We may first note that it is not necessary, as is often thought, to examine the blood at any par- ticular time, but it is very necessary that the patient should not have taken quinine previously. Even five grains of quinine may so diminish the number of parasites as to make detection a laborious task, and a negative result under these conditions is not conclusive. In examining the slide it is a very convenient method to begin at the edge of the film and to work systematically towards the ' tail' Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Stephens, John William Watson, 1865-; Christophers, S.
