WAR ON THE MOSQUITO—
The organisation of a National So
ciety for war to the death on the mos-
(wire is of more than passing interest
to every citizen of the Norwaiits. In
inventive genius and capacity for busi-
ness and work, the citizens of Connec-
Iicut easily rank first. We often won-
der how much raster would have been
the accomplishments of this noble race
if they had never been bitten by the
striped leg mosquito, who fills ihtl
blood with malaria that destroys nerve
force. it becomes every good citizen
who has the good of his state and the
greatness of his posterity at heart to
lulu hand and soul in the work of
freeing the, borders of Long island
Sound from mosquitos. it seems quite
certain thouflr. in spite of all that'hu‘
manlngenuiiy can do. that the brruarrd
bite of the mosquito will wake the
baby ten generations from now. The
best we can do while engaged in this
great war, is to take Dr. Dick's Medi-
cine to get rid of malaria until "Strip
ed Legs" are no cure.
