PARASITES THAT CAUSE MA
LARA.
The Three Varieties That Prey Upon
the CorpuscIes of Human Blood Ex-
planned by Physician.

AS there are three forms of malaria
the tertian, quartan and aestivo- -autumnal
or pernicious, distinguished by the inter
walls al which they make their appear
ance, SO practically all authorities agree
that there are three distinct species of
the parasites that cause the disease The
chills and fever of tertian malaria appear
every third day-that is, with an interval
of day; those of quartan appear every
fourth day-that is, with an interval of
two days; those of the aestivo- autumnal
come every day
A few Investigators have tried to prove
that there are other varieties. but DR.
Mary r. Lawson of New London, shows
that these are due to distortion by the
experimenters in spreading them on the
microscopic slides.
Dr. Lawson gives several hundred mi
crophotographs of the different kinds OF
malaral parasites in the blood, showing
how they behave
All Of them are extra-cellular through
out their entire life cycle, she says, which
means that they do not get into the red
corpuscles of the blood, but attach them
selves to the outside of these corpuscles
and suck the hemoglobin out of them
The hemoglobin is the red colorng mat
ter of the blood corpuscles, without which
they die.
The parasites capture a corpuscle and
spread their pseudopodia-like tentatles
around one or more mounds of hemoglo-
bin substance squeezed up by the para
sites for the purpose of attachment
When they have sucked all the hemoelo-
bin out they leave the anemic corpuscle
to die and attach themselves to afresh
one. More than one parasite may be at
tached to the same mound. and some
times they overlap each other-Journal

This corroborated the information
given by the morning papers through
The Associated Press. which, with its
thousands of offices all over the coun>
try, is enabled to receive and trans
NIT such piece of news before the
official orders could be transmitted.
The general remarked in the early
afternoon that he had no reason to
doubt the correctness of the report, as
the War department was equally as
careful about the news given out as
The Associated Press was to correctly
transmit it.

Reports from the Maine boys say
that all hands are now in perfect trim,
with less sickness among them than
would be averaged if in camp at Camp

have gotten over all signs of real
homesickness and recovered from the
sore footedness that bothered so much
during the first few weeks in the

Fish and Game

The commissioners of Inland Fish
cries and Game have received from the
clerk of courts, Penobscot county,
fine of $50 paid in settlement of the
appealed case of State vs. Clayton
Towle of Bangor, for violation of the
inland fish and game laws.
This case originated on April IA,
1915. when Towle was apprehended by
Game Warden E. W. Ward of Milli-
nocket for having in possession 40
trout Warden Ward happened to be
on the train going from Norcross to
Bangor on that day and at Perkins
Siding Towle got on'the train with two
dress suit cases. AS the warden had
received complaints of violation of the
fish laws in that vicinity, he searched
the cases and found the fish above re-
ferred to. The offender was placed un-
der arrest and requested by the war
den to leave the train at West Seboeis
and 60 back to Millinocket with the
warden. Mr.. Ward went to the other
end of the car to look for another sus-
pected party and on looking back
found that Towle had gone. He hasten
ed back and went out on the platform
of the car just in time to catch him.
He was taken into the car and hand
cuffed; taken off the train at West
Seboeis and brought back to Milli-
nocket. The next morning he was ar
raigned before the Millinocket NUM-
cipal court and fined $3.50 and costs,
taxed at $3.50. from which sentence he
appealed to the supreme judicial court.
When the case came up on appeal the
commissioners decided in view of the
c{a In n9YficnlQr
stance that the ends of justice would
be served if the whole fine imposed by
the lower court was not fully paid and
recommended settlement of the case
for $50, which, as above stated, has
been recently paid.
