A MODERN MAN.

THE STORY OF DR. ROBERT KOCH.

DR. KOCH, the man of the week in London, is not only the most famous living bacteriologist, but was also the centre of one of the world's great tragédies.

►

Nearly eleven years ago, in the latter half of November 1890, the word went round the world like a lightning flash that a Berlin scientist had discovered an infailible cure for consumption. Up to then Dr. Koch had been comparatively unknown outside scientific circles; but in a faw days he became world famous, From every corner of the earth consumptives rushed to him. Hectic checked, big-eyed, emaciated, they poured into Berlin. Men at the last stages of the disease died in railway carriages on their way to him. Stricken souls barely able to walk a yard had themselves carried, and Berlin became, for a time, a veritable Pool of Siloam

It was pitiful and terrible, and there was no man who would more gladly have stayed the rush than Dr. Koch himself. He had not will load during September and October, sail desired this. He had sought his utmost to ing about 25th October. For Freight, apply to

In other words, he daily ran the risk of the must horrible death. In tracking disease this quiet German has shown a heroism and fear- /

Living in the country, he grasped the oppor- tunity of mastering the most terrible rural disease, authrax in cattle. Anthrax is supposed to have been one of the ten plagues of Egypt, and has been in modern times one of the greatest Curses of farmers. Some years previous to this Dr. Davaine bad partly located the bacillus of anthrax.

Koch took up the matter where | Davaine left it off He localized and subdivided the garm, and was able oven to editiváto it. The publication of his discoveries created a great sensation in scientific circles, and Koch

at once became a man of mark among bacterio logists. All the world knows how Pasteur: carried Koch's discovery still further forward, and how our farmers to-day are benefitting from it..

One ultimate result of this was that in 1880 Koch was called from his country practice to be the assistant of Professor Finkleburg at the aristocratic University of Bonn. This is not the place to describe minutely all his micros
