IS DEATH NECESSARY.
"A European Scientist Says it is Not
Proven To Be So

NEW YORK, June "a special to the
Sun from Paris says: The announcement
last December of startling discoveries by
Professor Metchnikoff of the Pasteur In
stitute of series of lymp-.s designed to
check decay in the human body and in
definitely prolong life led to exaggerated
reports which he desires to correct. 1t Is
perfectly clear after conversation with
the professor that he is on the track of
a most valuable discovery and it is clear
at the same time that, as he says he is
"a man of science and not a charlatan -
Professor Metchnikon permitted the Sun
correspondent to read an advance copy
OF his pamphlet, Review of Some Works
on Senile Degeneracy."
IL deals largely with the causes of Sc
nile decay resulting in death. Refer
ring to the established belief that death
is an inherent attribute of All living
things, Professor Metchnikoff says that
biologists have sought in vain for any
proof Of this. He points out We ssmann's
development Of the idea of immortality
OF unicellular animals aud plants which
are reproduced indefinitely by repeated
division. Wessmann holds that death
originated in polycellular organisms.
Professor Metchnikoff enters fully in
to the atrophy of certain cells of old peo-
pie and brute animals and experiments
made on the latter by infusion of serums
TO check decay. Metchnikoff's scheme Is
briefly, to fortify the weaker cells
