The Infusion of Blood

This blood infusion is becoming in teresting. The papers tell of woman who sold some of her nutritive fluid for $50. It was pumped into the veins of another woman who was dying of something very similar to the dreadful beri-beri of East India. The polite name of the disease is endocarditis. This is inflammation of the endocardi um. But what is the endocardiuml The transparent lining membrane of the heart.
 There was a celebrated doctor who said he could cure anemia by an injes ton of few ounces of rabbits blood He preferred the nutritive fluid of little Molly Cottontail because Molly is the mildest of all creatures. He once tried the blood of bull on a patient and the result was general breaking of china and other things when the victim got well.
