expensive procedure, the society oc-
ment of the anti-plasmodic prophy-
laxiS-the administration of quinine.
For this purpose it has promoted
and defended legislation for the gratui-
tous distribution of quinine to the poor
and to all workers in malarial localities.
I'm order to render possible the proph-
ylaxis and to prolong the treatment, it
has prepared the quinine in its most
agreeable forms-namely, that of COM
fits and chocolates. the latter contain
ing tannate of quinine. which has lit
tie taste, and is better tolerated by
children.
1.-THE results have been that since
1902, when the law on state quinine
was promulgated, while the consump-
ton of quinine has been yearly in
creasing, the mortality from malaria
has diminished from about $1,000 to
bauot 1000 yearly; and in the army, GUS
tom house offices and in some COM
munes where the new laws have been
better applied the morbidity from mall
aria has greatly diminished
"By those measures. and by means of
the agricultural and agrarian trans
formation of the land and colonization,
rather than by the destruction of mos
quitoes Ga thing impossible to be done
by us on a large scale) Italy may be
freed from the scourge.
Malaria illustrates stages through
which so many of the great dis
coveries in medicine have had to
pass. At first a period of doubt
that the actual germ had been
discovered seemed too good news
to be true, and for ten years or more
there was much. and perhaps justifi-
able scepticism. Except for the great
help in diagnosis, we did not get much
further until 1898. when the expert
ments of Ross demonstrated the truth
of the old suggestion OF Lancisi (re-
vised by King and by Manson). that
the disease was transmitted by the
mosquito. And now we are in the stage
of prevention--the practical application
of the knowledge of the cause and the
method OF it's action"

REACHED THE RIGHT PLACE
Man Who "NeVer Said an unklnd
Word About Anybody" classed
with Hypocrltes.

"The late John R. Considine," said
a New York hotel man, had a host
Of friends. Yet he was never afraid
to speak his mind. He hated hypo-
critics.
when Considine was managing
Corbett so successfully happened to
praise at a dinner a pugilist he dis
liked. / said:
"'There's a man who never said an
unkind word about anybody in his
life.'
"Mr. Considine laughed. He said
that such men always recalled to
him Ira Slick.
"Tra Slick he explained, died.
After death he mounted the stairs
Of gold confidently, and he knocked
with confidence at the golden gate.
"'But st. Peter, frowning heavily,
stuck his head out of the wicket and
pointed down.
$50, very much astonished and
pained, Ira Slick descended to the
lower regions. He came to a black
gate from which flames and sulphur
GUS smoke spouted. A fiend stood at
the entrance, fiery trident upright
in his hand like spear.
""What are you doing down here,
ira Slick?" demanded the fend.
"'''T'm sure don't know" said Ira,
plaintively. "rhere must be some mis-
take. l never in all my life said an
unkind word about anybody"
"'That's all right" said the hend,
quickly: "Step this way, please. At
the end Of the bottom corridor, next
to the fire, you'll find the hypocrites'
cage."'"

WHY skat Is.

Years ago in Germany the people
who played cards divided the pic
lures into three sections, the kings,
queens and bauern (farmers) orwhat
we now term the Jacks. Back as far
as 1885 q lawyer Of Altenburg, who
was also a student Of "taroc," card
game Of those times, conceived an
other game, which is now called skat.
In the new game he placed the bau-
ern or bowers above the royalty and
1t so pleased the farming element at
that time that skat was adopted as
the national game. It was only, a
short time after the lawyer invented
the new game that the rebellion Of
1sl9 took place and it is quite rea-
sonable to suppose that the idea Of
making the bauern rule over the rep
resentatives of royalty appealed to
the growing sentiment Of the times.

ner Of Ailments.

Neurasthenia, according to DR.. Dio'
mede Garlic of Naples, an authority
on that disease, is responsible for all
manner Of evils. Lying, spitefulness,
grumbling, OVersensitiyeness to criti'
cism, excessive shyness, lack Of will
power, inability to concentrate,
tendency to alternating paroxysms Of
exaltation and Representatives, and
many other defects Of character may
be traced not infrequently, he says.
to neurasthenia. So deeply impressed
is he with the menace Of the disease
that he suggests en- international con-
ference on the subject.
The British Medical Journal, which
quotes his views, takes the matter less
seriouxly. Neurasthenia, It says, is
often merely a high-soundlng name for
that tired feeling. The root Of the dis
eases lies in unsuitable education.
Competition, the journal says, Is too
much the test of merit nowadays, and
the nerves Of pupils are strained to
meet examinations which are not
tests Of knowledge really, but traps
for the. memory" Therein lies neu.

wherever you find them, have knack
of making delightful little rolls that
no other nation can make. II you go
into a German bakery there are in
Vulnerable kinds of coffee cake, all
typically German. Now, II you 90 into
a bakery, except Of the very fanciest
class here, what do you find? You
find bread and rolls that average very
bad, and the same sorts of cake In
all the bakeries. On the other side,
the stores specialize. Many Of the
stores have some little specially that
no other store carries, and the recipe
for which is carefully guarded. It ls
almost impossible for a private family
here to get good bread or rolls from
any bakery"

Fire At Ouapaw.

Word was received in Baxter
yesterday morning that the
Branderson livery barn had
burned, together with all the
contents except the live stock.
Some fellow was mean enough
: to start the report that there
was a box of boot-leg-bug-juice
in the barn and that the conaa-
grafton started ftom keeping up
a fire to keep the precious stuff
from freezing.
