Nothing could more strikingly illus trate the importance cf small things than the large role which is now at- tributed to the mosquito in the etiology of some of the most serious and wide spread diseases to which the human race is subject. It is truly said that what prevents the successful colonization of many tropical countries and what throws the greatest obstacle in the way of civilization of and good government in vast regions of central Africa is not climate, not distance from home and not unfriendliness on the part of the | natives. The obstacle is malaria, and now we find that the prevalence of ma laria, so far as man is concerned, de pends on the mosquito, and that this pestilent little insect, in addition to ir- ritating and annoying, is the means by which the poison of malaria is propa- gated and distributed. For years back botanists have known the important part played by birds in the scattering of seed and of ins the distribution of the pollen of plants, and it seems not unlikely that pathol- ogists will have to recognize in a much ots in ~ egree than has till lately bees large part taken by the snbor forms of life by which we are led—our cattle, our horses, out li squitoes, sui ger dinat syrrount dogs ap g cats, our flles, our m and perbaps even our fleas—in dis tributing disease from map to man, and, as is stated in regard tothe mosquit and malaria, in deciding whether the extension of our empire over great areas of the globe's surface shall be possible or not.-— Hospital. Puanctuation. What a great difference in tha mean- ing of asentence a misplaced comma can make! Take the following, for ex- ample: ‘‘James, my husband is a very sick iman.’’ **James, my husband, is a very sick man.”’ The following bit of perverse punv- tuation was perpetrated by an English compositor. What the anthor meant to say can be ascribed by a rearrangement of the punctuation marks: **Ogasar entered on his head; his hoi met on bis feet; armed sandals upoo his brow ; there was a cloud in hisrigh# hand; his faithful sword in his eye; an angry glare saying nothing, he sat down.’’ — Pittsburg Chronicle - Tele graph. i Ai ANE fhe Spanish Oath. fn Anstria a Obristian witness is sworn before a crucifix between two lighted candles, and, holding up his right band, says, ‘‘I swear by God, tia Almighty and All Wise, that I »vill speak the pure and full truth, and noth- ing but the truth, in answer to anything I may be asked by the court.”’ Jewish witnesses, while using the same words, add to their solemnity by placing their hands on the page of a Bible on which is printed Sse third rommandment, A Belgian witness swears to be vera- tious in these words, ‘‘I will speak the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth; so belp me God and all the saints.”’ The Spanish oath is more elaborate. The witness, kneeling on his right knee, places his hand on the sacred book, and, being asked by the judge, ‘* Will you swear to God and by those holy gospels to speak the truth to all you may be asked?’ answers, ‘‘Yes, I swear.’’ Thereupon the judge says, ‘‘Then, if thus yon do God will reward you, and if not will require of you.’’ In some parts of the country the ceremony is different. The witness forms a cross by placing the middle of his thumb on the middle of his forefinger, and, kissing his thumb—a practice which would probably be very familiar to some Eng- lish witnesses—exclaime, ‘‘By thiscross | I swear!’’—Law Notes. rO CURE TOOTHACHE IN A MINUTB Use NERVOL.
