THE sTILLmAN CASE

Twenty years hence. the two. inno-

Stillman divorce case will be pointed
out in public and, if their ears are
sharp, will hear whispers behind their
backs.
No matter what the outcome Of the
Stillman case no matter what is prov

viii pay the price for their parents.
They may develop into honorable

scandal is a tar that never washes en-

the Stillman scandal but it is a fact
as hard as agate fact that can't be

IN the Stillman case there Is a
mighty lesson and a grave warming

DECREASE OF MALARIA In
STATE OF MISSISSIPPI
prepared by Or. ". $. Leathers.)

There is perhaps no more important
problem in the State of Mississippi in
disease prevention than in the control
and eradication of Malaria. II is q
well known fact a person can only
contract malaria through the bite of
a mosquito Of a certain type and this
mosquito usually flies only at night.
It is then clear that person becomes
infested with malaria, as a rule. by
the bite Of the apopheles between sun
set and sunrise. The danger from in
fection is greatly reduced by living in
a screened house and having al least
part Of the porch screened. II all
people who contract malaria would
disinfect their blood, by taking quinine
continuously for a period Of two
months, this one thing would greatly
reduce the disease each year.
1t is of interest to note that malaria
has decreased in Mississippi during
the past six years both in cases and
deaths. In 1915 there were 1870
cases Of malaria reported BY the phys
icians Of the state. In 1920, 1876
cases. While the deaths from malaria
have decreased from 1892 in 1915 TO
VIZ ~ ASlUs AHtEc 10 no icdbDl why
people should be infected with this
disease If the proper precautions are
taken to prevent IL. There are two inn
portant factors that should be observ-
ed in the prevention Of malaria: First,
avoid the bite Of the mosquito especi-
ally at night or between sundown and
sunup; second, take proper treatment,
# infected, for period Of two months
IN order to thoroughly sterilize the
blood, or, in other words, destroy the
parasites in the blood BY the use Of
quinine. Many people make the mis-
take Of taking patent medicines or
quinine tonics instead Of using pure
quinine for treating this disease. A
person who contracts malaria should
consult a physician and take the treat
ment continuously until the blood is
proven to be negative. This usually
requires about two months treatment

JARRATT HOTEL ROOF
DAMAGED BY FIRE FRIDAY

Last Friday morning fire was dis
covered in the roof Of the Jarratt Ho-

had badly damaged the greater part
of the roof. The fire department did
excellent work, finally putting out the
blaze before it had time to spread to
the lower part of the building.
1T is estimated that the damage
done both by fire and water, the great
er part being done by water. would
reach close to S2500. Fortunately
there was enough insurance to cover
all losses.
Large tarpaulins have been spread
over the roof to keep out water in case

ONLY FIVE ASSESSMENTS
REMAINED UNPAID MONDAY

Possibly the smallest sale of real
estate for the taxes due thereon ever
sold in the county was that Of last
Monday. When the date upon which
the sale was to be made arrived there
were only five assessments which had
not been paid. Two of these went to
the state, the others beng bought in by
individuals.
In this connection, we notice that
Tunica county sold over 5000 acres Of
lands for the taxes due.
