"Rudyard Kipling recently told an Americen visitor in London that when he wrote The White Man's Burden he had America in mind, not Great Britain," writes Lothrop Stoddard ér. the N.I. World's Work.
**America's isolation bas eased. She is responsible with the other nations who helped whip Ger- Louny for the orderly and safe.com duet of the work. She must taki upon her own shoulders a large share of the burden. It this means addi. tional privileges it means also vastly augmented responsibilities.
Upon England and America to gether reats the chief duty of making and keeping the world a decent place
which to live and work."

To prevent Malacis; therefore, it is of the Arst importance that the blood should be kept rich and healtby. And to cure Malaria it is necessary to build up the blood, to provide it with's frest supply of red corpuscles in place of thom which the malarial microbes have destroyed, and thus to restore to is the powar to repel and overcome the disease.
