
has always been matter OF doubt. Ac-
cording to the latest accounts however, Dr.
Frank Burr Mallory of Boston claims to
have discovered In the deSquamatng skin
believes to be the propagating agent of the
infection. Allowing that the demonstra-
ton of the new protoZoon has been satsfac-
tons of cause and effect seems reasonable
enough. The argument bases itself on
clinical as well as archaeological grounds.
So far, then. the apparent mystery Of In
tercommunicability is quite nationally
solved
The d!scoverer states that the newly
found parasite resembles in many respects
the one associated with the propag cation Of
malarial fevers. If so. it must necessarily
follow the course of the development OF
the malarial protozoon by having IN inter
mediary host to complete the cycle of its
cell life. In malarial fever the parasite
passes a certain part of its existence in
man and another part in the mosquito. and
under certain conditions of development is
transferred from one to the other by the
bite of the insect. Hence the mosquito as
the intermediary host is the main object of
attack. How the analogy can be applied
to scarlet fever remains to be seen. IT, IN
deed, such a comparison is absolutely nee
essary under the circumstances. In any
event this part of the question Is not yet
settled. Until it is the discovery VIII for
the present be Invested of much Of its prac-
teal utility In instituting any new method
of preventing disease.

Habitual users of quinine are slaves to it,
but derive little benefit from it. Men with

too little calomel.
Great fortunes have been made out of it.
however, and its cultivation in Ceylon and
Java is said to be successful. There are
several pretty romances connected with the
discovery of "kina," as the native Indians
of Peru called the cinchona trees from
which quinine is derived. What do you

world is indebted to Louis XIV for it's gem
eral introduction. In France and Italy
physicians who prescribed its use were per-
secuted. Protestants altogether repudiated
it, Robert Talbot, an Englishman, cured
the Dauphin with it. and Louis LIE Grand
was induced to buy the secret. He was the
only king that ever embarked in the drug
business.

Few persons realize what wealth of in

spent years of incredible labor and research
in this study, and one of his monuments is
his work ON the Origin of Cultivated
Plants
AS a single instance of the interest 10 be
found in this study just glance for a mo-
ment at one of our cereals. The cultivation
of wheat is lost in the mysterious past.
Ancient Egyptian monuments. far Older
than the Hebrew Scriptures, show that the
Egyptians had grown this plant for so long
a time that the cultivation was thoroughly
established. They ascribed the gift OF
wheat to their goddess Isis. Rice was
grown in China so long ago as twenty-eight
centuries before the Christian era, for, in
ceremony Instituted al that period, the en-
peror had TO SOW rice once year with re-
ligious rites. Barley and millet also go
back TO the distant past of the early men
who built the lake dwellings of Europe;
oats followed later, and later still came the
cultivation of rye. Maize was grown to
such an extent that varieties were recog-
niZed when Aztec monuments Were raised.
Thus the story goes on, carrying US on to
prehistoric, nay, primitive, times, whose
records are only read in the refuse heaps of
the early farmers of the world.
