the animals and the procuring of the
material which not only prevents con-
tagion, but also cures the AFFLICTED. The
serum is injected into the body, as is
the virus used to prevent smallpox and
other malignant diseases.
The animals from which the serum Is
taken are vaccinated after being dosed
with yellow fever virus in quantities
several times stronger than is needed
to produce death. The effect of the
vaccine is watched, as are the disease
germs and the growth or reduction of
the fever The animals are selected
and carefully housed As the work
progresses the serum is removed and
after being examined under powerful
microscopes is prepared for use.
Until recently most OF the serum has
been prepared in other countries, but
now it is largely manufactured in the
United States. Several large drug coli
Germs have entered into the business Of
securing this valuable remedy TO kill
fever, and it is not uncommon on a
visit to the laboratories to see hum
dreds Of animals. including horses,
steers, rabbits and guinea pigs, care
fully housed for purposes of serum pro-
ductiCn and experimentation.
Dr. Sanarelli, the discoverer of the
new serum, has experimental largely
in the fever stricken districts Of South
America and has had ample opportun-
ity to test the effect Of his remedy on
human beings. He has been remark
ably successful. as many OF the towns
which had previously been visited by
the scourge and whose population has
been greatly depleted will bear wit
ness.
When the fever attacked San Carlos,
Brazil. during the early part of the
precent year. the medical men of that
country were at loss to devise means
to stamp out the disease. DR.. Sanar-
ELI visited the place when the fever
was at its height. and while it still
turks about the locality rev cases are
only reported at long intervals, and
the death rate has rapidly decreased.
The same thing occurred at the prisons

country, SO that an epidemic in a city
or the United States is no longer re-
garded as possible 1his, however, is
due In as great measure to the improv-
ed sanitary conditions of the cities and
towns were at different periods the fe-
yer ragged as to the recent discovery.
The last of the yellow fever cpl
denies to visit the United States was
that at New Orleans during the latter
part of last year. 1t not only apper-
ed in the Queen City of the Gulf. but
found its way up the Mississippi river
and along the Ohio, where several
cases We're found in the smaller toy. rs
on their banks. st. Louis was also
slightly infected, and matters were be-
ginning to take a serious turn. The
prompt action Of the city officials and
medical men stamped out the disease
before it got a strong foothold in the
towns along the rivers. New Orleans
suffered most. The new cases report
ed each day were increasing, and the
death list gradually rolled up until over
100 persons had succumbed to the fe-
yer. 1t was during this time that the
new anti-yellow fever serum, discover
ed by DR.. Giuseppe Sanarelli, an Ital-
ian scientist of some note, was exper-
imented with, and what might have
been plague greater than that of 1878
at New Orleans and some few years
later at jacksonville was averted with
| loss of comparatively few lives.
The new serum is known as anti.
maryl and 1t has worked marvels.
Since its discovery other material has
been found to act with considerable
success. In the fever stricken districts
of South America the new medium has
proved its worth, and many of the
towns and cities which for years have
been visited by the dread disease and
which have been depleted Of large sec
! tons of their population have been
freed to a considerable extent Of its
, ravages and made habitable. Dr. San
arelli has spent several years in the
cities of Brazil and the Argentine Re-
public studying the disease and reliev-
ing the infected people.

MOVING A YELLOW FEVER CAMP.

Before the army started for Cuba
large quantities of the anti-yellow fe-
Yer serum, as one>o of the most powerful
medicines is called, were manufactured
and sent TO the front, together with
many improved appliances for fumiga-
ton. Besides the drugs several of the
best known physicians who have made
a study of the dreded disease went
with the troops, taking with them a
corps CT we'll trained nurses.
Thus far the disease has been mainly
confined TO the troops in front Of San
tiago and in the valleys leading TO that
city. The other troops will be kept
apart from those in whom the fever
has been discovered, and with the adj

the heroes who fought before Santiago
