TYPHOID INCUBATION.

Few people were inclined to beileYe
IA the efficacy of typhoid "vaecina-
ton" when it was first introduced BUT
the entirely satisfactory results "atch
have followed it's use have indeed vim
dicated the diseoyerer in his CLAIMS.
The Richmond Times-Dispatch says,
editorially.
A most remarkable and interesting
report on the efficacy of antityphoid
inoculation. as demonstrated by ex-
periments conducted by DR.. Vincent.
an eminent French epideTmiologist,
has Just been made. 1t is hardly go
ing too far to say that Dir. Vincent
las virtually established the absolute
efficacy of inoculation as a preven-
tive, and it is certain that his report
ought to disabuse any mind, lay or
professional, Of prejudice against "ty-
Ihoid vaccination"
The experiments were carried on
under the most disadvantageous con-
ditions, being made upon soldiers of
regiments stationed on the Allegro
Moroccan frontier-~a notoriougly I'M
healthy and feyer-breeding region
and among a population ignorant Of
the most elementary rules of eleaali-
ness, with whom the contamination of
the water supply amounts to habit.
The Wright serum and one prepared
by Dr. Vincent himself were employ
cd, so as to test their relative values
Two hundred and eighty-three men
were inoculated 127 with the Wright
ard 154 with the Vincent serum.
Among the former a single case of
typhoid very slight one-develop-
ed, giving a ratio of s per 1000;
amoag the latter there were no cases.
Another result, and a most signiii-
cant and important one, pears upon
the prejudice alluded to, in that it
disproyed a popular belief that inocu-
latlon for typhoid is followed by a
negative phase, in which the sub
jects are more thaa ordinarily prone
or susceptible to infection. ''Not a
case of this kind it is stated, occur
red; and, on the other hand three
cases in an early state of infection
at the moment of incubation develop
ed only into a mild form OF typhoid
BY contrast, and accentuatiag con
yincingly the efficacy of the preveh-
tive, DIR. Vincent shows that among
1882 soldiers of European origin, who
were not inoculated, there occurred
during a period of three months, Ill
cases of typhoid and 1874 cases OF
febrile intestinal disturbalces-a rate
Of 1l5 per 1000.
What with pure water and milk and
incubation as typhoid preye1tiyes,
indeed would it seem that sanitary
and medical science is in position to
trample under foot and exterminate
the typhoid terror!
