"Since the death OF Prof Bechamp. in
1908, at Paris. at the advanced age OF
ninety-two. his works have been assidu-
ously studied by competent men and
translated into English from the French,
with a view to early publication. And
these men affirm that Bechamp declares
that the foundations of the germ theory
are insecure, set on shifting sands, and
that the noted author, in a terrific ar
raignment, in which he calls the theory
the greatest Stiffness of the age. demol-
ishes its claims, and consequently those

"Bechamp does all this In q purely sci

ments extending over a period Of about

doctrine or science of life-and as such

and Lille (among the wine makers, brew
cries. and distileries) contributing many

THE vital point OF difference between
the. doctrines Of Bechamp and Pasteur is
| that of the difference between the germs
of life and the germs of death. Bechamp
showed that diseases are born of us and
in US. and Pasteur held that diseases are
produced by parasites, of which the
germs, created morbid by destiny, pene-

phere. The discussion OF this point is
perhaps, best carried on in Bechamp's
