CHICAGO NEW YORK Good Comes From Evil Millions of Americans will remember when the mos- | Quito carrying the malaria germ was regarded as an un-/ mixed evil and would have been considered a blessing if they had been completely eradicated, never again to ap- pear upon the earth. Had this been done, however, it now seems probable} that thousands of persons would have been denied the opportunity to recover from paresis, a disease which pro- duces insanity and, if unchecked, results in early death. The malaria-carrying mosquitoes enter the picture be- cause science has found that paresis may be cured by. subjecting persons afflicted with paresis to this malady.! A recent statement by the U. S. Public Health service, | as reported by the U. S. Daily, a newspaper given over to reviewing the activities of the federal and state gov- ernments, says: “Insane patients, suffering from paresis, which also is termed ‘general paralysis of the insane,’ and which is fatal if not treated promptly and ef- ficiently, often are cured completely when they are infected with malaria, it was explained. The mosquitoes will be bred in large numbers by the Service to infect such sufferers with malaria, it was said. “Numerous demands for the malarial mosqui- toes already are being made by institutions where cases of softening of the brain are being treated. According to the explanation, a Pub- lic Health Service laboratory located in the Southern malarial belt of the United States will be selected as the breeding place of the insects. The following additional information was made available at the Service: “After the mosquitoes have matured and have been infected with malaria they will be transport- ed to Washington, D. C. The insects will be carried in a thermonal jar which wil? keep them in a low temperature while being transported. From Washington the mosquitoes will be distributed regularly throughout the country among the in- stitutions which already are making demands for them. Special attendants will accompany the insects during transportation, regardless of dis- tance. “The breeding of the insects already has been carefully planned. One female mosquito pro- duces about 3,000 eggs, which hatch about evenly into males and females. All of the mosquitoes will be kept in netted cages. “After the eggs have hatched and the larvae have become adult insects, the fully grown mos- quitoes must be infected with malaria. This 1s accomplished by allowing them to feed on the blood of an infected human being. Mésquitoes require about two weeks to develop malarial in- fection, which is acquired by only about 24 per cent of them. “The use of the mosquitoes for malarial treat- ment of softening of the brain must be confined te hospitals, as a precautionary measure proposed by the Public Health Service in conjunction with its mosquito service. Private cases outside of such institutions may not be treated under the rule “Dr. Wagner-Jauregg of Vienna discovered in 1927 the value of treating paresis, or softening of the brain with malarial infections. He found that certain ‘spirochaets’ in the blood which caused paresis were destroyed by the effects of malarial fever on human beings. “A large number of State institutions have put in requests for the cultivated mosquitoes, for which the demand at present far exceeds the supply. “The mosquito of the genus Anopheles of the species Quadrimaculatus has been selected as the one to be used for the malarial infection of paresis patients. Actual results of the treatment have shown that many persons suffering with softening of the brain are cured completely, and that others are much improved by the malarial { { | 2.60| 8nd training in some endeavors but when careful drilling; {of furniture requires that the principal construction | says.

To offer a critique upon the work of the Madrigal club in advance of its performance would be impossible and unfair to all concerned, but we feel safe in predicting that the offering tonight will be eminently satisfactory and will more than repay Bismarck citizens for the time and money spent in attending it. 1 Hidden Values Among the many ways in which the government touches the business of the country is one wholly approved by businessmen. This is the activity of the Commerce De- partment in making available to industry and to citi- zens generally the latest and most accurate information on various commercial subjects. Recognizing the business of operating a home as the biggest and most complex in America, the department has issued a booklet on how to buy furniture. It tells the home-owner everything he could want to know about intelligent purchasing of household equipment. The reason for issuing the booklet is set forth in a statement the gist of which is this: “The very nature features be hidden.” It further asserts that conditions! have not been such as to “give even the most cautious consumer all the information he needs for really intelli- gent buying.” The essence of a good many problems is contained in the statement that the “principal construction features” are hidden. The essential qualities of either a person or a@ product may be glossed over with paint or pretense. Most intelligent persons keep that fact in mind when doing & great many things besides purchasing furniture. If it is essential to know that a chair is strongly built of good materials, it is equally as advisable to be sure, in making a friend, that he has within himself the qual- ities which make for loyal friendship—and that you have those qualities also. For friends are fully as important and as necessary to well being as chairs. Mellon Is Hopeful Secretary of the Treasury Mellon doesn't break into public print very often but when he does he may be credited with really having something to say. ‘When, in an address to bankers attending the conven- tion of the International Chamber of Commerce, he Stressed the fact that there is no quick and easy method to obtain prosperity and that we cannot get it at the ex- pense of some one else, he made a statement which will bear repeating. It is so obviously true that it would be shopworn if it were used as often as its merit would justify for, as Mr. Mellon says, nations and individuals gain nothing by re- fusing to face the facts. One of the most encouraging things about the present business situation is Mr. Mellon's prophecy that the situation will work out all right. His warning that the nation must not “lose its sense of perspective” is particu- larly timely, for it sounds the, present-day watchword of progressive business leaders. ‘Two years or more ago Mr. Mellon uttered warnings against the direction in which the nation was headed. With all the power and authority at his command he strove to divert the tide of speculation which he saw was sweeping the country toward the rocks and shoals of difficult times. His years of experience and his counsel were largely unheeded, but who can deny that he was right. He was accused of being a prophet of gloom, but events swiftly showed him to be a true prophet. He is no more appreciated by the public now than he was then, perhaps, but his statements of warning uttered at that time speak for themselves. Now that the veteran secretary of the treasury sees light ahead it is to be hoped that his counsel will be given more credence. Without joining the Pollyanna school of thought, Mr. Mellon indicates his belief that the country is bound to right itself and that, after the pres- ent transition period, it will emerge better and more pros- perous than before. He is careful in choosing his words but one cannot escape that idea from reading what he ‘This viewpoint will be more welcome than the pessi- mistiec attitude which Mr. Mellon took two years ago and it is to be hoped that it will be given more weight by the public at large. Mellon's record shows clearly that he knows whereof he speaks as well as that he is a faithful public servant. The least his enemies can say of him is that he has stood his ground when the fighting was the hardest and has neither exulted in victory nor flinched in defeat. He has consistently opposed treasury raids of whatever nature, even though he knew that some of them were fore-ordained to success. But there is no hiding the fact that many persons who opposed his views on most of these questions will eventually admit to themselves, if not to Mr. Mellon and the public, that be was right on most treatment. “Malaria fever itself, after it has been intro- duced into the system of a patient, is cured easily by the administration of quinine.” Since malaria fever no longer is the dread menace to human life and happiness in the tropics which it once was regarded as being, this latest development of sci- ence gives us an example of the old saying, “there is some good in the worst of us.” In the case of the malaria- carrying mosquito the bad seems to have been eliminated, or at least adequately controlled, and the present good now overshadows the former evil. Truly, “God moves in a mysterious way His wonders to) perform.” Good Music For Bismarck Bismarck tonight has the privilege of attending a mus- ical performance which, undoubtedly, will be recognized. as the banner event of the current season. It is the performance at the city auditorium of the Madrigal Club of the University of North Dakota, an organization widely known within the state and enthus- of the matters of this nature which have been in issue during his long term as treasury secretary.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Lost C: e Question: Mrs. F.K. asks: “Can a missing cartilage be renewed in the knee of a woman over fifty years of age? The condition is due to a long standing case of arthritis, and her bodily strength. has been considerably impaired.” Answer: It is not likely that the cartilage will ever be restored to nor- mal. The best thing to do is to get rid of any rheumatic toxemia now ex- isting and after all soreness has dis- appeared the knee should be exercised to create as normal a movement as possible. Almonds Question: O. G. H. asks: “Will you please tell me if almonds may be recommended for any specific purpose @ the diet?” Answer: The almond is a nut con- taining a large amount of protein and oil, and is a very valuable food. It may be used specifically in place of ineat, but there is no particular dis- order for which it is indicated. Red Patch Around Heart Question: Mrs. W. B. P. writes: “My husband is troubled with a large red paich around his heart. He claims his heart aches at times. The patch is much deeper in color after he has tired himself out from walking and working hard. After he has rest- ed for awhile the red mark goes away. Could you tell me what the trouble is? Is it considered serious?” Answer: It is not likely that the red patch appearing on the skin has anything directly to do with the heart. ‘The circulation in the skin over the heart does not change because of heart trouble any more than any oth- er part of the body. Your husband may have some heart derangement. If this is true, after resting the cir- c.tlation becomes more normal, mak- ing the red patch disappear, but it is coincidental that the red patch ap- pears near the heart. BATTLE AT LENS On May 8, 1917, the Germans launched a violent counter-attack against the British line near Lens. This struggle was part of the great Battle of Arras which lasted nearly a month, Philip Gibbs, war correspondent, colorfully describes the fighting here as follows: “I watched this battle of gnns from the old trenches looking across to Lens and giving a wide sweep of the battle front from the field of Loos to the ground below the sloping shoulder of Vimy Ridge. “This ground was the storm center of the world’s war last night just after dark, and before the coming of the moon, lights rose from the Ger- man lines. These rockets rose high ++. Some of them burned for a min- or more and the woods and trenches beneath them were illumi- nated with sharp white lights, One remained hanging high over Lens like a great star. “All through the night the battle of the guns went on and the sky was filled with the rush of shells and the moon veiled his face from this horror which made hell on earth. But in the little wood a nightingale sang all through the night [BARBS | o Catalonia, it seems, is the big pain in Spain, * * * You've got to have plenty of “pull” to make the college crew. e** * Ball players who pull boners sel- dom pull a bonus. ** * Breaking a date these days seems quite up-to-date. * * * Gangsters who think they're tough probably are only suffering from hardening of the arteries. * * * Cosmo Hamilton, British novelist, says the modern young man is af- flicted with tender skin and metal freckles.
