.MALARIAL MOSQUITOES
An Important Question Discussed

Can malaria be contracted in marshy
localities, independently OF the mosquito?
In an experiment made by the famous
Manson, five healthy individuals lived for
several summer months in q hut on the
Roman Campagna. They We're protected
by mosquito netting over doors, windows
and bed During the day they would go
about unprotected, but from sunset to
sunrise would remain in their mosqulto-
proof hut. At the end of the experiment
all were in good health
This experiment proves also that the
night air is no more dangerous than day
air, but the real danger consists In the
presence of infected mosquitoes of a spe-
cies which seek their human food at
night.
TO be immune from the dreaded ma
nria, you should take Elixir Babek, rs an
nnti-malarla tonic and specific for the
destruction of the malaria parasite. A
well-known New Orleans physician says
that Elixir Babek has proven valuable In
malaria, where other preparations nave
failed.
Mr.. J. Middleton, OF Four Mile Run,
Va, says: II have used Babek for four
years. both as Il preventative and cure for
malaria, and have found it more than is
claimed for It. Without Babek ! would
be obliged to change my residence, as
cannot tako quinine in any of its FORMS"
Thousands testify to the benefit derived
from Elixir Babot, and Il stands to rea
son that 1t would not have attained the
ripe age of twenty-five years If 1t did
not possess actual merit.
Those who suffer with malaria, fever
ague. chils and kindred ailments will
find Elixir Babek reliable specific, Sold
