DANGER GREATLY REDUCED

Berlin, Feb. 17.-Professor Adolf Ba-
serin Friedrich Hospital for Children. pub
fishes remarkable results of a new dis
covery. which provides the medical world
with a serum cure that has stamped out
scarlet fever in a greater percentage OF
cases among children than has ever be-
fore been attained.
Professor Baginsky modestly disclaims
the credit for the, discovery OF the serum
which has been named antistreptococcus,
and which has been applied with un-
doubted success at the hospital under his
charge.
The discoveries now made public are
the result OF twelve years uninterrupted
research and experiments.
In that period 701 patients have been
subjected TO the antistreptococcus serum
treatment, with the result that the char
acter OF scarlet fever has been definitely
established and its germ classified with
bacteria.
The percentage OF deaths has been re-
duced to such an extent that only per
cent of scarlet fever patients succumbed.
Prof. Baginsl<y said: II began my in
vestgations in 1891. My object then was
TO determine the nature Of the disease.
The only credit which appropriate in
the discovery is that proved that scar
let fever has microbic origin. known
as streptococCus.

Herr Aronson produced the antstrepto-
coccus with which our researches were
continued.

Prof Baginsky's statistics were consid-

as a medical discovery. His record or

treated was far below the normal rate OF
those who succumb TO scarlet fever, even
when treated by the most modern ana

to send a friend bunch of roses as a
Christmas greeting, anu at the same
time he ordered a wreath sent to the
house OF an acquaintance whose sis

The man is sympathetic soul, and
he was plunged in woe when he went
to the florists to leave his order be-
