teryals. Hearing a rumor that, John
d. Rockefeller of the United States had
offered an immense prize for the dis
covery of consumption cure, he con-
suited Consul Smith, who began a sys-
tematic observation of the cases of
several patients, especially that of an
English lady who had been given UP
by the doctors and was about to leave
for England to die.
She, however, submitted to ZagO-
! ranSki's treatment. At the end of a
week the proportion of tuberculosis
bacilli in the saliva had been reduced
ten per cent, and at the end of six
weeks the patient had gained twenty
pounds. From being unable to walk
across the room the patient regained
her normal strength and activity, and
the cure appears to be permanent.
ZagoranskiS treatment, according to
Mr.. Smith, consists merely in the
drinking of his specific in large guam
titles, together with life in the open
and the observance of a careful dietary
Zagoransh says that, so far as he
is able to observe, the treatment does
not renew wasted lung tissue, but ar
rests the disease. AT whatever stage
of the disease the treatment is begun

the system clean to be built up by
careful diet.
Prince Oldenburg, a pfilanthropist of
st. Petersburg, who maintains several
hospitals in Russia and big sani-
tarium in the Caucasus, has offered to
place three beds at Zagoranski's dis
posal in a st. Petersburg hospital,
where he can accurately observe the
results of the treatment

were made public early in the year
and already they have taken practical

Mr. Rockefeller gave an initial gift

of 100000 at the disposal of the board
for immediate use, and the execution
of the entire scheme may mean the out
