Rabbits Rendered Immune Against Ten

New York Evening Post: Some in
teresting experiments have recently
been made with regard to the venom OF
reptiles. A mixture of the venom OF
three snakes whose poison was consid-
cred most deadly was employed and
One of these animals received by In.
lection into vein of the ear five times
the amount usually considered fatal
and died in the course Of twenty min
utes. In the meantime rr. Chalmette,
the investigator of these phenomena,
injected two cubic centimeters OF Sc
rum into two rabbits and in few mo-
ments gave them the same dose that
had proved fatal to the first. The Sc
rum protected the animals perfectly.
and there was not the slightest trace
Of the action of the poison to be OBJ
served. Two new rabbits were then
used, one of which was inoculated with
the serum. Ten times the fatal dose
was given, with the result OF killing,
within three minutes, the rabbit which
had not been rendered immune by the
serum, while the other was in no way
affected. Professor Chalmette has
stated that the results of the action OF
reptile poison could be calculated with
considerable precision. Knowing the
weight of the person or animal, 1t was
possible to state how much poison
would destroy and how much serum
would save life. The serum Is now be-
ing sent to India. and 1t has been
found to be stable in quality and able
to last any length Of time.
