MALARIAL DISEASES.
How to Avoid Them and the Se
^ rious Consequences of Neg
lect. _
“Fix me up something to knock the
malaria, doctor,” remarked a sallow
faced, sickly looking man, entering a
prominent physician’s office the other
day.
The doctor stepped to his medicine
case, took down a cotiple of bottles, mixed
a preparation which he handed to the
J patient with the customary advice to
‘shake well and follow directions,’ and
resumed his seat.
“Such cases are frequent,” replied the
doctor in answer to a question. “The
warm days and damp, chilly nights are
certain malaria breeders and are most
serious in those who have neglected to
keep their stomach, liver and bowels in
good condition. Such persons are full
of the impurities on which the malarial
germ thrives, and it is from this class
that typhoid fever, pneumonia, Bright’s
Disease, small pox and yellow fever claim
j lost of their victims whenever these dis
: ses are prevalent.
The proper way to guard against the
? alarial germ and the serious diseases
lich follow it is to get into good condi
tion by taking a reliable remedy that
will keep the bowels clear and the liver
healthy, and to continue with it at fre
quent intervals during the sickly season.
A lose of Prickly Ash Bitters three or
four times a week will do all of this, be
sides stimulating the digestion, improv
ing the appetite and keeping the bodily
energy at the highest pitch. t
Prickly Ash Bitters is known every
where as a system tonic and bowel regu
lator. It not only removes all traces of
malarial poison from the system, but
tones up the vital organs, gives new
strength and vigor, makes the body
strong and the brain active.
"Prickly Ash Bitters is the best all-around
medicine for the family I ever used. During the
past ten years I have always kept it in my house.
Whenever any of my family show signs of mala
ria, kidney trouble, indigestion or constipation
a few doses is all that is needed to make then
well and hearty again.—W. H. McWilliam

and they told the Queen that
the firms that sent tne $5,000
checks had discharged enough
employes to make up more than
the amount in wages. Moreover
they were putting up gaudy no
tices that all their men win
joined the army would have
their places kept and would suf
fer no loss of pay, there was a
little trick in the reckoning that
meant a clear profit instead of a
loss.
For example: A man in one
store wras earning $20 a week.
He went into the army as a vol
unteer captain and received
$12.50. All the store did was
to persuade his associates to do
his work, as well as their own,
in the name of patriotism, while
the pay office contributed $7.50
to make the pay run the regular
scale of $20. They thus saved
$12.50 a week. As they each
had a few hundred army con
tracts their patriotism was
profitable.
The scheme did not appeal to
Queen Mary. So she drafted a
note of refusal to the firms that
had sent the checks and had her
son sign it. The note said that
in view of the distress that was
occurring and was likely to ex
tend in the silversmiths and
other departments of their busi
ness, it was desirable that chari
ty begin at home and the a
mounts indicated on the checks
be devoted to their own em
ployes.

The affair has been handled
