BIG STOCK OF SERUM

Fighting the Diseases of

the War

THE Pasteur Institute of Paris is

| better prepared than ever for its task of fighting the diseases which war brings in its train.

During the last war the Instituto supplied more than 6,000,000 dears of sorum against various diseases in France alone, at least half of which went to the Allied armies fighting on French soil. Another, million Goss were sent to Italy, 18,000 to Serbia, 70,000 to Belgium, 40,000 to Humania, and 800,000 to the American Army and Red Cross,

Tetanus (lockjaw) often results from shellfire wounds. During the and German offensive of March April, 1918, the Institute was de- livering 20,000 tuber of anti-wtonus serum a day to the armies.

Typhoid is another infection to which men are exposed when as- sembled in large numbers under service conditions. In 1914 nearly all serving French soldiers had been compulsorily inoculated against ft. The Institute's preparedness
