HOW MALARIAL FEVER is
TAKEN.

How do the malarial parasites get
into the blood?
In one way only: Through the bite
of mosquito. Malaria is not ac-
quired by eating improper food, by
drinking bad water, by bathing in the
sun, or in any other way than by the
bite of mosquito. True, if one al
ready has malaria, that is, has these
parasites already in the blood, doing
thes things will develop it-'bring it
out"-so that he may have a malarial
attack which he could otherwise es-
cape, but only if he is already infec-
ted with malaria.
Do all kinds of mosquitoes trans
NIT malarial parasites to man?
No. Only Anopheles mosquitoes
carry malaria, and only some kinds
of Anopheles.
Are mosquitoes born with this
power of conveying malaria?
No. They acquire it only by biting
a man who has these parasites in
his blood The parasites are taken
then from man by a mosquito and
go back from the mosquito to an
started we do not know.
How then does malaria spread?
Exactly like yellow fever. A fe-
male mosquito of certain kind
feeds on a man infected with malaria
and sucks up blood with malarial
parasites in it. She can not convey
malaria to thoes whom she bites for
some davs "a week or mOre) after
this, but after waiting a while (the
reason for which will be told later)
she injects these parasites into other
men whom she bites and infects them
with malarial fever.
What, then, is necessary to spread
malarial fever?
Anopheles mosquitoes; malarial
parasites and healthy men. The
parasites may be either already in
the infected MOSQUITOES or in infect
ed men, from whom the mosquitoes
can get them by biting.

New York, Aug. 9.-Trading on
the curb exchange was fairly -ac-
tive today with the usual irregu-
,larities in the movement of prices
as between various groups of
stocks. Standard Oil of Indiana
held its place Of leadership among
the oil shares, opening up slightly,
and then reacting. In the after
noon fresh buying came into the
stock and brought about a substan-
tial advance. Vacuum Oil was al
so strong, but. on the other hand
Standard Oil Of New York and I'm
perial Oil of Canada went lower
and International Petroleum was
freely supplied at somewhat lower
prices.
The decline in Cities Service is
sues continued and there was profit
taking in the Independent oils, such
as Ryan Consolidated and New
England Fuel Oil. 1t was reported
that a new we'll had been brought
in on the property of the Colum-
bia Petroleum, subsidiary of
Southern States Oil, in the Texo-
homa field In Texas. This we'll has
an initial flow of 100 barrels a day
and it was also said that the COM
pany is drilling other wells in the
same vicinity.
Il was announced that the Mexi-
can Eagle Oil company's number
six we'll at San Geronimo field id
Mexico had been completed. Mu-
tual Oil, Carib Syndicate and Mer-
ritt Oil held steady.
In the miscellaneous section the
recent selling Of the rubber issues
appeared to have been checked ex-
cept in the case of Goodyear COM
mon. The stock made a new low
for the year at 81. Radio issues
held firm. Goldwyn Pictures, Phil

of wheat sold to exporters. The
price is believed to be about 31a

week. Weak foreign exchanges was
the cause OF the reduced bids from
abroad. Receipts are decreasing
but they are in excess Of require
ments. -
New low points for the season
were established in corn. Septem-

Domestic shipping demand was
slow. Receipts were fairly heavy.

New York, Aug. s.-The highly

drygoods market today. Prices
were uncertain, but extremely
light sales showed a decrease Of
one-eighth cent in print cldths and
sheetings. Some 3S1s inch 64x60's
went for Sssc. There was moder-
ate movement In sateens. The
speculative features of the cotton
market provided an effectual halt
to buying on large scale as pur-
