Malaria Remedy.

Gentian root often used as a tonic,
is considered in many malarial coun-
tries a remedy against intermittent
fever. Especially is this the case in
Corsica in that section of the island

tested with malaria. The inhabitants
recently protested violently against the
Introduction of quinine on the part of
the medical authorities. declaring that

BIC Price for Rare Coin

One of the rarest American coins is
the five-dollar gold piece of 1922 One
of these coins sold the other day for
S2,165. The last owner of this par
tlcular coin had paid only six dollars
for It, Not until about 20 years ago
did it become known that the half
eagles of 1922 coinage were scarce
enough to be chased among, coins that
command fancy prices because of their
rarity. There were 1873 of them
minted, but at the present time only
three of them are known to exist. Be-
sides the one Just sold there is one In
the coin cabinet of the Philadelphia
mint and another in the private col
lection of Virgil NJ. Brand.

inspired with passion for moving
furniture, who should most certainly

1t would be to have familiar spirit

piano nearer the window or to drag
the chest of drawers out when looking
