Malaria Attacks Army.

The Annaies lie Medicine avs. on
the authority Of Deliile and his CO.
workers, That the epidemic of ma
laria that has affected the armies OPP
Grating in Macedonia forms, if not the
most important, at least one Of the
most important, epidemics known in
history. Not since the armies of
NerXes We're decimated by malaria in
that same region has there been a sit
uation comparable to that Of these
modern forces in the Macedonian val
leys and marshes. The extreme gray
ity of the infection. the early and
large proportion Of pernicious cases,
the apparent failure of preventive
doses of q~uinine. the prevalence Of
malignant tertian malaria and the fire.
quency Of hemoglobinuria were special
features.

INSTANT ACTION CALLED FOR
Wrangell, Alaska, Said to Be With
out a Resident Physician, and
That Won't Do.

Members Of the medical profession,
alert to its interests, should 20 out OF
their way to see that the doctorless
town of Wrangell, Alaska, is supplied
with 4 physician forthwith, that is. II
the void has not been filled within re-
cent days. Wrangell has been without
a doctor for some time. and is %announc-
ing that a horse doctor will do II the
regular kind cannot be supplied.
Every day that Wrangell enjoys ro-
bust health without 4 physician in its
midst is a potential nj to the
business of al the brethren of the pro-
fession. Some man with Il nose for
news is likely to bore into compare
tive death rates any day. How would
the brethren like Il read Il calm state
ment to the effect that Wrangell's
death rate has decreased s yer cent in
the last four months? And it might
easily happen. Alaska being Sc bloom
ing healthful. anyway.
How is anybody in Wrangell TO know
that he has appendicitis, or gallstones.
or impossible tonsils. or %adenoids, or
arterioscierosis. unless a resident sharp
is there to tell him?
There are n lot of people who will
fret and lose flesh If they are not quite
