scouts, and they came to a rise over
which the scout reported there were en-

marched on, only to find that the sol
dier's tents were in reality Indian tepees.
Il was a large body of Cheyennes under
Chief Grey Bird. Young's command had

by a stroke of diplomacy, got the Inllian

did was to the clothes Of the general and

WHAT MALARIA is.
Disease Caused by Millions Of Para
sites in the Blood.

From the New York Times.
The three classic types Of malaria.
namely, the quotidian, tertian, and quar-
tan fevers, with recurring attacks Of
from one TO three days interval, were
shown by Golgi. of Pavia, to be caused
by three varieties OF a parasite. averaging
a billion to each patient, all sporulating
at once in periods of seventy-two hours,
forty-eight hours and twenty-four hours.
Each parasite bursts the vitiated blood
cOFpusele in which it is enveloped and at
tacks another The simultaneous on
siaught Of the billion little animals causes
the shivering and the burning fever.
Dr. Laveran, d French army surgeon,
In 1850 discovered the parasites, two and
a half centuries after Peruvian bark, the
specific that kills them off, was found by
an obscure villager Of Malacotos, near
Loxa, in EcudOr. Pelletier and Caven-
ton. in 1920, separated its essential aka
loid, Quinine. This drug has saved more
lives than have been lost in the battles
OF the civilized world. Koch and his
successors discovered that the natural
antitOXio mechanism Of the body some
times suficed 10 render tropical children
immune, II they survive the fever. Never
theless exact investigation shows con-
clusively that:
The disease hangs like a cloud over
the tropics. prOstrating or Staying every
year untold millions Of human beings, es-
pecially Of the young; gripping. not only
the native, but the pioneer, the soldier,
the trader, and the administrator; and
shutting out civilization from any of the
most fertile tracts OF the world"
An American, A +. A King, first sug-
gested, IN 1883, that the infection is caused
by the bites Of mosquitoes. Savage
tribes, including the Cingalese, had, It is
true adumbrated the theory centuries
ago. Since 1891 the researches Of Ross
and Manson, or Koch, and of practical in
Vesugators Ike Bignami, established the
fact that the miasms or bad air" Of
marshes cannot communicate the fever.
but the Anopheline mosquitoes, which rise
from the stagnant waters. There is no
other way by which malaria is spread.
and the mosquitoes derive the parasites
from infected patients
The Anophelines flock by themselves
with scientific knowledge OF the waters
IN which they breed and with modern
systems OF drainage, Maj. Ross sees for
tropical sanitation glorious future.

BIG PROFITS IN THREAD.
4 Little HaIf-cent Duty that Night
Be Investigated by Congress.


Frcm the Chicago Rcc1-i-He.sld.
J. & p. Coats, limited. thread manu-
facturers. with some factories IN Scot
land and many in the United States, made
q profit Of approximately Sl5,0j0,C00 last
year on S51O00, coo Of capital. Fifty-dollAT
shares OF the company sell in the market
al S5I7.5o
The duty on thread in spools Of lO0
yards or less is half q cent a spool
All huge profits are by no means due
20 the special advantages given by ,arl6
schedules, but profits like this are due to
something very special in the oIgani=a-
ton Of the business, 10 something that IS
worth seeking for and finding and oIimi-
mating If possible.
The big profits are not themselves evil,
but the fact that they are collected from
the spools Of thread which form part OF
the material OF so many other Industries
and which are used so inevitably in every
home, however poor, is at least pre-
sumption Of evil.
Compared with the Coats Company, the
American Thread Company itself q pre-
tentiOus combination, is but an infant,
But even il, on its par capitalization Of
some 100000 made about 100000 last
year The Coats figures probably give q
mGch better idea of the ratio Of profits TO
actual investment.
The half cent spool duty manife9tly
deserves the careful consideration of Con-
gress when it lakes up the question Of
tariff revision.

From the American Home Monthly.

performers. 1t was the first performance
of the amateur. and. in the course Of the
play, a very fine brand Of music was

was to be heard.
In the third act the nervous young
amateur, who was playing a minor part,
was to rush on the stage while the band
was playing its sweetest, and cry;
Stop the music; the king IS dead"
The critical moment came, and the ex-
cited, highly strung amateur rushed in.

FLowER-DECKED BANNERS

The effect of this processional is much heightened if the different classes carry fiower-decked banners bearing some motto. At all events, each little march CT should have his posy or bunch of flowers.
 Few children come to Children's Day bunch of daisies, but lest there are those who forget or are too poor it is well for the committee to provide extra flowers to make up the lack, that no child be disappointed or feel different from the. others.
 The decorations should be just as pro- fuse and beautiful as possible. Fortu- nately,. this is easy to arrange, with the woods and gardens full of lovely bloom. Let the windows be banked with flowers, gallery, pillars, choir rails twined with oak bpughs or daisy chains, and chancel or pulpit turned to a bower of color. A background of palms adds much to the effect.
 Such decorations mean hard work for the committee, but it pays in the delight dren themselves are allowed to help trim, or at least bring in flowers. Often different classes each take window to mass with flowers. If the season per mits nothing makes a more striking decoration than to use hundreds of pink and white peopies.
