But that distemper is too beneficial to them not to expose to all their resentment the hardy wight that should undertake to put an end to it. Perhaps, if I live to return, I may, however, have courage to war with them.
עמוד 488 - It consists of small, irregular spots, of a bright red color. In the centre of each spot, there is noted, in strong daylight, a minute bluishwhite speck. These red spots, with accompanying specks of a bluish-white color, are absolutely pathognomonic of beginning measles, and when seen can be relied upon as the forerunner of the skin eruption.
עמוד 735 - ... purpose of comparison with previous results, the conclusion reached is always the same, namely, there has been an average reduction of mortality from the use of antitoxin in the treatment of diphtheria of not less than...
עמוד 94 - Although she was ill seven days before the special symptoms of smallpox appeared, the eruption in those who took it from her, or from others who did so, commenced at the end of the third, or beginning of the fourth day. The editor of the journal in which this case is inserted, refers to two which recently occurred in the Eastern Penitentiary of Pennsylvania, in which the " separate system
