Don't Begin the Fall With Malaria

Malaria works as a parasite by
feeding on the energy corpuscles in
your blood. I. increases as time goes
on and since you get it in the sum

you feel tired, cross, run down, have
no energy, and are consti-

what a dreadful shock it was to
Jerry to hear a loud sniff just
above him and look up right into
the face of Bowser the Hound.
Poor Jerry! After all his trials
and troubles was this to be the end?
Do YOU wonder that just for
second he was too frightened to
move? Then he did the thing that
all his life he had been in the
habit of doing in times Of danger
he dived. At least that is what
he tried to do.
Alas! The water was barely deep

ing was quite out of the question.
He merely bumped his nose on the
bottom, and bumped it hard. Bow
ser the Hound saw at once that for
the first time in all his life he had
found Jerry Muskrat where he could
get at him.
Bow, WOW, WOW! Bow, WOW!
Wow, WOW, wow, WOW" roared
Bowser, dancing along the bank in
great excitement and threatening
to Jump down on Jerrys back.

to be abroad on the Green Mead

he on his part couldn't see them
If they happened to be about. Some
how the water in that little ditch
gave Jerry such feeling of con-
fidence that he forgot all his wor-
ries and troubles. It wasn't deep
enough to protect him at all, but
he didn't stop to think of that.
So, running and swimming, Jerry
hurried along toward the Smiling

Now Bowser was very we'll &C

cousin, Robber the Brown Rat, who
lived under the barn. Always Rob-

doing. So when Jerry whirled about

JERRY BLUFFS BOWSER THE

By THORNTON w. BURGESS.

When you are in place that's tight
At least pretend that you will fight.
No matter II you know right down
In your heart that you haven't
chance in the world, just pretend
that you are not afraid. This kind
of pretending is called bluffing, and
quite as often as not it fools those
who see it. Now to look at Jerry
Muskrat you wouldn't think that
he could or would bluff. But it was
by bluffs and nothing else that he
saved himself from Bowser the
Hound, and to this day Bowser
doesn't know it.
You remember how Jerry had
started along the drainage ditch
across the Green Meadows on his
way back to the Smiling Pool from
which he had been driven by the
great food. In places in that ditch
there was water enough for Jerry
to swim. When he couldn't swim
he ran. For the first time in days
his heart was light. He was on

straight at him and bit him on the
tenderest part of his nose. Bowser
yelped and fell over backward. Has.
tily he scrambled to his feet and
up on the bank. Then he looked
back. Jerry muskrat was glazing
up at him as if he were minded
to come up after him, which. Of
course, he wasn't. but couldn't quite
make up his mind to jump down in
that ditch again. He had been
bluffed by Jerry Muskrat.

could where he had to swim.
Splash! Bowser had jumped down
in the ditch right at Jerry's heels.
Then barking and yelping he started
after Jerry. Poor Jerry! If ever
there was a frightened Muskrat he
was that one. Not only was he
frightened, but he was almost with
out hope. What chance had he
against such a great fellow as Bow
ser the Hound? Moreover, he was
getting out of brath and tired. Sud-
denly great anger swept over him.

Sheriff Puts Lid,On
All Gambling In City
Issues Orders To Pick Up
All Persons Without
Visible Means OF Sup
port

Operators of gambling in Key
West were appalled, last evening
by an order issued from the of.
flee of Sheriff K. o. Thompson
that all games of chance of any
description being operated in the
city were TO close at once. and
this order was issued to include
every place of ifs kind in the
city.
Sheriff Thompson had nothing
to say as to the reasons why the
order was issued, but it is be-
lleved that the incoming group
of racketeers, card sharps and
professional short-change artists,
who have been operating in the
city very successfully, it IS said,
are the reasons this peremptory
order was suddenly issued.
Instructions have been issued
to the Sheriff's force with orders
to pick up every person in the
city whose actions are indicative
of being without employment and
no visible means of support, ar
rest them and charge them with
vagrancy.
One of these card sharps was
arrested Thursday night by Off
Ger B. j. Pierce, of the police
force, on complaint of two strang-
erS, who claimed they had been
robbed by this sharper, Jack b.
gait by name, wha WAS tried in
police court yesterday afternoon
The evidence educed at the
trial was considered sufficient to
warrant further investigation in
to the matter, and Judge T. S
Caro- said at the conclusion of the
hearing that he would give that
matter further consideration ano
would pronounce his findings
this morning.
Promptly at IL o'clock this
morning Judge Caro- appeared in
court and after taking his seat or
the bench called the prisoner tc
the bar and without prelimin,
aries said that the sentence of the
court was that the prisoner was
TO pay a fine of $3.50 or be con.
fined for go days in the city Jail
After the trial the judge was
seen at his home and told The
Citizen that there was no ques.
ton as to the guilt of Bogart ano
for that reason he had made the
penaly of his offense the limit as
provided by the law.
Seen later this afternoon sew
eral operators of bingo games ir
different sections of the city tolc
The Citizen that they had receiv.
ed orders to close their places anc
had done so, and they were con.
fident there would be no binge
games in operation in the city ir
