DUCKS PREVENT MALARIA.

To the average citizen the humble
duck seems to play q purely passive
part in maintaining human life. and
means nothing but dollar and q
quarter plate or something difficuls,
to carve. But an American doctor
has made the important discovery
that ducks are among the most eff
tective enemies of the insects THAI
endanger human life In all low and
marshy countries. The mosquito Is
we'll known to be the chief agent in
the dissemination of yellow fever and
malaria germs, and sanitarians have
devised many and devious ways OF
destroying these insects in the lafvai
stage, when they live in the water
and arc popular known as wig
glers." Hundreds Of thousands OF
dollars have been spent in tropical
countries screening all open water In
cities. and in other elaborate designs
against the life and well-being Of
the wiggler.
Now the duck comes forward as
the most fcrocions and implacable
natural enemy which the wiggler
has. With his spoon-like mandiblss.
edged with tiny, sieye-like teeth, a
common domestic duck will fairly
dredge pond Of all its wiggler in
|habitants. In the experiments which
have been tried. ordinary nallards
were used. and the wiggler popula-
ton was allowed to multiriy before

Gold fsh were also tried FIRST as ex-
,terminators, but they seemed to live
happily with the wiggiers. The
ducks, however. quickly cleaned up
the wigglers and then started in on
the gold fish. In the opinion Of
those who conducted tho expert
ments, the maliard has proved his
right to higher destiny than the

Poisons and Habit-F Forming Drugs.
In the health reports issued by the
United States Public Health Service
this week there appears a discussion
and digest OF recently enacted state
laws regulating the possession, use.
sale and emanufacture Of poisons and
habit-forming drugs. With them are
presented a compilation OF the laws
and regulations on the subject regent
ay enacted in thirty-two states.
(, This compilation OF laws empha-
sizes again the frequently made OBJ
iservation that the average American
has an abiding confidence in the pos
isible value OF statute law. 1t also
suggests that the laws relating 70
the manufacture, sale and use OF
Ipoisons, while numerous, are not
Ieffectual largely because of the in
liability or unwillingness OF the prop
Ter authorities to enforce them.
Much OF the difficulty encountered
in enforcing laws relating to poisons
is due to the fact that we have as yet
no popular1y acceptable definition
for a poison. Individuals generally
feel that they understand what is
meant by "a poison" but efforts to
satisfactorily limit this meaning have
lsignally failed. This is so largely
because of the fact that by far the
greater amount of the material that
may be classed as poisonous is sell
dom recognized as being a menace to
human life.
4 Considerable interest Is evidenced
MT k11n rHpa ~,
the need for greater uniformity in
laws relating to the manufacture,
sale and use of poisons or OF articles
that may contain poisons, and the
desirability of having the various
state laws conform In their general
requirements, at least, to. the cor
responding requirements Of federal
lava. -
It has been pointed out that the
several state food and drug laws
while following the same general
pattern usually differ to some extent
and these differences, particularly
the paragraphs relating to the label
ling Of preparations have come to be
Ia constant annoyance to the manu-
Ifacturer, the jobber and the retailer.
The jobber and the retailer are more
directly interested as the manufac-
lturer having labelled his products IN
accordance with the federal law may
ship them into any state regardless
OF the special requirements OF the
Etate law. thus making the other
branches Of the trade liable in the
event that the goods do NO comply

Life And Equal Suffrage

The issue of Life" OF March 26 is
devoted to Equal Suffrage. in which
the attempt is made to treat the sub
ject with that wit and lightness for
which the periodical is famous.
And yet, somehow, the number does
not seem TO have accomplished just
what it apparently set out to do-to
amuse the American public by pre-
senting equal suffrage in a humorous
light. Even the attempt to make
Uncle Sam ridiculous by dressing him
up IN woman's garb has failed. He
stands before us with a fine dignity
and thoughtful face. in spite of his
curis, his full skirt and his pantaletts.
1t may be remembered that more
than one hundred years ago Abigail
Adams wrote to her husband, when
this great free country OF ours was
in the formative stage: Don't for
get the women, when you are making
laws for the men, for If you do they
will foment revolution"
Somehow when one looks at Uncle
Sam. as in his feminine garb he stands
before US on the cover of Life" one
feels as II, IN his kindly and critical
way he were thinking on these things,
dressed as he is in a travesty OF the

dignity, in hts woman's clothes.

| on the faces Of the laughing priests,
| and the fact that one of the fathers
is whispering to another, with furtive
glances at the girlish figure in boys
dress. Somehow, the dominant figure
in the picture is young priest who
stands in the background, and looks
as IL he would like to punch some
body's head. Whose head it is we
are not in position to say, not hav-
ing yet consulted the artist, but we
feel sure 1T is not that of the pretty
feminine aviator.
Life is full of many contradictions
it would not be Life IL it were not, and
perhaps it would not do to try to dis
sect the jokes and pictures which fill
up the Equal Suffrage number. in an
endeavor to find the point. No doubt
1t In because women have TO sense OF
humor. For certainly the number must
be amusing. 1t may even be because
women never appreciate Jokes about
themselves, unless they understand
them. Or it may be that they never
understand them If they are about
themselves. Or 1t may be that women
have not the proper sense of humor. 1t
may even be that they have not an
improper sense of humor.
Really. after one has read the Equal
Suffrage number of Life, one realizes
that as long as there is Life there is
hope for the Equal Suffrage move
ment in America, for Life is real
Life is earnest, at last. Having made
a real and earnest effort to be anus
ing it has succeeded in being funny-at
it's own expense.
1t may even be that Life is in favor
OF Equal Suffrage. and doesn't know
1t. Certainly that would be a joke
on Life-but then Life is full OF just
such jokes.
After all, one must never take Life
too seriously, for Life is what we make
it, we are often told, and SO long We
have loved Life and enjoyed Life that
it would he a pity to look upon Life
with a frowning face, or to lay down
Life for the sake OF Equal Suffrage.
No. rather will we laugh at Life, and
hope that its sense Of humor will i'm
prove. Or that it may even become
Indeed a headline, "Our Own Sus-
picion," over a letter to Life from a
suffragist, who is trying ID work re-
form, leads one to hope that Life is
just about ready to get on the right
side. Life has done such splendid
work on the child labor question that |
even the ridiculous number on Equal
Suffrage may be forgiven. For again |
we insist: AS long as there is Life |
there is hope for Equal Suffrage, par |
