Yellow Fever Germ.

The theory that mosquitoes convey
the disease known as yellow fever"
is many years old, but 1t was not I'm.
til the year 1895 that it was proven
to be true. During that year Major
Ronald Ross, working in India along
the lines of Sir Patrick Manson's the
DRY, demonstrated that mosquitoes OF
the genus called a%nopheles clarifer,
conveyed the disease. In 1898 ex-
periments in Cuba and other parts OF
the world established a similar con-
clusion. 1t is in consequence Of this
discovery that the dread disease Is
now being SO largely checked IN the
countries where it has hitherto been
so destructive Of human life.
