incubation Against Yellow Fever.

One of the very latest theories of
incubation to prevent disease is the
alleged discovery of we'll known
physician Of Mexico-Dr. Carmona
of the cause or causes Of yellow
fever and his peculiar preventive
to protect a person against this
dread disease. Eminent Ameri
can and European physicians have
for many years been investigating
this important matter, with the
view of discovering some way Or
some plan whereby the mortality in
certain parts of the world from gel
low fever might he lessened. This
Mexican physician claims that he
las discovered the cause ofthls dis.
case to be a microscopic fungus,
and he asserts that by inoculating
this fungus in the blood persons
can be protected from yellow fever
in the same way as vaccination is a
security against smallpox. Wheth-
cr his plan is feasible and will ac-
complish the greatly desired results
time and careful investigation will
alone determine.
