small group OF forward-looking scien-

gave their lives that thousands Of
other lives might be saved.
''Dr. Carlos Finlay it was" said DIR.
Ross, who first advanced the theory
that the stegomyia eallopus or day
mosquito is the carrier OF yellow
fever. He was physician in Havana,
and for many years, because of his
theories in regard to yellow jack
he was called ''loco" by the Cubans
and derided by most well-meaning
doctors. When the Americans occu-
pied Cuba however. it was decided to
give DR.. Finlay's theories thorough
investigation. A small hand of doc
tors, among whom We're DR.. Walter
Reed, DR. I4azear and Dr. Carroll of
the United States army, and DR.. Agra
monte, a Cuban, set up isolation
rooms, well-screened with mosquito
netting, in the suburbs Of Havana and
began the attempt to prove that yel-
low fever can be carried only by the

DR.. Ross work took him later to
Panama. Here. as a member of the
health beard of 1904, he recommended
that steps be taken to wine out the
mosquito throughout the Canal Zone
The recommendations of the board
were not followed, and yellow fever
increased so rapidly that the very
completion Of the canal was threat
ened. Then the commission turned
the sanitation of the Canal Zone over

DR.. John w. Ross Declares City
Must Be Ever on Alert
Against Danger r..

Commenting the local health au-
thorities for their work against the
mosquito, and at the same time point
ing out the absolute necessity for con-
tinuing the work, Medical Director
John w. Ross, u. s. N, retired, reeog-
niZed as enc Of the foremost mosqui-
TO authorities in the world, yesterday
gave his opinion on the local situation.
with the opening of the Panama
canal" DR.. Ross explained, lit will be
all the more necessary for Honolulu
TO continue a relentless campaign for
the determination Of the mosquito.
Vessels coming from Vera Cruz, New
Mexico (where yellow fever is always
prevalent), from Brazilian ports or
from Panama NAV we'll carry in their
holds mosquitoes that have been in
fected by person suffenng from yell
low feTer. There is also danger andi
perhaps a greater danger, from the
anophelas or mRlaria1 mosquito.
To guard the city against contagion,
il is simply necessary to fumigate
with sulphur or other disinfectant the
cargoes and holds of all ships arriving
from infected por.S. This the authori-
ties are doing even at the present
time with great efficiency, and they
should be given every means to con-
tinue the work In the future. It is
not at all difficult to kill a mosquito;
few whiffs OF the sulphur fumes are
enough to settle him forever. The
lifetime of the average mosquito is
from so to Gu days, and, If allowed to
thrive, he can accomplish a wonderful
amount Of harm during that period.
Keep After 'en.
The work of the health authorities
by no means ends, however" Dr. Ross
continued, when the ships cargo has
been fumigated. At all times on land
measures of sanitation should be pur-
sued with view to exterminating the
little carrier of yellow jack and ma
laria so far as Is possible. congratu-
late the local authorities upon the
work they have already accomplished
along these lines Honolulu is now
absolutely free from the malarial mos
quito and while the stegomyia or yell
low fever mosquito is here its num-
bers are limited.
These mosquitoes are harmless in
a community until a case of yellow
fever or malaria is. brought in from
some infected port. Then they at
once become infected and act as car
riers of the disease. Thus, under
present conditions. even If yellow
fever case were to come to Honolulu,
the danger of an epidemic could prob
ably be forestalled because there are
so few of the stegomyia here to carry

Kingsley, Mich.-"Last May my

come on her cheek It started in four
or five small pimples and in two or
three hours time spread to the size of

Then water would run from the PIN

ed more sores until nearly all one
cheek and up her nostrils were one
solid sore She was very fretful. She
certainly was terrible looking child,
and nothing seemed to be of any use.
.'Then I got some Cuticura Soap and
Cuticura Ointment. She tried to rub
off everything we put on so that we
would sit and hold her hands for two
hours at a time, trying to give the
medicine a chance to help her, but
after 1 washed it with Cuticura Soap
and then put on the Cuticura Oint-
ment they seemed to soothe her and
she did not try to rub them of. It
was only a few days before her face
