Abstract
THE investigation of poisons, both bacterial and animal, has been pursued with such enthusiasm in so many parts of the world during the past decade, and the public have been brought into such close touch with some of the practical applications which have followed in the track of these investigations, that the term toxin and anti-toxin, unknown in the days of Dr. Johnson's colossal dictionary, may now without exaggeration be said to form part of the vocabulary of every well-ordered household.
