INocuLArloN FOR SNAKE BITE.
Dr. Csimette Finds That . Lcthai Dose
Destroys the venom's Eject.

Many readers Of Mr.. Hamlin Gar
lands recent story OF the Moli Indian
snake dance doubtless wondered how
IL is that the Indians apparently suffer
no Inconvenience from the bites OF rat.
tlesnakes, for unquestionably at times
the performers in the dance are bitten.
The late Capt, John G.. Bourkc, who was
the first intelligent white who wit.
messed the Moki snake dance and kept
the record OF il, thought that these In-
dians possess antidotes we had not dis
covered. To-day the real study Of al
titoNines has commenced. and Il is by
DIR. A. Calmtete. chief of the Pasteur in
stitute of Lille, that the properties OF
an anti-veDomous serum have been eX-
nctly explained. DIR. Phisalix's expert
nents show that under certain precau-
tions man or an animal may suffer
hardly any Inconvenience from the
venom of viper. Remarkable results
lave been obtained with the venom OF
the cobra. When two milligrammes OF
the dried cobra poison in solution were
injected into a rabbits ear the animal
was dead after 12 minutes.
But when a rabbit was protected by
former extremely weak solutions of
the cobra poison. and then the same
strong infusion OF the venom was in
iected into IL, the animal was not in
convcnienced. Dr. Calmctte's invest-
cations began with the study OF the
nature and venom of many different
kinds of snakes. Whence does the snake

son in particular gland. or course
there may be changes in this poison
differing from that found in the orig
inal source-the blood Of the snake it
self. We know that the pig and the
monRoose are not affected by snake
bites. and it is natural to suppose that
in their blood there is something which
makes them immune. Following the
Roux method, DR.. Calmette took n
horse, because this animal shows n
natural resistance to suakcbites. The
horse was inoculated with lcthal dose
of cobra poison and the animal wns not
seusibly inconyenienced The injec'
tions were continued for three monthc
by which time the horse could stand =
dose of 80 times the lethal strength
The blood of the horse had acquired int

of this horse serum. II was found to bt
sufficient "to cure man suffering from
the bite of a deadly reptile" Mor'
curious was this: When snake was in

not suffer when bitten by any Other
