Transmission Of Warts,

Recent experiments show that the
popular belief that warts are com.

writer. "Inoculation of healthy tissue
with blood obtained from n wart will
cause the growth of similar ex.

growths contain an ultramicroscopic
germ to which is due the transmission
from one person to another. At all
