THE THEORY OF VACCINATION.-Prof
Tyndall suggests that, just as the sol
Inay be go effectually robbed of some
essential ingredient by one abundant
crop as to be incapable of producing an
other, so in the human system a parasi
tic disease may 50 completely exhaust tht
blood Of some ingredient necessary to thu
growth and propagation of the parasite
that the production of a second crop il
fatal or considerable quantities may bt
impossible. Ii would thus appear thai
protective vaccination or incubation is
simply the intI seduction into the blooC
OF weakened and comparatively harm
less disease g g.Tms to consume the ma
terial which might become food for SIM
lar germs in more vigorous and dat
gerous condition.

eases. and he has never yet heard OF tts fall

Some years ago one Of Mr.. lrLAND's fam
lsborers bruised his leg. Owing to the bad
etste Of his blood, an ugly scfofulous swelling
or lump appeared on the injured limb. Hor-
ribls itching of the skin, with burning and
darting pains through the lump, made life
almost intolersble. The leg became snor-
nously enlarged, and running alesrs formed,
disehsrging great quantities Of erta,sly
offensive matter. No treatment was Of sny
avail until the man, By Mr.. LELAsp's direc-
tion, was supplied with Ayes SARsARA-

healed the sores, removed the swelling, and
completely restored the limb to ~.
