Abstract
THE Royal Society of Medicine mostly limits the record of its work to its own Proceedings and the medical journals; and it does well to observe this wise rule. But from time to time it receives some communication of the highest importance to the general welfare, and on such occasions it is mindful of its immediate duty to the public. It lately held a special meeting, at which Prof. Noguchi, of the Rockefeller Institute, demonstrated the results of his researches into syphilis, general paralysis of the insane, epidemic infantile paralysis, and rabies. None who heard Prof. Noguchi and saw the great crowd of physicians and surgeons listening to him could fail to recognise the profound significance of this occasion.
