INDISPENSABLE QUININE
The Most Valuable Drug in the Whole

from that cause is now less than hait

agency of quinine. England could no.

Livingstone and other travellers in
Central Africa could never have made

said of the great German explorer,
SchWeinfurth, tl.at when he lost his
entire property By fire, valuable scinn-
tilic instruments among the rest, he
felt the loss of his quinine to be the
greatest of ell. and often though with
fear of the journey that lay before
him. which. however. he pers"ve-eG in.
The soldiers in the American Civil
War depended greatly upon quinine.
The pioneers in this country when it
was first settled and civilized, had as
hard work fighting fever and aguc iii

even more necessary than firearms.

thus far taken is that OF the police

to enter the limits of the parish until
further orders.
AS a result the Southern Pacific has
been ordered to run no more trains
through CaI1asiei. which means an
abandonment of the through service of
the line to the west. The Watkins
trains and the Kansas City Southern
trains have also been stopped. 1t is I'M
