A few years ago, before we knew that malaria was always caused by the bite of a mosquito, people used to attribute attribute every fleeting indisposition to "a touch of malaria." We know now that we cannot have a touch of malaria malaria without the touch of the insect that carries it; but the phrase is a convenient one, and the belief in it dies hard. It is quite possible to mistake other other things for malaria, and when there is any difficulty in making a diagnosis diagnosis a microscopical examination of the blood should be made. The characteristic characteristic malarial parasite will be found if it is that which is making the trouble. The sufferer may have typhoid fever or tuberculosis or some septic condition of the blood. If so, it would be a pity to waste valuable time making guesses at a diagnosis that the blood examination. would make certain at once. Malaria yields to proper treatment and is not often fatal, especially in nontropical countries. The disease is most likely to attack the very young or the very old, those who have ne had time to 'become acclimated to a new place erf residence, and those who live in hard circumstances--such as the poor and soldiers in trenches.- Malaria is one of the disorders that we know how to prevent. We must destroy the mosquito that carries it, and until that is done we must try to keep it from getting at human beings. beings. The Anopheles mosquito usually usually bites between sunset and sunrise, sunrise, and it is at night, therefore, that we must be most careful. The best way is to have oiir houses and porches thoroughly screened. Sleeping in the open air it a royal road to health, but not if we share the open air with the Anopheles. It is not enough to screen the windows, for the insects may gain access somewhere else, and then the Takes Thirty-Six Bites. A good deal at cheap fun was poked poked at Gladstone some years ago in consequence of a statement which he made, that before swallowing his food he invariably gave every, particle 86 bites, says London Answers. But it was evident, even to the humorists, that the "Grand Old Man." owed much of his splendid vittality to his careful mastication, .and hia words caused many furiously to think. By the manner in which people who ought to know better- "bolt" their food, one might, fairly, infer that they believe their stomachs to be constructed constructed on the same principle as that of a lobster, and contain teeth to facilitate the process of digestion. Experience has shown that when food is properly masticated about, one- ; third less is required than when it is ! insufficiently dealt with by the teeth What happens is that by, effective chewing much more nutriment is extracted, extracted, and therefore less food need be eaten, a desirable result nowadays. ❖ ABOUT m GERMANS USE BLOOD AS FOOD. A Professor Explains How It May Be Made Palatable. In the Kolnische Zeitung great prominence is given to the researches of a physician named Grotthoff, who has been investigating the properties of the blood of slaughter cattle and its suitability for human food. The Kolnische Zeitung has insisted since the outbreak - of the war that blood ought to be employed for this purpose. It now states that blood, according to the best physiologists, is the purest, strongest, and most nutritive food to be found in nature. Privy Councillor Kobert, the eminent Rostock professor professor of physiology, says that it is the most valuable food we have, and that if some process were invented by which it could be rendered free of certain defects and made palatable it would be an enormous addition to the national stores of food. Dr. GrotthofFs process is not very lucidly described, but we gather that the blood is fermented for two hours until the watery particles have, been removed. What is left is of the" consistency consistency of beef and may be made perfectly dry by (gentle pressure. It " keeps " well, and is without taste or smell. Moreover, there are no pathological pathological germs in the mass. Grott- hoff's chief merit lies in his preservation preservation of the albumen and other food properties in the blood. The blood can also be reduced to powder and packed in tins. Grotthoff thinks that the best use to which the blood can be applied is to .mijc it in powdered form with sausages, bread, biscuit, cocoa, and chocolate. He adds the naive remark that the heaviest eaters feel that a moderate mixture of blood in their food gives them a feeling of repletion. Can You Make Gravy? It is really amazing how many fairly fairly good cooks fail in the simple art of j gravy making, who, instead, serve up. insipid greasy brown water that real- ly -spoils the meat. Yet it is the easiest thing in the world to make well? and add immeasurably to the pleasure of a meal. Real gravy is the juice from the meat which runs out in the course of cooking; W it is a very valuable part of the food and should not be wasted on any account. To make these juices really - nice, seasoning must be added, and in.some instances a slight thickening is correct. correct. Gravy for roast beef, mutton or j lamb should be unthickened, and the best way to make it is the following; I Put any trimmings, sucl\ as - gristle 1 or odd rough pieces from the meat, into into a small pan and simmer while the meût is cooking. They will make very good stock. When the joint is cooked lift it from the baking tin on to a dish and keep it hot in the oven, i - - Then pour the hot drippings from the tin into a clean jar. Do this very steadily, so that all thé brown part remains remains in the tin. Put the tin over the fire and pour into it the. cupful of hot stock you have got ready, or any-other you may have. If you have no stock you must use boiling water. Then, with an iron spoon, scrape well over the tin, and you can also scrape the bars of the The Best sugar for the sugar ; is BRIGGS' FLY MATS F MCE 5$ ARE CLEAN I NO STICKINESS ALL DEALERS I GLC.Briggs & Sons HAMILTON » .Its purity ànd "fine granulation, give it the highly sweetening-power. sweetening-power.

Strain Fashions in Summer Fabrics. Summer finds us very much inclined towards stripes, in linens '.pongees, tussahs, voiles, crepes and the various various imported and domestic novelty cottons, The ground of these materials materials is usually white, or the na- I tural crash or linen color, and the j stripe, either a vivid or a soft tone, according to the purpose of the frock, or the fancy of the wearer. These striped materials are usually combined with a plain fabric, corresponding with the color of the stripe, or the ground. On the Russian blouse models, and the other designs, Norfolk, and the various pepium models, now so well liked, the striped silk or linen is used for the coat, and the plain for the skirt, or vice versa. © McCv.-X.

At night they would pain dreadfully ; now they feel fine all the time. It was like a miracle to me." A lady who used it says : "The atmosphere atmosphere seemed hazy with or without glassed, but after using this prescription for fifteen days everything seems clear. I can even read fine print without glasses." It is believed that thousands who wear glasses can now discard them in a reasonable reasonable time and multitudes more will be able to strengthen their eyes so as to be spared the trouble and expense of ever getting glasses. Eye troubles of many descriptions descriptions may be wonderfully benefited by following following the simple rules. Here is the prescription prescription : Go to any active drug store and get a bottle of Bon-Opto tablets. Drop one Bon-Opto tablet in a fourth of a glass of water and allow to dissolve. With this liquid bathe the eyes two to four times daily. You should notice your eyes clear up perceptibly right from the start and in- flammation will quickly disappear. If your eyes are bothering you, even a little, take steps to save them now before it is too late. Many hopelessly blind might have been saved if they had cared for'their eyes in time.
