TUBERCULOSIS.

IMDIUNISING TACCINIE.

DR. NATHAN RAM'S STEY FORWARD.

A highly interesting and encourag ing address on a macias of making people immune from tuberculosis, of consumption, was red before the Royal Society of Medicine in London by Dr. Nathan Faw, M.R.CP., SF., President of the Tuberruksis Society of Great Britain.

We have reluctantly to admit," be said. " that we have not yet got a "pecific remedy which will ffectivels destroy in the bly the tuberelo bacilli which are the cause of the disease. Immunity to resist attack by virulent bacilli can be go by producing an artificial active in- munity in the tissues to the bacillus itself."

Dr. Raw said he hei that human and bovine tuberculosis are separate fand distire; infections, and firmly believes that the one form confers immunity in the key to the other form. The two varieties of bacilli will not exist together in the body,at the same time. In 10 he got pare Japanese Yam Owing to high cultures of tubercle Eaciili-human, rates prevailing in Japan as compar- bovine, and chicken.

RIDDEL OF MIGHTY RUINS

A party of Japanese scientists and officers who have returned to Tokyo from an expedition to the mysterious rains in the Namatol Peninsula, on the east coast of Porape, South Sea Islands, state that there are indica tions that these islands were peopled by Japanese many centuries ago. "The castle at Namato," sas a member of the party in the Japan Times and Mail, ".epresents the toil

of thousands of mer in age when Bo other stone bildings existed

within hundreds at miles!

BELIEF IN & BEMEDY,'

The experiments conclusively prove that similent tubercle bacilli can be made non-poisonous and non- disease causing to highly susceptible animals, and." he continued, in my opinion we have in our hands a remedy against tuberculosis which will be of the greatest value not only in the cure of the disease but also in its prevention by protecting the human body against attack.

The results of my work on animals conclusively prove that immunity against infection is produced by the injection of attenuated bacilli, and it is reasonable to suppose that the same thing will hold good in the human.

-What-is-probably the only official women's detective force in the country has been established in Lancashire by the Chief Constable of the County Police, and has proved a great success.

A girl detective-inspector is in charge of the department, and she and bher assistants work in collaboration

with the men on every crime that is re- ported.

Even the most important cases are handled by the gid detectives, two of whom did useful work in investigating the Sandhills murder, of which the Director.ex-officer, Frederick Helt, was found.
