WHAT HAS KOCH FOUND
n "a 4 q, L. a


Sir Professor Koch has rot discovered a new method
Of treating tuberculosis "a, the public suppose. lie has
simply followed up the experiments Of other scientists
and ply scians in testing different antseptcs to obtain
elective bacillicidc treatment.
The history of the experiments the life, growth
and destruction Of the tuberce bacilu, constitute, one
of the mos; interesting chapters in medicine In losi
Koch discovered the pathogcnic bacterum Of tubecu
losis-a small rod like body. sbout onc-thrd long
a. redblood eorpuscle 1t detected by The
peculiar property of not being affected by ordinary
methods OF staining other bacteria but spending only
,pccal stunning liquids Cultures were easily made
aud incubation, from them regularly reproduced the
disease incubation into the iris gave rise TO ubercles
there. and these ahcrward extended to other organs
The true cause OF tuberculosis thu stood revealed.
The problem at present demanding solution is, how
to destroy the bacillus without njurng the human
body. Koch claims have solved II BY inOcula'E
phihi,ical patients with "A metallic salt. That the
tubaicc bacillus j, endowed with great vitality IS
proved by the fact that tubercuiar spuium may be
dried and kept for month, without losing lis virus and
that uhcrcle haoll have been detected still unchanged
-pecmen, Of lungs kept for nne months and under
going decomposition. Already it ha, been ascertainef
that steam .iccually destroy, fresh tubcrcuar spui UNI

with pure tubcrcular matter into animals, cause com

and ,ulphate Of qunlne reduce the NUMBERS Of Dacli

results
These baciliicide, may be administered through the
air passages. through the blood either by medicine,
taaou 30 the stomach and a.mentaN canal, or in
l,.ted under the -iu or by injections into the lungs
themselves. Koch dppcaro To prefer n0cuitlon o. he

These points are. therefore, established; that THO
