Before we turn to the practical demonetration I would like to refer to the contention of mataria with earth-cutting.

Ther: are thousands of people walking the streets of Hongkong to-day show ing no synaptoms of malaria, yot infective to mosquitoes through the crescents in their blood. In any crowd of coolies, therefore, it is almost a foregone conclusion that some of them are malaria-infected.

These exceptional parasites, which in the malignant type of malaria are crespatic in form, when observed under the microscope under saitable conditions, were found to throw off little rapidly moving whip like processes, which become detached and float free in the blood fluid. In 1894, Dr. Fatrick Manson enggested that as these cells only develop their flagella some time after the blood has been draws from the body, and never possess them at the time of buying the human body, this would probably pros to be part of an extra-corporeal cycle of the parasite, and hat these cells would be ful to have rouet, ing to do with the trans- mission of the disease from one person to nother. He further suggested that as the parasito lives only within the blood corpuscles, and appears in nine of the discharges, it must be carried by seme blood-enching insect, which fom its habits aud, the correspondence of its distribution with that of malaria he believed would prove to be the mosquito. The possibility of something of this nature being the truth had before been suspected, but it was Manson who definitely publicly propounded the theory, Major Ronald Ross of the Indian Medical Service sel to work to test Manson's theory, His method was to allow mosquitoes, which had been bred from the larval stage in his laboratory to secure that they should be free students, volanteored to spend the forer season tres of yellow fever, and we may any day there from any infection otherwise, to bite persons of 1900 in the most deadly spot to be found after have yellow fever landed on our chores. suffering from malaria, and then after vary in the Roman Camparas, with no protection And, as I have said, we have the appropriate ing intervals to search in the bodies of the against malaria other than the avoidance enlex tegmynt, ready to curry it from man insects thus fed with infected blood for evidence of mosquito-bites between subact and sunrise, to man, a mosquito which from its day-feeding of the presence or development of the parasite. the hours during which snopheles usually habits is more diffoult to reckon with than For two long yours he failed to find any trace feeds.
