hands, he mas treated since 1876 no less
than 12,7S2 cases. OF course, such fig
ures are the veriest falsehood. Equal

otherwise would have died of puerperal
fever.
CDR. Charles Bell Taylor F. R. G. ST.
one of the best known and most sue
cessful Of English doctors, says: AS
to the discoveries by vivisection that
have benefited the human race, 1t has
been proved over and over again that
Pasteur's inoculations, both in anthrax
and hydrophobia, have done infinite
harm and not the slightest good Pas
teur is doubly inconsistent in his claims,
for he himself has confessed that so to
| IS persons out of every 100 actually bit
ten by known rabid dogs are in no dam
ger.
THAT Pasteur does not prevent ny
drophobia is most positively proven by
the fact that of those who have under
gone his treatment so many have died
Of that disease. That he does actually
give it is proven by the additional fact
that so many Of them have died of
'hydrophobia Of the laboratory which,
as I have said, is a disease manufactur-
ed by Pasteur at his institute, and
the symptoms of which are different
and distinguishable from those of SIM
pie rabies. 1t Is further proved by
such facts as the following: Two men
are both bitten by the same dog-one

very slightly and through the clothes,
it being recognized in such a case as
the latter, even If the the dog is really
rabid, little or no danger follows. The
man badly bitten on the bare flesh
avoids Pasteur and his treatment and
lives through the disease. The man
slightly bitten through his clothing
takes the Pasteur treatment and dies
within few days, not of rabies, but of
rabies of the laboratory. What strong
er case can be found?"
"What effect does the existence of
Pasteur institutes usually have on the
number of deaths from hydrophobia?
sit is a significant fact that where
ever Pasteur institutes have been es-
tablished the number of people bitten
by mad dogs is claimed to increase
obviously in order to give sufficient
business to the newly established in
stitute to justify it's existence. I know
of no Pasteur institutes outside of Par

unless the little Office in Tenth street in
New York may be called one, and some
few trifling places of that kind. al
though there may be others.
Professor Friseh of Vienna makes
the despairing confession: The great
hopes which the medical world has
placed on Pasteur's discovery have not
been realized
'Tn 1881 the st. James Gazette pub
lished a description of Pasteur's kennel,
adding the surrounding country is
made dismal by the bowling of M. Pas

acre or more of ground, in which then
stood that Inferno of the canine race.
"At the time of Lord Doneraile's
death, as as equel of the Pasteur treat
ment, both Professor Grancher and DR..
Roux said that the original NEGOTIATIONS
were perfectly efficacious, and Lord
Doneraile certainly was not told that
they would keep off hydrophobia for
only four or five months, which is what
Pasteur himself subsequently claimed
to have all along known.
Thomas NJ. Dolan, NJ. D., author of
Rabies lor Hydrophobia, says: The
deaths after his preventive incubation
are the saddest corollaries we could
have on the falseness of the basis on
which his prophylactfc rested
"Constantin James, NJ. D., of Paris,
said: AS for the incubation, I con-
fess that 1t insuires me with a repug-
nance that nearly amounts to terror.
For, in short, supposing myself to be
the bitten person, how should I go to
have inoculate in my veins torrents
of the very same virus that had TAX
en- all possible pains to destroy to the
