You should know that malarial
fever can he controlled and prevent
ed; that there are several methods
Of prevention that may be USED
against malaria.
First: by getting rid of anopheIes
MOSQUITOES, which cause malaria.
Second: by not letting these mo-
s1uitoes get to well people to bite
them.
Third: by so treating men having
malarial parasites in their blood
that they will not infect the mosqui-
to.
Fourth: by so protecting healthy
people that even if they are bitten
by infected mosquitoes they will not
develop malarial fever.
Anopheles or malarial mosquitoes
may be destroyed by destroying their
shelters and breeding places. They
live mainly out of doors, and as they
cannot bear the Hot sun they shelter
themselves in the brush and high
weeds all day and come out at dusk
to feed. All brush and high weeds
near the house should be cut down
I The brush about their breeding
places should also be cut down. The
less brush left to shelter mosquitoes
the better, for if they are exposed
to the hot sun many Of them die.
The breeding places of malaria
mosquitoes may be destroyed in two
ways.
First, by draining or filling VI
| the pools and marshes in which they
breed; second. by oiling such pools
as cannot be drained or filled. OIL
ing the pools prevents breeding be-
cause it kills the larvae. Try this or
an old water barrel full Of "wigglt
| tails" and see what happens.
Oiling should be done once II
twelve or fourteen days. Use enough
oil, or kerosene, to form a layer al
over the surface so that you can SCI
! it.
IF there is much grass in the poo
the oil will not form layer al
over it, IF the pool is large the vino
will often blow the oil over to ONT
side so that the surface on the othe1
side is not covered.
On large pools and grassy pools
oil cannot be depended upon. Nal
arial mosquitoes are not commonl!
found in barrels or in artificial con
| tainers. Malarial mosquito larvae
have other enemies besides man. I'M
! type Of minnows that are so abun
dant in some Of our small sluggish
streams eat large numbers of them.
Where there is grass or brush II
the water frequently the fish canno
get to the larvae. Big fish do harn
because they eat the minnows.
The second method of preventing
malaria consists of preventing ac

=: The TQnqle -:

Yesterday. when the butler was
lifting the glorious black Chinese
work of art back to its place, he
dropped the almost priceless treas
urc. and. it broke into Il hundred
pieces. Among the ruins were found
the pearls.
II seems that on the inside of the
vase there are two narrow, shallow
paris had fallen and lodged secure
ly; and when the men put their
hands down in the vase, they failed
TO find these pockets.
The vase was an extremely fine
specimen Of the famous black porce-
lain of the Ming dynasty, and eX-
cccdingly valuable: but even at the
cost Of its destruction, Mr.. Pre-
is very glad to have solved the mys-
terry of the pearls.
The finding of the jewels in the
Prescott house proves almost con-
, .lusive'y that Commiss Toner Laid
avs theory is correct. This theory
that Miss Ellington, hearing ii
noise downstairs, came down. AT
his time the thieves had not gotten
INTO the house. With rare presence
IF mind Miss Ellington hurriedly re-
moved the pearls from the safe,
vhern she knew the burglars imme-
diatelv look, and dropped them in
the vase.
1t was then that the thieves made
their appearance, and were probably
torturing her to make her give up
the combination of the safe when
sydney Carlton heard the noise and
came downstairs.
