powerful odors are repugnant to in
sects. and not long ago garlic, for
example, was thought to possess some
prophylactic qualities. since mosqui-
toes were said to refrain from biting
those who smelt strongly OF that odor-
ferrous plant. 1t is also stated by
some authors that persons who regu-
larly consume a decoction of lemon
peel. which imparts a peculiar odor to
the skin and it's secretions, escape the
bites of insects, which dislike the
smell of the skin in such cases. Some
trees, shrubs and plants, such as the
various kinds OF eucalyptus. the cas-
tor oil plant and citronella, have a GER
tain reputation for preventing mala-
ria, the suggestion at one time being
that this was due to the "balsamic ex-
halations" which they emitted.
Major H. ID. Larymore, retired, OF
the British army, who saw service in
West Africa, has called attention to
the peculiar properties of the "mosqui-
to plant" a species of basil, Ocymum
viride, natural order Labiatae, in re-
pelling mosquitoes. During ten years
service in West Africa he sowed seeds
of the basil plant at every station
where he resided, and to this he at
tributes the freedom which he and his
wife experienced from attacks of "fe-
yer" during that period.
Major Larymore draws attention TO
an analysis showing that the leaves of
the basil plant yield volatile oil
which contains 80 per cent. of thymol
as well as other aromatic substances.
The peculiar properties of the Ocy-
mum viride are therefore believed to
be due to the thymol given of by the
leaves.
II II could be shown that the
odor emitted by these leaves invari.
ably repealed mosquitoes or that the
placing of a plot or two of basil be-
side the bed of the sleeper would save
him from being bitten in the night by
bloodthirsty anophelines, or that the
sowing the garden around the house
with seeds of the basil plant would
keep mosquitoes from entering the
grounds or dwelling, we would then be
able to congratulate ourselves upon
being on the way to simple solution
of the difficult and costly question Of
the prevention of malaria.

praperx on Poster Women.

maica, especially among the members
of the citizens committee, over the re-
ceipt of a letter from a bill posting
